option. Set from button “set”.Once the operation has been carried out, the system memorises the time.Outside temperature display
The outside temperature is displayed when the ignition is
switched on.In addition to the outside temperature display, an ice crystal is displayed and,
if vehicle speed is over 10 km/h, a warning tone is heard at temperatures
dropping from between +4 °C and -7 °C and at temperatures rising from -5 °C
up to +6 °C.
The illumination of the crystal symbol aims to warn the driver of the risk of
ice, so that he/she proceeds with due care.
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature as
a result of heat coming from the engine.
Recommended gear display*
This display helps to save fuel.Use the gear display to save fuel. If you are not in the correct gear, a triangle
will appear next to the gear display indicating whether you should change up
or down ⇒ fig. 32.

52Multifunction display (MFI)*
The multifunction display (MFI) shows you information on the
journey and fuel consumption.The multifunction system uses two automatic memories: 1 - Actual
memory and 2 - Total memory . The selected memory will be shown
in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Selecting a memory
– With the ignition switched on, briefly press button ⇒fig. 33
on the windscreen wiper lever to move from one memory to
another.
Resetting a memory
– Select the memory that you would like to reset.
– Press and hold button on the windscreen wiper lever for at least 2 seconds.
The trip memory 1 collects the travel and consumption rates from the
moment the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. If the journey is
continued within two hours of switching off the ignition, the new values will
be added to the existing trip recorder memory. The memory will automatically
be deleted if the journey is interrupted for more than two hours.
The total memory 2 collects the trip data for any number of individual jour-
neys (even if the ignition is switched off for longer than two hours) up to a
total of 19 hours and 59 minutes travel time or 1999 km distance travelled.
The memory will automatically be deleted if one of the named values is
reached.Information in th e multifunction display (MFI)* You can switch between the following displays in the multifunction display
(MFI) by operating rocker switch ⇒fig. 34 on the windscreen wiper lever.

Km/h - Driving speed
Driving speed is digitally shown in the display.
min - Journey duration
The display shows the amount of time which has elapsed since the ignition
was switched on.
The maximum display value in both memories is 19 hours and 59 minutes.
The memory will automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.
Økm/h - Average speed
After turning on the ignition, the average speed will be shown after travelling
a distance of approximately 100 metres. Until then dashes will appear in the

motion.
km - Distance travelled
The display shows the distance travelled since the ignition was switched on.
The maximum display value in both memories is 1999 km. The memory will
automatically be deleted once this value has been reached.z Km - Fuel range
The fuel range is calculated using the figures for tank content and current fuel
consumption. It shows how far the vehicle can travel using the same condi-
tions as a reference. Ø l/100 km - Average fuel consumption
After turning on the ignition, average fuel consumption will be shown after
travelling approximately 100 metres. Until then dashes will appear in the
display. The display will be updated every 5 seconds while the vehicle is in
motion. The amount of fuel used will not be shown.
l/100 km or l/h - Current fuel consumption
The display will show the current fuel consumption in litre/km whilst the
vehicle is in motion or in litre/hour when the vehicle is in a stationary position
with the engine running.
Using this display you can see how your driving style affects fuel consump-
tion
⇒page 158.
Outside temperature display
The measurement range extends from -45 °C to +58 °C. At temperatures
below +4 °C, an ice crystal symbol is displayed and a warning sounds if the
vehicle is moving at more than 10 km/h (ice danger warning). This symbol
will flash for about 10 seconds and remains lit until the outside temperature
rises above +4 °C or above 6 °C when on the move if it was already lit.

WARNING
There could be black ice on the road surface even if the “snowflake symbol”
is not shown. For this reason you should not rely exclusively on this display
- Risk of accident!
Note
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at very low speeds, the tempera-
ture displayed may be slightly higher than the actual outside temperature as
a result of the heat radiated from the engine.Display field for selector lever position*The position of the automatic selector lever is shown on the display
⇒ page 137.
OdometerThe upper counter in the display registers the total mileage covered by the
vehicle.
The lower counter registers the short journeys. The last digit indicates 100-
metre sections. The trip recorder counter may be reset by pressing the reset
button ⇒page 49, fig. 30 .Service interval displayThe service indication is shown on the instrument panel display ⇒fig. 36 .
SEAT distinguishes between services with engine oil change (e.g. Mainte-
nance Service) and services without engine oil change (e.g. Inspection
Service). The service interval display only indicates the dates of services that
include engine oil change. The dates of all other services, such as Inspection
Ser vice or brake fluid change, appear in the sticker on the door pillar or in the
Service Schedule.

Technical Specifications
Vehicles with
service intervals dependent on time/distance travelled already
have certain service intervals set.
The intervals are calculated separately in vehicles with LongLife service Te ch-
nical progress has made it possible to considerably reduce servicing require-
ments. With the LongLife System, SEAT ensures that your vehicle only has an
interval service when it is necessary. To calculate this (max. two years), the
conditions under which the vehicle is used and the individual driving style
are also taken into account. The service pre-warning will appear at 20 days or
less prior to the corresponding service. The distance travelled is rounded off
to the nearest 100 km and the time to full days. The current service message
can only be consulted 500 km or more after the last service. Until that time,
only dashes are displayed.
Service warning
A service warning will appear when the ignition is switched on if a service is
due soon.
The instrument panel display will show the “spanner symbol”
 and the
“km” indication, along with a clock symbol with the days remaining until the
date of the next service. The figure indicated is the maximum number of kilo-
metres remaining before the date of the next service. The indication changes
after a few seconds. A “clock symbol” appears and the number of days until
the service appointment should be carried out.
Service
If a service is due, a gong signal will sound and the flashing “spanner”

symbol will be shown along with the fixed text SERVICE.
If no service is carried out following the indication on the instrument panel,
the excess distance travelled and the excess time following the SERVICE
warning will be displayed.
Reading the service message
The current service message can be consulted with the ignition on, the
engine switched off and the vehicle at a standstill:
•Press the button on the instrument panel as often as necessary until
the spanner symbol
 is displayed.
An overdue service is indicated by a minus sign in front of the mileage or day
information.
Resetting service interval display
If the service was not performed by a SEAT dealer, the display must be reset
as follows:
•Switch the ignition off.•Press and hold the button.•Switch ignition back on.•Release the button and press the button within 20 seconds.
Do not reset the display between service intervals, as the display will other-
wise be incorrect.
If the display is reset manually, the next service interval will be indicated after
15,000 km or one year and will not be calculated individually.Note
In LongLife Service vehicles, if the battery is disconnected for a long period,
the days remaining until the next service cannot be calculated. Therefore, the
service message indications may be incorrect. In this case, bear in mind the
maximum service intervals permitted in the ⇒Booklet “Service Schedule”.
