How to Refill AdBlue in a Seat Ateca

Model: Seat Ateca MK 1 - Years 2016-2025
Part: Checks and maintenance

Let’s see how to refill AdBlue in a Seat Ateca: the procedure must be carried out with the vehicle stationary and turned off. Use only AdBlue compliant with ISO 22241-1 regulations, as using non-compliant liquids can severely damage the system; do not spill the liquid on the vehicle body as it is corrosive. Clean immediately with plenty of water in case of contact. Monitor the range via the instrument panel; when it drops below 2,400 miles, the display will indicate the need for refilling: Do not ignore this warning as if the tank runs completely dry, the car will not start. Open the tank flap, and open the smaller blue filler neck, placing the cap in the designated holder on the hinge of the flap. If using an AdBlue dispenser, insert the nozzle and proceed with the refill; if using a refill bottle, use a funnel to avoid spills. Re-screw the cap and close the flap.
