ofitted at a specialised workshop. For ex- ample, it may very well be necessary to ad-
just the cooling system or mount thermal pr

tection plates. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT dealership for this.
If a towing bracket is retrofitted, the distance
specifications should always be kept in mind.

Practical tips
Incorrect handling of the high-voltage
batt ery can cause serious injuries or
death. Maint
enance work on the high-
voltage battery must only be performed
by specialized personnel with the corre-
sponding qualifications and training. Nev-
er modify the high-voltage battery. When
the high-voltage battery is open, ensure it
does not come into contact with water or
other liquids. Liquids may cause short cir-
cuits, electrical shocks and burns.

Reliability and capacity of the high-volt-
age battery
Lithium ion batteries are subject to ageing
and wear and tear throughout their useful life
due to their physical and chemical charac-
teristics. Correct handling of the high-voltage
battery makes an essential contribution to
keeping it in a reliable state in the long term
and to achieving high battery capacity and
range. Therefore, it is extremely important to
respect the following conservation instruc-
tions for the high voltage battery. These 7 maintenance instructions are essential for
maint
aining the v
ehicle's value over time.
Please also observe the applicable SEAT
warranty conditions for the high-voltage bat-
tery.
Conservation instructions
SEAT recommends the following conserva-
tion instructions:

Practical tips
Super unleaded petrol 95 octane petrol or
normal 91 oct ane petr
ol at least
We recommend refuelling with super 95 oc-
tane petrol (91 AKI). If not available, normal 91
octane petrol (87 AKI) (with a slight power
loss) may be used.
Super unleaded petrol, 95 octanes at
least
You should use super 95 octane petrol (91
AKI) at least.
If super is not available, if necessary, use nor-
mal 91 octane petrol (87 AKI). In this case only
use moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble.
Unleaded super plus 98 octane petrol or
super 95 octane petrol at least
We recommend refuelling with super plus 98
octane petrol (93 AKI). If not available: super
95 octane petrol (91 AKI) (with a slight power
loss).
If super is not available, if necessary, use nor-
mal 91 octane petrol (87 AKI). In this case only
use moderate engine speeds and a light
throttle. Refuel with super as soon as possi-
ble. CAUTION
