Technical Data
•Always properly adjust the front seats.
The danger of fitting a child seat on the front passenger seat
Rear-facing child seats must never be used on the front
passenger seat when the front passenger airbag is enabled.An enabled front airbag on the front passenger side is potentially a major
danger to a child. The front passenger seat is life threatening to a child if
he/she is transported in a rear-facing child seat. You should always transport
all children up to 12 years of age on the rear seat.
If a rear-facing child seat is secured to the front passenger seat, an inflating
airbag can strike it with such great force that critical or fatal injuries may
result.
Therefore we strongly recommend you to transport children on the rear seats.
That is the safest place for children in the vehicle. Alternatively, the front
passenger airbag can be disabled with a key-operated switch ⇒page 44.
When transporting children, use a child seat appropriate to the age and size
of each child ⇒ page 46.
For those vehicles that do not include a key lock switch to turn the airbag off,
an Authorised Service Centre must be consulted.
WARNING
•If a child seat is secured to the front passenger seat, the risk to the child
of sustaining critical or fatal injuries in the event of an accident increases.•Never secure a rear-facing child seat to the front passenger seat if the
front passenger airbag is enabled. The child can suffer critical or fatal inju-
ries when the front passenger airbag is triggered.
•An inflating front passenger airbag can strike the rear-facing child seat
and hurl it with great force against the door, the roof or the backrest.•If, under special circumstances, it is necessary to transport a child in a
rear-facing child seat on the front passenger seat, it is absolutely essential
that you observe the following safety measures:
−Disable the front passenger airbag ⇒page 44, “Deactivating
airbags*”.
− The child seat must be approved by the child seat manufacturer for
use on a front passenger seat with front or side airbag.
− Follow the installation instructions given by the child seat manufac-
turer and observe the safety instructions ⇒page 46, “Child safety”.
− Before properly installing the child seat, push the front passenger
seat completely backwards so that the greatest possible distance to
the front passenger airbag is ensured.
− Ensure that no objects prevent the front passenger seat from being
pushed completely back.
− The backrest of the front passenger seat must be in an upright
position.

Airbag system
42Function of curtain airbags
Fully inflated airbags reduce the risk of head or chest injury in
a side collision.During some side collisions the curtain airbag is triggered on the impact side
of the vehicle ⇒fig. 26 .
In certain types of accident the front, side and curtain airbags may be trig-
gered together.
When the system is triggered, the airbag is filled with propellant gas. In the
process, the curtain bag covers the side windows and door pillars.
In order to provide the desired extra protection in an accident, the airbags
have to deploy extremely rapidly (within thousandth of a second). A fine dust
may develop when the airbag deploys. This is normal and it is not an indica-
tion of fire in the vehicle.
The fully deployed airbags cushion the movement of the front occupants and
help to reduce the risk of injury to the upper body. The special design of the airbag allows the controlled escape of the propel-
lant gas when an occupant puts pressure on the bag. Thus, the head and
chest are surrounded and protected by the airbag.
Safety notes on the operation of the curtain airbag system
If you use airbags correctly, they can considerably reduce the
risk of injury in many kinds of accident.
WARNING
•In order for the side airbags to provide their maximum protection, the
prescribed sitting position must always be maintained with seat belts
fastened while travelling.•For safety reasons, the head air bag must be disconnected in those
vehicles fitted with a passenger compartment separation screen. See an
Authorised Service Centre to make this adjustment.•There must be no other persons, animals or objects between the occu-
pants of the outer seats and the deployment space of the curtain airbags
so that the curtain airbag can deploy without restriction and provide the
greatest possible protection. Therefore, sun blinds which have not been
expressly approved for use in your vehicle may not be attached to the side
windows ⇒page 220, “Accessories, replacement of parts and modifica-
tions”.•The built-in coat hooks should be us ed only for lightweight clothing. Do
not leave any heavy or sharp-edged objects in the pockets. Please, do not
hang the clothes on coat hangers.•The airbags provide protection for just one accident; replace them once
they have deployed.•Any work on the curtain airbag system or removal and installation of
the airbag components for other repairs (such as removal of the roof lining)

