Practical tips
consumables should be changed at a speci-
alised w
orkshop
. T
echnical services are per-
manently informed of any modifications.
WARNING
The incorrect use or handling of fluids or
consumables may result in accident, seri-
ous injury, burns or int
oxication.
●
Therefore, fluids must always be stored
closed in their original container.
●
Never store fluids in empty food contain-
ers or bottles as other people may acci-
dentally drink the fluid.
●
Keep all fluids and consumables out of
reach of children.
●
Read and observe the information and
warnings given on the fluid containers.
●
Only work in the open air or in well-venti-
lated zones, when using products which
give off harmful vapours.
●
Never use fuel, turpentine, engine oil,
acetone or any other volatile liquid in the
maintenance of the vehicle. These are toxic
and highly flammable. They could lead to
fire or explosions!
CAUTION
●
Only use appropriate fluids. Do not con-
fuse fluids as this can cause serious mal
-
functions or engine damage.
●
Accessories and other components
mounted in front of the air inlet reduce the
cooling effect of the coolant. If the engine
is running under great strain in high outside
t
emperatures, it could overheat.
For the sake of the environment
Leaking fluids could pollute the environ-
ment. Coll
ect any spilt fluids in suitabl
e
containers and dispose of them in accord-
ance with legislation and with respect for
the environment.
Technical repairs and replace-
ments
When performing repairs and technical
modifications, SEAT's dir
ectiv
es must be
observ
ed!
›››
Unauthorised modifications to the electronic
components or softw
ar
e in the v
ehicle may
cause malfunctions. Due to the way the elec-
tronic components are linked together in net-
works, other indirect systems may be affec-
ted by the faults. This may significantly affect
the vehicle's performance, increase compo-
nent wear and could mean that the vehicle
registration documents are no longer valid.
Your technical service centre cannot be held
liable for any damage caused by technical
modifications or repairs performed incorrect-
ly.
The technical service centre does not accept
liability for damage resulting from technical
modifications or repairs performed incorrect-
ly; neither is the SEAT warranty valid in these
cases.
SEAT recommends you have any technical
modifications or repairs performed at a tech-
nical service centre and that you use genu-
ine SEAT spare parts

Vehicles with special accessories and
equipment
The manufacturers of additional equipment
guarantee that the equipment complies with
applicable laws and regulations with respect
to the environment, in particular Directives
2000/53/CE and 2003/11/CE. The first di-
rective governs the disposal of end-of-life ve-
hicles while the second refers to the restric-
tions on the marketing and use of certain
dangerous substances and preparations.
The vehicle owner should keep the documen-
tation for the additional equipment safely
and hand it over to the scrap yard at the end
of the vehicle's service life. This ensures that
any additional equipment mounted in end-of-
life vehicles is correctly disposed of with re-
spect for the environment.
WARNING
Repairs or modifications which are not per-
formed correctly may r
esult in damage or
