Note
On the screen of the SEAT Portable System (supplied by SEAT) ⇒ page 222
the other instruments can be seen, such as an outside temperature indica-
tor.
Display messages
A variety of information can be viewed on the instrument panel display
⇒ Fig. 9 and ⇒ Fig. 10 2, depending on the vehicle equipment:
● Warning and information messages
● Odometer
● Time
● Outside temperature
● Selector lever positions ⇒ page 124
● Recommended gear (manual gearbox) ⇒ page 124
● Multifunction display (MFI) ⇒ page 22
● Service interval display ⇒ page 21

nition is switched on and while the vehicle is moving. Faults in the opera-
tion are displayed on the screen using red and yellow symbols on the in-
strument panel display ( ⇒ page 15) and, in some cases, with audible warn-
ings. The display may vary according to the type of instrument panel fitted.

WARNING
Although the outside temperature is above freezing, some roads and
bridges may be frozen.
● At an outside temperature of above +4 °C (+39 °F), even when the
“ice crystal” is not visible, there may still be ice on the road.
● Never rely totally on the outside temperature indicator!
CAUTION
Failure to heed the warning lamps when they appear may result in faults in
the vehicle.
Note
Different versions of the instrument panel are available and therefore the
versions and instructions on the display may vary.
Note
When several warnings are active at the same time, the symbols are shown
successively for a few seconds. The symbols will stay on until the fault is
rectified.
Service interval display
The inspection display appears on the instrument panel display ⇒ Fig. 9
or ⇒ Fig. 10 2.
SEAT makes a difference between services with engine oil change (Mainte-
nance Service) and services without engine oil change (Inspection Service).
The service interval display only gives information for service dates which
involve an engine oil change. The dates of the remaining services (for exam-
ple, the next Inspection Service or change of brake fluid) are listed on the
label attached to the door strut, or even in the Maintenance Programme. The set service intervals have been specified with
the service dependent on
time/distance travelled.
Inspection reminder
If the inspection period is due to expire shortly, Inspection reminder ap-
pears when starting the ignition abbreviated to and a warning in km. The
number of kilometres shown is the maximum number that may be driven
until the next service.
Service due
After the service date, an audible warning is given when the ignition is
switched on and the abbreviation displayed on the screen flashes for a
few seconds.
Note
The service message disappears after a few seconds, when the engine is
started or when OK
is pressed on the windscreen wiper lever.
Note
In vehicles in which the battery has been disconnected for a long period of
time, it is not possible to calculate the date of the next service. Therefore
the service interval display may not be correct. In this case, please check
the maximum permitted service intervals ⇒ Booklet Maintenance Pro-
gramme.

Trip memo-
ry (for a

ney).
The memory stores the values for the journey and the con-
sumption from the moment the ignition is switched on un-
til it is switched off again.
If the journey is broken for more than 2 hours, the memory
is automatically erased. If the journey is continued in less
than 2 hours after the ignition is switched off, the new da-
ta is added to the data already stored in the memory.
2Total mem-
ory (for all
journeys).
The memory stores the values of any number of journeys,
until it counts a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes of driv-
ing, or 1999.9 km or miles of driving, depending on the
type of instrument panel fitted. On reaching either of these
limits, the memory is automatically erased and starts to
count from 0 again.
