SEAT inspection and maintenance servicePrologueGeneral observations For assistance with your vehicle, you can rely on one of the most extensive and efficient service networks.The SEAT Authorised Service Centres employ the mos
t modern workshop
tools and equipment, as well as trained specialists and a w
ide range of spare
parts. Each SEAT Authorized Service Centre
is run using the most advanced stand-
ards, the practical value of which have been demonstrat
ed in manufacture.
SEAT has worked thoroughly and made every effort
to ensure that the design
of every new vehicle employs the benefits of its
research into the levels of
safety, reliability and resistance that are demanded.Many SEAT Authorised Service Centres also offer d
ifferent services at favour-
able rates.To inform you of the jobs that are required before each
service, there is a diag-
nosis carried out via an inspection, whic
h will give information on the amount
of maintenance work that is required. In this way, you can know the cost (in ma
terial and labour) that is involved in
the work which has been indicated, because each In
spection and Mainte-
nance Service, as well as each operation to be un
dertaken has an established
time which you will be invoiced for. This also allows you to know when the work will be f
inished, or when the
vehicle will be ready for delivery. In order to mai
ntain this quality, it is impor-
tant that the vehicle is inspected regularly by an Authori
sed Service Centre.
Importance of the inspection and maintenance plan The inspection and maintenance plan is also the proof of the delivery date, and so indicates the period when your vehicle guarantee begins.Through the vehicle data indicated in this manual, it
is guaranteed that the
vehicle is fitted with the correct spare parts, and th
us ensuring that repairing
the vehicle will not present any problem, no matter ho
w much time has
passed. This inspection and maintenance plan
will also indicate which services and
jobs need to be done in any given time.The proof of service is one of the requirements t
o maintain the validity of the
guarantee.It is a good idea to keep the inspection and maint
enance plan together with
the vehicle documents, so that it is always availableIf the vehicle is sold, the inspection and maintenance
plan should be passed
on to the new owner.Service intervalsTo ensure that the appropriate services are carried out
on time, we recom-
mend that a sticker be placed on the door pillar, and the ser
vice interval indi-
cator on the instrument panel. Besides this, you can c
heck the dates of the
next service by consulting the co
rresponding boxes in this manual
Œpage 17.The intervals indicated refer to
normal service conditions.
