Safety warnings for performing
works in the engine compartment
The engine compartment of the vehicle is a
dangerous area. You should only perform
works in the engine compartment if you have
good knowledge of the necessary operations
and the general safety measures, and if you
have adequate tools, means and operating
fluids. Works performed inadequately, could
›››
lead to serious injuries
a specialised workshop to perform all the
works. SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT
dealership for this.
Before performing any work in the engine
compartment, always park the vehicle on
level and firm ground, taking all necessary
safety precautions.
Only specialised workshops qualified ac-
cording to the SEAT guidelines are authorised
to perform works on the high-voltage system
›››
.
WARNING
The voltage of the high-voltage system and
of the high-voltage battery could be fatal!
178
Touching damaged high-voltage cables
(orange colour) and the high-voltage bat-
tery could cause an electrical shock with
deathly consequences. The high-voltage
system may be active even with the ignition
disconnected!
Never perform any type of work on the
●
high-voltage system, on the orange col-
oured high-voltage cables, on the high-
voltage components or on the high-voltage
battery. Only specialised workshops that
are qualified and approved for performing
works on high-voltage systems are author-
ised to perform works on the high-voltage
network.
Never modify, damage or remove the or-
●
ange coloured high-voltage cables, the
high-voltage components or the high-volt-
. In this case, seek
age battery, or uncouple them from the
high-voltage system.
To perform works close to high-voltage
●
components and cables, as well as on the
high-voltage battery, which require the use
of sharp tools, which may deform or re-
lease shavings, or sources of heat, such as
works involving welding, soldering, use of
hot air or thermal gluing, it is essential you
first ensure the system is not powered. The
voltage to the high-voltage battery cannot
be disconnected. Only duly qualified and
trained technicians are authorised to leave
the high-voltage system without power.
When there is a fault in the high-voltage
●
system, the engine may automatically de-

activate and the relevant display may ap-
pear on the instrument panel. In this case,
the engine will remain deactivated until du-
ly qualified and trained technicians resolve
the fault.
When performing works on the high-volt-
●
age system, especially on the orange col-
oured high-voltage cables, on the high-
voltage components or on the high-voltage
battery, ensure you bear in mind the SEAT
guidelines.
WARNING
If works are performed on the high-voltage
system and on the high-voltage compo-
nents in an inappropriate manner, this may
lead to faults in the operation, accidents
and injuries.
Only duly qualified and trained techni-
●
cians are authorised to perform works on
the high-voltage system and on any other
systems on which these may have indirect
influence.
WARNING
Any accidental movement of the vehicle
during maintenance work could cause seri-
ous injuries.
Never perform works underneath the ve-
●
hicle without having first immobilised it to
prevent it from moving. When performing
works underneath the vehicle with the
wheels on the ground, the vehicle must be
