Important information about wheel nuts
Factory-fitted rims and wheel nuts are spe-
cially matched during construction. There-
fore, if different rims are fitted, the correct
wheel nuts with the right length and heads
must be used. This ensures that wheels are
fitted securely and that the brake system
functions correctly.
In certain circumstances, you should not even
use wheel nuts from vehicles of the same
model.
In wheels with full hubcaps, the anti-theft
locking bolt must be threaded onto positions
›››
2
or
3
, taking the tyre valve’s po-
sition as reference
1
. Otherwise it will not be
possible to mount the hubcap.
WARNING
If the wheel nuts are not properly tight-
ened, they could come loose while driving
and cause an accident, serious injury and
loss of vehicle control.
●
Use only wheel nuts which correspond to
the rim in question.
●
Never use different wheel nuts.
●
Wheel nuts and threads should be clean,
free of oil and grease, and it should be pos-
sible to screw them easily.
●
To loosen and tighten wheel nuts, only
use the wheel wrench that came with the
car from the factory.
●
The wheel nuts should only be loosened
slightly (about one turn) before raising the
vehicle with the jack. Risk of accident!
●
Never apply grease or oil to wheel nuts or
to the wheel hub threads. Even if the bolts
have been tightened to the prescribed tor-
que, they could come loose while driving.
●
Never loosen the screwed joints of wheel
rims with bolted ring trims.
●
If wheel nuts are tightened below the
prescribed torque, the bolts and rims could
come loose while driving. If tightening tor-
que is too high, the wheel nuts or threads
can be damaged.

●
Rest the jack (vehicles tools) on firm
ground. If necessary use a large, strong
board or similar support. If the surface is slip-
pery (for example tiles) place the jack on a
rubber mat or similar to prevent it from slip-
ping

Emergencies
●
Find the support point on the strut (sunken
area) closest to the wheel to be changed
›››
●
Turn the jack crank handle, located below
the strut support point, to raise it until the
tab
1
is below the housing provi-
ded.
●
Align the jack so that tab
1
“grips” onto
the housing provided on the strut and the mo-
bile base
2
is resting on the ground. The
base plate
2
should fall vertically with re-
spect to the support point
1
.
●
Continue turning the jack until the wheel is
slightly lifted off the ground.
WARNING
The factory-supplied jack is only designed
for changing wheels on this model. On no
account attempt to use it for lifting heavier
vehicles or other loads. Risk of injury.
●
Make sure the jack remains stable. If the
surface is slippery or soft, the jack could
slip or sink, respectively, with the conse-
quent risk of causing injuries.
●
Lift the vehicle using only the jack sup-
plied from the factory. Other jacks, even
those approved for other SEAT models
could slip, with the consequent risk of in-
jury.
●
Place the jack only at the support points
provided on the strut and align it. Other-
wise, the jack could slip because it does
not have sufficient grip on the vehicle: risk
of injury!
●
You should never place a body limb such
as an arm or leg under a raised vehicle that
is solely supported by the jack.
●
If you have to work underneath the vehi-
cle, you must use suitable stands addition-
ally to support the vehicle, there is a risk of
