SEAT maintenance program
8SEAT maintenance programUsing these instructionsThis programme will indicate the work that should be pe riodically carried out 
on your vehicle in order to maintain the safety, reliability  and lifetime condi-
tions required.
Using the “vehicle  identification” data or the data in this document, the 
correct spare parts for your vehicle will be specified in ca se of repairs; even 
many years following the initial purchase.
We recommend that you keep this maintenance  programme with the vehicle 
documents. The Proof of service is one of the fundamental r equirements for 
warranty rights.
The maintenance programme shows the date of delive ry and this indicates 
the beginning of the vehicle guarantee.Maintenance ProgramThe SEAT maintenance programme is composed of di fferent inspection serv-
ices carried out according to the time since the vehi cle purchase or the 
mileage.
Each Inspection Service as well as an y required additional operation already 
has a pre-established work time. This will allow you to  know the total cost of 
the service beforehand.
. The SEAT Service Centre network is equipped with modern  technology and 
well-trained specialists. Many SEAT  Service Centres offer different value 
service packages
Adverse weather conditionsThe Service Centre “service consultant” will inform you  of any necessary addi-
tional work within the intervals defined by the Inspection Ser vice depending 
on the conditions and the environment  in which the vehicle is used. For 
example, for an oil change where the vehicle is use d only for frequent short 
journeys or is subject to extreme temperatures. Likewis e, when the vehicle is 
used in dusty conditions the air, dust  and pollen filter cartridges must be 
changed more often and  the timing belt checked.Diesel fuelThe Service Centre “service consultant” can provide inf ormation about which 
countries use fuel with a high sulphur content. In th ese cases, the oil must be 
changed every 7,500 km / 4,650 miles.

Other services available
14Other services availableLegal Inspection ServiceThe legal inspections must be carried out at the intervals 
prescribed.Many countries have legal requirements  obliging owners to have their vehicle 
tested at specified intervals with regards to security and oper ation as well as 
the exhaust gas composition. These revisions must be o verseen by officially 
authorised centres.
Your Authorised Service Centre can inform you about the  obligatory legally 
required inspections and can revise your vehicle withi n the framework of an 
Interval Inspection Service. This  will save both time and money.
The Authorised Service Centre can also carry out the oblig atory inspections at 
the request of the client.
Even if you do not wish to take advantage of this service an d decide to take 
your car to an officially authorised centre for revision, we r ecommend 
speaking to the person in charge of your Authori sed Service Centre first.
This person will be able to tell you if any points need att ention so that your 
car does not fail the test and have to be re-tested.Approved spare partsAll parts of your vehicle have been approved by SEAT , especially those parts 
relating directly to security. For this  reason, the parts used in the Programmed 
Inspection Services or in any vehicle repair must corresp ond exactly to the 
manufacturer-defined requirements. Ap proved SEAT spare parts have been  designed especially for your vehicle. Fo
r this reason, we recommend the use 
of approved SEAT spares always.
In the SEAT Authorised Service Centres you will find th e most frequently used 
SEAT approved spare parts. If, exceptionally, the necessar y parts are not in 
stock, in general, they can be obtained rapidly.
The SEAT Service Centres in the EU provide a 24 month gua rantee
1) with Orig-
inal Spare parts from the date they are  fitted or sold. Thus, it will be conven-
ient to conserve the original invoice from the Auth orised Service Centre as 
proof of the existing warranty.
More information about this may be ob tained form your Authorised Service 
Centre.
Approved SEAT spare partsThe approved spare parts, according to the manufact urer specifications, 
represent an additional available service and facili tating the replacement of 
entire assemblies, in general: lighte r engine, gearbox, cylinder heads, 
control units, electric elements, etc.
Of course these are  Approved parts and, as they have the same class as the 
manufacturer parts, they avail of the same SEAT ap proved spare parts 
warranty.
However, these parts are considerably cheaper as t hey are factory-recondi-
tioned used parts. Conserve the invoice for SEAT  exchange parts as proof of 
the start of the existing warranty.1)The warranty is not available for all export mark ets. For information, please ask for in-
formation at the SEAT Authorised Service Centre.
