Particular characteristics of the Flexible
Service

Regarding the

Flexible Service

the oil change

service only has to be performed when the ve-
hicle needs it. To calculate when you have to
carry out this service, take into account the in-
dividual conditions of use and personal driving

style. A major component of the flexible service
the use of LongLife oil instead of conventional
engine oil.
Bear in mind the information about the specifi-
cations of the engine oil according to the VW
standard

page 275

If you do not want to the flexible service you
can select the fixed service. However, a fixed
service may affect service costs.

The Service

Advisor will gladly advise you.

At SEAT, the dates of the services are indicated
by the service intervals display:

●

on the instrument panel

page 29

●

in the infotainment system: menu

> Set-

tings > Service

;

> Vehicle sta-

tus > Service

page 35

The service interval display gives information
for service dates that involve an engine oil
change or an inspection. When the time for the
corresponding service comes, additional work
required, such as the change of brake fluid and
the spark plugs, can be carried out.

Information about the terms of use

The service intervals and groups are usually
based on

normal conditions of use

If, on the other hand, the vehicle is under

ad-

verse conditions of use

, some of the work

must be carried out before the next service pe-
riod or even between service intervals.

Conditions of use adverse include:

●

The use of fuel with a high sulphur content.

●

Frequent short trips.

●

Letting the engine idle for a long period of

time, as in the case of taxis.

●

Using the vehicle in areas with thick dust.

●

Frequent driving with a trailer (depending on

equipment).

●

Using the vehicle mostly in situations with a

lot of traffic and stops (e.g. in the city).

●

Using the vehicle mostly in winter.

This applies especially for the following
parts (depending on equipment):

●

Dust and pollen filter

●

Air Care allergen filter

●

Air filter

Maintenance

Vehicle upkeep and clean-
ing

Basic observations

Regular and careful care helps to maintain the
value of your vehicle. In addition, it may be-
come a prerequisite to demand the warranty
in the event of corrosion damage and deficien-
cies in the paint coat of the bodywork.
Specialised workshops have the necessary
care products. Please follow the instructions for
application on the packaging.

WARNING

●

Cleaning products and other materials

used for car care can be damaging to your
health if misused.

●

Always keep care products in a safe place,

out of the reach of children. Danger of poi-
soning!

For the sake of the environment

●

When purchasing car care products, chose

products that are compatible with the envi-
ronment.

●

The waste from car-care products should

not be disposed of with ordinary household
waste.

Washing the vehicle

The longer you take to clean the tanks, e.g. re-
mains of insects, bird excrements, tree resin or
anti frost salt adhered to your vehicle, the more
damage it can cause to the surface. High tem-
peratures, for instance strong sunlight, further
intensify the damage.
Before washing the car, soften the dirt using
plenty of water.
To remove encrusted dirt such as insects, bird
droppings or tree resin, use a lot of water and a
microfibre cloth.
Have the underside of the vehicle washed after
the end of the anti frost salts in winter.

High pressure cleaning equipment

When washing the vehicle with a high-pressure
cleaner, always follow the operating instruc-
tions for the equipment. This applies particu-
larly to the operating pressure and the distance
between the spraying water.
Do not point the jet directly towards the side
windows, doors or covers; the same applies for
the tyres, rubber hoses, damping material, sen-
sors or camera lenses. Keep a distance of at
least 40 cm.
Do not remove snow and ice with a high-pres-
sure cleaner.
Do not use a nozzle that sprays the water out in
a direct stream 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 are closed and
the windscreen wipers are deactivated. Bear
in mind the instructions of the car wash tunnel
operator, especially if your vehicle has detach-
able 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 cleaning
products that do not contain solvents.

Polishing

Polishing is only necessary when the vehicle's
paintwork has lost its gloss and cannot be re-
stored with care products.
Do not polish matt painted surfaces! If the
paintwork is polished, the surface will be irrep-
arably damaged.

Washing vehicles with a matte paint by hand

To prevent damage to the vehicle when wash-
ing it, first remove the thicker dust and dirt.
To remove traces of insects, grease and finger-
prints, it is best to use a special cleaner for
matte paint.

Maintenance

305

Vehicle upkeep and cleaning

Neutral soap solution: maximum of two tablespoons in 1 l of water.

Apply the product with a microfibre cloth. To
avoid damaging the surface 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 microfibre
cloth.
Rinse the vehicle again with plenty of water and
then leave it to dry. Remove traces of water
with a leather cloth.

WARNING

●

Only wash the vehicle with the ignition

switched off or according to the specifica-
tions of the car wash tunnel operator. Acci-
dent hazard!

●

When cleaning the underbody or the inside

of the wheel arches, protect yourself from
sharp or pointy metal parts. Risk of cut!

