engine coolant Seat Leon 5D 2010 Maintenance programme

Service information
6•If LongLife engine oil is not used, th e service dependent on time/distance
travelled then applies. In this case, an oil c hange service will have to be
carried out every 15,000 km (10,000 miles) or every year.Importance of the Maintenance ProgrammeThe Maintenance Programme confirms the date of deliv ery of
your vehicle and thus the beginning of its warranty cover.The vehicle data that appears in the Maintenance Programme guarantees
that the appropriate Genuine SEAT
® Parts are installed. This data helps
ensure that your car can be repaired without difficulty even after many years
of use.
The Maintenance Programme also informs you of which service should be
carried out when, and the work this entails.
Your Official SEAT Service will note down in this booklet the services carried
out.
Your Maintenance Programme should be kept in the vehicle with the on-
board documentation so that it is at han d whenever you need it.
Please remember to give the Maintenanc e Programme to the new owner if
you sell your car.
The SEAT Service Centre network is equ ipped with modern workshop tech-
nology and well-trained specialists. Many S EAT Service Centres offer different
service packages at special prices
Safety notesAll fluids and consumables , such as timing belts, tyres, coolant liquid, en gine
oil, spark plugs and vehicle batteries are cont inuously being developed.
Therefore, we recommend you take the veh icle to a qualified workshop to
have fluids or consumables changed. The Official SE AT Services receive
regular up-to-date information about mo difications. This is why SEAT recom-
mends you have fluids and other consumables replaced by an Official SEAT
Service.
Unless the vehicle is regularly and correctly s erviced as required in the
service plan, the vehicle could breakdown wh ile driving, leading to serious
accident and injury.•S e r v i c e s s h o u l d b e c a r r i e d o u t b y a q u a l i f i e d w o r k s h o p i n a c c o r d a n ce w i t h
