Intr oduction With the ignition switched on, it is possible
to r
e
ad the different functions of the display
by scrolling through the menus.
In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel,
the multifunction display can only be operat-
ed with the steering wheel buttons.
The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment.
A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gramme or modify additional functions, ac-
cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends visiting a SEAT Official Service.
Some menu options can only be read when
the vehicle is at a standstill.
As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it
will not be possible to read the menus
››› page 39. Some warning messages can
be confirmed and made to disappear with the windscreen wiper lever button or the multi-
fu
nction s
teering wheel button.
The information system also provides the fol-
lowing information and displays (depending
on the vehicle's equipment):

The essentials
● Vehicle
s
with Easy Connect : press the but-
ton Systems or else Vehicle systems >
Driver assistant > Speed warning.
The warning limit can be set from 30 to
240 km/h (20 to 149 mph). The adjustment
is made at 10 km/h (5 mph) intervals. Note
● Ple a
se bear in mind that, even with the
speed warning function, it is still important
to keep an eye on the vehicle speed with the
speedometer and to observe the legal speed
limits.
● The speed limit warning function in the ver-
sion for some c
ountries warns you at a speed
of 120 km/h (75 mph). This is a factory-set
speed limit. Service intervals

T di
stinguishes between services with en-
gine oil change (e.g. Oil change service) and
services without engine oil change (e.g. In-
spection).
In vehicles with Services established by time
or mileage, the service intervals are already
pre-defined.
In vehicles with LongLife Service , the inter-
vals are determined individually. Thanks to
technological progress, maintenance work
has been greatly reduced. Because of the
technology used by SEAT, with this service
you only need to change the oil when the ve- hicle so requires. To calculate this change
(max. 2 y
ears), the vehicle's conditions of
use and individual driving styles are consid-
ered. The advance warning first appears 20
days before the date established for the cor-
responding service. The kilometres (miles)
remaining until the next service are always
rounded up to the nearest 100 km (miles)
and the time is given in complete days. The
current service message cannot be viewed
until 500 km after the last service. Prior to
this, only lines are visible on the display.
Inspection reminder
When the Service date is approaching, when
the ignition is switched on a Service remind-
er is displayed.
Vehicles without text messages : a span-
ner will be displayed on the instrument
panel plus an indication in km.
The kilometres indicated are the maximum
number of kilometres that can be travelled
until the next service. After a few seconds,
the display mode changes. A clock symbol
appears and the number of days until the
next service is due.
Vehicles with text messages : Service in
--- km or --- days will be shown on the
instrument panel display. » 41
Page 44 of 308
The essentials
Service due
When the ser v
ic
e date is due, an audible
warning is given when the ignition is switch-
ed on and the spanner displayed on the
screen flashes for a few seconds .
Vehicles with text messages : Service now
will be shown on the instrument panel dis-
play.
Reading a service notification
With the ignition switched on, the engine off
and the vehicle at a standstill, the current
service notification can be read:
Press and hold the button 2 for more than 5
sec ond
s
to consult the service message.
When the service date has passed , a minus
sign is displayed in front of the number of kil-
ometres or days.
Vehicles with text messages : the following
message is displayed: Service --- km
(miles) or --- days ago .
The time can also be set via the button
and the S
ET
TINGS function button in the Easy
C onnect
sy
stem ››› page 33. Resetting service interval display
If the serv
ice was not carried out by a SEAT
dealership, the display can be reset as fol-
lows:
● Switch off the ignition, press and hold but-
ton 2 .
● Switch ignition back on.
● Release the 2 button and press it again
f or the ne
xt
20 seconds. Note
● The serv ic
e message disappears after a few
seconds, when the engine is started or when OK/RESET is pressed on the windscreen wiper
lev er
, or OK on the multifunction steering
wheel.
● In v
ehicles with the LongLife system in
which the batt
ery has been disconnected for
a long period of time, it is not possible to cal-
culate the date of the next service. Therefore
the service interval display may not be cor- rect. In this case, bear in mind the maximum
service intervals permitted in the ››› Book-
let Maintenance Programme. ●
If y
ou reset the display manually, the next
service interval will be indicated as in vehi-
cles with fixed service intervals. For this rea-
son we recommend that the service interval
display be reset by a SEAT authorised Dealer. Cruise control

Use of engine oil compliant with the VW 504 00 specification instead of VW 508 00 may have a slight negative effect on the vehicle’s exhaust gas values.
b) If the quality of the fuel available in the country does not fulfil the EN 228 (for petrol) and EN 590 (for diesel) standards.
c) Only use recommended oils, otherwise you may damage the engine.

Coolant specifications
The engine cooling system is supplied from
the factory with a specially treated mixture of
water and at least 40 % of the additive G13
(TL-VW 774 J), purple. This mixture gives the
necessary frost protection down to -25°C
(-13°F) and protects the light alloy parts of
the engine cooling system against corrosion.
It also prevents scaling and considerably rai-
ses the boiling point of the coolant.
To protect the cooling system, the percentage
of additive must always be at least 40 %,
even in warm climates where anti-freeze pro-
tection is not required. If for weather reasons further protection is
neces
sary, the proportion of additive may be
increased, but only up to 60 %; otherwise an-
tifreeze protection will diminish and this will
worsen cooling.
When the coolant is topped up, use a mixture
of distilled water and at least 40 % of the
G13 or G12 plus-plus (TL-VW 774 G) additive
(both are purple) to obtain an optimum anti-
corrosion protection ››› in Topping up cool-
ant on p ag
e 275
. The mixture of G13 with
G12 plus (TL-VW 774 F), G12 (red) or G11
(green-blue) engine coolants will significant-
ly reduce anti-corrosion protection and
should therefore be avoided ››› in Topping
