al cleaning products or window cloths
are available at any technical service. To re-
move wax deposits, SEAT recommends the
following products:
●
For the hottest time of the year: the
G 052 184 A1 window cleaner for summer
use. Proportion 1:100 (1 part detergent,
100 parts water) in the windscreen washer
reservoir.
●
All year round: window cleaning product
G 052 164 A2; proportion 1:2 in windscreen
washer container (1 part concentrate, 2 parts
water) in winter, up to -18 ℃ (-0.4 ºF), or 1:4,
during the rest of the year.
●
Window cloths G 052 522 A1 for all win-
dows and exterior mirrors.
Removing snow
Use a small brush to remove snow from the
windows and exterior mirrors.
Removing ice
If possible, use a de-icing spray to remove
ice. If you use an ice scraper, push it in one
direction only without swinging it. If you pull
the scraper backwards, the dirt may scratch
the window.
WARNING
Dirty or misted windows reduce visibility in
all
directions and increase the risk of acci-
dent and serious injury.
●
Do not drive unless you have good visibility
through all windows!
●
Remove ice and snow from the windows
and demist inside and out.
CAUTION
●
Never mix
our cleaning products with other
products not recommended by SEAT in the
windscreen washer reservoir. This could lead
to flocculation and may block the windscreen
washer jets.
●
Do not use hot or warm water to remove ice
or snow from the windows and exterior mir-
rors. The glass could crack!
●
The heating element for the rear window is
located on the inner side of the window. Do
not stick adhesive labels over the heating el-
ements and never clean the inside of the rear
window with corrosive or acid products or
other similar chemical cleaning products.
●
Aerials on the inside of windows may be
damaged if knocked or if cleaned with corro-
sive or acid cleaning products. Do not stick
adhesive labels over the heating elements
and never clean the inside of the rear window
with corrosive or acid products or other simi-
lar chemical cleaning products.
Caring for and polishing the vehicle

Waxing
Regu
lar waxing protects the paintwork. It is
time to apply a good coat of wax when water
no longer forms droplets and rolls off the
clean paintwork.
Even if a wax solution is used regularly in the
automatic car wash, SEAT recommends pro-
tecting the paint with a hard wax coating at
least twice a year.
Polishing
Polishing is only necessary if the paint has
lost its shine, and the gloss cannot be
brought back by applying wax.
If the polish does not contain wax, a wax
product should be applied after polishing.
CAUTION
●
To prev
ent damage, car polish or hard wax
should not be used on components painted in
matt paint, plastic components and the glass
headlamp and tail light covers.
●
Do not polish the paintwork if it is dirty, ap-
ply polish in dusty or sandy zones.
