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
T u r n o n t h e
l i g h t s on the instrument panel.

Turning the reading light on and off The light controls may vary depending on the
v
ehicl
e version.
Luggage compartment lighting
The light is activated when the rear lid is
open, even when the ignition and lights are
turned off. For this reason, ensure that the
rear lid is always closed.
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-
els as well.
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-
tor is set to , or .
The intensity of the background light can be
adjusted through the infotainment system
menu. The colour can also be changed in
versions with lighting on the front door panel
(button ! S E T T , N G S ! B a c k -

). Note
If not all the vehicle doors are closed, the
int erior lights will be s
witched off after ap-
prox. 10 minutes, providing the ignition key
has been removed and the courtesy light
position selected. This prevents the battery
from discharging. 121

Al w
ays check the weight of the roof carrier
system, the cross bars and the weight of the
load to be transported and weigh them if
necessary. Never exceed the maximum au-
thorised roof load.
If you are using cross bars and a roof carrier
with a lower weight rating, you will not be
able to carry the maximum authorised roof
load. In this case, do not exceed the maxi-
mum weight limit for the roof carrier which is
listed in the fitting instructions.
Distributing a load
Distribute loads uniformly and secure them
correctly ››› .
Check att achments
Once the cr
oss bars and roof carrier system
have been installed, check the bolted con-
nections and attachments after a short jour-
ney and subsequently with a certain frequen-
cy. 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
