Nev er u
se a fuse with a higher value. Only
replace fuses with a fuse of the same amper-
age (same colour and markings) and size.
● Never repair a fuse.
● Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple
or simi
lar. CAUTION
● To pr
event damage to the vehicle's electric
system, before replacing a fuse always turn
off the ignition, the lights and all electrical
elements and remove the key from the igni-
tion.
● If you replace a fuse with higher-rating
fu
se, you could cause damage to another part
of the electrical system.
● Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent
the entry of dust or humidity as they can
damage the electrical system. Note
● One c omponent
may have more than one
fuse.
● Several components may run on a single
fu
se. Vehicle fuses

CAUTION
● The v
ehicle is not designed for the use of
FAME fuel (biodiesel). The fuel system would
be damaged if you used biodiesel.
● Do not mix fuel additives, the so-called
“thinners”, petr
ol or similar additives with
diesel fuel.
● If poor-quality diesel fuel is used, it may be
nece
ssary to drain the fuel filter more fre-
quently than is specified in the Maintenance
Programme. We recommend having this done
by a specialised workshop. If water is allowed
to collect in the filter, this can cause engine
performance problems. Exhaust purification system for

Introduction To reduce emissions, SCR (Selective Catalytic

an be used in vehicles with die-
sel engines. Through the special urea solu-
tion AdBlue ®
, SCR transforms nitrogen ox-
ides into nitrogen and water.
AdBlue ®
is stored in a separate tank in the
vehicle ›››
page 280. WARNING
If the level of AdBlue ®
is
too low and the igni-
tion is switched off, it will no longer be possi-
ble to re-start the engine. Not even by jump-
starting the car!
● Insert enough AdBlue ®
when the dis
tance
to empty is approx. 1000 km, at the latest.
● Never run the AdBlue ®
tank
completely dry. WARNING
AdBlue ®
is an irritant, corrosive liquid that
c
an cause injuries if it comes into contact
with the skin, eyes or respiratory organs.
● Before opening an AdBlue ®
rec
ipient, al-
ways take the manufacturer's instructions for
use into account. If the instructions are fol-
lowed correctly, it is not likely that the user
will come into contact with AdBlue ®
.
● If AdBlue ®
come
s into contact with your
eyes, rinse it immediately with plenty of wa-
ter for at least 15 minutes before seeking
medical attention.
● If AdBlue ®
come
s into contact with your
skin, rinse with water for at least 15 minutes
and, in case of skin irritation, seek medical
attention immediately.
● If you accidentally swallow AdBlue ®
, rinse
y
our mouth with plenty of water for at least
15 minutes. Do not induce vomiting unless
advised to by a doctor. Seek immediate medi-
cal attention. CAUTION
AdBlue ®
m ay damage the vehicle's painted
s
urfaces, plastic, upholstery and carpet,
among other things. In case of a spill, clean it
as soon as possible with a damp cloth and
plenty of cold water.
● Remove the AdBlue ®

The AdBlue

system
is malfunctioning or
has been filled with
AdBlue ®
that does
not meet the prescri-
bed standard.
Immediately consult a special-
ised workshop and have the
system checked. Some warning and control lamps will light up
briefly
when the ignition i
s switched on to
check certain functions. They will switch off
after a few seconds. WARNING
Observe the safety warnings ››

on
your personal driving style, the temperature of the system and on the outdoor tempera-

AdBlue ®
freezes at temperatures of -11°C
(+13°F). The system has heating elements
that guarantee its operation even at low tem-
peratures.
The AdBlue ®
tank level capacity is approxi-
mately 12 litres.
The minimum amount to be poured in (as-
suming the tank is empty) is indicated on the
AdBlue ®
sticker located on the floor of the
luggage compartment.
The AdBlue ®
tank should never be empty.
When the distance to empty drops below
2400 km, a warning to refill the AdBlue ®
tank
will appear on the dash panel display
››› page 280. If this information is ignored, it
will later no longer be possible to re-start the
engine ››› in Introduction on page 279. If
thi s
warning does not appear, it is not neces-
sary to refill the AdBlue ®
tank.
AdBlue ®
is a registered brand of the German
Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA)
and is also known as AUS32 or DEF (Diesel
Exhaust Fluid). CAUTION
Filling the AdBlue ®
tank
excessively can
cause damage to the tank.
● SEAT recommends refilling the AdBlue ®
tank
at a specialised workshop. Refilling AdBlue

P
ark
the vehicle on a flat surface. If the vehi-
cle is not parked on a flat surface, but, for ex-
ample, on a slope or on the side of a curb,
the level indicator may not detect the load
properly.
If a warning message about AdBlue ®
levels
appears on the dash panel display, fill at
least the minimum amount required (approx.
5.7 litres). Only after adding this amount will
the system detect that AdBlue ®
has been
added and you will be able to start the en-
gine again. The maximum amount that can
be refilled is 12 litres.
Switch the ignition off. If the ignition is
switched off during refilling, the warning to
refill may continue to appear on the instru-
ment panel display.

Checking and refilling levels
Opening the tank filling neck
● Open the fuel tank flap.
● Unscrew the tank cap by turning it in an an-
ti-c loc
kwise direction.
Fill with a refill bottle
Only use AdBlue ®
that complies with ISO
22241-1. Only use original containers.
● Please observe the manufacturer's instruc-
tions, indic
ated on the refill bottle.
● Check the expiry date.
● Remove the cap of the refill bottle.
● Insert the neck of the bottle in the tank fill-
er neck
vertically and screw the bottle on by
hand, by turning it in a clockwise direction.
● Press the refill bottle in the direction of the
fil
ler neck and hold it in this position.
● Wait until the contents of the refill bottle
hav
e been poured into the AdBlue ®
tank. Do
not compress or break the bottle!
● Turn the bottle in a counter-clockwise direc-
tion and gently
pull it upwards ››› .
● The AdBlue ®
tank
is full when no more liq-
uid comes out of the bottle.
Closing the tank filling neck
● Screw on the tank cap in a clockwise direc-
tion unti
l it is tightly closed.
● Close the fuel tank flap. Operations before driving
●
After refilling the tank, only
switch on the
ignition.
● Leave the ignition on for at least 30 sec-
onds
for the system to detect the fluid load.
● Make sure you wait for at least 30 seconds
befor
e starting the engine! WARNING
AdBlue ®
shou l
d only be stored in the original
container, which should be tightly closed and
kept in a safe place.
● Never keep AdBlue ®
in empty f
ood contain-
ers, bottles or other similar containers. Other
people may confuse it for other products.
● Keep AdBlue ®
out of
the reach of children. CAUTION
● On ly
use AdBlue ®
that complies with ISO
22241-1. Only use original containers.
● Never mix AdBlue ®
with w

tives. Any type of damage caused by such a
mixture will not be covered by the warranty.
● Never pour AdBlue ®
into the f
uel tank. This
could result in engine damage.
● Do not carry the refill bottle inside the vehi-
cl
