ESP Seat Toledo 2012 Maintenance programme

8Service information
Unless the vehicle is regularly and correctly serviced as required in the serv-
ice plan, the vehicle could breakdown while driving, leading to serious acci-
dent and injury.
● Services should be carried out by a qualified workshop in accordance
with the Maintenance Programme.
● Please observe the instructions for use.
Note
● Only use suitable fluids. Fluids should never be mixed up. This could re-
sult in serious faults and engine damage.
● SEAT is not responsible for damage to the vehicle as a result of the use
of poor quality fuel, inadequate servicing or non-availability of original
spare parts.
● Spilt brake fluid may pollute the environment. If fluids leak or are spilt,
they should be collected and disposed of accordingly.
● Regular servicing of your vehicle not only helps to ensure it remains in
good working order but also contributes to road safety. Therefore, we rec-
ommend carrying out work according to specifications in the maintenance
tables. Your specialist workshop will be delighted to assist you. Ð

Other services available Legal Inspection Service
The legal inspections must be carried out at the intervals
prescribed.Many countries have legal requirements obliging owners to have their vehi-
cle tested at specified intervals for safety for the user and for other traffic,
as well as ensuring that vehicle exhaust emissions meet the countries' reg-
ulations. These revisions must be overseen by officially certified centres.
Your SEAT Official Service can advise of the inspections required by law, and
can check your vehicle in the course of an Inspection Service. This will save
you both time and money.
The SEAT Official Service can also carry out the inspections required by law
at the client's request.
Even if you do not wish to take advantage of this service and decide to take
your vehicle to an officially certified centre for this check, we recommend
that you speak to the manager of your SEAT Official Service first.
This person will be able to inform you of any points that require attention so
that your car does not fail the test and have to be re-tested. Ð
Approved spare parts
Genuine SEAT spare parts are designed for your vehicle and approved by
SEAT, particularly as regards safety. The workmanship, precision of dimen-
sions and materials of these parts comply exactly with factory specifica-
tions. Genuine SEAT spare parts have been designed especially for your ve-
hicle. We therefore recommend that you always use genuine SEAT spare parts. SEAT will not be held responsible for the safety and reliability of parts
from other manufacturers.
In the SEAT Technical Service Centres you will generally find the most impor-
tant genuine SEAT spare parts. If a part is not in stock, it can usually be ob-
tained quickly.
SEAT Technical Service Centres provide a warranty for genuine SEAT spare
parts, valid from the date of purchase or fitting. It is therefore advisable to
retain the original invoice from the SEAT Technical Service Centre as proof of
the contractual warranty.
Please ask your SEAT Official Service for further information.
The genuine SEAT spare parts warranty can be submitted to
any SEAT Offi-
cial Service . Ð
Approved SEAT exchange parts
The approved SEAT exchange parts, conforming to the manufacturer's re-
quirements, constitute an additional service at your disposal, offering you
the possibility to replace entire assemblies, the most common being: the
lightened engine, gearboxes, cylinder heads, control units, electrical ele-
ments, etc.
These are Approved parts and as such, share the same approved spare
parts warranty as the manufacturer parts.
However, these parts are considerably cheaper as they are factory-recondi-
tioned used parts. Keep the invoice for the approved SEAT exchange parts
as proof of the start of the existing warranty.
More information about this may be obtained at the SEAT Official Service. Ð

age, there is only need to replace and paint the parts that have been really
affected.
Both operations must be carried out according to the requirements of the

work and paintwork warranties. Ð
