g w
ith a trailer
Technical requirements If your vehicle has a factory-fitted towing
brac
k

et or is equipped with a selection of
SEAT Original Accessories, it meets all the rel-
evant technical and legal requirements.
In vehicles with a towing bracket it is possi-
ble to remove the ball joint, situated (togeth-
er with the special assembly instructions) in
the housing for the spare wheel in the vehi-
cle luggage compartment ›››
page 76, Vehicle
tool kit*.
Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pole power
socket for the electrical connection between
the trailer and the vehicle. If the trailer you
are going to use has a 7-pin connector, the
corresponding adaptor, acquired from the
SEAT Original Accessories Catalogue, can be
used.
If a towing bracket is to be retro-fitted to the
car, it must be done according to the instruc-
tions of the towing bracket manufacturer. Note
Any queries that may arise can be directed to
an authorised S EA

T dealer.186

Care and maintenance
●
The modification of the s
uspension of the
vehicle wheels, including the use of non-per-
mitted combinations of tyres and rims can al-
ter the operation of the airbag system and in-
crease the risk of serious or fatal injuries in
an accident.
● During all jobs on the airbag system, in ad-
dition to the remo
val and fitting of parts of
the system in the course of other repair jobs,
parts of the airbag system can be damaged.
Therefore in the event of an accident, this
may cause the airbags to activate incorrectly
or not activate at all. Radio and aerial reception
In vehicles factory-fitted with an audio or
n
av
ig

ation system, the aerial may be instal-
led in different places:
● inside the rear window next to the heating
elements,
● on the roof

of the vehicle.
Care and cleaning Introduction Regular and suitable care helps to
m
aint ain
the u
seful life of your vehicle. This may also
be one of the requirements for upholding any warranty claims in the event of corrosion or
paint def

ects.
We recommend you use cleaning products
from the SEAT Original Accessories pro-
gramme available in SEAT dealers. Please fol-
low the instructions for use on the packag-
ing. WARNING
● Cle

aning products and other materials used
for car care can damage the health if mis-
used.
● Always keep car care materials in a safe
plac
e out of the reach of children. Risk of poi-
soning!
● When washing the car during the winter
season: Moi
sture and ice on the brakes may
affect braking efficiency. Risk of accident!
● The ignition must always be switched off
when the car is
washed. Risk of accident!
● Do not clean the underside of the car or in-
side the wheel ar
ches without protecting your
hands and arms. You may cut yourself on
sharp metal parts!
● Perfumes and air fresheners inside the ve-
hicle m
ay be harmful to health at high tem-
peratures in the interior. CAUTION
● Check the c

olour-fastness of your clothing
to avoid damaging or visibly staining the fab-
ric (leather), upholstery and fabric trim. ●
Cle

aning products containing solvents may

● Sw itc

h off the auxiliary heater (heater and
independent heater) before filling the tank.
● The fuel tank is full as soon as the automat-
ic fil
ler nozzle cuts out. Do not continue fill-
ing, as this will fill the expansion chamber.
● Never completely empty the tank! An irreg-
ular f
uel supply can cause ignition faults,
which can result in damage to a substantial
amount of engine parts and the exhaust sys-
tem.
● If any fuel is spilt onto the paintwork of the
vehicl
e, it should be removed immediately.
Risk of damage to paintwork! Note
There is no emergency mechanism for the
manua l

release of the fuel tank flap. If neces-
sary, request assistance from specialised per-
sonnel. Note
The fuel tank capacity is around 55 litres, of
which 7 litr e

s are the reserve. Types of petrol
The correct grade of petrol is listed inside the
fuel
t

ank flap.
The vehicle is equipped with a catalytic con-
verter and must only be run on unleaded pet-
rol. The petrol must comply with European
Standard EN 228 or German standard DIN
51626-1 and must be unleaded. You can re-
fuel with a maximum ethanol proportion of
10 % (E10). The types of petrol are differenti-
ated by their octane rating (RON).
The following titles appear on the corre-
sponding adhesive on the fuel tank flap:
Super unleaded 95 octane or normal 91 oc-
tane unleaded petrol
We recommend you use super 95 octane pet-
rol. If this is not available: normal 91 octane
petrol, with a slight decrease in power.
Super unleaded petrol with a minimum of 95
octanes
You should use super petrol with a minimum
of 95 octanes.
If super is not available, in an emergency you
may refuel with normal 91 octane petrol. In
this case only use moderate engine speeds
and a light throttle. Refuel with super as soon
as possible.

Advice
Water in the fuel filter 1)
If
y
our vehicle has a diesel engine and is
equipped with a fuel filter with a water sepa-
rator, the instrument panel may display the
following warning:  Water in the
fuel filter. If this is the case, take the
vehicle to a specialised workshop so that
they can drain the fuel filter. CAUTION
● The v ehic

le is not designed for the use of
FAME fuel (biodiesel). The fuel system would
be damaged if you used biodiesel.
● Do not mix fuel additives, the so-called
“thinners”, petro
l or similar additives with
diesel fuel.
● If poor-quality diesel fuel is used, it may be
neces
sary to drain the fuel filter more fre-
quently than is specified in the Maintenance
Programme. We recommend having this done
by a specialised workshop. If water is allowed
to collect in the filter, this can cause engine
performance problems. Engine compartment
