Indications for vehicles with LongLife service
Technical progress has made it possible to considerably reduce servicing
requirements. With the LongLife System, SEAT ensures that your vehicle only
has an interval service when it is necessary. The length of the service intervals
(max. two years) is determined by factors such as conditions under which the
vehicle is used and personal driving style.
The service pre-warning will first appear 20 days before the date on which the
service is due. 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 after the last service. Until that time, only dashes are displayed.
Note
•If you reset the display manually, the next service interval will be indi-
cated after 15,000 km or one year and will not be calculated individually.•Do not reset the display between service intervals as the display will
otherwise be incorrect.•In LongLife Service vehicles, if the battery is disconnected for a long
period, the days remaining until the next service cannot be calculated. There-
fore, the service message displays on the instrument panel may be incorrect.
Take into account the maximum authorised service intervals.
Multifunction display (MFI)*
The multifunction display (MFI) shows you information on the
journey and fuel consumption.