●

After cleaning the brakes could act more

slowly due to moisture or, in winter, the ice on
the brake discs and pads. Accident hazard!
In this case the brakes should be dried by
pressing the brake pedal several times.

WARNING

Incorrect use of high-pressure cleaning
equipment can cause damage. This can lead
to accidents and serious injuries.

●

Never direct the jet of the high-pressure

cleaning equipment directly at the orange
high-voltage cables, the high-voltage sys-
tem components or the 12-volt on-board net-
work.

NOTICE

●

Before washing the vehicle in an automatic

car wash, please make sure to retract the
exterior mirrors to prevent them from being
damaged. The electric folding exterior mir-
rors should only be folded/unfolded electri-
cally!

●

Do not wash the vehicle in direct sunlight.

Risk of damaging the paint job!

●

Do not use sponges, abrasive household

sponges or similar to clean insect remains.
Risk of damaging the surface!

●

Vehicle parts with matte paint:

–

Do not use polish or hard wax. Risk of

damaging the surface!

–

Never select washing programmes that

include the use of wax. This could damage
the appearance of matte paint.

–

Do not put stickers or magnets on parts

with matte paint, as removing them may
damage the paint.

For the sake of the environment

The car should only be washed in special
wash bays. These places are prepared to
prevent oily water from getting into the pub-
lic drains.

Cleaning the exterior

Below can be found some recommendations on
the cleaning and upkeep of individual vehicle

and repair work

Introduction

Always ask your dealer or specialist retailer for
advice before purchasing accessories and re-
placement parts.
Your vehicle is designed to offer a high standard
of active and passive safety. For this reason, we
recommend that you ask a SEAT Official Serv-
ice for advice before fitting accessories or re-
placement parts. Your SEAT Official Service has
the latest information from the manufacturer
and can recommend accessories and replace-
ment parts which are suitable for your require-
ments. They can also answer any questions
you might have regarding official regulations.
We recommend only using

SEAT accessories

and

genuine SEAT parts

®. SEAT has tested

these parts and accessories for suitability, reli-
ability and safety. SEAT Official Services have
the necessary experience and facilities to en-
sure that the parts are installed correctly and
professionally.
Although SEAT continuously monitors the mar-
ket, it cannot judge whether products

not au-

thorised by SEAT

meet the vehicle’s reliability,

safety and suitability requirements. SEAT there-
fore accepts no liability for these products,
even if, in certain cases, they are authorised
by an officially recognised technical inspection
institute or official body.

Any

retro-fitted equipment

which has a di-

rect effect on the vehicle and/or the way it
is driven, such as a cruise control system

electronically-controlled suspension

, must

be approved for use in your vehicle and bear
the

mark (the European Union's authorisation

symbol).
If

any additional electrical devices

are fitted

which do not serve to control the vehicle itself
(for instance a refrigerator box, laptop or venti-
lator fan, etc.), they must bear the marking
(manufacturer conformity declaration in the Eu-
ropean Union).

WARNING

Accessories, for example telephone holders
or cup holders, should never be fitted on the
covers, or within the working range of the air-
bags. Otherwise, there is a danger of injury if
the airbag is triggered in an accident.

Technical modifications

Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components, software, 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 performed incor-
rectly.
For this reason we recommend asking official
SEAT service centres to do any necessary work
using

genuine SEAT

parts®.

WARNING

Incorrectly performed modifications or other
work on your vehicle can lead to malfunc-
tions and cause accidents.

Radio telephones and office equip-
ment

Radio transmitters (fixed installation)

Any retrofit installations of radio transmitters
in the vehicle require prior approval. SEAT gen-
erally authorises in-vehicle installations of ap-
proved types of radio transmitters provided
that:

●

The antenna is installed correctly.

●

The aerial is installed on the exterior of the

vehicle (and shielded cables are used together
with non-reflective aerial trimming).

●

The effective transmitting power does not ex-

ceed 10 Watts at the aerial base.
A SEAT Official Service and specialised work-
shop will be able to inform you about options
for installing and operating radio transmitters
with a higher transmitting power.

Mobile radio transmitters

Commercial mobile telephones or radio equip-
ment might interfere with the electronics of your
vehicle and cause malfunctions. This may be
due to:

310

Maintenance

●

No external aerial.

●

External aerial incorrectly installed.

●

Transmitting power more than 10 W.

You must, therefore, do not operate portable
mobile telephones or radio equipment

inside

the vehicle

without a properly installed external

aerial

Please note also that the maximum range of
the equipment can only be achieved with an

external

aerial.

