Changing bulbs
Introduction
193.
Changing bulbs requires a certain amount of
manual skill. If you are unsure, SEAT recom-
mends that you consult a technical service or
request assistance from a specialist. In gen-
84.
eral a specialist is needed if, in addition to the
bulbs, other vehicle components require re-
moval.
You should store spare light bulbs in the vehi-
cle for safety-relevant lights. Spare bulbs
may be obtained from the technical services.
In some countries, it is a legal requirement to
carry spare bulbs in the vehicle.
Driving with faults and blown bulbs on the ve-
hicle exterior lighting is against the law.
