Advice
good performance, a better seal, improved
safety and wheel run out. Therefore, worn
rims should always be replaced and must on-
ly be repaired in a specialised workshop.
SEAT recommends visiting a technical service
››› .
Wheel rims with bolted trims
Wheel rims may be fitted with interchangea-
ble trim parts which are attached to the rim
using self-locking bolts. Worn trims should
only be replaced at a specialised workshop.
SEAT recommends visiting a technical service
››› .
WARNING
The use of worn or damaged wheel rims could
make driving more dangerous and result in
serious accidents and damage.
● Only wheel rims which have been approved
for use with your vehicle should be used.
● Inspect wheel rims regularly for damage
and replace as required. WARNING
If the bolted joints of wheel rims with bolted
ring trims are not correctly tightened or loos-
ened, this could result in serious accident.
● Never loosen the bolted joints of wheel
rims with bolted ring trims.
● Any work relating to wheel rims with bolted
rims should be carried out at specialised workshop. SEAT recommends taking your car
in for technical service.
Replacement of wheel rims and new
tyres
New tyres
● When tyres are new, drive with extreme
caution for the first 500 km, as all tyres need
to be run-in . Tyres which have not been run-
in do not
have such good grip ››› or brak-
ing capacity ››› .
● All four wheels must be fitted with radial
tyres of the same type, size (rolling circumfer-
ence) and the same tread pattern.
● The tread depth of new tyres may vary, ac-
cording to the type and make of tyre and the
tread pattern.
Replacing tyres
● Where possible, always replace both
wheels on an axle (both wheels on the front
axle or both wheels on the rear axle) ››› .
● Old tyres should only be replaced by SEAT
approved tyres for the vehicle in question,
and in accordance with the maximum permit-
ted size, diameter, load and speed capacity.
● If replacing tyres, make sure the new ones
have an emergency ride system (Conti-
Seal/Run flat). Otherwise, we recommend
carrying a tyre mobility system. ●
Never use tyres which are larger than SEAT
approved tyres. If the tyres are too big, they
may knock or rub against the chassis or other
components, resulting in damage. WARNING
New tyres do not give maximum grip and will
not have reached their maximum braking ca-
pacity to start with, and therefore need run-
ning in.
● To prevent accidents and major damage,
extreme caution should be taken for the first
600 km. WARNING
There should be adequate space between the
tyres and the vehicle in accordance with the
vehicle design. If this is not the case, the
tyres may rub against parts of the running
gear, chassis or brake lines, leading to faults
in the brake system or to tread detachment,
and the risk of burst tyres.
● The true tyre dimension should not be
greater than the dimensions of tyres manu-
factured and approved by SEAT and should
not rub against parts of the vehicle. Note
● Although tyres may be shown as being the
same size, the true dimensions of different
types of tyre may vary with respect to the
nominal size, or tread patterns may be differ-
ent. 234

Advice
● Adjust tyre pressures to the loads carried in
the vehicle.
● After checking the pressure, always replace
the valve caps, and where applicable, ob-
serve the instructions given for adjusting the
tyre control system ››› page 177. WARNING
If tyre pressures are too high or too low, the
tyre may deflate or burst suddenly while driv-
ing. This could result in a serious accident.
● If the tyre pressure is too low, they could
overheat, resulting in tread detachment or
even burst tyres.
● When driving at high speeds and/or fully
loaded, the tyre could suddenly overheat,
burst or be subject to tread detachment, with
the resultant loss of control of the vehicle.
● Tyre pressures which are too high or too
low reduce the service life of the tyre, affect-
ing the vehicle's performance.
● Tyre pressures should be checked regularly,
at least once a month and before long jour-
neys.
● Adjust the pressures of all the tyres to the
vehicle load.
● Never deflate excess pressure from hot
tyres. CAUTION
● Take care not to tilt the manometer when
placing it on the valve. Otherwise, the valve
may be damaged.
● If tyre valves are not protected by caps, or if
the caps are not screwed on correctly, they
may become damaged. Check that the caps
are identical to the standard caps and have
been correctly tightened. For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres will increase fuel con-
sumption. Note
When checking tyre pressures, please ob-
serve the instructions for the tyre control sys-
tem ››› page 177. Tread depth and wear indicators
Fig. 176
Tyre tread: tread wear indicators Tread depth
Certain driving conditions require a deeper
tread, as well as needing the tread to be ap-
proximately the same on the front and rear
tyres. This is particularly important when
driving in winter, in cold temperatures and on
wet roads
››› .
The minimum tread depth required by law in
the majority of cases is 1.6 mm (1/16 of an
inch), measured in the tread grooves next to
the tread wear indicators. Observe legal re-
quirements in each country.
The performance of winter tyres is much re-
duced when the tread has worn to 4 mm
(5/32 inch).
The tread depth of new tyres may vary, ac-
cording to the type and make of tyre and the
tread pattern.

