bient temperature and the battery having a
low charge level.

Practical tips
Pausing or ending the charging process
Pr ess the char
ging mode button ››› Fig. 151 to
pause the charging process. The charging
connector remains locked. The charging
process can be reactivated by pressing the
charging mode button again.
If you wish to unplug the charging connector,
unlock the vehicle using the key.
If the charging ends automatically and the
high-voltage battery is charged:

ing ››› page 172.
The LED flashes yellow: The parking
lock P is not engaged.
The yellow LED lights up briefly: The
charging connector is plugged into the
charging socket and the vehicle has de-
tected it.
The yellow LED lights up permanently:
No electrical network has been detected.
Check the power supply and the electri-
cal network. When using the charging ca-
ble for the electrical network, the protec-
tion device will display the status of the
network. Seek specialist assistance.
The red LED lights up permanently: It
has not been possible to lock the charg-
ing connector. Remove the charging con-
nector from the charging socket and plug
in again. If the fault continues, seek spe-
cialist assistance.
The LED flashes red: There is a fault in
the charging system. Seek specialist as-
sistance.
When the charging process is active, this is
displayed on the instrument panel by means
of a control lamp, and on the remaining
charge time is also displayed ››› page 60.

173Remaining charge time
The remaining charge time of the vehicle can
be viewed on the instrument panel display
and on the application available for mobile
phones (SEAT CONNECT services).
The charge time using a charge cable for
power sockets may take over 10 hours.
The e-Manager displays a maximum charge
time of 10:30 hours, yet this time may be
greater.

How to maintain the protection device and
the char ging connect
ors in good condition:

Practical tips
The charging cable supplied from the factory
all o
ws for charging with a maximum charging
current of 16 amperes. It may not be possible
to charge the vehicle at some charging sta-
tions which provide higher charging currents.
Bear in mind the information and indications
of the charging station.
Charging in Norway
There are many electrical installations in Nor-
way whose technical standards differ from
those applicable to the rest of Europe.
Only use a charging cable with a 5 x 6 mm 2
››› section. Bear in mind the figure that ap-
pears on the char ging cabl

e.
Before travelling to Norway, check whether
your charging cable for charging stations
meets the requirements mentioned above. CAUTION
Charging the high-voltage battery with an
inappr opriat

e charging cable could cause
short circuits, serious injuries and fatal
electrical shocks.

High-voltage battery
If it is still possible to charge, in addition to the
oper ating displ
ay flashing, the red warning
lamp ››› Fig. 158 will also appear. The charg-
ing current is automatically reduced. The
charging current will increase again when the
charging cable has cooled down sufficiently.
In the event of the charging process having
paused due to the protection device, the op-
erating display will turn off and a green warn-
ing lamp will flash. The red warning lamp will
flash. Unplug the charging cable and let it
cool down. If the fault occurs again, consult a
specialised workshop.
Limiting the charging current
The charging cable limits the charging cur-
rent based in the existing power supply. De-
pending on the power socket of the country
in question, the maximum charging current
may be 6, 8 or 10 A.
The management of the battery charge ena-
bles to select a lower or maximum charging
current.
Failure indications
If the warning lamp 4 flashes or is red with-
out the oper ating displ

ay 1 ,
2 or
3 re-
maining on, this indicat es ther
e is a failure.
The charging process will pause or cancel.
Check the failure display and consult a spe-
cialised workshop if necessary. Display

Saf
ety warnings for performing
works in the engine compartment The engine compartment of the vehicle is a
danger
ous ar

ea. You should only perform
works in the engine compartment if you have
good knowledge of the necessary operations
and the general safety measures, and if you
have adequate tools, means and operating
fluids. Works performed inadequately, could
lead to serious injuries ››› . In this case, seek
a specialised w orkshop t

o perform all the
works. SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT
dealership for this.
Before performing any work in the engine
compartment, always park the vehicle on
level and firm ground, taking all necessary
safety precautions.
Only specialised workshops qualified ac-
cording to the SEAT guidelines are authorised
to perform works on the high-voltage system
››› .
WARNING
The voltage of the high-voltage system and
of the high-v olt

age battery could be fatal! Touching damaged high-voltage cables
(or
ange col

our) and the high-voltage bat-
tery could cause an electrical shock with
deathly consequences. The high-voltage
system may be active even with the ignition
disconnected!
