Engine oil
Gener al not
es The engine comes with a special, multi-grade
oil that can be used all year r
ound.
Because the use of high-qualit

y oil is essen-
tial for the correct operation of the engine
and its long useful life, when topping up or
changing oil, use only those oils that comply
with VW standards. 1)
In hybrid vehicles the battery can be found in
the l eft hand side of the luggage compartment

Checking and refilling levels
We recommend that the oil change be done
by a t echnical service or specialised w
ork-
shop.
If the engine oil level is too low
You can get information about the correct en-
gine oil for your vehicle at your workshop.
If the recommended engine oil is not availa-
ble, in the event of an emergency you can
change the oil once with a maximum of 0.5 L
of the next oil until the next oil change:
Petrol engines: standard VW 504 00,
VW 502 00, VW 508 00, ACEA C3 or
API SN.
Diesel engines: standard VW 507 00,
VW 505 01, ACEA C3 or API CK-4.
Have the oil changed by a specialised work-
shop.
SEAT recommends using original SEAT oil to
guarantee high SEAT engine performance.
Engine oil additives
No type of additive should be mixed with the
engine oil. The deterioration caused by these
additives is not covered by the warranty. CAUTION
Take the following into account if you have
r efill

ed with an engine oil different to those –
– specified in the aforementioned standards,