– Remove the used battery from the cover.
– Insert the new battery. Make sure that the “+” symbol on the battery is facing downwards. The co rrect polarity is indicated on
the cover.
– After inserting the battery, align the cover and key and press the two parts together.
For the sake of the environmentUsed batteries must be disposed of appropriately and must not be discarded
with ordinary household waste.
Note
•The system must be re-synchronised after each battery replacement to be
able to lock and unlock the car using the remote control ⇒page 107.•The new battery must be of the same type as the original.Electronic immobiliser
The electronic immobiliser is designed to prevent unauthor-
ised persons from starting up the vehicle.There is an electronic chip inside the key which automatically deactivates the
immobiliser when the key is inserted into the ignition lock. The electronic
immobiliser is enabled automatically when the ignition key is removed from
the ignition lock after coming to a stop.
If an uncoded key is used, the message SAFE will appear in the trip recorder
display.
Note
•The engine can only be started using an original SEAT key with the correct
code.•It may not be possible to start the engine with the key if there is another
ignition key from a different make of vehicle on the same key tab.Central lockingDescription
The central locking system enables you to lock and unlock all
the doors, the tailgate and the tank flap together.The central locking system on your vehicle locks and unlocks all the doors
and the tank flap simultaneously. The tailgate is unlocked when the vehicle
is opened. However, the handle must be used to open it. The vehicle can be
locked and unlocked using the remote control ⇒ page 105 or by turning the
key in the lock in the driver's door.
The windows can also be centrally opened or closed using the central locking
system ⇒page 111. The sun roof* can be closed but not opened using the
central locking system.
The central locking system is combined with an anti-theft security system. If
the vehicle is locked with the key from the outside, the interior opening levers
stop working, which prevents unauthorised persons from entering the
vehicle.
Should the central locking system fail to work, you can still normally enable
all the locks individually. The fuel tank flap can be released manually if neces-
sary. For manual release of the tank flap ⇒page 223.

100•The interior lights are switched off, provided the light switch is in the cour-
tesy light position.•The windows and the sun roof* will close as the key is held in the locking
position.•The anti-theft security system will be enabled immediately.
Locking the vehicle without enabling the anti-theft security system
With the anti-theft security system enabled, it is more difficult to break into
the vehicle. If the anti-theft security system has been enabled, the inside
door handles and the central locking switch will not work ⇒.
If you are leaving passengers in the vehicle while it is parked, it is possible to
lock the vehicle without enabling the anti-theft security system.
To do so, turn the key in the driver's door twice in quick succession to position
⇒ page 99, fig. 70.WARNING
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in the car if it is locked from the
outside and the anti-theft security system is enabled, as the doors and
windows cannot then be opened from the inside. Locked doors could delay
assistance in an emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.
Caution
If the driver's door is locked using the key while open, the car will be automat-
ically immobilised and the alarm triggered.
Note
•Please note that when the vehicle is locked without enabling the anti-
theft mechanism, the anti-theft alarm* remains operative. You should there-
fore switch off the interior monitor* before locking the vehicle, as otherwise
the alarm* could be triggered unintentionally.
•The driver's door cannot be locked using the central locking system when
it is still open. The door must be locked separately after it has been closed.
This helps to prevent you from being locked out of the vehicle.Central locking switch
The central locking system can be enabled from inside the
vehicle using the central locking switch on the driver's door.Locking the vehicle

102Locking the doors manually if the central locking fails to work
Should the central locking system fail to work at any time (for
instance if there is no electrical power supply), each door will
have to be locked separately.
A manual locking device (only visible when the door is open) is
provided on the front passenger's door and the rear doors.
– Open the door.
–Use the key ⇒fig. 72 to turn the cap slightly and then fold it
downwards.
– Insert the key into the slot inside ⇒fig. 73 and turn it as far as
the stop, i.e. about 90 degrees to the right (doors on right side)
or to the left (door on the left side).Once the door has been closed it can no longer be opened from the outside.
The door can be opened from the inside by pulling the door handle. If the
child-proof catch is engaged on one of the rear doors, the door can be opened
by pulling the inside door handle once and then opening the door from the
outside.

ma ke su re t he y ar e pr op e rly close d . T h e in di cato rs will a lso flash br i ef ly i f o ne
of the doors or the tailgate or engine bonnet are closed after the alarm system
has been enabled.
LED
When the vehicle is locked, the LED on the top of the driver's door trim will
flash rapidly for about 30 seconds and then continue flashing slowly. This is
to indicate that the anti-theft alarm system (including the interior monitor
and tow-away protection ) is operative. If the LED lights up continuously for
about 30 seconds when the vehicle is locked instead of flashing, this means
the alarm system is not working properly.
Note
•To make sure that the alarm is fully operative when leaving the vehicle,
briefly check that all the doors and windows and the sun roof* are closed.•The alarm is triggered immediately if one of the battery cables is discon-
nected while the alarm system is enabled.
Interior monitoring*
The interior monitor triggers an alarm if it detects movement
inside the vehicle.You should disable the interior monitor if there is a possibility that
the alarm could be triggered, e.g. by a pet or by an object moving
about inside the car ⇒ . The tow-away protection feature, which
is integrated into the alarm system, should be disabled if the car is
being towed or transported (e.g. by rail or ship).
Disabling the interior monitor
– Open the door and pull out the switch (with the symbol
) to
one side of the storage compartment, in the driver's door
⇒ fig. 79 .
