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 a multifunction steering wheel, there are no buttons on the
windscreen wiper lever. The multifunction display can only be controlled
from the buttons on the multifunction steering wheel.
The number of menus displayed on the instrument panel will vary according
to the vehicle electronics and equipment.
A specialised dealer will be able to programme or modify additional func-
tions, according to the vehicle equipment. SEAT recommends visiting a
Technical 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. To display the menus, confirm the warning by pressing OK
.

● Never leave children or disabled people alone in the vehicle if the
doors are to be locked. Therefore, passengers will be locked inside the
vehicle. They could be trapped in the car in an emergency and will not be
able to get themselves to safety. Individuals locked in the vehicle can be
exposed to very high or very low temperatures.
● Depending on the time of the year, temperatures inside a locked and
closed vehicle can be extremely high or extremely low resulting in seri-
ous injuries and illness or even death, particularly for young children.

Unsuitable or careless closing and locking of the rear lid could cause se-
rious injuries.
● Never allow children to play inside or around the vehicle without su-
pervision, especially if the rear lid is open. Children could enter the lug-
gage compartment, close the rear lid and become trapped. A locked vehi-
cle can be subjected to extremely high and low temperatures, depending

WARNING
It is possible that the rear lid does not open completely or, if it is open,
closes alone if a large amount of snow has built up on it or if a luggage
rack is fitted. In this case, the rear lid must be supported.

● When using a trailer, ensure that there is sufficient space to open and
close the rear lid.
● Before opening the rear lid, any kind of equipment carrier should be re-
moved, for example a bicycle carrier.
CAUTION
In case of repeated short-term use, the system is turned off to avoid over-
heating.
● When it has cooled, it may be used once again. During this time, the
rear lid may be manually opened or closed applying a little more effort.
● If the vehicle battery is disconnected or the fuse blows when the rear lid
is open, the rear lid system must be re-initialised. To do this, close the rear
lid.
Note
Before closing the rear lid, make sure that the key has not been left inside
the luggage compartment. Electric windows
