Attachment of the child seat with the
Top Tether* retainer straps

Fig. 32 

Position of the Top Tether rings on the

back of the rear seat.

Child seats with the Top Tether system come
with a strap for securing the seat to the vehi-
cle anchor point, located at the back of the
rear seat backrest and provide greater re-
straint.

The objective of this strap is to reduce for-
ward movements of the child seat in a crash,
to reduce the risk of injuries to the head from
hitting the inside of the vehicle.

Using the Top Tether in rear-facing mounted
seats
Currently, there are very few rear-facing child
safety seats that have Top Tether. Please
carefully read and follow the seat manufac-
turer instructions to learn the proper way to
install the Top Tether strap.

Securing the Top Tether* to the an-
chorage point

The essentials

Driver information system

Introduction

With the ignition switched on, it is possible
to read the different functions of the display
by scrolling through the menus.

In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel,
the multifunction display can only be operat-
ed with the steering wheel buttons.

The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment.

A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gramme or modify additional functions, ac-
cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends visiting a SEAT Official Service.

Some menu options can only be read when
the vehicle is at a standstill.

As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it
will not be possible to read the menus. Some
warning messages can be confirmed and
made to disappear with the windscreen wiper
lever button or the multifunction steering
wheel button.

The information system also provides the fol-
lowing information and displays (depending
on the vehicle's equipment):

limit by 3 km/h (2 mph). An audible warning
signal sounds, and the warning lamp  and
the driver message 

Speed limit excee-

 will be displayed simultaneously on the

instrument panel. The warning lamp 
switches off when reducing speed below the
stored maximum limit.

Speed warning programming is recommen-
ded if you wish to be reminded of a maxi-
mum speed, such as when travelling in a
country with different speed limits or for a
maximum speed for winter tyres.

to keep an eye on the vehicle speed with the
speedometer and to observe the legal speed
limits.

The speed limit warning function in the ver-

sion for some countries warns you at a speed

Service intervals

.

SEAT distinguishes between services with en-
gine oil change (e.g. Oil change service) and
services without engine oil change (e.g. In-
spection).

In vehicles with 

Services established by time

or mileage, the service intervals are already
pre-defined.

In vehicles with 

LongLife Service, the inter-

vals are determined individually. Thanks to
technological progress, maintenance work
has been greatly reduced. Because of the
technology used by SEAT, with this service
you only need to change the oil when the ve-
hicle so requires. To calculate this change
(max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions of
use and individual driving styles are consid-
ered. The advance warning first appears 20
days before the date established for the cor-
responding service. The kilometres (miles)
remaining until the next service are always
rounded up to the nearest 100 km (miles)
and the time is given in complete days. The
current service message cannot be viewed
until 500 km after the last service. Prior to
this, only lines are visible on the display.

Inspection reminder
When the Service date is approaching, when
the ignition is switched on a 

Service remind-

er is displayed.

Vehicles without text messages: a span-
ner  will be displayed on the instrument
panel plus an indication in

The kilometres indicated are the maximum
number of kilometres that can be travelled
until the next service. After a few seconds,
