With petrol vehicles, it should be ensured that
lead-free petrol is available throughout the
journey. Seek information about service station
networks selling unleaded fuel.
SEAT importers and distributors will provide in-
formation about the technical preparation that
your vehicle requires and also about necessary
maintenance and repair possibilities.
NOTICE
SEAT does not accept liability for any dam-
age to the vehicle due to the use of a lower
quality fuel, an inadequate service or the
non-availability of genuine spare parts.
