38 WARNING
● Failure to observe control lamps and warn-
ing messages can result in serious personal
injuries or damage to your vehicle.
● The engine compartment is a dangerous
area. Carrying out work in the engine com- partment, i.e. checking and filling service liq-
uids, can lead to injury, scalding, burns and
fires. Therefore the corresponding warnings
must always be observed
››› page 132, En-
gine compartment. Handbrake 
If the
 warning lamp lights up, the hand-
br ak

e is applied. Additionally, driving the ve-
hicle at speeds exceeding 6 km/h (4 mph) for
at least 3 seconds produces an audible warn-
ing.
The informative display indicates:
Release the handbrake!
Brake system  The warning lamp 
illuminates if the brake
fluid level is too low or if there is a fault in the
ABS system.
The informative display indicates:
Brake fluid Instruction Manual!
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and

Instruments and warning lamps
Coolant level and temperature If the warning lamp
 (blue) is lit up, the en-
gine h a
s not yet reached its operating tem-
perature 1)
. Avoid high engine speeds, hard
acceleration and subjecting the engine to
high loads.
If the warning lamp  (red) is lit up or flash-
ing, the c

oolant temperature is too high or its
level is too low.
The informative display indicates:
Check coolant! Instruction Manual!
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine, check
the coolant level ›››
page 138 and refill if
nec e

ssary ››› page 138.
If the c
oolant is situated in the prescribed
area, the high temperature may be due to a
fault in the cooling system fan. Check the ra-
diator fan fuse and replace it if necessary
››› page 165, Changing fuses in the engine
compartment
.
If the warning lamp  (red) remains lit up,
despite both the coolant level and the radia-
tor fan fuse being in correct condition, 
stop the vehicle!
Go to a technical service. WARNING
● Take care when opening the coolant reser-
voir. When the engine is warm or hot, the
system is pressurised – Danger of burns!
Wait for the engine to cool before opening
the cover.
● Do not touch the fan. The fan can switch on
automatically regardless of whether the igni-
tion is switched on. Power steering 
If the
 warning lamp is illuminated, there is
a fault in the power steering.
The power steering system functions with re-
duced power steering effect.
Go to a technical service.
Stability Control (ESC)  If the control lamp
 flashes, the ESC is
working.
If the  warning lamp illuminates on igni-
tion, the ESC system may have switched off
due to technical reasons. Turn off the ignition
and turn it on again. Upon switching on the
ignition again, if the warning lamp has switched off, this means the ESC is function-
ing correctly again.
If the
 warning lamp is illuminated there is
a f au

lt in the ESC.
The informative display indicates: Report No.: electronic stability control (ESC)
or Report No.: Traction control system (ASR)
Go to a technical service.
Further information ››› page 108, Stability
system (ESC). Note
If the battery is disconnected and connected
again, the yellow warning lamp  lights up
when the ignition i s

switched on. This warn-
ing lamp must switch off after covering a
short distance. Traction control system (ASR)
 If the control lamp

flashes, the ASR is
working.
If the 
warning lamp illuminates on igni-
tion, the TCS system may have switched off
due to technical reasons. Turn off the ignition »1)

page 39.
In vehicles fitted with an informative display
››› page 43 the system can be adjusted so
that

certain data is not shown. WARNING
Always keep your attention on driving! As the
driver, you have the full responsibility for the
safety of traffic. Note
● If the second speed in mph (km/h) is dis-
played, the current speed in km/h (mph) is
not displayed on the screen. Memory
Fig. 26
Multifunction display. The multifunction display has two automatic
memories. The selected memory is displayed
on the screen
››› Fig. 26 .
The c urr

ent journey data (memory 1) is al-
ways displayed when the number 1
appears
on the display. When number 2 appears on
the display, the total distance travelled is
shown (memory 2).
Depending on the equipment package, the
memory is selected by:
● briefly pressing the B button on the lever

ent journey memory (memory 1)
The current journey memory collects data
from the moment the ignition is switched on
until it is switched off. If the journey is contin-
ued
within two hours of switching off the ig-
nition, the new values will be added to the
existing trip recorder memory. The memory
will automatically be deleted if the journey is
interrupted for
more than 2 hours.
Total distance travelled memory (memory 2)
The total distance travelled memory collects
journey data from any number of individual
journeys up to a maximum of 19 hours and
59 minutes and 1999 km or until 99 hours
and 59 minutes and 9999 km in cars with an
informative display. The memory will auto-
matically be deleted if one of the named val-
ues is reached, resetting the data collected.
Unlike the current journey memory, this
memory is not deleted, even when the igni-
tion is switched off for more than 2 hours. Note
After disconnecting the battery, all the values
stored in memories 1 and 2 are deleted. 39

Operation
Resetting service interval display
The service interval display can be reset only
after a service message or pre-warning has
been displayed in the general instrument
panel display.
To reset the display, it is advisable to visit a
technical service, to perform the following ac-
tions:
● reset the display memory after performing
the applicable inspection,
● record the information in the Maintenance
Programme,
● place a sticker on the side of the instru-
ment panel in the driver area indicating the
date of the next inspection.
The service interval display can be reset by
pressing the 6
››› Fig. 24
›
›› page 30 button.
In vehicles equipped with an informative dis-
play the service interval display can be reset
from the menu, Settings ››› page 44. CAUTION
We advise against resetting the service inter-
val display yourself, given that this action
could upset service intervals, and as a result,
lead to faults in the vehicle. Note
● Never reset the display between service in-
tervals as this could lead to erroneous indica-
tions.
● After disconnecting the battery of the vehi-
cle, the service interval display values remain
stored.
● If the general instrument panel is changed
after a repair, the correct values must be in-
put in the service interval display. This opera-
tion is carried out by a specialised service.
● After resetting the display with flexible
service intervals, the information will be indi-
cated in the same way as vehicles with fixed
service intervals. Therefore, we recommend
that a SEAT Authorised Service resets the
service interval display, who will do so cor-
rectly using diagnostics equipment.
● For more detailed information, please con-
sult the Maintenance Programme. Communication
Steering wheel controls* General information The vehicle includes a multifunction module
