Please observe the following indications
››› page 35, Coolant level and temperature
.
The coolant temperature can be reduced by
switching on the heating. WARNING
● Adjust your speed to suit the road and traf-
fic conditions.
● An electrical installation that is connected
incorrectly or by non-specialised personnel
can prevent the connection of the current to
the trailer and cause faults in the operation of
the electrical system throughout the entire
vehicle, leading to accidents and serious in-
jury.
● All electrical work must be carried out only
by specialised services.
● Never directly connect the trailer electrical
device to the electrical sockets of the reverse
driving lights or other sources of electrical
current. CAUTION
● Avoid corners, and sudden and sharp brak-
ing.
● Once the trailing arm has been removed,
place the corresponding cover on the hole of
the fastening point. This prevents dirt from
entering the hole – see the trailer system as-
sembly manual. Note
● In the event of frequent journeys with a
trailer, we recommend also having the vehi-
cle inspected in between the service inter-
vals.
● When connecting and disconnecting the
trailer, the handbrake must be applied.
● For technical reasons, trailers with LED re-
verse lights cannot be incorporated into the
vehicle anti-theft alarm system. Towing bracket device
Introduction If the vehicle is equipped with a towing
bracket device from the factory or is a genu-
ine SEAT accessory, it meets all national tech-
nical and legal requirements for towing.
Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pin power
socket for the electrical connection between
the trailer and the vehicle. If the towing
bracket is equipped with a
7-pin connector,
y ou c
an use the corresponding available
adaptor that is a genuine SEAT accessory.
The towing device has a maximum vertical
load of 50 kg
. WARNING
● Before driving with the ball-headed bar fit-
ted, verify its correct assembly and place-
ment in the clamping bush.

Care and maintenance
●
The modification of the suspension of the
vehicle wheels, including the use of non-per-
mitted combinations of tyres and rims can al-
ter the operation of the airbag system and in-
crease the risk of serious or fatal injuries in
an accident.
● During all jobs on the airbag system, in ad-
dition to the removal and fitting of parts of
the system in the course of other repair jobs,
parts of the airbag system can be damaged.
Therefore in the event of an accident, this
may cause the airbags to activate incorrectly
or not activate at all. Care and cleaning
Introduction Regular and suitable care helps to
maintain
the useful life of your vehicle. This may also
be one of the requirements for upholding any
warranty claims in the event of corrosion or
paint defects.
We recommend you use cleaning products
from the SEAT Original Accessories pro-
gramme available in SEAT dealers. Please fol-
low the instructions for use on the packag-
ing. WARNING
● Cleaning products and other materials used
for car care can damage the health if mis-
used.
● Always keep car care materials in a safe
place out of the reach of children. Risk of poi-
soning!
● When washing the car during the winter
season: Moisture and ice on the brakes may
affect braking efficiency. Risk of accident!
● The ignition must always be switched off
when the car is washed. Risk of accident!
● Do not clean the underside of the car or in-
side the wheel arches without protecting your
hands and arms. You may cut yourself on
sharp metal parts!
● Perfumes and air fresheners inside the ve-
hicle may be harmful to health at high tem-
peratures in the interior. CAUTION
● Check the colour-fastness of your clothing
to avoid damaging or visibly staining the fab-
ric (leather), upholstery and fabric trim.
● Cleaning products containing solvents may
damage the material being cleaned.
● Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.
Risk of damage to paintwork.
● If washing the vehicle with a hose in win-
ter, do not direct the jet of water directly at
the locks or at the door seals or bonnet. Risk
of freezing. ●
Do not use sponges for removing insects or
abrasive household sponges, etc. on painted
surfaces. Risk of damage to the painted sur-
face!
● Do not put stickers on the inner side of the
rear window in areas where heating elements
or the aerial are located. This could cause

Advice
●
Make sure you do not damage the paint-
work on the vehicle on removing snow and
ice from the windows and rear vision mirrors.
