Transporting children safely Saf ety
for c
hildren
Introduction For safety reasons, as we have learned from
accident
s

tatistics, we recommend that chil-
dren under 12 years of age travel in the rear
seats. Depending on their age, height and
weight, children travelling in rear seats must
use a child seat or a seat belt. For safety rea-
sons, the child seat should be installed in the
rear seat, behind the front passenger seat or
in the centre back seat.
The physical laws involved and the forces
acting in a collision apply also to children
››› page 63. But unlike adults, children do not
have fully developed muscle and bone struc-
tures. This means that children are subject to
a greater risk of injury.
To reduce the risk of injuries, children must
always use special child restraint systems
when travelling in the vehicle.
We recommend the use of child safety prod-
ucts from the SEAT Original Accessories Pro-
gramme, which includes systems for all ages
made by “Peke” (not for all countries).
These systems have been especially de-
signed and approved, complying with the
ECE-R44. regulation. Follow the manufacturer's instructions and
obser
v

e any statutory requirements when in-
stalling and using child seats. Always read
and note ››› page 72.
We recommend you always carry the manu-
facturer's Child Seat Instruction Manual to-
gether with the on-board documentation.
Important information regarding the
front pa
ssenger's airbag Read the additional information carefully

 p

age 16.
Read and always observe the safety informa-
tion included in the following chapters:
● Safety distance with respect to the passen-
ger airbag ››

› page 66.
● Objects between the passenger and the
passen
ger side airbag ››› in Front airbags
on p ag
e 69 .
The p
assenger side front airbag, when ena-
bled, is a serious risk for a child that is facing
backward since the airbag can strike the seat
with such force that it can cause serious or
fatal injuries. Children up to 12 years old
should always travel on the rear seat.
Therefore we strongly recommend you to
transport children on the rear seats. This is
the safest location in the vehicle. Alternative-
ly, the front passenger airbag can be disa- bled with a key-operated switch
››› p
age 70.
When transporting children, use a child seat
appropriate to the age and size of each child. WARNING
● If a chi l

d seat is secured to the front pas-
senger seat, the risk to the child of sustain-
ing critical or fatal injuries in the event of an
accident increases.
● An inflating front passenger airbag can
strike the re
ar-facing child seat and project it
with great force against the door, the roof or
the backrest.
● Never install a child seat facing backwards
on the front pa
ssenger seat unless the front
passenger front airbag has been disabled.
Risk of potentially fatal injuries to the child!
However, if it is necessary, in exceptional ca-
ses, to transport a child in the front passen-
ger seat, the front passenger front airbag
must always be disabled ››› page 70, Deacti-
vation of front passenger front airbag*. If the
front passenger seat has a height adjustment
option, move it to the highest position.
● For those vehicles that do not include a key
lock swit
ch to deactivate the airbag, the vehi-
cle must be taken to a technical service.
● All vehicle occupants, especially children,
must a
ssume the proper sitting position and
be properly belted in while travelling.
● Never hold children or babies on your lap,
this can r
esult in potentially fatal injuries to
the child! 72

Transporting children safely
●
Never al lo
w a child to be transported in a
vehicle without being properly secured, or to
stand up or kneel on a seat while travelling.
In an accident, the child could be flung
through the vehicle, causing possibly fatal in-
juries to themselves and to the other vehicle
occupants.
● If children assume an improper sitting posi-
tion when the vehicl
e is moving, they expose
themselves to greater risk of injury in the
event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an
accident. This is particularly important if the
child is travelling on the front passenger seat
and the airbag system is triggered in an acci-
dent; as this could cause serious injury or
even death.
● A suitable child seat can protect your child!
● Never leave a child alone in the child seat
or inside the v
ehicle because depending on
the season, very high temperatures may be
reached inside a parked vehicle, which could
be fatal.
● Children who are less than 1.5 metres tall
must not
wear a normal seat belt without a
child seat, as this could cause injuries to the
abdominal and neck areas during a sudden
braking manoeuvre or in an accident.
● Do not allow the seat belt to become twis-
ted and the seat belt
should be properly in
place ››› page 61.
● Only one child may occupy a child seat
››› p

age 73, Child seats. ●
When a chil d se

at is mounted in the rear
seats, the door child-proof lock should be ac-
tivated ››› page 110. Child seats

age 16. WARNING
When travelling, children must be secured in
the vehic l

e with a restraint system suitable
for age, weight and size.
● Read and always observe information and
warnings
concerning the use of child seats
››› page 72. WARNING
The retaining rings are designed only for use
with “ISOFIX” and Top T

ether* system child
seats.
● Never secure other child seats that do not
have the “ISOFIX” or Top
Tether* system, or
retaining belts or objects to the fastening
rings - this can result in potentially fatal inju-
ries to the child.
● Ensure that the child seat is secured cor-
rectly us
ing the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether* se-
curing rings. WARNING
An undue installation of the safety seat will
incre a

se the risk of injury in the event of a
crash.
● Never tie the retainer strap to a hook in the
luggage c
ompartment.
● Never secure or tie luggage or other items
to the lower anc
horages (ISOFIX) or the upper
ones (Top Tether). Categorisation of child seats into
gr
oup
s Only use child seats that are officially ap-
pr
o
ved and s

uitable for the child.
Child seats are subject to the regulation ECE-
R 44. ECE-R stands for: Economic Commis-
sion for Europe Regulation.
The child seats are grouped into 5 catego-
ries:
Group 0: Up to 10 kg (up to around 9
months)
Group 0+: Up to 13 kg (up to around 18
months)
Group 1: from 9 to 18 kg (up to approx. 4
years old)
Group 2: from 15 to 25 kg (up to approx. 7
years old) »