accident!.
●
Never raise the vehicle if it is tilting to one
side or the engine is running.
●
Never start the engine when the vehicle is
raised. The vehicle may come loose from
the jack due to the engine vibrations.
CAUTION
The vehicle must not be raised on the
crossbar. Place the jack only at the support
points provided on the strut and align it.
Otherwise, the vehicle may be damaged.
Removing and installing a wheel
Change the wheel after loosening the wheel
nuts and raising the vehicle with the jack.
When removing/fitting the wheel, the rim may
hit and damage the brake disc. For this rea-
son, please take care and get a second per-
son to assist you.
Taking off the wheel
●
Unscrew the wheel nuts using the box
spanner and place them on a clean surface.
●
Take off the wheel.
Putting on the spare wheel
Check the direction of rotation of the tyre
›››
●
Place the spare wheel or temporary spare
wheel into position.
●
Screw on the wheel nuts in position and
tighten them loosely with a box spanner.
●
To tighten the anti-theft locking wheel nuts
use the corresponding adaptor.
●
Carefully lower the vehicle using the jack.
●
Use the wheel spanner to tighten all of the
wheel nuts clockwise. Tighten the bolts in di-
agonal pairs (not in a circle).
●
Put the caps, trim or full hubcap back on.
The wheel nuts should be clean and turn
easily. Before fitting the spare wheel, inspect
the wheel condition and hub mounting surfa-
ces. These surfaces must be clean before fit-
ting the wheel.
Tightening torque of the wheel nuts
The recommended tightening torque for
wheel nuts for steel and alloy wheels is
120 Nm
. After changing a wheel, have the
46
Self-help
tightening torque checked immediately with a
torque wrench that is working perfectly.
Before checking
tightening torque, have any
rusty wheel nuts that are difficult to screw re-
placed and clean the wheel hub threads.
Never apply grease or oil to wheel nuts or to
the wheel hub threads. Even if the bolts have
been tightened to the prescribed torque, they
could come loose while driving.
Tyres with directional tread pattern
Tyres with directional tread pattern have
been designed to operate best when rotating
in only one direction. An arrow on the tyre
sidewall indicates the direction of rotation on
tyres with directional tread. Always observe
the indicated direction of rotation in order to
guarantee optimum grip and help avoid
aquaplaning, excessive noise and wear.
If the tyre is mounted in the opposite direction
of rotation, drive with extreme caution, as the
tyre is no longer being used correctly. This is
of particular importance when the road sur-
face is wet. Change the tyre as soon as pos-
sible or remount it with the correct direction
of rotation.
Works after changing a wheel
●
Alloy wheels:
replace the wheel bolt caps.
●
Plate wheels:
replace the wheel hubcap .
●
Return all tools to their proper storing loca-
tion.
●
If the replaced wheel does not fit in the
spare wheel housing, store it safely in the lug-
gage compartment
.
●
Check the tyre pressure of the newly moun-
ted tyre as soon as possible.
●
In vehicles fitted with a tyre pressure indica-
tor, adjust the pressure and store it in memory
›››
●
Have the tightening torque of the wheel
nuts checked as soon as possible with a tor-
que wrench
. Meanwhile, drive
carefully.
●
Have the flat tyre replaced as quickly as
possible.

