avoid high revs, driving at high speed and
making the engine work hard for approxi-
mately the first 15 minutes when the engine
is cold. The phase until the engine is warm
also depends on the outside temperature. If
necessary, use the engine oil temperature*
In vehicles with LongLife Service, the inter-
vals are determined individually. Thanks to
technological progress, maintenance work
has been greatly reduced. Because of the
technology used by SEAT, with this service
you only need to change the oil when the ve-
hicle so requires. To calculate this variation
(max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions of use
and individual driving styles are considered.
The advance warning first appears 20 days
before the date established for the corre-
sponding service. The kilometres (miles) re-
maining until the next service are always
rounded up to the nearest 100 km (miles) and
the time is given in complete days. The cur-
rent service message cannot be viewed until
500 km after the last service. Prior to this, on-
ly lines are visible on the display.

Additional lights and other accessories in
front of the air inlet reduce the cooling ef-
fect of the coolant. At high outside temper-
atures and high engine loads, there is a risk
of the engine overheating.
The coolant temperature gauge only works
when the ignition is switched on.
Control and warning lamp

The front spoiler also ensures proper dis-
tribution of the cooling air when the vehicle
is moving. If the spoiler is damaged this can
reduce the cooling effect, which could
cause the engine to overheat. Seek spe-
cialist assistance.

Service intervals
Fault in the engine coolant system.
The service interval indication appears on the
instrument panel display and the Infotain-
ment system.
Inspection reminder
●
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
let it cool down.
Check the engine coolant level
page 349.
If a service or an inspection has to be carried
out soon, a service reminder will be dis-
played when the ignition is switched on.

There are different versions of instrument
panels and infotainment systems, so the ver-
sions and instructions on the screens may
vary.

If the warning lamp does not switch off even
if the coolant level is correct, request assis-
tance from specialised personnel.
The figure displayed are the kilometres that
can still be travelled or the time until the next
