power socket
The 12 volt socket is found in the storage
compartment at the front of the centre con-
sole ›››
Fig. 133 and only functions when the
ignition is switched on.
Using electrical appliances with the engine
stopped and the ignition switched on will
drain the battery. Therefore, electrical devi-
ces connected to the power socket can only
be used when the engine is running.
To prevent voltage variations from causing
damage, switch off the electrical device con-
nected to the 12 Volt power socket before switching the ignition on or off and before
star

ting the engine. WARNING
Improper use of the socket or electrical devi-
ce s

could lead to a fire and cause serious in-
juries.
● Never leave children unsupervised in the
vehicl
e. The socket and equipment connected
to it can be used when the ignition is switch-
ed on.
● Should a connected electrical device over-
heat, swit
ch it off and unplug it immediately. CAUTION
● Alw a

ys follow the operating instructions for
the appliances to be connected!
● Never exceed the maximum power rating as
this c
ould damage the vehicle's general elec-
trical system.
● 12 volt power socket:
– Only u

se accessories with approved elec-
tromagnetic compatibility according to
current regulations.
– Never power the socket. CAUTION
● To av oid d

amage to the vehicle's electrical

● To avoid damage due to voltage variations,
switc
h off all devices connected to the 12 V
socket before switching the ignition on or off
and before starting the engine.
● Never connect an appliance to the 12 volt
power soc
ket that consumes more than the
power indicated in watts. Exceeding the max-
imum power absorption could damage the ve-

Advice
It may be necessary to fit or remove certain
piec e
s
of equipment or to deactivate certain
functions. Service work may also be affected.
This is particularly true if the vehicle is used
in a different climate for an extended period
of time. CAUTION
● SEA T doe

s not accept liability for any dam-
age to the vehicle due to the use of a lower
quality fuel, an inadequate service or the
non-availability of genuine spare parts.
● SEAT does not accept liability if the vehicle
does not
comply in part or in full with the le-
gal requirements of other countries or conti-
nents. Radio and antenna reception
For factory-fitted radio equipment, the aerial
f
or r
a

dio reception is fitted to the roof of the
vehicle. Note
If electrical equipment such as mobile tele-
phones, i s

used near a roof aerial, you may
observe interference in the reception of AM
stations. Notes on SEAT repairs
WARNING
Repairs or modifications which are not per-
formed c orr

ectly may result in damage or er-
rors in the vehicle operation, affecting the ef-
fectiveness of the driver assist and airbag
systems. This could result in serious acci-
dent.
● Have any repairs or modifications carried
out at a s
pecialised workshop. Conformity certification
The respective manufacturer hereby declares
th

An extensive network of used car reception
centres already exists in much of Europe. Af-
ter the vehicle has been delivered, you will
receive a certificate of destruction describing
the environmentally friendly scrapping of the
vehicle in accordance with applicable legisla-
tion.
We will collect the used vehicle free of

legislation.
Please see your technical service for further
information about the collection and scrap-

Scrapping
The relevant safety requirements must be ob-
served when the vehicle or components of
the airbag or belt tensioner systems are
scrapped. These requirements are known to
specialised workshops. 180

Wheels and tyres
●
Batt er
y cables not correctly connected may
cause a short circuit. Reconnect first the posi-
tive cable and then the negative cable. CAUTION
● Nev er di s

connect the battery if the ignition
is switched on or if the engine is running.
This could damage the electrical system or
electronic components.
● Never plug accessories that supply current,
such a
s solar panels or a battery charger, to
the 12-volt power socket or the cigarette
lighter. This could damage the vehicle's elec-
trical system. For the sake of the environment
Dispose of the battery in an environment-
friendly m anner

. Batteries contain toxic sub-
stances such as sulphuric acid and lead. For the sake of the environment
Battery acid can contaminate the environ-
ment. C o

pose of them correctly. Wheels and tyres
T y

es
Introduction SEAT recommend that all work on tyres and
wheels
i

s carried out by a specialised work-
shop. These workshops have the necessary
special tools and replacement parts, trained
personnel and facilities for disposing of the
old tyres while respecting the environment.
SEAT recommends taking your car in for tech-
nical service. WARNING
The vehicle cannot be totally controlled or
brak ed if

the tyres (new or used) are worn or
damaged.
● Incorrect use of wheels and tyres could
make driv
ing more dangerous and result in
serious accidents and damage.
● All four wheels must be fitted with radial
tyre
s of the same type, size (rolling circumfer-
ence) and the same tread pattern.
● New tyres do not give maximum grip and
wil
l not have reached their maximum braking
capacity to start with, and therefore need
running in. To prevent accidents and major
damage, extreme caution should be taken for
the first 600 km. ●
Check ty

re pressures regularly and ensure
they are maintained at the pressures indica-
ted. If the tyre pressure is too low, they could
overheat, resulting in tread detachment or
even burst tyres.
● Never drive on damaged (punctured, cut,
crac
ked or dented) or worn tyres. Driving on
damaged or worn tyres could result in burst
tyres, serious accidents or damage. Worn or
damaged tyres must be replaced immediate-
ly.
● Never exceed the maximum permitted
speed or loa
ds specified for the type of tyre
fitted on your vehicle.
● The effectiveness of driver and brake assist
syst
ems also depends on the grip of the
tyres.
● If you notice unusual vibration or if the ve-
hicle p
ulls to one side when driving, stop the
car immediately and check the tyres and
wheels for damage.
● To minimise the risk of losing control of the
vehicl
e or causing a serious accident, never
undo the bolted joints of beadlock wheels.
● Never mount used tyres or wheels if you are
not sur
e of their previous history. They may
be damaged, although the damage is not im-
mediately visible.
● Old tyres, even if they have never been
used, ma
y lose air or burst unexpectedly
while driving, especially at high speeds, re-
sulting in serious accident and injury. If tyres
are over six years old, they should only be » 199