● Do not remove the snow or ice dirty with
thick particles, e.g. gravel, sand or road salt,
from windows and mirrors. Risk of damage to
the glass and mirror surfaces. Radio reception and aerial
In vehicles factory-fitted with an audio or
navigation system, the aerial may be instal-
led in different places:
● inside the rear window next to the heating
elements,
● on the roof of the vehicle.
Headlights Use soap and clean, hot water to clean the
front headlights.
CAUTION
● Never rub the headlights to dry them and
do not use sharp objects to clean the plastic
glass material. These could damage the pro-
tective paint and cause the headlights to
crack. ●
Do not use aggressive cleaning products or
chemical solvents to clean the glass. This
could damage the headlights. Care of rubber seals
The weatherstrips on doors and windows will
remain pliable and last longer if they are oc-
casionally treated with a suitable rubber care
product. This will prevent premature ageing
and leaks. If they are properly cared for, the
seals will be less likely to freeze up in the
winter.
Door lock cylinder Special products must be used to defrost
lock cylinders.
Note
● Make sure, when washing the vehicle, that
the least amount of water possible enters the
lock cylinders.
● We recommend the use of products from
the selection of SEAT Original Accessories to
care for the door lock cylinder. Wheels
Wheel trims
If you wash the vehicle regularly, you should
also thoroughly wash the wheel trim. Regu-
larly remove any brake dust and road salt
from the wheels, otherwise the wheel materi-
al could be damaged. Repair any damage to
the wheel paintwork immediately.
Alloy wheels
After thorough washing, treat the wheels
with a protective product for alloy wheels. Do
not use abrasive products to care for the
wheels.
WARNING
Moisture, ice and road salt may affect braking
efficiency. Risk of accident! CAUTION
Heavy dirt on the wheels could lead to their
misalignment. This could result in vibrations
being transmitted to the steering wheel that
under certain conditions may cause prema-
ture steering wear. This dirt must be re-
moved. Note
We recommend you leave paint damage re-
pairs to a SEAT Authorised Service. 126
Checking and refilling levels
petrol with the correct RON as soon as possi-
ble.
Petrol with a RON below 91 cannot be used,
ev en a
s an emergency measure. Risk of seri-
ously damaging the engine!
Petrol additives
The quality of the fuel influences the behav-
iour, power and service life of the engine.
This is why the petrol you use should carry
suitable additives already included by the
petrol industry, free of metals. These addi-
tives will help to prevent corrosion, keep the
fuel system clean and prevent deposits from
building up in the engine.
If good-quality petrol with metal-free addi-
tives is not available or engine problems
arise, the necessary additives must be added
when refuelling ››› .
Not all petrol additives have been shown to
be effective. The use of unsuitable petrol ad-
ditives may cause significant damage to the
engine and the catalytic converter. Metal ad-
ditives should never be used. Metal additives
may also be contained in petrol additives for
improving anti-detonation ratings or octane
ratings ››› .
SEAT recommends “genuine Volkswagen
Group Fuel Additives for petrol engines”.
These additives can be bought at SEAT deal-
ers, where information on how to use them
can also be obtained. CAUTION
● Do not refuel if the filler indicates that the
fuel contains metal. LRP (lead replacement
petrol) fuels contain high concentrations of
metal additives. Using them may damage the
engine!
● All SEAT vehicles with petrol engines can
only run on unleaded petrol. Refuelling just
once with leaded petrol disables the exhaust
system!
● Use of petrol with a lower RON to that pre-
scribed could damage the engine compo-
nents.
● Fuels marked as containing metal on the
garage fuel pump cannot be used. Risk of
damage to most engine parts or the exhaust
system!
● The use of unsuitable additives in petrol
can cause damage to most engine parts or
the exhaust system. Diesel fuel
Your vehicle can only run on
diesel fuel that
complies with the Standard EN 590 (in Ger-
m an
y, also DIN 51628, in Austria also
ÖNORM C 1590 , in Russia also GOST R
52368-2005/EN 590:2004).
