Advice
Paint damage
Minor damage to the paint, such as scratches
or stone c
hips, should be touched up without
delay using paint.
Suitable touch-up brushes or sprays for the
colour of your vehicle can be purchased from
authorised SEAT dealers.
Note
We recommend you leave paint damage re-
pairs
to a SEAT Authorised Service.
Plastic parts
Exterior plastic parts will come clean using a
d
amp c
loth. If
this is not sufficient, plastic
parts can also be treated with special sol-
vent-free plastic cleaning detergents.
Do not use paint cleaners, polishes or wax on
plastic parts.
Windows and mirrors
Remove snow and ice from windows and rear
v
i
s
ion mirrors with a plastic scraper only. To
avoid damaging the surface of the glass, the
scraper should only be pushed in one direc-
tion and not moved to and fro.
The windows should also be cleaned on the
inside at regular intervals.
Use a separate cloth or chamois to dry the
windows and rear vision mirrors.
Do not use the chamois used to polish the
bodywork to dry the windows. Waxing and
polishing residues could cause smears on
the glass and hinder visibility.
CAUTION
●
Never use hot
or boiling water to remove
snow and ice from the windows. Risk of crack-
ing glass!
●
Make sure you do not damage the paint-
work on the vehicle on removing snow and
ice from the windows and rear vision mirrors.
●
Do not remove the snow or ice dirty with
thick particles, e.g. gravel, sand or road salt,
from windows and mirrors. Risk of damage to
the glass and mirror surfaces.
Headlights
Use soap and clean, hot water to clean the
fr
ont
he
adlights.
CAUTION
●
Never rub the hea
dlights to dry them and
do not use sharp objects to clean the plastic
glass material. These could damage the pro-
tective paint and cause the headlights to
crac
k.
●
Do not use aggressive cleaning products or
chemical solvents to clean the glass. This
could damage the headlights.
Caring for rubber seals
The weatherstrips on doors and windows will
remain p
liable and last longer if they are oc-
casionally treated with a suitable rubber care
product. This will prevent premature ageing
and leaks. If they are properly cared for, the
seals will be less likely to freeze up in the
winter.
Door lock cylinder
Special products must be used to defrost
loc
k
cylinder
s.
Note
●
Make s
ure, when washing the vehicle, that
the least amount of water possible enters the
lock cylinders.
●
We recommend the use of products from
the selection of SEAT Original Accessories to
care for the door lock cylinder.
