etter indicating the speed limit is
stamped on all winter tyres ››› page 295.
In some vehicles, it is possible to set a speed
warning in the MFD (multifunction
display) menu on the instrument panel
›››
page 27.
If you use V-rated tyres the speed limits and
tyre pressure will be determined by engine
size. Please ask your technical service centre
for further information on the maximum per-
mitted speed and the required pressures for
the tyres.
All-wheel drive*
Thanks to its all-wheel drive, your car will
have plenty of traction in winter conditions,
even with the standard tyres. Nevertheless,
SEAT still recommend that winter tyres or all-
season tyres should be fitted on all four
wheels when winter road conditions are ex-
pected, mainly because this will give a better
braking response.
Please observe all instructions and warnings
when using snow chains

page 50.
WARNING
Although winter tyres help to make driving
safer in the w
inter, you should not take un-
necessary risks.
●
Adjust your speed and driving style to visi-
bility, road, traffic and weather conditions.
●
Never exceed the maximum permitted
speed or loads specified for the type of winter
tyre fitted on your vehicle.
For the sake of the environment
When winter is over, change back to summer
tyre
s when you have the time. In tempera-
tures above +7°C (+45°F), performance will
be improved if summer tyres are used. Fuel
consumption, wear and noises while driving
will all be reduced.
Note
●
If the v
ehicle is fitted with a tyre control
system, this should be “reprogrammed”
whenever a tyre is changed ››› page 236.
●
Please ask at a technical service centre for
information about the permitted sizes for
winter tyres.
