Emergencies
●
If the anti-theft wheel bolt is overly tight-
ened, this could damage the bolt and the
adapter. Note
● The set of anti-theft wheel bolts or the
adapter are available from authorised SEAT
dealers.
● Please observe the relevant local legal reg-
ulations when changing the wheel. Preparation work
Some preparation is required before chang-
ing a wheel:
– If you have a flat tyre, stop the vehicle as
far away as possible from moving traffic.
The surface must be horizontal.
– All vehicle occupants should leave the ve-
hicle . Vehicle occupants should wait in a
s af
e place, e.g. behind the roadside crash
barrier) while the wheel is being changed.
– Switch off the ignition and engage neutral
or move the selector lever on the automatic
g

earbox to position P.
– Apply the handbrake firmly.
– If t

owing a trailer, unhitch it. –
Take the vehicle tool kit ››
› page 150 and
the spare wheel ››› page 150 out of the lug-
gage compartment.
Wheel trim Removing
– Place the hook from the vehicle tool kit on
the reinforced edge of the wheel trim.
– Insert the box spanner through the hook,
supporting it on the tyre and remove the
wheel trim.
Fitting – First press the wheel trim onto the wheel at
the cut out designed for the valve. Then
press the wheel trim on both sides in the
direction of the valve so that it fits correctly
in place around all the perimeter. CAUTION
● Press down by hand, do not hit the wheel
trim! Knocking it sharply, particularly at
points where the wheel trim has not yet been
inserted, could result in damage to the wheel
trim guiding and centring elements.
● Before fitting the trim on a steel wheel at-
tached with an anti-theft wheel bolt, make
sure the bolt is in the hole in the valve area
››› page 154, Anti-theft wheel bolts*. ●
Where trim is fitted at a later date, ensure
enough air inflow is guaranteed in order to
cool the brake system. Wheel bolt caps

Advice
Wheel bolts The wheel bolts
are m atched to the rims.
When installing different wheels, e.g. to fit
light alloy wheels or wheels with winter tyres,
it is important to use the correct wheel bolts
with the right length and correctly shaped
bolt heads. This is essential for a secure fit of
the wheels and for proper operation of the
brake system.
Changing a wheel If possible, change the wheel on a level sur-
face.
– Pull off the hub cap ›››
page 151 or the
wheel bolt covers ›››
page 151.
– First loosen the anti-theft wheel bolts and
then the other wheel bolts ›››
page 152.
– Raise the vehicle until the wheel to be
changed is no longer touching the ground
››› page 153 .
– Remo

ve the wheel bolts and place them on
a clean surface (cloth, paper, etc.).
– Take off the wheel.
– Lift the spare wheel into position and tight-
en the wheel bolts lightly.
– Lower the vehicle. –
Tighten the wheel bolts firmly in diagonal
sequence with the box spanner and then
the anti-theft wheel bolt ››› page 152.
– Replace the hub cap and/or the bolt cov-
ers. Note
● All bolts must be clean and turn easily.
● Never grease or oil the wheel bolts!
● Note the direction of rotation when putting
on a tyre with a directional tread pattern
››› page 144. After changing a wheel
Tasks that must be carried out after changing
a wheel:
– Place the wheel with the defective tyre in
the spare wheel well and secure it using a
special bolt ›››
page 146 .
– Put

the vehicle tools back in their storage
location.
– Check the tyre pressure of the newly fitted
s

pare wheel as soon as possible.
– Have the tightening torque of the wheel
bo

lts checked as soon as possible with a
torque wrench.
– Have the flat tyre replaced or ask an Official
Service about the possibility of repair. Note
● If you notice that the wheel bolts are rusty
and difficult to turn when changing a wheel,
they must be replaced before having the
tightening torque checked.
● Drive carefully and at moderate speeds un-
til the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
has been checked. Loosening and tightening wheel bolts

ed in the vehicle tool kit.
Tyre repairs TMS (Tyre Mobility System)* The Tyre Mobility System is stored in a box
under the carpet in the boot.Using the Tyre Mobility System you can relia-
bly seal tyres damaged by foreign bodies,
provided that cuts or punctures are no larger
than approx. 4 mm in diameter. Do not re-
move the foreign bodies, e.g. bolts or nails,
from the tyre!
The tyre must be repaired immediately.
The repair made using the Tyre Mobility Sys-
tem
under no circumstances replaces
perm
a-
nent
tyre repair and should only be used to
drive to the nearest official service.
The Tyre Mobility System kit shall not be
used:
● If the wheel rim has been damaged,
● when the outside temperature is below
-20 °C (-4 °F),
● on slashes or punctures larger than 4 mm,
● if the sidewall of the wheel has been dam-
aged,
● If you have been driving with very low tyre
pressure or a completely flat tyre
● If the best-before date on the air can has
expired WARNING
Read and observe the safety warnings ››› in
Introduction on page 150.
● A ty r

e filled with sealant does not have the
same performance properties as a conven-
tional tyre. 154

