Checking and refilling levels
12-volt battery
General information
The battery is located in the engine com-
partment and is almost maintenance-free.
It is checked as part of the Inspection Serv-
ice. Nevertheless, check the terminals are
clean and have the correct tightening tor-
que, especially in summer and winter.
All work on batteries requires specialist
knowledge. Please refer to a specialised CU-
PRA Service, SEAT Official Service or a work-
shop specialising in batteries: risk of burns or
exploding battery!
The battery must not be opened. Never try
to change the fluid level of the battery. Oth-
erwise explosive gas is released from the
battery that could cause an explosion.
Battery warning indications
Wear eye protection.
Battery acid is extremely corrosive. Wear pro-
tective gloves and eye protection. Rinse any
splashes of electrolyte with plenty of water.
Fires, sparks, open flames and smoking are pro-
hibited.
The battery should only be charged in a well-
ventilated zone. Risk of explosion!
Keep children away from acid and batteries!
Always follow the instruction manual.
Disconnecting the battery
The battery should only be disconnected in
exceptional cases. When the battery is dis-
connected, some of the vehicle's functions
are lost. These functions will require reset-
ting after the battery is reconnected.
When disconnecting the battery from the
vehicle on-board network, disconnect first
the negative cable and then the positive ca-
ble.
Deactivate the anti-theft alarm before you
disconnect the battery. Otherwise the alarm
will be triggered.
If the vehicle is not used for long periods
The vehicle has a system for monitoring the
current consumption when the engine is left
unused for long periods of time
page 301 .
Some functions, such as the interior lights,
or the remote door opening, may be tempo-
rarily disabled to prevent the battery from
running flat. These functions will come back
on as soon as the ignition is switched on and
the engine started.
Winter conditions
During the winter, the starting power may be
reduced, and if necessary, the battery
should be charged
page 301 .
WARNING
Always be aware of the danger of injury and
chemical burns as well as the risk of acci-
dent or fire when working on the battery
and the electrical system:
Wear eye protection. Protect your eyes,
skin and clothing from acid and particles
containing lead.
Battery acid is extremely corrosive. Wear
protective gloves and eye protection. Do
not tilt the batteries. This could spill acid
through the vents.
Neutralise any electrolyte splashes on the
skin, eyes or clothing with a soapy solution,
and rinse off with plenty of water. If acid is
swallowed by mistake, consult a doctor im-
mediately.
Fires, sparks, open flames and smoking
are prohibited. When handling cables and
electrical equipment, avoid causing sparks
and electrostatic charge. Never short the
battery terminals. High-energy sparks can
cause injury.
A highly explosive mixture of gases is re-
leased when the battery is under charge.
The batteries should be charged in a well-
ventilated room only.
Keep children away from acid and batter-
ies.
Before working on the electrical system,
you must switch off the engine, the ignition
and all electrical devices. The negative ca-
ble on the battery must be disconnected. »
