does not contain enough anti-freeze, it may
freeze on the windscreen and rear window,
reducing forward and rear visibility.
In winter, ensure the windscreen washer
●
contains enough anti-freeze.
In cold conditions, you should not use the
●
windscreen wiper system unless you have
warmed the windscreen with the ventila-
202
tion system. The antifreeze could freeze on
the windscreen and reduce visibility.
WARNING
page 193.
Never mix an unsuitable antifreeze or other
similar additives with the windscreen wash-
er water. A greasy layer may be formed on
the windscreen which will impair visibility.
Use clean water with a window cleaner

. Please follow
If necessary, add a suitable antifreeze to
●
the water in the reservoir.

Do not mix cleaning products recommen-
●
ded by SEAT with other products. This
could lead to flocculation and may block
the windscreen washer jets.
When topping up service fluids, make ab-
●
solutely certain that you fill the fluids into
the correct reservoirs. Using the wrong flu-
ids could cause serious malfunctions and
engine damage!
