Display and storage of the values for
the journey and the consumption
from when the ignition is switched
on to when it is switched off.
If the journey is continued in less
than 2 hours after the ignition is
switched off, the new data is added
to the data already stored in the
memory. The memory will automati-
cally be deleted if the journey is in-
terrupted for more than 2 hours.
MFD from re- fuellingDisplay and storage of the values for

The memory records the values for a
specific number of partial trips, up
to a total of 19 hours and 59 mi-
nutes or 99 hours and 59 minutes,
or 1999.9 km or 9999 km, depend-
ing on the model of instrument pan-

Current fuel
consumption
The current fuel consumption dis-
play operates throughout the
journey, in litres/100 km; and
with the engine running and the
vehicle stopped, in litres/hour.
Average fuel consumption
After turning on the ignition, aver-
age fuel consumption in li-
tres/100 km will be displayed af-
ter travelling about 300 metres.
Otherwise horizontal lines are
displayed. The value shown is up-
dated approximately every 5 sec-
onds.

Operating
range
Approximate distance in km that
can still be travelled with the fuel
remaining in the tank, assuming
the same style of driving is main-
tained. This is calculated using
the current fuel consumption.
Travelling
timeThis indicates the hours (h) and
minutes (min) since the ignition
was switched on.
JourneyDistance covered in km (m) after
switching on the ignition.
CNG quality
Whenever you refuel the quality
of the natural gas is automatically
verified and is displayed when
the ignition is switched on. The
display is made in a percentage
of between 70% and 100%. The
greater the percentage displayed
the lower the consumption may
be.
Average speed
The average speed will be shown
after a distance of about 100 me-

The temperatures measured range from
-40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).
Engine oil temperature display The engine reaches its operating temperature
when in normal
driv

ing conditions the oil
temperature is between 80°C (178°F) and
120°C (248°F). If the engine is required to
work hard and the outside temperature is
high, the engine oil temperature can in-
crease. This does not present any problem as
long as the warning lamps  ››› table on

signal sounds, and the warning lamp  and
the driver message Speed limit excee-

instrument panel. The warning lamp 
switches off when reducing speed below the
stored maximum limit.
Speed warning programming is recommen-

Operation
WARNING
Any distraction may lead to an accident, with
the risk of
injury.
● Do not operate the instrument panel con-
trol
s when driving. CAUTION
● When the engine i s

cold, avoid high revs
and heavy acceleration and do not make the
engine work hard. Revolution counter
The rev counter indicates the number of en-
gine r
ev
o

lutions per minute ›››
Fig. 125 1 .
T og
ether w
ith the gear-change indicator, the
rev counter offers you the possibility of using
the engine of your vehicle at a suitable
speed.
The start of the red zone on the dial indicates
the maximum engine speed which may be
used briefly when the engine is warm and af-
ter it has been run in properly. Before reach-
ing this range, you should change to a higher
gear for vehicles with a manual gearbox or for
automatic gearboxes put the selector lever in
“D” or take your foot off the accelerator ped-
al.
We recommend that you avoid high revs and
that you follow the recommendations on the gear-change indicator. Consult the additional
information in
›

››  page 41, Gear-change
indicator. CAUTION
Never allow the rev counter needle 1 ›››
Fig. 125 to g o int
o the red zone on the
scale for more than a very brief period, other-
wise there is a risk of engine damage. For the sake of the environment
Changing up a gear early will help you to save
fuel and minimi

se emissions and engine
noise. Indications on the display

Air conditioning
prevent further damage and have it checked
by
a s
pecialised workshop.
● Repairs to the air conditioner require spe-
cia
list knowledge and special tools. There-
fore, we recommend you to take the vehicle
to a specialised workshop. Note
● If the humidity and t

emperature outside the
vehicle are high, condensation can drip off
the evaporator in the cooling system and
form a pool underneath the vehicle. This is
normal and does not indicate 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.
● The air from the vents flows through the ve-
hicle int
erior and is extracted by slots in the
luggage compartment designed for this pur- pose. Therefore, you should avoid obstruct-
ing the
se s

lots with any kind of object.
● The air conditioner operates most effective-
ly with the w
indows and the sliding/tilting
sunroof* closed. However, if the temperature
inside the vehicle is excessive because of the
sun, the air inside can be cooled faster by
opening the windows for a short time.
● Do not smoke while air recirculation mode
is on, a
s smoke drawn into the air condition-
ing system leaves residue on the evaporator,
producing a permanent unpleasant odour.
● At low outside temperatures, the compres-
sor switc
hes off automatically and cannot be
switched on even with the AUTO button.
● It is advisable to turn on the air condition-
ing at l

east once a month, to lubricate the
system gaskets and prevent leaks. If a de-
crease in the cooling capacity is detected, a
Technical Service should be consulted to
check the system. ●
To en s

ure correct operation, the grilles on
both sides of the screen must not be obstruc-
ted.
● When the engine is under extreme strain,
switc
h off the compressor for a moment. Economic use of the air conditioning
When the air conditioning is switched on, the
compr
e

ssor consumes engine power and has
influence on fuel consumption. Consider the
following points in order to have the system
operating in the minimum possible time.
● If the vehicle interior has overheated due to
an ex c

essive solar radiation, it is best to
open the windows or doors to allow the hot
air to escape.
● While in motion, the air conditioning
should not
be switched on if the windows or
the sunroof* are open.

Operation
The driver message Inertia wi
l l be dis-
played. At speeds higher than 20 km/h (12
mph), the gearbox will automatically disen-
gage and the vehicle will roll freely, without
the effect of the engine brake. While the vehi-
cle rolls, the engine runs at idling speed.
Stopping inertia mode
– Press the brake or the accelerator pedal.
To mak
e use of the braking force and switch
off the engine again, simply press the brake
pedal briefly.
Applying both the inertia mode (= prolonged
section with less energy) and the switching
off using inertia (= shorter section without
the need for fuel) facilitates improved fuel
consumption and emission balance. WARNING
● If the iner ti

a mode has been switched on,
take into account, when approaching an ob-
stacle and releasing the accelerator pedal,
that the vehicle will not decelerate in the usu-
al manner: risk of accident!
● When using inertia mode while travelling
down hil
ls, the vehicle can increase speed:
risk of accident!
● If other users drive your vehicle, warn them
about inerti
a mode. Note
● Inerti a mode i

s only available in eco (SEAT
Drive Profile*) driving mode.
● The driver message Inertia is on
ly dis-
played with the current consumption. In iner-
tia mode the gear will no longer be displayed
(for example “E” will appear instead of “E7”).
● On downhill sections with gradients above
15 %, the inertia mode w
ill automatically be
switched off temporarily. Emergency program
A backup programme is in place if a fault
shou
l
d oc

cur in the control system.
If all the positions of the selector lever are
shown over a light background on the instru-
ment panel display, there is a system fault
and the automatic gearbox will operate in
with the backup programme. When the back-
up programme is activated, it is possible to
drive the vehicle, however, at low speeds and
within a selected range of gears. In some ca-
ses driving in reverse gear may not be possi-
ble. CAUTION
If the gearbox operates with the backup pro-
gramme, t ak

e the vehicle to a specialised
workshop and have the fault repaired without
delay. Clutch

workshop without delay. If the warning lamp