Changing the rear wiper blade
The windscreen wiper blades are supplied as
standard with a layer of graphite. This layer is
responsible for ensuring that the wipe is silent.
If the graphite layer is damaged, the noise of
the water as it is wiped across the windscreen
will be louder.
Check the condition of the wiper blades reg-
ularly.
If the wipers scrape across the
glass
, they should be changed if they are
damaged, or cleaned if they are dirty
.
If this does not produce the desired results,
the setting angle of the windscreen wiper
arms might be incorrect. They should be
checked by a specialised workshop and cor-
rected if necessary.
Damaged windscreen wiper blades should
be replaced immediately. These are availa-
ble from qualified workshops.

Tow start and towing
Introduction
Tow-starting
means starting the engine of
the vehicle while another pulls it.
Towing
means one vehicle pulling another
that is not roadworthy.
Always consider the legal provisions relating
to tow-starting and towing.
For technical reasons, towing a vehicle
with a discharged battery is not allowed.
The jump start should be used instead
›››
.
If the vehicle comes with the Keyless Access
system, towing is only allowed with the igni-
tion on!
The vehicle battery drains if the vehicle is
towed with the engine switched off and the
ignition connected. Depending on the battery
charge status, the drop in voltage may be so
large, even after just a few minutes, that no
electrical device in the vehicle may work e.g.
the hazard warning lights. In vehicles with the
Keyless Access system, the steering wheel
could lock
.
WARNING
A vehicle with no power should never be
towed.
●
When towing, never remove the ignition
key or disconnect the ignition with the start
button. Otherwise, the electronic lock of
the steering column could suddenly be-
come blocked and it would be impossible
to steer the vehicle. This could cause an
accident, serious injury and loss of control
of the vehicle.
●
If during towing the vehicle runs out of
power, stop towing immediately and re-
quest the assistance of specialist person-
nel.
WARNING
Vehicle handling and braking capacity
change considerably during towing. Please
observe the following instructions to mini-
mise the risk of serious accidents and in-
jury:
●
As the driver of the vehicle being towed:
–
You should depress the brake much
harder as the brake servo does not op-
erate. Pay the utmost attention to avoid
crashing into the towing vehicle.
–
More strength is required at the steer-
ing wheel as the power steering does
not operate when the engine is switch-
ed off.
●
As the driver of the towing vehicle:
–
Accelerate with particular care and
caution.
–
Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
–
Brake earlier than usual and more
smoothly.
CAUTION
●
To avoid damaging the vehicle, for exam-
ple the paint, remove and replace the lid
and towing eye carefully.
●
Unburnt fuel could enter the catalytic
converter and damage it during towing.
Instructions for tow-starting
Vehicle's should not generally be tow-
started. The jump start should be used in-
stead
.
For technical reasons, towing the following
vehicles is
not
allowed:
●
Vehicles with an automatic gearbox.
●
If the vehicle battery is discharged, be-
cause in vehicles with the Keyless Access
locking and ignition system the steering re-
mains locked and the electronic parking
brake cannot be deactivated nor can the
»
51
Emergencies
electronic lock of the steering column be re-
leased if they are activated.
●
If the battery is flat, it is possible that the
engine control units may not operate correct-
ly.
However, if the vehicle must absolutely be
tow-started (in the case of manual gear-
boxes):
●
Engage the 2nd or 3rd gear.
●
Keep the clutch pressed down.
●
Switch on the ignition and the hazard warn-
ing lights of both vehicles.
●
Once both vehicles are moving, release the
clutch.
●
Once the engine starts, press the clutch
and disengage the gear to avoid colliding
with the towing vehicle.
CAUTION
●
When tow-starting, unburnt fuel could
enter the catalytic converter and damage
it.
●
Do not tow a vehicle for more than 50 m
in attempt to start it. There is risk of dam-
age to the catalytic converter.
Towing instructions
Towing requires some expertise and experi-
ence, especially when using a tow rope. Both
drivers should be familiar with the difficulties
involved in towing. For this reason, inexper-
ienced drivers should abstain from towing.
During towing, it should be ensured that no
impermissible tractive forces or shocks are
generated. When towing on an unpaved
road, there is always a risk of overloading and
damaging the anchorage points.
During towing, the towing vehicle can signal
the change of direction even with the hazard
warning lights turned on. To do so, at the
same time, the turn signal lever must be oper-
ated with ignition switched on. Meanwhile, the
hazard warning lights will go off. When the
turn signal lever is returned to the rest posi-
tion, the hazard warning lights will be auto-
matically reactivated.
Notes for the driver of the towed vehicle
●
Leave the ignition on, so that the steering is
not blocked, and the electronic parking brake
may be deactivated and the turn signals and
wash/wipe operated.
●
More strength is required at the steering
wheel as the power steering does not oper-
ate when the engine is switched off.
●
You should depress the brake much harder
as the brake servo does not operate. Avoid
hitting the towing vehicle.
●
Bear in mind the information and instruc-
tions in the manual of the vehicle to be towed.
Notes for the driver of the towing vehicle
●
Accelerate with particular care and cau-
tion. Avoid sharp manoeuvres.
●
Brake earlier than usual and smoothly.
●
Bear in mind the information and instruc-
tions in the manual of the towed vehicle.
Tow rope or tow bar
It is safer for the vehicle to be towed using a
tow bar, avoiding damage to the vehicle. A
tow rope should only be used if a tow bar is
not available.
A tow rope should be slightly elastic to avoid
damage to both vehicles. It is advisable to
use a tow rope made of synthetic fibre or sim-
ilarly elastic material.
Only attach the tow rope or the tow bar to
the towing eyes provided or a towing bracket.
If the vehicle has a
factory-fitted towing de-
vice,
towing with a tow bar is
only
permitted
if it has been specially designed to be instal-
led on a tow hitch
.

