Airbag system
Sharp braking before an accident may cause
a passenger not w earing a seat belt t
o be
thr
own forward into the area of the deploying
airbag. In this case, the inflating airbag may
inflict critical or fatal injuries on the occupant.
This also applies to children.
Always maintain the greatest possible dis-
tance between yourself and the front airbag.
This way, the front airbags can completely
deploy when triggered, providing their maxi-
mum protection.
The most important factors for triggering the
airbag are the type of accident, the angle of
impact and the vehicle speed.
Whether or not the airbags are triggered de-
pends primarily on the vehicle deceleration
rate resulting from the collision and detected
by the control unit. If the vehicle deceleration
occurring during the collision and measured
by the control unit remains below the speci-
fied reference values, the front, side and/or
curtain airbags will not be triggered. Take into
account that the visible damage in a vehicle
involved in an accident, no matter how seri-
ous, is not a determining factor for the air-
bags to have been triggered. WARNING

Airbag system
Deactivate the front passenger front airbag
only if you hav e t
o use a r
ear-facing child
seat in the front passenger seat.
SEAT recommends fitting the child seat in the
rear seat to avoid having to deactivate the
front passenger airbag.
Front passenger front airbag switch
When the front passenger airbag is deacti-
vated, this means that only the front passen-
ger front airbag is deactivated. All the other
airbags in the vehicle remain activated.
Disconnect the front passenger front air-
bag

Safety
to stand up or kneel on a seat while travel-
ling. In an accident, the child coul
d be flung
thr
ough the vehicle, causing possibly fatal
injuries to themselves and to the other vehi-
cle occupants.

Emergencies
Only attach the tow rope or the tow bar to
the t o
wing eyes pr
ovided or a towing bracket.
If the vehicle is factory-equipped with a
towing bracket, it is only allowed to tow with
a tow bar if this has been specially designed
to be installed with a tow hitch
