Operation
Note
● When the coo lin
g system is turned off, air
coming from the outside will not be dried. To
avoid fogging up the windows, SEAT recom-
mends leaving the cooler (compressor) on. To
do this, press the A/C button. The button
lamp shou l

d light up.
● If the humidity and temperature outside the
vehicl
e are high, condensation can drip off
the evaporator in the cooling system and
form a pool underneath the vehicle, this is
completely normal and there is no need to
suspect a leak.
● Keep the air intake slots in front of the
winds
creen free of snow, ice and leaves to en-
sure heating and cooling are not impaired,
and to prevent the windows from misting
over. Controls

The interior cooling system only works when
the engine i

running and fan is switched on.
The air conditioner operates most effectively
with the windows and the electric sliding
panoramic roof closed. However, if the vehi-
cle has heated up after standing in the sun
for some time, the air inside can be cooled
more quickly by opening the windows and
the sliding electric panoramic sunroof briefly.
Setting for conditions of optimal visibility
When the air conditioning is switched on, the
temperature and the air humidity in the vehi-
cle interior drop. In this way, when the out-
side air humidity is high, the windows do not
mist over and comfort for the vehicle occu-
pants is improved.
