2020 Seat Ibiza instrument panel

Operation
Things to note
If the v ehicl
e is left parked for a long time im-
mediately after refuelling, the natural gas lev-
el indicator may not accurately indicate the
same level shown after refuelling when the
vehicle is started up again. This is not due to a
leak in the system, but to a drop in pressure in
the gas tank for technical reasons after a
cooling phase just after refuelling. Note
In vehicles with natural gas engines, the
petr ol t

ank fuel level gauge may display
the refuelled amount with a slight delay
(depending on the refuelled amount). Engine coolant temperature indica-

With the ignition on and without light activa-
tion, the analogue instrument panel lighting
remains activated in daytime light conditions.
The lighting is reduced as the exterior light di-
minishes. In some cases, e.g. when driving
through a tunnel without the  function ac- tive, the instrument panel lighting may even
switch off. The objective of this function is to
provide the driver with a visual indication that
he or she should activate the dipped beam.
If your vehicle is equipped with a digital in-
strument panel (Digital SEAT Cockpit), the following message will appear

Ambient light*
The ambient light lights up the area of the
centre console and the footwell area and,
depending on the version, the front door pan-

It will be switched on at full brightness when
the doors are opened and the lights will be
dimmed during driving, when the light selec-

has been removed and the courtesy light
position selected. This prevents the battery
from discharging. 121
