Safe driving
the chest and the centre of the steering
wheel
››› Fig. 46. If distance is less than 25
c m, the airb
ag system may not protect you
properly.
● If your physical constitution prevents you
from maintaining the minimum distance of 25
cm, contact a specialised workshop. The
workshop will help you decide if special spe-
cific modifications are necessary.
● When driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
ring at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions.
This reduces the risk of injury when the driver
airbag is triggered.
● Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or in any other manner (e.g.
in the centre of the steering wheel). In such
cases, if the airbag is triggered, you may sus-
tain injuries to the arms, hands and head.
● To reduce the risk of injury to the driver
during sudden braking manoeuvres or an ac-
cident, never drive with the backrest tilted far
back! The airbag system and seat belts can
only provide optimal protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
driver is wearing his or her seat belt correct-
ly.
● Adjust the head restraint properly to ach-
ieve optimal protection. Adjusting the steering wheel position

The height and reach of the steering wheel
can be freely adjusted to suit the driver.
– Adjust the driver seat to the correct posi-
tion. WARNING
● Incorrect use of the steering column adjust-
ment function and an incorrect seating posi-
tion can result in serious injury.
● To avoid accidents, the steering column
should be adjusted only when the vehicle is
stationary.
● Adjust the driver seat or steering wheel so
that there is a distance of at least 25 cm be-
tween the steering wheel and your chest
››› Fig. 46. If you fail to observe the minimum
di s

tance, the airbag will not protect you. Risk
of fatal injury.
● If your physical constitution does not allow
you to maintain the minimum distance of
25 cm, contact a Technical Service. The Tech-
nical Service will help you to decide if certain
specific modifications are necessary.
● If you adjust the steering wheel so that it
points towards your face, the driver airbag
will not protect you properly in the event of
an accident. Make sure that the steering
wheel points towards your chest. ●
When driving, always hold the steering
wheel with both hands on the outside of the
ring at the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock positions.
Never hold the steering wheel at the 12
o'clock position, or in any other manner (e.g.
in the centre of the steering wheel, or on the
inside of the rim). In such cases, if the airbag
is triggered, you may sustain injuries to your
arms, hands and head. Correct sitting position for front
passenger
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of
injury in the event of an accident, we recom-
mend the following adjustments for the front
passenger:
– Move the front passenger seat back as far
as possible ››› .
– Move the seat backrest to an upright posi-
tion so that your back rests completely
against it.
– Adjust the head restraint so that its upper
edge is at the same level as the top of your
head, or as close as possible to the same
level as the top of your head ››› page 32.
– Always keep both feet in the footwell in
front of the front passenger seat.
– Fasten your seat belt securely ››› page 34.

Operation
If any of both turn signals fails, the warning
lamp will start flashing twice faster than nor-
mal.
For further information on the turn signals,
please see ››› page 93.
“SAFE” Electronic immobiliser* This warning lamp flashes if an unauthorised
key is used.
Inside the key there is a chip that deactivates
the electronic immobiliser automatically
when the key is inserted into the ignition.
The electronic immobiliser will be activated
again automatically as soon as you pull the
key out of the ignition lock.
If the following message* is shown on the in-
strument panel display:
SAFE

The engine can, however, be started if the
appropriate coded SEAT genuine key is used. Note
The vehicle cannot operate properly if you do
not have a genuine SEAT key. Digital instrument panel

stic signal will sound at the same
time, reminding the driver to refuel. At this
point there are still 7 litres of fuel in the tank.

Service interval display Fig. 76
Service interval display The service indication is shown on the instru-

S EA
T distinguishes between services with
en-
gine oil change (e.g. Interval Service) and
services without
engine oil change (e.g. In- spection Service). The service interval display
only indicates the dates of services that in-
clude engine oil change. The dates of all oth-
er services, such as Inspection Service or
brake fluid change, appear in the sticker on
the door pillar or in the Maintenance Pro-
gramme.
Vehicles with
service intervals dependent on
time/distance travelled already have certain
service intervals set.
The intervals are calculated separately in ve-
hicles with LongLife service. Technical pro-
gre

ss has made it possible to considerably
reduce servicing requirements. With the
LongLife System, SEAT ensures that your ve-
hicle only has an interval service when it is
necessary. To calculate this (max. two years),
the conditions under which the vehicle is
used and the individual driving style are also
taken into account. The service pre-warning
will appear at 20 days or less prior to the cor-
responding service. The distance travelled is
rounded off to the nearest 100 km and the
time to full days. The current service message
can only be consulted 500 km or more after
the last service. Until that time, only dashes
are displayed.
Service warning
A service warning will appear when the igni-
tion i

s switched on if a service is due soon. The instrument panel display will show the
“spanner symbol”
 and the “km (miles)”
indication, along with a clock symbol with
the days remaining until the date of the next
service. The figure indicated is the maximum
number of kilometres (miles) remaining be-
fore the date of the next service. The indica-
tion changes after a few seconds. A “clock
symbol” appears and the number of days un-
til the service appointment should be carried
out.
Service
If a service is due, an audible warning will
sound and the flashing “spanner”  symbol
will be shown along with the fixed text SERV-
ICE.
If no service is carried out following the indi-
cation on the instrument panel, the excess
distance travelled and the excess time follow-
ing the SERVICE warning will be displayed.
Reading the service message
The current service message can be c
onsul-
ted with the ignition on, the engine switched
off and the vehicle at a standstill:
● Press the  button on the instrument pan-
el as often as necessary until the “spanner”
symbol  is displayed.

wise for the left-hand side doors ››› Fig. 82 and clockwise for the right-hand side
doors.
Deactivating the childproof lock – Unlock the vehicle and open the door
whose childproof lock you want to deacti-
vate.
– With the door open, rotate the groove in
the door using the ignition key, anti-clock-
wise for the right-hand side doors, and
clockwise for the left-hand side doors

● Please check at regular intervals that all
lighting (especially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is
not only in the interest of your own safety,
but also that of all other road users.
● Before changing a bulb, make sure you
have the correct new bulb.

your bare hands, use a cloth or paper towel
instead. The residue left by the fingerprints
would vaporise as a result of the heat gener- ated by the bulb, they will be deposited on
the reflector and will impair its surface. Single headlight bulb change