●
Never st ar
t the engine when the vehicle is
on the jack. Risk of accident.
● If work is to be carried out underneath the
vehicle, thi
s must be secured by suitable
means. Otherwise, there is a risk of injury. Note
The jack does not generally require any main-
t enanc e. If

required, it should be greased us-
ing universal type grease. Spare wheel (temporary spare
wheel)*
The temporary spare wheel is stored under
the floor p
anel
in the lug g

age compartment
and is attached by a thumbnut.
How to use the temporary spare wheel
If you ever have a punctured tyre or loss of
pressure, the temporary spare wheel is only
intended for temporary use until you reach a
workshop. Change it for a duty wheel as soon
as possible.
Please note the following restrictions when
using the temporary spare wheel. This tem-
porary spare wheel has been specially de-
signed for your vehicle, thus, it cannot be
changed with the temporary spare wheel
from another vehicle. No other type of tyre (normal summer or win-
ter tyre) m

ay be fitted on the compact tempo-
rary spare wheel rim.
Snow chains
For technical reasons, snow chains must not
be used on the temporary spare wheel.
If you have a puncture on one of the front
wheels when using snow chains, fit the tem-
porary spare wheel in place of one of the rear
wheels. Fit the snow chains on the rear wheel
that you have removed and replace the punc-
tured front wheel with this wheel.
Extraction of the spare wheel in vehicles
with SEAT SOUND 6 speakers (with subwoof-
er)*
● Disassemble the subwoofer's floor p
anel
(carpet) as follows:
● Pull the carpet upwards to remove it.
● Disconnect the subwoofer's s
peaker cable.
● Turn the securing wheel anti-clockwise.
● Remove the subwoofer s
peaker and the
spare wheel.
● When replacing the spare wheel, place the
subwoofer s
peaker in the direction indicated
by the arrow and with the word “FRONT” fac-
ing forward.
● Reconnect the speaker cable and firmly ro-
tate the sec urin

g wheel clockwise so that the subwoofer syst
em and wheel
are firmly in
place. WARNING
● After fittin g the t

emporary spare wheel,
check the tyre pressures as soon as possible.
Failure to do so may cause an accident. The
tyre pressures are listed on the inside of the
fuel tank flap.
● Do not drive at over 80 km/h (50 mph)
when the temporary
spare wheel is fitted on
the vehicle: risk of accident!
● Avoid heavy acceleration, hard braking and
fast
cornering: risk of accident!
● Never use more than one temporary spare
wheel at the same time, ri
sk of accident.
● No other type of tyre (normal summer or
winter tyr
e) may be fitted on the compact
temporary spare wheel rim. Tyre repair

fuse a
s

signments based on equipment and
the use of the same fuse for various electrical
components, it is not possible to provide an
up-to-date summary of the fuse positions for
the electrical components at the time this
manual was printed. For detailed information
about the fuse positions, please consult a
technical service.
In general, a fuse can be assigned to various
electrical components. Likewise, an electrical
component can be protected by several
fuses.
Only replace fuses when the cause of the
problem has been solved. If a newly inserted
fuse blows after a short time, you must have
the electrical system checked by a special-
ised workshop as soon as possible. WARNING
The high voltages in the electrical system can
give serious el

ectrical shocks, causing burns
and even death!
● Never touch the electrical wiring of the igni-
tion system. ●
Take c ar

e not to cause short circuits in the
electrical system. WARNING
Using unsuitable fuses, repairing fuses or
bridgin g a curr ent

circuit without fuses can
cause a fire and serious injury.
● Never use a fuse with a higher value. Only
replac
e fuses with a fuse of the same amper-
age (same colour and markings) and size.
● Never repair a fuse.
● Never replace a fuse by a metal strip, staple
or similar
. CAUTION
● To prev ent

damage to the vehicle's electric
system, before replacing a fuse always turn
off the ignition, the lights and all electrical
elements and remove the key from the igni-
tion.
● If you replace a fuse with higher-rating
fuse, y
ou could cause damage to another part
of the electrical system.
● Protect the fuse boxes when open to pre-
vent the entry
of dust or humidity as they can
damage the electrical system.
● Always carefully remove the fuse box cov-
ers and refit
them correctly to avoid problems
with your vehicle. Note
● One component m a

y have more than one
fuse.
● Several components may run on a single
fuse.
● In the v

ehicle, there are more fuses than
those indicated in thi
s chapter. These should
only be changed by a specialised workshop.
● Positions not containing a fuse do not ap-
pear in the fol
lowing tables.

bulbs* (xenon light) must be handled correct-
ly. Otherwise, there is a risk of death.
● When changing bulbs, please take care not
to injure y
ourself on sharp parts in the head-
light housing. CAUTION
● Remov e the ignition k

ey before working on
the electric system. Otherwise, a short circuit
could occur.
● Switch off the lights or parking lights be-
fore y
ou change a bulb. For the sake of the environment
Please ask your specialist retailer how to dis-
pose of u sed b

ulbs in the proper manner. Note
● Depending on w e

ather conditions (cold or
wet), the front lights, the fog lights, the tail
lights and the turn signals may be temporari-
ly misted. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system. By switching on
the lights, the area through which the beam
of light is projected will quickly be demisted.
However, the edges may continue to be mis-
ted.
● Please check at regular intervals that all
lighting (espec
ially the exterior lighting) on
your vehicle is functioning properly. This is not only in the interest of your own safety,
but a
l

so that of all other road users.
● Before changing a bulb, make sure you
have the corr
ect new bulb.
● Do not touch the glass part of the bulb with
your bare h
ands, 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
