● After prolonged and demanding operation
of the engine, when the journey has ended,
do not stop the engine immediately. Let the
engine run at idle for about one more minute.
This will stop the engine from overheating.
For the sake of the environment
Do not warm up the engine when the vehicle
is stationary. If possible, move off immediate-
ly after starting the engine. This will help the
engine reach operating temperature more
quickly, reducing the quantity of emissions.
Note
The engine can only be started with the
●
original SEAT key.
● Loud running noises may be heard briefly
after cold-starting the engine. This is normal
and is no cause for concern.
● After the engine has been stopped and the
ignition switched off, the radiator fan may
continue running for around 10 minutes.
If the engine still does not start after a sec-
●
ond attempt, the fuel pump fuse might have
blown. Check it and replace if necessary
›››
page 80 or contact your Specialised Serv-
ice.
● You should always engage the steering lock
when you exit the vehicle. This will hinder
any attempts at theft.

more strength to steer the vehicle.
