Operation
Stop the vehicle in a safe place well away
fr
om mo
v
ing traffic. Seek specialist assis-
tance.
Gearbox: too hot. Adapt your
driving accordingly
Continue driving at moderate speeds. When
the warning lamp switches off, you can con-
tinue driving in a normal manner.
Gearbox: press the brake and
engage a gear again.
If the fault was caused by a gearbox with a
high temperature, this driver message will be
displayed when the gearbox has cooled
again.
Run-in and economical driving
Running in a new engine
The engine needs to be run in over the first
1,500 km (900 mi
l
e
s).
Up to 1000 kilometres (600 miles)
–
Do not drive at speeds of more than 2/3
the maximum speed.
–
Do not accelerate hard.
–
Avoid high engine revolutions.
–
Do not tow a trailer.
From 1000 to 1500 kilometres (600 to 900
miles)
–
Speeds can be gradually increased to the
maximum road speed or maximum permis-
sible engine speed (rpm).
During its first few hours of running, the in-
ternal friction in the engine is greater than
later on, when all the moving parts have bed-
ded in.
For the sake of the environment
If the engine is run in gently, its life will be in-
cre
ased and its oil consumption reduced.
Tyre and brake pad run-in
New tyres should be run-in carefully for the
fir
s
t
500 km (300 miles). New brake pads
should be run-in carefully for the first 200 km
(125 miles).
During the first 200 km (125 miles), you can
compensate for the reduced braking effect by
applying more pressure to the brake pedal. In
case of a sharp braking, the braking distance
will be longer with new brake pads than with
brake pads which have been run-in.
WARNING
●
At firs
t, new tyres do not give maximum
grip, and require running-in. This may cause
an accident. Drive particularly carefully in the
first
500 km (300 miles).
●
New brake pads must be “run in” and do
not have the correct friction properties during
the first 200 km (125 miles). However, the re-
duced braking capacity may be compensated
by pressing on the brake pedal a little harder.
Environmental compatibility
Environmental protection is a top priority in
the design, c
hoice of materials and manufac-
ture of your new SEAT.
Constructive measures to encourage recy-
cling
●
Joints and connections designed for easy
dismantlin
g.
●
Modular construction to facilitate disman-
tling.
●
Increased use of single-grade materials.
●
Plastic parts and elastomers are marked in
accordance with ISO 1043, ISO 11469 and
ISO 1629.
Choice of materials
●
Use of recycled materials.
●
Use of compatible plastics in the same part
if its components are not easily separated.
●
Use of recycled materials and/or materials
originating from renewable sources.