Winter service
Winter tyres* In winter conditions winter tyres will consid-
erably improve the vehicle's handling. The
design of summer tyres (width, rubber com-
pound, tread pattern) gives less grip on ice
and snow. Winter tyres also improve the vehi-
cle braking performance, reducing the brak-
ing distance in winter weather. SEAT recom-
mend that winter tyres be fitted to the vehicle
at temperatures below +7 °C (+45 °F).
The performance of winter tyres is much re-
duced if the
tyre tread is worn below 4 mm
(1/16 inc h).
The age of the tyre is another
factor affecting performance, regardless of
the depth of the tyre tread.
Please observe the following when using
winter tyres:
● Observe legal requirements in each coun-
try. Z
W
Y ●
Winter tyres must be fitted on all four
wheels.
● Only use winter tyres in wintery weather
conditions.
● Only use winter tyres of the size authorised
for the vehicle.
● Only use radial winter tyres of the same
type, size (rolling circumference) and tread
pattern.
● Adjust speeds to within the limits indicated
(code letter on tyre) ››› .
Speed limit
A code letter indicating the speed limit is
stamped on all winter tyres ››› page 240.
In some vehicles, it is possible to set a speed
warning in the MFA (multifunction display)
menu on the instrument panel ››› page 47.
If you use V-rated tyres the speed limits and
ty r

e pressure will be determined by engine
size. Please ask your technical service centre
for further information on the maximum per-
mitted speed and the required pressures for
the tyres.
All-wheel drive*
Thanks to its all-wheel drive, your car will
have plenty of traction in winter conditions,
even with the standard tyres. Nevertheless,
SEAT still recommend that winter tyres or all-
season tyres should be fitted on all fourwheels when winter road conditions are ex-
pected, mainly because this will give a better
braking response
.
Please observe all instructions and warnings
when using
snow chains ››› page 242. WARNING
Although winter tyres help to make driving
safer in the winter, you should not take un-
necessary risks.
● Adjust your speed and driving style to visi-
bility, road, traffic and weather conditions.
● Never exceed the maximum permitted
speed or loads specified for the type of winter
tyre fitted on your vehicle. For the sake of the environment
When winter is over, change back to summer
tyres. In temperatures above +7 °C (+45 °F),
performance will be improved if summer tyres
are used. Fuel consumption, wear and noises
while driving will all be reduced. Note
● If the vehicle is fitted with a tyre control
system, this should be “reprogrammed”
whenever a tyre is changed ››› page 179.
● Please ask at a technical service centre for
information about the permitted sizes for
winter tyres. 241

Fuses Introduction Due to the constant updating of vehicles,
fuse assignments based on equipment and
the use of the same fuse for various electrical
components, it is not possible to provide an
up-to-date summary of the fuse positions for
the electrical components at the time of
printing this manual. For detailed information
about the fuse positions, please consult a
technical service.
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 igni-
tion 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 amper-
age (same colour and markings) and size.
● Never repair a fuse.
● Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple
or similar. CAUTION
● To prevent damage to the vehicle's electric
system, before replacing a fuse always turn
off the ignition, the lights and all electrical
elements and remove the key from the igni-
tion.
● If you replace a fuse with higher-rating
fuse, you could cause damage to another part
of the electrical system.
● 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. 264

