The remote control key can

●

Lock and unlock the vehicle

●

Unlock or open the rear lid.

The remote control transmitter and the bat-
teries are integrated in the key. The receiver is
inside the vehicle. The remote control key has
a maximum range of 30 metres. The range is
reduced as the batteries start to lose power.

The key includes a foldaway part that can be
used to manually lock or unlock the vehicle
and to start the engine.

If a lost key is replaced or the receiver is re-
paired or changed, the remote control key
must be adapted by an authorised SEAT
dealer. Only then can the remote control key
be used again.

Note

●

The remote control is automatically de-

activated when the ignition is switched on.

●

The remote control function may be tem-

porarily limited by interference from other
transmitters near the vehicle that operate
on the same frequency (e.g. mobile phone,
television transmitter).

●

If the central locking system or the anti-

theft alarm only responds to the remote
control at a distance of less than 3 metres,
then the battery must be replaced

Should any of the doors or the rear lid remain
open when the vehicle is locked, the turn sig-
nals will only flash when they are closed.

WARNING

Do not leave people or animals in vehicles
locked from outside with the Safe lock acti-
vated: the doors and windows cannot then
be opened from the inside. Doors locked in

If the vehicle cannot be locked or unlocked
using the remote control, the key code may
not match that of the control unit. This can
occur when the remote control buttons are
frequently pressed outside the range of the
system or if the remote control battery has
been replaced.

In this case, it must be synchronised as fol-
lows:

●

Press any key on the remote control key.

●

WARNING

●

Never leave the key inside whenever you

leave the vehicle - even if only for a mo-
ment. This is particularly important if chil-
dren are to remain in the vehicle. Children
might start the engine or some other elec-
trical component, e.g. electric windows.
Risk of injury!

●

Wait until the vehicle has completely

stopped before taking the key out of the ig-
nition. Otherwise the steering wheel may
lock suddenly. Risk of accident!

CAUTION

●

Each key contains electronic compo-

nents and must, therefore, be protected
from dampness and strong vibrations.

. Go to a

technical service.

WARNING

●

Locking from the outside carelessly or

without good visibility may lead to bruising,
particularly in the case of children.

●

When locking a vehicle, never leave chil-

dren unaccompanied inside, as from the
outside it will be difficult to provide assis-
tance if required.

●

Having the doors locked prevents intrud-

ers from getting in, for example when stop-
ped at a traffic light.

Individualised settings

Unlocking single doors

This optional function unlocks the driver door
only. The other doors remain locked and are
only unlocked when the next command is giv-
en (unlock).

Automatic unlock and lock

The doors and the rear lid are locked auto-
matically when the vehicle reaches a speed
of about 15 km/h (9 mph).

The doors unlock automatically when the key
is removed from the ignition. Additionally, the
driver or front passenger can unlock the
doors by pressing the

›››

page 113

central

lock button or by pulling the front door han-
dle.

WARNING

Locking the doors prevents intruders from
getting into the car, e.g. while waiting at in-
tersections. However, it can also delay as-
sistance in the event of an accident. Risk of
death!

Note

●

Activation of the single door setting can

be requested at your SEAT dealer.

●

In the event of an accident in which the

airbags deploy, the doors will be automati-
cally unlocked for easier access and assis-
tance.

and locking the vehicle again.

If the vehicle is locked and the Safe lock is
deactivated, the vehicle can be opened from
inside by pulling on the door handle.

WARNING

Do not leave people or animals in locked
vehicles with Safe lock activated: the doors
and windows cannot then be opened from
the inside. Doors locked in this manner
could delay assistance in an emergency.

The glass could smash. Risk of injury!

●

Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing

it. If not, it may open unexpectedly while
driving.

●

Never allow children to play in or around

the vehicle. A locked vehicle can be subjec-
ted to extremely high and low tempera-
tures, depending on the time of year, thus
causing serious injuries/illness. It could
even have fatal consequences. Close and

lock both the rear lid and all the other
doors when you are not using the vehicle.

