Checking and refilling levels

●When refilling liquids, avoid spilling them

on parts of the engine and the exhaust sys-

tem. Spilled liquids could cause a fire. Under

specific circumstances, the ethylene glycol

can catch fire.

CAUTION

●Only fill with distilled water. Any other type

of water may lead to considerable rusting in

the engine due to its chemical components.

This could consequently damage the engine.

If you have not used distilled water but an-

other type of water to top up the coolant, a

specialised workshop must immediately re-

place all of the fluid in the engine cooling

system.

●Only top up coolant to the top level of the

marked area ››› Fig. 245. Otherwise the ex-

cess coolant will be forced out of the cooling

system when the engine is hot, causing dam-

age.

●If a lot of liquid coolant has been lost, wait

for the engine to cool down completely before

adding coolant. Extensive coolant loss is an

indication of leaks in the engine cooling sys-

tem. Have the engine cooling system inspec-

ted immediately by a specialised workshop.

Otherwise engine damage may occur.

●When refilling service liquids, ensure that

you put the liquids into the right tank. Mak-

ing a mistake when refilling could cause seri-

ous malfunctions and damage the engine!

Brake fluid

In the course of time, the brake fluid absorbs

water from the ambient air. If there is too

much water in the brake fluid, the brake sys-

tem could be damaged. In addition, the boil-

ing point of the brake fluid is significantly

lowered. When the brake fluid contains too

much water and the brakes are subject to

considerable forces, bubbles of water vapour

can form in the system. These bubbles can

significantly reduce braking power, notably

increasing braking distance, and could even

result in the total failure of the brake system.

Ensuring that the brake system is always

functioning correctly is essential for your own

safety and the safety of other road users

Brake fluid specifications

SEAT have developed a special brake fluid

optimised for the brake systems of their vehi-

cles. To ensure the optimum working of the

brake system, SEAT recommends the use of

brake fluid in accordance with the VW 501 14

standard. If this brake fluid is not available or

another brake fluid is used for different rea-

sons, use a brake fluid that complies with the

United States standard FMVSS 116 DOT 4 or

the German standard DIN ISO 4925 CLASS 4

››› .

Brake fluids conforming to the standard

VW 501 14, fulfil the American requirements

of the FMVSS 116 DOT 4 standard and the

German DIN ISO 4925 CLASS 4 standard.

However, fluids that comply with the US

FMVSS 116 DOT 4 standard or the German

DIN ISO 4925 CLASS 4 standard do not nec-

essarily comply with the VW 501 14 stand-

ard. Always check the information on the

brake fluid container and ensure that you are

using suitable brake fluid.

A suitable brake fluid can be obtained from

technical service centres. »
