Spare key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys,
the vehicle ID number is required.
Each new key contains a microchip which
must be coded with the data from the vehicle
electronic immobiliser. A vehicle key will not
work if it does not contain a microchip or the
microchip has not been encoded. This is also
true for keys which are specially cut for the
vehicle.
The vehicle keys or new spare keys can be
obtained from a SEAT Official Service, a spe-
cialised workshop or an approved key service
qualified to create this kind of key.
New keys or spare keys must be synchronised
before use ››› page 100

turn signal lamp in the switch  will flash at
the same time. The simultaneous hazard
warning lights also work when the ignition is

Emergency braking warning
If the vehicle brakes suddenly and continu-
ously at a speed of more than 80 km/h (50
mph), the brake light flashes several times per
second to warn the vehicles driving behind. If
you continue braking, the hazard warning
lights will come on automatically when the
vehicle comes to a standstill. They switch off
automatically when the vehicle starts to
move again. WARNING

Lights
With the ignition on and without light activa-
tion, the anal ogue instrument panel lighting
r
emains activated in daytime light conditions.
The lighting is reduced as the exterior light di-
minishes. In some cases, e.g. when driving
through a tunnel without the  function ac-
tive, the instrument panel lighting may even
switch off. The objective of this function is to
provide the driver with a visual indication that
he or she should activate the dipped beam.
If your vehicle is equipped with a digital in-
strument panel (Digital SEAT Cockpit), the
following message will appear Turn on the
lights on the instrument panel.

Operation
USB power sockets
Depending on the equipment and the coun-
try, the v ehicl
e may also have USB connec-
tions exclusively for charging or as a power
socket.
These USB ports are located at the rear of
the console, between the front seats . These
connectors can work at a maximum power of
up to 10.5 W per port.
They are not intended for file playback.
230 volt power socket*
With the engine running, the power socket
››› Fig. 148 activates automatically as soon
as a connector is plugged in. If there is
enough power available, the socket can still
be used while the engine is off ››› Connect an electrical device: Open the co
v-
er and insert the plug int
o the power socket
as far as possible to unlock the built-in child
lock. The socket only supplies power once
the child lock is unlocked. LED on the power socket

Flashing green
light: The ignition is switched off, but
ther
e is enough po

wer available
to continue supplying the socket
with current for a maximum of 10
minutes. If the connector is un-
plugged before this time elap-
ses, the socket is disconnected
and cannot be used again until
the ignition is switched on again.
Flashing red
light: There is an anomaly, e.g. dis-
connection due t
o a curr

ent
surge or overheating. Disconnection due to overheating
When the t
emper

ature exceeds a certain val-
ue, the 230 volt socket inverter is automati-
cally disconnected. The disconnection pre-
vents overheating when the power consump-
tion of the connected devices is excessive or
the ambient temperature is very high. The
230-volt power supply can be used once
again after a cooling time. First unplug the
connector of the connected device and then
plug it back in again. This prevents the elec-
trical device from being switched on again if
this is not wanted. WARNING
The electrical system is under high voltage!