●

Closing the rear lid without observing

and ensuring it is clear could cause serious
injury to you and to third parties. Make sure
that no one is in the path of the rear lid.

the controls on the rear doors.

If the rear door controls are deactivated, the
warning lamp



on the safety button

WARNING

●

When locking the vehicle from the out-

side, make sure that nobody is inside the
vehicle, as the windows cannot be opened
from the inside in an emergency.

●

For safety reasons, use the safety button

that deactivates the window switches

on the rear doors when children are travel-
ling in the rear seats.

CAUTION

●

Keep the windows clean to ensure the

system operates correctly.

any frozen windows

before using the electric windows. Other-
wise you run the risk of damaging the elec-
tric window riser mechanism.

●

Always make sure all of the windows are

closed on leaving the locked vehicle.

Note

●

The vehicle heating and ventilation sys-

tem should be used to ventilate the interior
while driving. Leaving the windows open
could allow dust and other dirt to enter the
vehicle and cause unpleasant noises at
certain speeds.

●

Do not leave the side windows open at

high speeds, as this will overly increase
fuel consumption.

Note

The electric window opening mechanism is
equipped with a thermostat switch. This
may overheat if the window is opened and
closed repeatedly. This causes the window
to lock temporarily. Once the thermostat
switch has cooled down, the window can
be operated once again.

Roll-back function on the electric
windows

The electric windows are equipped with a
roll-back system that reduces risk of injury
when closing windows.

119

Operation

If an obstacle is present, the closing mecha-
nism will stop and the window will roll back a
few centimetres.

If an obstacle prevents closing for the next 10
seconds, the closing mechanism will once
again stop and the window will roll back an-
other few centimetres.

If in the next 10 seconds you attempt to close
the window after it has rolled back the sec-
ond time, only the closing mechanism will be
stopped even if the obstacle is still present.
The roll-back function is still connected.

The roll-back function will only be disconnec-
ted if you once again attempt to close the
window in the following 10 seconds.

In this

case, the window will close at full force

If you wait for a further 10 seconds, the roll-
back function will be once again connected.

. Howev-

er, the symbols indicating the respective po-
sitions of the controls remain the same.

WARNING

Never drive with only the side lights on! The
side lights are not bright enough to illumi-
nate the road ahead and to ensure that
other road users are able to see you. Al-
ways use your dipped beam headlights if it
is dark or if visibility is poor.

CAUTION

●

Use the lights in line with local law.

●

However, drivers always remain responsi-

ble for correctly adjusting and using the
lights.

Note

●

An audible warning will be heard when

the light control is set to



and you remove

the ignition key and open the door. Once
the driver door is closed (ignition off), the
audible warning will stop, whereas the side
lights will remain on to light up the station-
ary vehicle in case this is necessary.

●

Depending on weather conditions (cold

or wet), the lights may mist up temporarily
on the inside. This is particularly the case in
the event of a difference in temperature
between the inside and in front of the light.
By switching on the lights, the area through
which the beam of light is projected will
quickly be demisted, although the edges
may remain misted. The real lights and turn
signals can mist up. This has no influence
on the useful life of the lighting system.

Automatic control of the dipped beam in
combination with the daytime running
lights

If the

dipped beam control

and the

daytime

running lights

are activated at the same time,

the dipped beams and the instrument panel
lighting will automatically come on as re-
quired (e.g. when entering a tunnel) and the
daytime running lights will switch off. When
the automatic dipped beam control switches
off the dipped beams (e.g. when coming out
of a tunnel), the daytime running lights come
back on.

On vehicles with rear lights with bulbs,
when activating the daytime running light
the rear lights are not switched on. A vehi-
cle which does not have the rear lights on

may not be visible to other drivers in the
darkness, in the case of heavy rain or in
conditions of poor visibility.

Please observe any relevant legal require-
ments which may apply in your country.