Business equipment

Retrofit installation of business or private equip-
ment in the vehicle is permitted, provided the
equipment cannot interfere with the driver's im-
mediate control of the vehicle and that any
such equipment carries the mark. Any retro-
fit equipment that could influence the driver's
control of the vehicle must have a type appro-
val for your vehicle and must carry the

mark.

WARNING

Mobile telephones or radio equipment which
is operated inside the vehicle without a prop-
erly installed external aerial can create ex-
cessive magnetic fields that could cause a
health hazard.

Note

●

The posterior fitting of electric and elec-

tronic equipment in this vehicle affects its li-
cence and could lead to the withdrawal of
the vehicle registration document under cer-
tain circumstances.

Information stored by the
control units

Storage of accident data (Event Data
Recorder)

Your vehicle has an event data recorder (EDR).
The EDR’s function is to record data in the event
of a mild or serious accident. These data are
used to support the analysis of how different
vehicle systems behaved.
The EDR records, over a reduced time range
(normally 10 seconds or less), dynamic driving
data and data from the restraint systems, such
as:

●

How different vehicle systems worked.

●

Whether the driver and the occupants were

wearing their seat belts.

●

How hard the acceleration or brake pedal

was pressed.

●

Vehicle speed.

●

GPS position.

These data will provide a better understanding
of the circumstances of the accident.
Data from the driving assist systems are also
recorded. This includes data such as whether
the systems were inactive or active and if such
action had an impact on the vehicle’s dynamic
behaviour, changing its path in the aforemen-
tioned situations, accelerating or decelerating
the vehicle.
Depending on vehicle equipment, this includes
data from systems such as:

●

the adaptive cruise control

●

the lane assist system

●

parking assistants

●

the emergency brake functions.

The EDR data are only recorded in specific ac-
cident situations. No data are recorded in nor-
mal driving conditions.
No audio or video data inside or around the
vehicle are recorded. Under no circumstances
are personal data such as name, age, or gen-
der recorded. Nevertheless, third parties (such
as criminal proceedings authorities) may relate

the contents of the EDR data to other data
sources and create a personal reference in the
context of an accident investigation.
In order to read the EDR data it is necessary
to access (if legally permitted to do so) the
vehicle's ODB (“On-Board-Diagnose”) interface
while the vehicle is switched on.
SEAT will not have access to EDR data unless
the owner (or, in “Leasing” cases, the lessee or
hirer) gives their consent. There may be excep-
tions to this, depending on legal or contractual
provisions.
Due to legal requirements in safety-related
products, SEAT may use the EDR data for field
research and in order to improve vehicle system
quality. Any data used for the purposes of re-
search will be treated anonymously (in other
words, no reference will be made to the vehicle,
their owner or the lessee/hirer).

nical data

Vehicle identification data

The values indicated in the technical data may
differ depending on optional equipment or ver-
sion of the model, as well as in the case of spe-
cial vehicles and equipment for certain coun-
tries.
The information in the official vehicle documen-
tation takes precedence at all times.

Abbreviations used in the Technical Specifi-
cations section

Kilowatt, engine power measure-
ment.

Horsepower (not currently used),

of the knock resistance of petrol.

Vehicle ID number

The vehicle ID number can be found in the fol-
lowing places:

●

One the vehicle's data label.

●

In front, under the windscreen.

●

To the right in the engine compartment.

Type plate

The type plate is located on the vehicle’s right
hand door frame. Vehicles for certain export
countries do not have a type plate.

Performance

The values apply only to optimal road and
weather conditions.
The vehicle’s performance has been calculated
without any equipment that would affect it, e.g.
accessories.

Fuel consumption

Approved consumption values are derived from
measurements performed or supervised by
certified EU laboratories, according to the legis-
lation in force at the time (for more information,
see the Publications Office of the European
Union on the EUR-Lex website: © European Un-
ion, http://eur-lex.europa.eu/) and apply to the
specified vehicle characteristics.

The values relating to fuel consumption and
CO

emissions can be found in the documenta-

tion provided to the purchaser of the vehicle at
the time of purchase.
Fuel consumption and CO

emissions depend

on the equipment/features of each individual
vehicle, as well as on the driving style, road
conditions, traffic conditions, environmental
conditions, load or number of passengers.

Tank level

Petrol engines

40 l, 7 l reserve

Natural gas en-
gine

approx. 13.8 kg

Additional petrol tank: 9 l, of

which approx 7.6 l is a reserve

The capacity depends on the efficacy and char-

acteristics of the natural gas pumps. The capacity
indicated is based on a minimum loading pressure
of 200 bar.

The kerb weight values apply to the vehicle
as ready to drive with a driver (75 kg), oper-
ating fluids and, if applicable, tools and the
spare wheel. The kerb weight increases with
optional equipment and retrofitting of accesso-
ries, which reduces the possible payload ac-
cordingly.
