Battery
Incorrect handling of the high-voltage
batt
ery can cause serious injuries or
death. Maintenance work on the high-
voltage battery must only be performed
by specialized personnel with the corre-
sponding qualifications and training. Nev-
er modify the high-voltage battery. When
the high-voltage battery is open, ensure it
does not come into contact with water or
other liquids. Liquids may cause short cir-
cuits, electrical shocks and burns.
Conservation of the high-

Reliability and capacity of the high-volt-
age battery
Lithium ion batteries are subject to ageing
and wear and tear throughout their useful life
due to their physical and chemical charac-
teristics. Correct handling of the high-voltage
battery makes an essential contribution to
keeping it in a reliable state in the long term
and to achieving high battery capacity and
range. Therefore, it is extremely important to
respect the following conservation instruc-
tions for the high voltage battery. These
7
maintenance instructions are essential for
maint
aining the vehicle's value over time.
Please also observe the applicable SEAT
warranty conditions for the high-voltage bat-
tery.
Conservation instructions
SEAT recommends the following conserva-
tion instructions:
●
Only charge the high-voltage battery when
a low charge level is displayed on the instru-
ment cluster, or when the electric range is low
›››
page 81.
●
Do not directly charge the high-voltage
battery after only a short drive in full electric
mode.
●
As much as possible avoid fully discharging
the high-voltage battery, such as by leaving
the vehicle parked for a prolonged time with
a low load level. The charge level must not
drop below 20% for long periods of time
›››
.
●
When the high-voltage battery has been
fully char
ged, start driving immediately if
possible.
Vehicle parking times
●
If there is a frost, do not park the vehicle for
several hours with a charge level of lower
than 40%
›››
.
●
If you plan to leave your vehicle stationary
f
or prolonged periods of time, park with a
charge level of at least 30%. This situation
occurs, for example, when you leave your ve-
hicle at the airport before a trip.
●
Do not expose the vehicle to outside tem-
peratures below -30°C or above 60°C for
over 24 hours.
CAUTION
The high-voltage battery must not be used
as a st
ationary power supply. This can
cause irreversible damage to the high-volt-
age battery.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is parked for a long time with
the high-v
oltage battery discharged, it
may no longer be possible to charge the
battery or start the vehicle. Irreversible
damage could be caused to the high volt-
age battery in the long term.
●
Charge the high-voltage battery at regu-
lar intervals.
