CAUTION
When opening and closing in an emergency,
car ef
ully disassemble components and then
reassemble them carefully to avoid damage
to the vehicle. Fuses and bulbs

Introduction Due to the constant updating of vehicles,
fu
se a

ssignments based on equipment and
the use of the same fuse for various electrical
components, it is not possible to provide an
up-to-date summary of the fuse positions for
the electrical components at the time of
printing this manual. For detailed information
about the fuse positions, please consult a
technical service.
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various
electrical components. Likewise, an electrical
component can be protected by several
fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the
problem has been solved. If a newly inserted
fuse blows after a short time, you must have
the electrical system checked by a special-
ised workshop as soon as possible. WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can
give seriou s

electrical shocks, causing burns
and even death!
● Never touch the electrical wiring of the igni-
tion syst
em. ●
Tak e c

are not to cause short circuits in the
electrical system. WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or
bridgin g a curr

ent circuit without fuses can
cause a fire and serious injury.
● Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only
repl
ace 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 simil
ar. CAUTION
● To pr ev

ent 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
fuse,
you could cause damage to another part
of the electrical system.
● Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent the entr
y of dust or humidity as they can
damage the electrical system. Note
● One component m

ay have more than one
fuse. 78

Sever a

Opening and closing the fuse box situated
below the dash panel
● Opening: Pres

er. Fold the cover down.
● Closing: Fold the cover up in the opposite
direction t

locking lever 1 .
T o open the en

ompartment fuse box
● Open the bonnet  ›››
page 186.
● Press the attachment tabs in the direction
indicated b
y the arrow (thin arrows) to re-
lease the fuse box cover ››› Fig. 83.
● Then lift the cover out.
● To fit the cover, place it on the fuse box.
Pu
sh the attachment tabs down, in the oppo-
site direction indicated by the arrow until
they click audibly into place. CAUTION
● Alw a

ys carefully remove the fuse box cov-
ers and refit them correctly to avoid problems
with your vehicle. ●
Prot ect

the fuse boxes when open to avoid
the entry of dust or humidity. Dirt and humid-
ity inside fuse boxes can cause damage to
the electrical system. Note
In the vehicle, there are more fuses than
tho se indic at

ed in this chapter. These should
only be changed by a specialised workshop. Changing bulbs
Intr oduction Changing bulbs requires a certain amount of
m
anual
sk

ill. If you are unsure, SEAT recom-
mends that you consult a technical service or
request assistance from a specialist. In gen-
eral a specialist is needed if, in addition to
the bulbs, other vehicle components require
removal.
You should store spare light bulbs in the ve-
hicle for safety-relevant lights. Spare bulbs
may be obtained from the technical services.
In some countries, it is a legal requirement to
carry spare bulbs in the vehicle.
Driving with faults and blown bulbs on the
vehicle exterior lighting is against the law. »

Additional bulb specifications
The s pec
ific
ations of some headlamp bulbs
and bulbs for the rear lamps fitted at the fac-
tory may be different to those of conventional
bulbs. Bulb information is displayed on the
bulb socket or on the bulb itself. WARNING
If the road is not well-lit and the vehicle is
not c l

early visible to other drivers, there is a
risk of accident. WARNING
Failure to replace bulbs correctly may cause
serious ac

cidents.
● Before carrying out any work in the engine
compar
tment please read and observe the
warnings ››› page 186. In any vehicle, the en-
gine compartment is a hazardous area and
could cause severe injury.
● The bulbs H4, HB4 and H7 are pressurised
and might exp
lode on changing them.
● Only replace the bulbs concerned when
they hav
e cooled.
● Never replace bulbs alone if you are not fa-
miliar w
ith the operations necessary. If you
are not sure about procedures then visit a
specialised workshop to carry out the neces-
sary work.
● Never touch the bulb glass directly. Finger-
prints w
ill be evaporated by the heat of the operating bulb thus “fogging” up the reflec-
tor
.
● The he

adlamp frameworks in the engine
compar
tment and the rear lamps contain
sharp elements. Always protect your hands
when changing bulbs. CAUTION
● Af ter c

hanging a bulb, if the rubber covers
are not replaced correctly on the headlamp
framework, the electrical installation may be
damaged, especially if water is allowed to en-
ter.
● Remove the ignition key before working on
the electric sy
stem. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur.
● Switch off the lights and the parking light
before c
hanging a bulb.
● Take good care to avoid damaging any com-
ponents. Replacing the bulbs in the headlights

Warning and information messages
The system runs a check on certain compo-
nents and functions when the ignition is
switched on and while the vehicle is moving.
Faults in the operation are displayed on the
screen using red and yellow symbols on the
instrument panel display ( ›››
 page 24)
and, in some cases, with audible warnings.
The display may vary according to the type of
instrument panel fitted.
Priority 1 warning (red symbols)
Symbol flashing or lit; partly combined with audible
warnings.
 Stop the vehicle! It is dangerous ››› !
Check the function that is faulty and repair it. If necessa-
ry, request assistance from specialised personnel.
Priority 2 warning (yellow symbols)
Symbol flashing or lit; partly combined with audible
warnings.
A faulty function, or fluids which are below the correct
levels may cause damage to the vehicle! ›››
Check the faulty function as soon as possible. If neces-
sary, request assistance from specialised personnel. Odometer
The odomet
er
r

egisters the total distance
travelled by the car.
The odometer (trip ) shows the distance
travelled since the last odometer reset. The
last figure indicates 100 m.
Outside temperature indicator!
When the outside temperature is below +4 °C
(+39 °F), the symbol “ice crystal” (warning of
risk of freezing) is also displayed next to the
temperature. At first this symbol flashes and
then it remains lit until the outside tempera-
ture rises above +6 °C (+43 °F) ››› .
When the v
ehic

le is stationary or travelling at
very low speeds, the temperature displayed
may be slightly higher than the actual »
