The essentials
If for weather reasons further protection is
nec e
s
sary, the proportion of additive may be
increased, but only up to 60 %; otherwise an-
tifreeze protection will diminish and this will
worsen cooling.
When the coolant is topped up, use a mixture
of distilled water and at least 40 % of the
G13 or G12 plus-plus (TL-VW 774 G) additive
(both are purple) to obtain an optimum anti-
corrosion protection ››› in Topping up cool-
ant on p ag
e 271

. The mixture of G13 with
G12 plus (TL-VW 774 F), G12 (red) or G11
(green-blue) engine coolants will significant-
ly reduce anti-corrosion protection and
should therefore be avoided ››› in Topping

Air conditioning
WARNING
In air recirculation mode, no cold air from the
outs ide ent
ers the vehicle interior. If the air
conditioner is switched off, the windows can
quickly mist over. Therefore, never leave the air recirculation mode switched on for a long
time (risk
of

accident). Note
● Activ atin

g air recirculation automatically
activates the  button (to prevent the win-
dows from misting up). If the temperature
regulator is turned to the coldest setting
(blue point), the air recirculation function and
the  button are automatically activated. ●
If the f u

Safety

Checking and refilling levels
gas tanks are weakened by deformations,
d am
ag
e or corrosion. As a result, the tanks
could burst and result in serious injuries or
even death. For this reason, the vehicle own-
er must have a specialised workshop check
(visual check) the gas system every 4 years
at least . The vehicle owner must have a spe-
cialised workshop replace the natural gas
tanks before they reach the end of their serv-
ice life. For further information about the
service life of gas tanks, go to a SEAT dealer
service or a specialised workshop WARNING
Failure to act when you can smell gas in the
vehic l

e or when refuelling can cause serious
injuries.
● Carry out the necessary operations.
● Leave the danger zone.
● If necessary, warn the emergency services. WARNING
The vehicle is not prepared to use liquefied
nat ur

al gas (LNG) and this fuel must not be
added under any circumstances. Liquefied
natural gas can cause the natural gas tank to
explode, resulting in serious injury. WARNING
Damaged, corroded or rusted tanks can result
in serious injur

y or even death. ●
Have the n at

ural gas deposits checked at
least every 4 years (visual check).
● Natural gas tanks have a limited service
life. Have the n
atural gas tanks replaced
when required. You can obtain further infor-
mation about this at SEAT dealers or special-
ised workshops. WARNING
If the vehicle underbody touches the ground
or in the ev ent of

a rear collision, there could
be damage to the natural gas tanks.
● Check whether there is a smell of gas.
● If you notice a smell of gas, take the vehicle
to a spec
ialised workshop immediately and
have the natural gas system checked. Note
Have the natural gas system checked regular-
ly b y

a specialised workshop, according to
the Maintenance Programme. AdBlue

Inf orm
ation on AdBlue ® The consumption of AdBlue
®
depend s
on
y
our personal driving style, the temperature
of the system and on the outdoor tempera-
ture when the vehicle is used. AdBlue
®
freezes at temperatures of -11°C
(+13°F). The sy
stem has heating elements
that guarantee its operation even at low tem-
peratures.
The AdBlue ®
tank level capacity is approxi-
mately 10.4 litres.
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 262. If this information is ignored,
later on it will not be possible to re-start the
engine. If this warning does not appear, it is
not necessary 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 e
xcessively can
cause damage to the tank. 261

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 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 11 litres.
Switch the ignition off. If the ignition is not
switched off during refilling, the warning to
refill may continue to appear on the instru-
ment panel display. Fill with a refill bottle
Only u
