Cooling system

WARNING

Engine coolant is toxic!

●Only store coolant in its original container,

tightly closed and in a safe place.

●Never store motor coolant in empty food

cans, bottles or other empty containers, as it

could be ingested by another person.

●Always keep motor coolant out of reach of

children.

●Ensure that the coolant ﬂuid additive per-

centage is correct, taking into account the

lowest ambient temperature expected in the

location where the vehicle is to be used.

●When the outside temperature is very low,

the coolant could freeze and the vehicle

could be immobilised. In this case, the heat-

ing would not work either and inadequately

dressed passengers could die of cold.

For the sake of the environment

Coolants and additives can contaminate the

environment. If any operating ﬂuid leaks out,

collect it and dispose of it properly and in an

environmentally friendly manner.

Coolant speciﬁcations

The factory ﬁtted motor cooling system is ﬁlled

with a mixture of specially treated water and at

least 40% coolant additive G12evo (TL-VW 774

L).

Get information from a specialist workshop

about which coolant is suitable for your vehicle.

SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT dealership

for this.

To protect the engine cooling system, the ad-

ditive percentage should always be at least

40%. If more antifreeze protection is required

for climatic reasons, the additive proportion

can be increased. However, it should only be

increased up to a maximum of 55 %, otherwise

the antifreeze protection would be reduced and

the cooling eect would be impaired.

The G12evo (TL-VW 774 L) can be recognised

by its lilac colouring. This mixture of water

and additive not only provides antifreeze pro-

tection down to -25°C (-13°F), but also pro-

tects the light alloy parts of the cooling system

against corrosion, prevents limescale build-up

and considerably raises the boiling point of the

coolant.

When topping up the coolant, a mixture of dis-

tilled water and at least 40% of the appropri-

ate coolant additive should be used for opti-

mum corrosion protection ›››page330.

WARNING

If the vehicle’s cooling system does not have

sucient antifreeze protection, the engine

could fail and this could result in serious in-

jury.

●Ensure that the coolant ﬂuid additive per-

centage is correct, taking into account the

lowest ambient temperature expected in the

location where the vehicle is to be used.

●When the outside temperature is very low,

the coolant could freeze and the vehicle

could be immobilised. In this case, the heat-

ing would not work either and inadequately

dressed passengers could die of cold.

NOTICE

Never mix the original additives for the

G12evo coolant (TL-VW 774 L) with motor

coolant ﬂuid not authorised by SEAT.

●If the ﬂuid in the expansion tank does not

have a pink colour (resulting from mixing the

lilac additive with distilled water), but is, for

example, brown, the suitable coolant may

have been mixed with another unsuitable

one. The coolant must be changed as soon

as possible if this is the case! Otherwise se-

rious malfunctions or damage to the engine

and the cooling system could occur!
