Operating faults
•Should the air conditioner not work at any time, it may be due to
one of the following:
– Outside temperature below +5°C
– Blown fuse.
Check the fuse and replace it, if necessary. If the problem is not
due to a defective fuse, switch the air conditioning system offand
have it checked at a Technical Service Centre.
Cooling system compressor may appear to be temporarily
disconnected due to temperature excess of engine coolant.
•If cooling output drops off, switch the air conditioner off and have
the system checked by a SEAT official service point.

Observations
Climatronic is a combined heating and air conditioning system
which allows for an exact temperature regulation inside the
vehicle. At the same time, it also allows for decreased humidity,
thus contributing to increased comfort and safety.
Temperature regulation is completely automatic. The system keeps
the selected temperature. If necessary, this automatic regulation
can be adjusted manually.

By pressing the key, the system directs the air towards the
grid of the windshield and the side windows (
1, 2).
When pressing this key, the system understands that the
windshield is fogged up/frozen and, therefore, it becomes a
priority to execute said operation. It will deactivate the air
recirculation mode, should it be activated, it will increase fan
speed and deactivate ECON mode, should it be activated.

By pressing this key the air conditioning compressor is
disconnected.
The word "ECON" is displayed.
When the compressor is deactivated, the fuel consumption
decreases.
When this function is activated, the Climatronic manages the
interior temperature regulation without the air conditioner.
If the selected temperature is lower than the outside temperature,
the selected temperature will not be reached.
Depending on the exterior climate conditions (low outside
temperature and low humidity), it is not necessary to switch on the
air conditioner since you can activate the ECON mode.
In vehicles fitted with additional heating*, this function is
deactivated.R Re

By pressing this key, the air recirculation mode is activated.
With this function the entry of air from outside is closed. If a fan
speed has been selected, the air is drawn from the interior instead
of from outside, thus allowing for the air to recirculate. This way,
the entry of bad odors, smoke and dust can be momentarily
avoided.
It is not advisable to use recirculation for an extended period of
time since the air in the cabin is not replaced and would, therefore,
become very stale and dry.
The recirculation symbol is displayed if this mode is activated.

When the vehicle is stopped for a short period, for example at
trafficlights, it is only necessary to apply the brakes. It is not
necessary to move selector lever to “N N

On a gradient the handbrake should be applied firmly first and
then the parking lock engaged. This will ensure that the locking

In case of an electronic failure of the gearbox, emergency programs
are activated depending on the type of failure.
• The gear box continues to shift automatically, but strong jerking
is noticeable. Consult a Technical Service Centre.
• The gear box no longer shifts automatically.
In this case, you can shift manually. Only the 3 3r
rd
d
gear is available
in the positions "D D
", "3 3
" and "2 2
" of the selector lever.
In the positions "1 1
" and "R R
" of the selector lever, the 1 1s
st
t
gear and
reverse gear, respectively, are available as customary.
It may happen that the gear oil is overheated when the torque
converter has to work harder, especially if2 2n
nd
d
gear is missing.
In such cases, go to a Technical Service Centre as soon as possible.

runs under its own power.

Starting after running out of fuel
If the tank on vehicles with a diesel engine was empty, starting
after filling with diesel fuel can take longer than normal – up to
one minute. This is because the fuel system must first be freed of
air before starting.

Storing speed
When the speed to be maintained has been reached the press
button B(SET–) must be pressed briefly. The foot can then be
taken off the accelerator pedal.
The speed can also be increased in the normal way with the
accelerator pedal. When the pedal is then released the previously
programmed speed is resumed.
This however, is not the case when the stored speed is exceeded
by more than 10 km/h for a period of more than 5 minutes. The
speed must then be stored again.
