The essentials

gearbox). A gear change will be recommended if the
g
e
ar

you are in is not the most economical
choice. If no gear-change is recommended, it
means that you are already in the most eco-
nomical gear.
Vehicles with a manual gearbox
The following display symbols ›››

Shifting down a gear CAUTION
The gear-change indicator is intended to help
sav e f

uel, but it is not intended to recom-
mend the right gear for all driving situations.
In certain situations, only the driver can
choose the correct gear (for instance when
overtaking, driving up a steep gradient or
towing a trailer). Note
The display disappears from the instrument
panel when

you press the clutch pedal. Outside temperature display
Outside temperature
When the outs
ide t
emper

ature is below +4°C
(+39°F), the “ice crystal” symbol (warning of
risk of freezing) is also displayed. At first, this
symbol flashes and then it remains lit until
the outside temperature rises above +6°C

. When the vehicle is at a standstill or when
travel

ling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be higher than the true
outside temperature as a result of the heat
produced by the engine.
The temperatures measured range from
-40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).

Vehicles with multifunction steering wheel
● Enter the submenu Driving data and

The engine reaches its operating temperature
when in normal driving conditions, the oil
temperature is between 80°C (180°F) and
120°C (250°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

Wh

at to do first ●
Park the vehicle on a horizontal surface
and in a saf e p

lace as far away from traffic as
possible.
● Apply the handbrake.
● Switch on the hazard warning lights.
● Manual gearbox: select the 1s
t gear.
● Automatic gearbox: Move the sel
ector lever
to position P.
● If you are towing a trailer, unhitch it from
your v
ehicle.
● Have the vehicle tool kit* ›››

 page 76
and the spare wheel ›››
 page 220 ready.
● Observe the applicable legislation for each
countr
y (reflective vest, warning triangles,
etc.).
● All occupants should leave the vehicle and
wait in a s
afe place (for instance behind the
roadside crash barrier). WARNING
● Alw a

ys observe the above steps and pro-
tect yourself and other road users.
● If you change the wheel on a slope, block
the wheel on the oppo
site side of the car with
a stone or similar to prevent the vehicle from
moving. 45

Emergencies
CAUTION
● Do not t o
w-start the engine. Risk of engine
damage! In vehicles with a catalytic convert-
er, fuel that has not been burned could reach
the catalytic converter and catch fire in it.
This could damage and destroy the catalytic
converter. You may use the battery from an-
other vehicle to help you start your engine
›››  page 53.
● If, due to a fault, there is no oil in the gear-
box, the car m
ay only be towed with the driv-
en wheels lifted clear of the road and trans-
ported on a special vehicle transporter or
trailer.
● If normal towing is not possible or if the ve-
hicle i
s to be towed for further than 50 km,
the vehicle must be transported on a special
vehicle transporter or trailer.
● The towrope should be slightly elastic to
reduce the lo
ad on both vehicles during tow-
ing. It is advisable to use a towrope made of
synthetic fibre or similar material only.
● Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle
and alwa
ys take care to avoid jerking the tow-
rope. When towing on a loose surface there is
always a risk of overloading and damaging
the anchorage points.
● Attach the towrope or towbar only to the
towline anc
horages or to the removable tow-
ing bracket ››› page 186, or ››› page 80. Note
● We r ec

ommend you use the towrope or tow-
bar available in the SEAT Original Accessories
programme from authorised SEAT dealers.
● Towing a vehicle requires a certain degree
of practic
al skill. Both drivers should be fa-
miliar with the technique required for towing.
Inexperienced drivers should not attempt to
tow away another vehicle or to have their ve-
hicle towed.
● Note the legal regulations concerning tow-
ing, par
ticularly those regarding the signal-
ling of the towed and towing vehicle.
● The towrope must not be twisted, as under
cert
ain circumstances this could unscrew the
front towline anchorage. Anchoring the front tow line

Emergencies
●
Prot ect
the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent the entry of dust or humidity as they can
damage the electrical system.
● Always carefully remove the fuse box cov-
ers and r
efit them correctly to avoid problems
with your vehicle. Note
● One c omponent m

ay have more than one
fuse.
● Several components may run on a single
fuse.
● In the

vehicle, there are more fuses than
those indicat
ed in this chapter. These should
only be changed by a specialised workshop.
● Positions not containing a fuse do not ap-
pear in the fo
llowing tables.
● Some of the equipment listed in the tables
below pert
ain only to certain versions of the
model or are optional extras.
● Please note that the above lists, while cor-
rect at
the time of printing, are subject to
change. Fuses in the dash panel

P – Parking position
In thi s
po

sition, the driven wheels are me-
chanically locked.
The parking position can only be selected
when the vehicle is stationary.
If you want to move the selector lever from
this position, press the interlock button on
the selector lever knob while pressing down
on the brake pedal.
If the battery is drained, the selector lever
cannot be moved from position P.
R – Reverse gear
R ev
er

se gear must be engaged only when the
vehicle is stationary and the engine is idling.
To move the selector lever to position R from
positions P or N, press the interlock button
on the selector lever knob and press down on
the brake pedal.
The reverse lights come on when the selector
lever is in position R and the ignition is on.
N – Neutral (idling)
Neutr al

more than 2 seconds) to position D or R at
speeds of less than 5 km/h (3 mph) and
when the vehicle is stationary, press down on
the brake pedal.
D – Drive (forwards)
In thi s
po

sition, the gearbox automatically

on engine requirements, the driving speed
and the gear shift programme.
To move the selector lever to position D from
position N at speeds of less than 5 km/h (3
mph) and when the vehicle is stationary,
press down on the brake pedal.
In some situations (e.g. on mountain roads or
when towing a trailer or caravan), it can be
advantageous to switch temporarily to the