Wint
er driving – winter-grade diesel
In winter use diesel fuel that complies with
the Standard EN 590
(in Germany, also DIN 51628, in Austria also ÖNORM C 1590
, in
Russia also
GOST R 52368-2005/EN
590:2004). “Winter-grade diesel” still per-
forms well at -20 °C (-4 °F).
In countries with other weather conditions,
diesel is often available that behaves differ-
ently with regards to the temperature. The
authorised SEAT dealers and petrol stations
in each country will inform you on the normal
diesel fuel of the country in question.
Preheating the fuel filter
The vehicle is fitted with a glow plug system
for the fuel filter. Therefore, the reliability of
the diesel is ensured at ambient tempera-
tures of down to approximately -25 °C
(-13 °F).
Fuel additives
Fuel additives, known as “thinners” (petrol or
similar substances) should not be mixed with
the diesel fuel. CAUTION
● Even one tankful of diesel fuel that does
not comply with the standard could damage
engine parts, the fuel system and the ex-
haust system!
● If fuel different to the prescribed diesel fuel
(e.g. petrol) is used by mistake, never start
the engine or switch on the ignition! Risk of » 131

Safety
Checking and refilling levels
climbing on mountain passes, the oil level
should preferably be kept within area A ,
but
no higher .
A w
arning lamp will appear on the instrument
panel ››› page 34, Engine oil if the oil lev-
el is too low. In this case, check the oil level
as soon as possible. Top up with the required
amount of oil. CAUTION
● The oil level must never exceed area A›››
Fig. 111. Risk of damage to the exhaust
sy s
tem!
● If the engine oil cannot be topped up under
the given conditions, do not drive on! Stop the engine and seek
the professional assis-
tance of an Official Service, as this could
cause serious damage to the engine. Topping up engine oil
–
Check the engine oil level ›››
page 136,
Checking the engine oil level .
– Unscrew the cap from the filler opening.
– Put in the specified grade of oil 0.5 litres at
a time ›››
page 135 .
– Chec k
the oil level ›››
page 136.
– Replace the oil filler cap carefully and push
the dipstick all the way in. Changing engine oil Engine oil must be changed with the frequen-
cy indicated in the Maintenance Programme
or according to the service interval indicator
››› page 45. CAUTION
Do not mix engine oil with additives. Risk of
damage to the engine! Damage caused by
these products is not covered by the warran-
ty. Note
Wash your skin thoroughly if it comes into
contact with engine oil. Coolant
General notes The cooling system is factory-filled with an
anti-freeze product.
Coolant consists of a mixture of water and
40% anti-freeze additive. This mixture gives
the required anti-freeze protection at temper-
atures down to -25 °C (-13 °F) and protects
the cooling and heating system against cor-
rosion. It also prevents scaling and raises the
boiling point of the coolant considerably.The coolant concentration must not be re-
duced by adding water, even in warmer sea-
sons or in warm countries.
The concentration
of the anti-freeze additive in the coolant
must be at least 40 %.
If greater anti-freeze protection is required in
very cold climates, the proportion of the anti-
freeze additive can be increased, but only up
to 60% (anti-freeze protection down to ap-
proximately -40 °C (-40 °F)). Exceeding this
proportion reduces anti-freeze protection and
the cooling effect.
Coolant fluid with protection down to -35 °C
(-31 °F) is added at the factory in vehicles
destined for countries with a cold climate. In
these countries, the concentration of coolant
should always be kept above 50%.
The type of anti-freeze to be used for topping
up is indicated on the coolant tank cover
››› Fig. 112 . CAUTION
● Anti-freeze that does not correspond to the
correct specification may particularly affect
corrosion protection considerably.
● Faults caused by corrosion may lead to
coolant leaks. Risk of serious engine faults! 137