Emergencies

compressor may heat up during the filling
process. Risk of injury!
● Do not place the hot flexible tyre filling
hose or hot air compressor on top of flamma-
ble materials. Risk of fire!
● If the tyre cannot be inflated to a minimum
pressure of 2.0 bar (29 psi/200 kPa), then
the tyre is too badly damaged. The sealing
product is unable to seal the tyre . Do not
continue driving and obtain professional as-
sistance. CAUTION
Do not use the air compressor for longer than
8 minutes at a time. Risk of overheating! Be-
fore using the air compressor again, leave it
to cool down for several minutes. 156

Emergencies

driving!
If the tyre pressure is less than 1.3 bar
(18.8 psi/130 kPa):
–  Do not drive on! The tyr e cannot be suffi-
ciently filled using the tyre repair kit.
– See professional assistance.
If the tyre pressure is greater than 1.3 bar
(18.8 psi/130 kPa): – Correct the tyre pressure again to the cor-
rect value (see inside of the fuel tank flap).
– Carefully drive to the nearest specialised
workshop at a maximum speed of 80 km/h
(50 mph).
Jump-starting Introduction If the engine fails to start because of a dis-
charged battery, the battery can be connec-
ted to the battery of another vehicle to start
the engine. Suitable jump leads are required.
Both batteries need to have nominal voltage
of 12 V. The
capacity (Ah) of the back-up bat- t
er
y should not be notably less than the
drained battery.
Jump leads
The jump leads must be heavy enough to car-
ry the starter current and must be fitted with
insulated battery clamps. Refer to the instruc-
tions given by the manufacturer.
Positive cable – usually red
Neg

ative cable
– usually black WARNING
● A flat battery can also freeze at tempera-
tures slightly below to 0 °C (32 °F). Do not at-
tempt to start the vehicle with a frozen bat-
tery. Risk of explosion!
● Please note the safety warnings referring to
working in the engine compartment
››› page 132.
● The non-in s

ulated parts of the battery
clamps must not be allowed to touch. Addi-
tionally, the jump lead attached to the posi-
tive battery terminal must not touch metal
parts of the vehicle. Risk of short circuit!
● Do not connect the negative lead to the
negative terminal of the discharged battery.
In the event of sparks when starting the en-
gine, the explosive gas given off by the bat-
tery could catch fire.
● Position the jump leads in such a way that
they cannot come into contact with any mov-
ing parts in the engine compartment. ●
Do not bend over the battery. Risk of acid
burns!
● The screw plugs on the battery cells must
be screwed in firmly.
● Keep sources of fire (flames, lit cigarettes,
etc.) away from the battery. - Risk of explo-
sion!
● Never use the jump leads on batteries in
which the electrolyte level is too low. Risk of
explosion and acid burns. Note
● The vehicles must not touch each other, as
electricity could flow as soon as the positive
terminals are connected.
● The discharged battery must be properly
connected to the vehicle electrical system.
● The jump leads should be checked in a spe-
cialist vehicle battery shop. 157

onnect the other end of the black jump
lead X to a solid metal component bolted
to the engine block or to the engine block
itself of the vehicle with the flat battery.
Do not connect it to a point near the bat-
tery A .
6. Position the leads in such a way that they cannot come into contact with any moving
parts in the engine compartment.
Starting
7. Start the engine of the vehicle with the boosting battery and let it run at idling
speed. 8. Start the engine of the vehicle with the flat
battery and wait 2 or 3 minutes until the
engine is “running”.
Removing the jump leads
9. Before you remove the jump leads, switch off the dipped beam headlights (if they
are switched on).
10.Turn on the heater blower and heated rear window in the vehicle with the flat battery.
This helps minimise voltage peaks which
are generated when the leads are discon-
nected.
11. When the engine is running, disconnect
the l e
ads in reverse order to the details
given above.
Connect the battery clamps so they have
good metal-to-metal contact with the battery
terminals.
If the engine fails to start, switch off the start-
er after about 10 seconds and try again after
about 1 minute. WARNING
● Please note the safety warnings referring to
working in the engine compartment
››› page 132.
● The b att

ery providing assistance must have
the same voltage as the flat battery (12V) and
approximately the same capacity (see imprint 158
