Introduction
Depending on the vehicle equipment, the air
conditioning systems can be:
●
Climatr
onic of 1 zone: heats, ventilates,
cools and dehumidifies the passenger com-
partment considering it as a single air condi-
tioning area.
●
Climatronic of 3 zones: heats, ventil
ates,
cools and dehumidifies the passenger com-
partment considering it as 3 independent air
conditioning areas (driver, front passenger
and rear seats).
There are several ways to switch on the air
conditioning:
●
Press AUTO on the climabar

The Climatornic operates most effectively
with the windows and the sunroof* closed.
Some functions and menu tabs depend on
the equipment.
Dust and pollen filter
The dust and pollen filter with its activated
charcoal cartridge serves as a barrier
against impurities in the air taken into the ve-
hicle interior.
The dust and pollen filter must be changed
regularly so that air conditioner performance
is not adversely affected.
If the filter loses efficiency prematurely due to
use in areas with very high levels of air pollu-
tion, the filter must be changed more fre-
quently than stated in the Service Schedule.
WARNING
Reduced visibility through the windows in-
creases the risk of serious accidents.
●
Al
ways ensure that all windows are free
of ice and snow, and that they are not fog-
ged, so as to maintain good visibility of ev-
erything outside.
●
Only drive when you have good visibility.
●
Always ensure that you use the air condi-
tioner and heated rear window to maintain
good visibility.
●
Never leave the air recirculation on for a
long period of time. If the cooling system is
switched off and air recirculation mode
switched on, the windows can mist over
very quickly, considerably limiting visibility.
●
Swit
ch air recirculation mode off when it
is not required.
WARNING
Stuffy or used air will increase fatigue and
r
educe driv
er concentration possibly re-
sulting in a serious accident.
●
Never leave the fresh air fan turned off or
use the air recirculation for long periods of
time; the air in the vehicle interior will not
be refreshed.
CAUTION
●
To r
eplace the pollen filter, always visit a
service centre.
●
Switch the air conditioner off if you think
it may be broken. This will avoid additional
damage. Have the air conditioner checked
by a specialised workshop.
●
Repairs to the air conditioner require spe-
cialist knowledge and special tools. SEAT
recommends visiting a SEAT Official Serv-
ice.
Note
●
When the cooling system is t
urned off, air
coming from the outside will not be dried.
To prevent fogging of the windows, SEAT
recommends leaving the cooling system
(compressor) turned on. To do this, press
the function button . The icon should
light up.
