Outside temperature indicator!
When the outside temperature is below +4 °C
(+39 °F), the symbol "ice crystal" (warning of
risk of freezing) is also displayed next to the
temperature. At first this symbol flashes and
then it remains lit until the outside tempera-
ture rises above +6 °C (+43 °F)
When the vehicle is stationary or travelling at
very low speeds, the temperature displayed
may be slightly higher than the actual out-
side temperature as a result of heat coming
from the engine.
The temperatures measured range from
-40 °C to +50 °C (-40 °F to +122 °F).

The range of engaged gears of the selector
lever is shown on the side of the lever, and
on the instrument panel display. In positions
D and M, and with the Tiptronic, the corre-
sponding gear is also indicated on the dis-
play.

dent for the driver and for other road users. If
necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to ad-
vise other drivers.
Park the vehicle away from traffic and en-
●
sure that no highly flammable materials are
under the vehicle that could come into con-
tact with the exhaust system (e.g. dry grass,
fuel).

freezing, some roads and bridges may be icy.

SEAT makes a difference between services
with engine oil change (Interval Service) and
services without engine oil change (Inspec-
tion Service). The service interval display only
gives information for service dates which in-
volve an engine oil change. The dates of the
remaining services (e.g. the next Inspection
Service or change of brake fluid) are listed on
the label attached to the door strut, or in the
Maintenance Programme.
