Other services available
Other services available L egal Inspection Service The legal inspections must be carried out
at
the intervals prescribed.
Many countries have legal requirements ob-
liging owners to have their vehicle tested at
specified intervals for safety for the user and
for other traffic, as well as ensuring that vehi-
cle exhaust emissions meet the countries'
regulations. These revisions must be over-
seen by officially certified centres.
Your SEAT Official Service can advise of the
inspections required by law, and can check
your vehicle in the course of an Inspection
Service. This will save you both time and
money.
The SEAT Official Service can also carry out
the inspections required by law at the client's
request.
Even if you do not wish to take advantage of
this service and decide to take your vehicle
to an officially certified centre for this check,
we recommend that you speak to the manag-
er of your SEAT Official Service first.
This person will be able to inform you of any
points that require attention so that your car
does not fail the test and have to be re-tes-
ted. Approved spare parts Genuine SEAT spare parts are designed for
y
our vehicle and approved by SEAT, particu-
larly as regards safety. The workmanship,
precision of dimensions and materials of

fications. Genuine SEAT spare parts have

We therefore recommend that you always use
