Warranty
Fault
-free operation warranty SEAT Authorised Services ensure the perfect
condition of ne
w v
ehicles. Check the pur-
chase agreement or complementary addi-
tional documentation provided by your Tech-
nical Service to see the conditions and the
terms of the warranty. Consult further infor-
mation in this regard in your SEAT Official
Service. Vehicle maintenance
Maint enance and cl
eaning
Basic observations Regular and careful care helps to maintain
the v
alue of your v
ehicle. In addition, it may
become a prerequisite to demand the war-
ranty in the event of corrosion damage and
deficiencies in the paint coat of the body-
work.
Specialised workshops have the necessary
care products. Please follow the instructions
for application on the packaging. WARNING
Maintenance
Do not use a nozzle that sprays the water out
in a dir ect str
eam or one that has a rotating
jet for forcing off dirt.
The water temperature must not exceed
60°C.
Automatic car washes
Spray the vehicle before starting the car
wash.
Make sure that the windows and the panor-
amic sunroof* are closed and the windscreen
wipers are deactivated. Bear in mind the in-
structions of the car wash tunnel operator,
especially if your vehicle has detachable
parts.
Use of car washes without brushes if possible.
Washing by hand
Clean your vehicle from top to bottom with a
soft sponge or with a brush. Only use clean-
ing products that do not contain solvents.
Washing vehicles with a matte paint by
hand
To prevent damage to the vehicle when
washing it, first remove the thicker dust and
dirt. To remove traces of insects, grease and
fingerprints, it is best to use a special cleaner
for matte paint. Apply the product with a microfibre cloth. To
avoid damaging the surf
ace of the paint, do
not apply too much pressure.
Rinse with plenty of water. Then clean it with
a neutral cleaning product and a soft microfi-
bre cloth.
Rinse the vehicle again with plenty of water
and then leave it to dry. Remove traces of
water with a leather cloth. WARNING
Accessories and modifications to the vehicle
Any r etro-fitted equipment which has a di-
r ect effect on the vehicle and/or the way it is
driven, such as a cruise control system or
electronically-controlled suspension, must
be approved for use in your vehicle and bear
the e mark (the European Union's authorisa-
tion symbol).
If any additional electrical devices are fit-
ted which do not serve to control the vehicle
itself (for instance a refrigerator box, laptop
or ventilator fan, etc.), they must bear the & sign (manufacturer conformity declaration in
the European Union). WARNING
Accessories, for example telephone hold-
ers or cup hol ders, shoul
d never be fitted
on the covers, or within the working range
of the airbags. Otherwise, there is a danger
of injury if the airbag is triggered in an acci-
dent. Technical modifications
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components, softw
ar
e, wiring or data transfer
in the vehicle may cause malfunctioning.
You will appreciate that your SEAT dealership
cannot be held liable for any damage
caused by modifications and/or work per-
formed incorrectly. For this reason we recommend asking official
SEAT service centres t
o do any necessary
work using genuine SEAT parts®. WARNING
Incorrectly performed modifications or
other w ork on your v
ehicle can lead to mal-
functions and cause accidents. Radio telephones and office equip-
ment
Radio transmitters (fixed installation)
Any r
etr
ofit installations of radio transmitters
in the vehicle require prior approval. SEAT
generally authorises in-vehicle installations
of approved types of radio transmitters provi-
ded that:
Indications about the technical data
Weights Load on the roof
The maximum authorised r
oof l
oad for your
vehicle is 75 kg.
Empty weight, total weight, axle loads
The empty weight of the vehicle with driver
(75 kg) was calculated according to the (EU)
1230/2012 standard. Optional equipment can
increase the empty weight, which means that
the possible useful load decreases propor-
tionally.
Trailer weight
The maximum permitted drawbar load on the
ball head of the towing bracket is 50 kg. WARNING
The values indicated for the maximum per-
mitt ed w
eights must not be exceeded.
There is a risk of accident and damage! 303
