10Service informationImportance of the Maintenance Programme
The Maintenance Programme confirms the date of delivery
of your vehicle and thus the beginning of its warranty cover.
The vehicle data that appears in the Maintenance Programme guaranteesthat the appropriate Genuine SEAT® Parts are installed. This data helps en-sure that your car can be repaired without difficulty even after many years ofuse.
Your specialised workshop will write the details of services that have beencarried out in this notebook.
Your Maintenance Programme should be kept in the vehicle with the on-board documentation so that it is at hand whenever you need it.
Please remember to give the Maintenance Programme to the new owner ifyou sell your car.
The SEAT Service Centre network is equipped with modern workshop tech-nology and well-trained specialists. Many SEAT Service Centres offer differ-ent service packages at special prices

Safety notes
All fluids and consumables, such as timing belts, tyres, coolant liquid, en-gine oil, spark plugs and vehicle batteries are continuously being devel-oped. Therefore, we recommend you take the vehicle to a specialised work-shop to have fluids or consumables changed. The SEAT Official Services re-ceive regular up-to-date information about modifications. This is why SEATrecommends you have fluids and other consumables replaced by a SEAT Of-ficial Service.
Unless the vehicle is regularly and correctly serviced as required in the serv-ice plan, the vehicle could breakdown while driving, leading to serious acci-dent and injury.
●
Service work is carried out according to the Maintenance Programme ata specialised workshop.
●
Please observe the instructions for use.
Note
●Only use suitable fluids. Fluids should never be mixed up. This could re-sult in serious faults and engine damage.●
SEAT is not responsible for damage to the vehicle as a result of the useof poor quality fuel, inadequate servicing or non-availability of originalspare parts.
●
Spilt brake fluid may pollute the environment. If fluids leak or are spilt,they should be collected and disposed of accordingly.
●
Regular servicing of your vehicle not only helps to ensure it remains ingood working order but also contributes to road safety. Therefore, we rec-ommend carrying out work according to specifications in the Maintenancetables. Your specialised workshop will be delighted to assist you.

General information
To ensure that you have each service carried out on time and that none areforgotten, there is a reminder sticker on the driver side door pillar and a re-minder will also be shown via the service interval display on the instrumentpanel.
The service intervals quoted are for vehicles used under normal operatingconditions.
However, if the vehicle is used in adverse conditions, it may require workbefore the next established service interval or even between service inter-vals.
Adverse conditions include:
●
the use of fuel with a high sulphur content
●
frequent short journeys
●
leaving the engine idling for long periods of time (as occurs with taxis)
●
driving on dusty roads or in dusty areas
●
frequently using the vehicle for towing
●
mainly driving in the city, in heavy traffic where it is necessary to contin-uously brake and start, and
●
using the vehicle mainly in the winter
This particularly affects:●
the air filter
●
the timing belt
●
the engine oil and
●
the diesel particulate filter
In some countries diesel fuel has a high sulphur content; in these cases thefuel filter and the oil should be changed every 7500 km (5000 miles)⇒ page 12. Your SEAT Official Service will be able to tell you which coun-tries have diesel with a high sulphur content.
The service advisor at your specialised workshop will tell you if, due to pre-vailing conditions, your vehicle will require more frequent work.
Your SEAT Official Service always has the latest available information andwill be able to tell you if your vehicle requires any other additional inspec-tions established by law.
The cost of the SEAT service may vary, depending on the vehicle type,equipment fitted, additional work and statutory inspections. Your SEAT Offi-cial Service will tell you how much the SEAT service will cost (labour andparts).