Cases where towing the vehicle is not per-
mitted
●
If, due to a fault, the gearbox is out of lubri-
cant.
●
If the battery is flat and the steering cannot
be unlocked as a result, the electronic steer-
ing lock and electronic parking brake cannot
be disengaged.
●
If a distance above 50 km needs to be trav-
elled.
●
When, for example, after an accident, the
smooth rotation of the wheels or the steering
operation cannot be guaranteed.
When the vehicle is to tow another vehicle:
●
Observe legal requirements.
●
Keep in mind the instructions in the manual
on towing vehicles.
CAUTION
If there is no oil in the gearbox or no lubri-
cant in the automatic transmission the car
may only be towed with the driven wheels
lifted clear of the road, or transported on a
special car transporter or trailer.
Note
The vehicle can only be towed if the steer-
ing lock electronic gearbox lock is deacti-

Fuses
Introduction
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various
electrical components. Likewise, an electrical
component can be protected by several
fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the
problem has been solved. If a newly inserted
fuse blows after a short time, you must have
the electrical system checked by a special-
ised workshop as soon as possible.
WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system
can give serious electrical shocks, causing
burns and even death!
●
Never touch the electrical wiring of the
ignition system.
●
Take care not to cause short circuits in
the electrical system.
WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or
bridging a current circuit without fuses can
cause a fire and serious injury.
●
Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only
replace fuses with a fuse of the same am-
perage (same colour and markings) and
size.
●
Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, sta-
ple or similar.
CAUTION
●
To prevent damage to the vehicle's elec-
tric system, before replacing a fuse always
turn off the ignition, the lights and all elec-
trical elements and remove the key from
the ignition.
●
Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent the entry of dust or humidity as they
can damage the electrical system.
Note
●
One component may have more than one
fuse.
●
Several components may run on a single
fuse.
●
In the vehicle, there are more fuses than

Note
●
In the vehicle, there are more fuses than
those indicated in this chapter. These
should only be changed by a specialised
workshop.
●
Positions not containing a fuse do not ap-
pear in the following tables.
●
Some of the equipment listed in the ta-
bles below pertain only to certain versions
of the model or are optional extras.
●
Please note that the above lists, while
correct at the time of printing, are subject
to change.
Changing bulbs
Introduction
Changing bulbs requires a certain degree of
practical skill. If you are unsure, SEAT recom-
mends that you consult a technical service or
request assistance from a specialist. In gen-
eral a specialist is needed if, in addition to the
bulbs, other vehicle components require re-
moval.
Always use identical bulbs with the same
designation. The name can be found on the
base of the bulb holder.
Depending on how equipped the vehicle is,
there are different sets of headlights and tail
lights:
●
ECOLED (full-LED) main headlights

Fuses and bulbs
●
High (full-LED) main headlights
●

●

Full-LED headlight system
Full-LED headlights handle all light functions
(daylight, side light, turn signal, dipped beam
and route light) with light emitting diodes
(LEDs) as a light source.
Full-LED headlights are designed to last the
lifetime of the car and light bulbs cannot be
replaced. In case of headlight failure, go to an
authorised workshop to have it replaced.
Bulbs (12 V)
Depending on the level of equipment fitted in
the vehicle, LEDs may be used for part or all
of the interior and/or exterior lighting. LEDs
have an estimated life that exceeds that of
the vehicle. If an LED light fails, go to an au-
thorised workshop for its replacement.

WARNING
●
Bulbs are highly sensitive to pressure. The
glass can break when you touch the bulb,
causing injury.
●
When changing the bulbs, take care not
to injure yourself on parts with sharp
edges.
CAUTION
●
Remove the ignition key before working
on the electric system. Otherwise, a short
circuit could occur.
●
Switch off the lights and the parking light
before changing a bulb.
●
Take good care to avoid damaging any
components.
For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to
dispose of used bulbs in the proper manner.
Note
●
Depending on weather conditions (cold
or wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the
tail lights and the turn signals may be tem-
porarily misted. This has no influence on
the useful life of the lighting system. By
switching on the lights, the area through
which the beam of light is projected will
quickly be demisted. However, the edges
may continue to be misted.
●
Please check at regular intervals that all
lighting (especially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is
not only in the interest of your own safety,
but also that of all other road users.