Advice

P oint
a lamp at the fuse. This will make it
easier to see if the fuse is blown.
To replace a fuse
● If necessary, remove the plastic pincers
from the fuse box cover.
● For
small fuses, insert the pincers from
above ››› Fig. 210 A.
● For
larger fuses , insert the pincers from one
side of the fuse ››› Fig. 210 B.
● Remove the relevant fuse.
● Replace the blown fuse by one with an
identical amperage rating (same colour and
mark

ings) and identical size ››› .
● Replace the cover. CAUTION
If you replace a fuse with higher-rating fuse,
you could cause damage to another part of
the electrical system. Changing bulbs
Introduction Changing bulbs requires a certain amount of
manual 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 required if other vehicle
components must be removed or if the dis-
charge lamps must be replaced.
You should store spare light bulbs in the ve-
hicle for safety-relevant lights. Spare bulbs
may be obtained from the technical services.
In some countries, it is a legal requirement to
carry spare bulbs in the vehicle.
Driving with faults and blown bulbs on the
vehicle exterior lighting is against the law.
Additional bulb specifications
The specifications of some headlamp bulbs
and bulbs for the tail lamps fitted at the fac-
tory may be different to those of conventional
bulbs. Bulb information is displayed on the
bulb socket or on the bulb itself.
WARNING
If the road is not well-lit and the vehicle is
not clearly visible to other drivers, there is a
risk of accident. 266

Technical specifications
Towing a trailer Trailer weights Trailer weight
The trailer weights and drawbar loads ap-
proved are selected in intensive trials accord-
ing to precisely defined criteria. The ap-
proved trailer weights are valid for vehicles in
the EU
for maximum speeds of 80 km/h (50
mph) (in c ertain circumstances up to 100
km/h (62 mph)). The figures may be different
in other countries. All data in the official vehi-
cle documentation takes precedence over
these data at all times ››› .
Drawbar loads
The maximum
permitted drawbar load on the
b

all joint of the towing bracket must not ex-
ceed
100 kg.
In the interest of road safety, we recommend
that you always tow approaching the maxi-
mum drawbar load. The response of the trail-
er on the road will be poor, if the drawbar
load is too small.
If the maximum permissible drawbar load
cannot be met (e.g. with small, empty and
light-weight single axle trailers or tandem
axle trailers with a wheelbase of less than 1
metre), a minimum of 4% of the actual trailer
weight is legally required for the drawbar
load. WARNING
● For safety reasons, do not exceed the 80
km/h (50 mph) limit. This is also valid in
countries where higher speeds are permitted.
● Never exceed the maximum trailer weights
or the drawbar load. If the permissible axle
load or the permissible total weight is excee-
ded, the driving characteristics of the vehicle
may change, leading to accidents, injuries
and damage to the vehicle. Wheels
Tyre pressure, snow chains, wheel
bolts Tyre pressures
The sticker with the tyre pressure values can
be found on the inside of the fuel tank flap.
The tyre pressure values given there are for
cold
tyres. The slightly raised pressures of
w arm ty

res must not be reduced. ››› Snow chains
Snow chains may be fitted only to the
front
wheels .
C on

sult the section “wheels” of this manual. Wheel bolts
After the wheels have been changed, the
tightening torque
of the wheel bolts should
be checked as soon as possible with a torque
wrench ››› . The tightening torque for steel
and alloy wheels is 140 Nm. WARNING
● Check the tyre pressure at least once per
month. Checking the tyre pressure is very im-
portant. If the tyre pressure is too high or too
low, there is an increased danger of accidents
- particularly at high speeds.
● If the tightening torque of the wheel bolts
is too low, they could loosen while the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. Note
We recommend that you ask your Technical
Service for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 276
