● Lif t
and secure the luggage compartment
floor as described in ››› page 154.
● Disconnect the sub
woofer ››› Fig. 229 1 speaker cable.
●
Turn the securing wheel in an anti-clock-
w i

se direction ››› Fig. 229 2 .
● Remove the s ub

woofer speaker and the
spare wheel.
● When re-mounting the spare tyre, place the
sub
woofer on the base of the wheel rim with
care. When doing so, the tip of the “FRONT”
arrow on the subwoofer should point for-
ward.
● Reconnect the speaker cable and firmly ro-
tat
e the securing wheel clockwise so that the
subwoofer system and wheel are firmly in
place.
Winter service
Wint
er tyres –
Winter tyres must be fitted on al

l four
wheels.
– Only use winter tyres that are approved for
your

vehicle. –
Ple
ase note that the maximum permissible
speed for winter tyres may be lower than
for summer tyres.
– Also note that winter tyres are no longer ef-
fectiv

e when the tread is worn down.
– After fitting the wheels you must always
chec

k the tyre pressures. The correct tyre
pressures are listed on the sticker on the
inside of the fuel tank flap ››› page 292.
In winter road conditions winter tyres will
considerably improve vehicle handling. The
design of summer tyres (width, rubber com-
pound, tread pattern) gives less grip on ice
and snow. This applies particularly to vehi-
cles equipped with wide section tyres or with
high speed tyres (code letters H, V or Y on
the sidewall).
Only use winter tyres of the correct type ap-
proved for your vehicle. The sizes of these
tyres are specified in the vehicle's docu-
ments (e.g. EC Certificate of Conformity or
COC 1)
). The vehicle documentation varies de-
pending on the country of residence. See al-
so ››› page 293.
Winter tyres lose a great deal of their proper-
ties when the tread is worn down to a depth
of 4 mm. The performance of winter tyres is also se-
ver

ely impaired by ageing, even if the tread is
still much deeper than 4 mm.
Winter tyres are subject to the following max-
imum speed limits according to speed rating
code letter: ›››
Speed rating
code letter
››› page 293Maximum speed limit
Q160 km/h (100 mph)
S180 km/h (112 mph)
T190 km/h (118 mph)
H210 km/h (130 mph)
V240 km/h (149 mph) (please note
relevant restrictions)
W270 km/h (168 mph)
Y300 km/h (186 mph) Vehicles capable of exceeding these speeds
mu
s

t have an appropriate sticker attached so
that it is visible to the driver. Suitable stickers
are available from the SEAT Official Service
and specialised workshop. Please note the
regulations to this effect in your country.
“All-weather” tyres can also be used instead
of winter tyres. »1)

Technical specifications
Trailer mode Tr
ailer weights Trailer weight
The tr
ai

ler 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 certain 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 ››› .
Dr a

wbar loads
The maximum permitted drawbar load on the
ball joint of the towing bracket must not ex-
ceed 80 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 s

afety reasons, you should not drive at
speeds above 80 km/h (50 mph) when towing
a trailer. This also applies in countries where
higher speeds are permitted.
● Never exceed the maximum trailer weights
or the dra
wbar 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
Ty

re pressure, snow chains, wheel
bolts Tyre pressures
The s
tic

ker 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
warm tyres must not be reduced. ››› The pressure for win
t

er tyres is 0.2 bar
(2.9 psi / 20 kPa) higher than that of summer
tyres.
Snow chains
Snow chains may be fitted only to the front
wheels, and only for the following tyres:
215/60 R16Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
215/55 R17Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
215/50 R18Chains with links of maximum 15 mm
Other dimensions do not allow chains Wheel bolts
Af
t

er 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 al lo

y wheels is 140 Nm. WARNING
● Chec k

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
Ser v

ice for information about appropriate
wheel, tyre and snow chain size. 303
