Advice
Paint damage Minor damage to the paint, such as scratches
or st
one c
hips, should be touched up without
delay using paint.
Suitable touch-up brushes or sprays for the
colour of your vehicle can be purchased from
authorised SEAT dealers. Note
We recommend you leave paint damage re-
pair s
to a SEAT Authorised Service. Plastic parts
Exterior plastic parts will come clean using a
d
amp c
loth. If
this is not sufficient, plastic
parts can also be treated with special sol-
vent-free plastic cleaning detergents .
Do not use paint cleaners, polishes or wax on
plastic parts.
Windows and mirrors Remove snow and ice from windows and rear
v
i
s
ion mirrors with a plastic scraper only. To
avoid damaging the surface of the glass, the
scraper should only be pushed in one direc-
tion and not moved to and fro. The windows should also be cleaned on the
inside at
regular intervals.
Use a separate cloth or chamois to dry the
windows and rear vision mirrors.
Do not use the chamois used to polish the
bodywork to dry the windows. Waxing and
polishing residues could cause smears on
the glass and hinder visibility. CAUTION
● Never u se hot
or boiling water to remove
snow and ice from the windows. Risk of crack-
ing glass!
● Make sure you do not damage the paint-
work on the
vehicle on removing snow and
ice from the windows and rear vision mirrors.
● Do not remove the snow or ice dirty with
thick p
articles, e.g. gravel, sand or road salt,
from windows and mirrors. Risk of damage to
the glass and mirror surfaces. Headlights
Use soap and clean, hot water to clean the
fr
ont
he
adlights. CAUTION
● Never rub the he a
dlights to dry them and
do not use sharp objects to clean the plastic
glass material. These could damage the pro- tective paint and cause the headlights to
cr
ac
k.
● Do not use aggressive cleaning products or
chemica
l solvents to clean the glass. This
could damage the headlights. Caring for rubber seals
The weatherstrips on doors and windows will
rem
ain p
liable and last longer if they are oc-
casionally treated with a suitable rubber care
product. This will prevent premature ageing
and leaks. If they are properly cared for, the
seals will be less likely to freeze up in the
winter.
Door lock cylinder Special products must be used to defrost
loc
k
cylinder
s. Note
● Mak e s
ure, when washing the vehicle, that
the least amount of water possible enters the
lock cylinders.
● We recommend the use of products from
the selection of
SEAT Original Accessories to
care for the door lock cylinder. 198

The layout of the engine compartment is very
simi l
ar to all petrol and diesel engines. Radiator fan
The radiator is driven by an electric motor
and c
ontr
o
lled according to the temperature
of the coolant.
After the engine has been stopped and the
ignition switched off, the radiator fan may
continue running for around 10 minutes. Engine oil
General
notes The engine comes with a special, multi-grade
oil
th
at can be used all year round.
Because the use of high-quality oil is essen-
tial for the correct operation of the engine
and its long useful life, when topping up or
changing oil, use only those oils that comply
with VW standards.
The specifications (VW standards) set out in
the following page should appear on the con-
tainer of the service oil; when the container
displays the specific standards for petrol and
diesel engines together, it means that the oil
can be used for both types of engines.
We recommend that the oil change indicated
in the Maintenance Programme, be »

Advice
The brake fluid reservoir is located in the en-
gine c omp
ar
tment of the vehicle.
– Switch the ignition off.
– Open the bonnet ›››
page 204.
– Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir
›››
Fig. 208. It should be between the “MIN”
and “MAX” marks.
The fluid level drops slightly after a period of
time due to automatic compensation for
brake pad wear. This is quite normal.
However, if the level goes down noticeably in
a short time, or drops below the “MIN” mark,
there may be a leak in the brake system. If
the brake fluid level in the reservoir is too
low, this will be indicated by the warning
lamp illuminating on the instrument panel
››› page 157, Control lamp .WARNING
● If the fluid l ev
el has dropped below the MIN
mark, do not continue driving. Risk of acci-
dent! Go to a technical service.
● Heavy use of the brakes may cause a va-
pour lock if
the brake fluid is left in the brake
system for too long. This would seriously af-
fect the efficiency of the brakes and the safe-
ty of the vehicle. Changing the brake fluid
Brake fluid absorbs moisture. Therefore, it
gra
dual
ly absorbs moisture from the atmos-
phere. If the water content in the brake fluid
is too high, the brake system could corrode.
The water content also reduces the boiling
point of the brake fluid.
The brake fluid must comply with one of the
following standards or specifications:
● VW 50114
● FMVSS 116 DOT4 CAUTION

Advice
“Fast-charging” a battery is dan
g erous and
requires a battery charger and special knowl-
edge. Fast charges should be performed by
an official technical service.
The battery caps should not be opened while
the battery is being charged. CAUTION
In vehicles fitted with the “Start-Stop” sys-
tem, the c h
arger cable cannot be directly con-
nected to the negative terminal of the vehicle
battery but must be attached to the engine
ground point ›››
page 53. Disconnecting and connecting the
b
att
er
y The following functions will either be inoper-
ativ
e or w
i
ll not work properly after discon-
necting and reconnecting the battery:
FunctionInstallation
Setting the clock››› page 97
The multifunction display data
is deleted››› page 99 Note
We recommend having the vehicle checked by
an authorised S EA
T dealer to guarantee the
correct working order of all electrical sys-
tems. Changing the battery
A replacement battery must have the same
cap
ac
ity, voltage, current rating and size as
the original. The appropriate types of battery
can be acquired from authorised SEAT deal-
ers.
We recommend having the battery changed
by an authorised SEAT dealer, where the new
battery will be correctly installed and the
original disposed of in line with regulations.
Automatic disconnection of electrical
equipment When heavily-charging a battery, the pro-
gr
amme sel
ect
ed by the electrical system
control unit prevents the battery from auto-
matically discharging. This may result in the
following:
● Increase in idling speed so that the alterna-
tor can s
upply more current to the electrical
system.
● The performance of certain electrical com-
ponents cou
ld be limited or some may switch
off temporarily, e.g. the heated seats, the
heated rear window, the 12 V power socket. Note
Despite any measures taken by the control
unit, the b att
ery could drain. e.g. with the en- gine is switched off, the key is turned in the
ignition for a lon
g period or the s
ide lights or
parking lights are switched on. The switching
off of certain electrical components does not
impair driving comfort and often the driver
will not even notice. 216
