Stop driving!
•
Check the brake uid level.
•
If the brake uid level is too low, seek special-
ist assistance.
Changing brake uid
We recommend that you have the brake uid
changed by a Technical Service.
WARNING
If the brake uid level is low or unsuitable/old
brake uid is used, the brake system may fail
or braking power may be reduced.
•
Check the brake system and the brake uid
level regularly!
•
When the brake uid is used and brakes are
subjected to extreme braking forces, bub-
bles of vapour form in the brake system.
These bubbles can signicantly reduce brak-
ing power, notably increasing braking dis-
tance, and could result in the total failure of
the brake system.
• Be sure to always use the correct brake
uid. Only use brake uid that expressly
meets the VW 501 14 standard.
•
You can buy VW 501 14 standard brake uid
at a specialised CUPRA service or at a SEAT
Oicial Service. If none is available, use only
high-quality brake uid that meets DIN ISO
4925 CLASS 4 standards, or USA Standards
FMVSS 116 DOT 4.
•
The replacement brake uid must be new.
•
Brake uid should be stored in the closed
original container in a safe place out of reach
of children. Risk of poisoning!
NOTICE
Brake uid should not come into contact
with the vehicle paintwork, as it is abrasive.
Note
Brake uid is an environmental pollutant.
Collect any spilt service uids and allow a
professional to dispose of them.

Checking the level of the window
washer tank and relling it
Fig. 194 In the front compartment: blue
cap of the windscreen washer tank.
Check the water level in the windscreen
washer reservoir regularly and top up as re-
quired.
The window washer tank contains liquid deter-
gent for the windscreen and rear window.
There is a sieve in the ller neck of the washer
uid tank. When lling the tank, this sieve re-
tains large dirt particles so that they do not
reach the nozzles. Do not remove the sieve
except for cleaning. If the sieve is damaged or
not tted, these dirt particles could enter the
system during lling and clog the windscreen
washer nozzles.
