Temporary spare wheel Gener a
l information Fig. 228
Compact temporary spare wheel:
r ai

sed floor panel. The temporary spare wheel has been de-
s
igned t

o be used for short periods of time.
Have the tyres checked and replaced as soon
as possible at a SEAT Official Service or at a
specialised workshop.
Please note the following restrictions when
using the compact temporary spare wheel.
The compact temporary spare wheel is de-
signed specifically for this model. For this
reason, do not use a temporary spare wheel
from a different type of vehicle. Removing the temporary spare wheel
– Lift and hold up the floor panel to remove
the tempor

ary spare wheel.
– Turn the thumb wheel anti-clockwise
››
› Fig. 228.
– Take out the temporary spare wheel.
Chain
s
For technical reasons, snow chains must not
be used on the temporary spare wheel.
If you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the tem-
porary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. Fit the snow chains on the rear wheel
that you have removed and replace the punc-
tured front wheel with this wheel. WARNING
● Af t

er fitting the temporary spare wheel,
check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
Failure to do so may cause an accident. The
tyre pressures are listed on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
● Do not drive at over 80 km/h (50 mph)
when the tempor
ary spare wheel is fitted on
the vehicle: risk of accident!
● Never travel more than 200 km using a tem-
porar
y spare wheel.
● Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fa

st cornering: risk of accident! ●
Nev er u

se more than one temporary spare
wheel at the same time, risk of accident.
● No other type of tyre (normal summer or
wint
er tyre) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel rim.
● If you are driving using the spare wheel,
the AC
C system could automatically switch
off during the journey. Switch off the system
when starting off. Extraction of the spare wheel in vehi-

Wheels
● 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)

Advice
Using winter tyres with V-rating
Pl e
ase note that the generally applicable
240 km/h (149 mph) speed for winter tyres
with the letter V is subject to technical re-
strictions; the maximum permissible speed
for your vehicle may be significantly lower .
The maximum speed limit for these tyres de-
pends directly on the maximum axle weights
for your car and on the listed weight rating of
the tyres being used.
It is best to contact a SEAT Official Service to
check the maximum speed which is permissi-
ble for the V-rated tyres fitted on your car on
the basis of this information. WARNING
Exceeding the maximum speed permitted for
the w int

er tyres fitted on your car can cause
tyre failure, resulting in a loss of control of
the vehicle – risk of accident. For the sake of the environment
Summer tyres should be fitted again as soon
a s

possible after the winter period; they give
better handling on roads which are free of
snow and ice. Summer tyres perform with
less rolling noise, tyre wear and – most im-
portant – reduce fuel consumption. 300
