Checking and refilling levels
gas tanks are weakened by deformations,
d
am
ag
e or corrosion. As a result, the tanks
could burst and result in serious injuries or
even death. For this reason, the vehicle own-
er must have a specialised workshop check
(visual check) the gas system every 4 years
at least. The vehicle owner must have a spe-
cialised workshop replace the natural gas
tanks before they reach the end of their serv-
ice life. For further information about the
service life of gas tanks, go to a SEAT dealer
service or a specialised workshop
WARNING
Failure to act when you can smell gas in the
vehicl
e or when refuelling can cause serious
injuries.
Carry out the necessary operations.
Leave the danger zone.
If necessary, warn the emergency services.
WARNING
The vehicle is not prepared to use liquefied
natur
al gas (LNG) and this fuel must not be
added under any circumstances. Liquefied
natural gas can cause the natural gas tank to
explode, resulting in serious injury.
WARNING
Damaged, corroded or rusted tanks can result
in serious injur
y or even death.
Have the nat
ural gas deposits checked at
least every 4 years (visual check).
Natural gas tanks have a limited service
life. Have the natural gas tanks replaced
when required. You can obtain further infor-
mation about this at SEAT dealers or special-
ised workshops.
WARNING
If the vehicle underbody touches the ground
or in the ev
ent of
a rear collision, there could
be damage to the natural gas tanks.
Check whether there is a smell of gas.
If you notice a smell of gas, take the vehicle
to a specialised workshop immediately and
have the natural gas system checked.
Note
Have the natural gas system checked regular-
ly by
a specialised workshop, according to
the Maintenance Programme.
