Safety switch 5 on the driver door can be
u sed t
o di

sable the electric window buttons
in the rear doors.
Safety switch not pressed: buttons on rear
doors are activated.
Safety switch pressed: buttons on rear doors
are deactivated.
The safety control symbol  lights up in yel-
low if the buttons on the rear door are switch-
ed off. WARNING
Observe the safety warnings ›››
in Intro-
duction on pag e 88
.
● Incorrect use of the electric windows can
res
ult in injury.
● Never close the rear lid without observing
and ensurin
g it is clear, to do otherwise could
cause serious injury to you and third parties.
Make sure that no one is in the path of a win-
dow.
● The engine may accidentally be started and
be out of c
ontrol.
● If the ignition is switched on, the electric
equipment cou
ld be activated with risk of in-
jury, for example, in the electric windows.
● The doors can be locked using the remote
contro
l key. This could become an obstacle
for assistance in an emergency situation. ●
Alw a

ys take the key with you when you
leave the vehicle.
● The electric windows will work until the ig-
nition has
been switched off and one of the
front doors has been opened.
● If necessary, use the safety switch to disa-
ble the r
ear electric windows. Make sure that
they have been disabled. Note
If the window is not able to close because it
i s s

tiff or because of an obstruction, the win-
dow will automatically open again
››› page 125. If this happens, check why the
window could not be closed before attempt-
ing to close it again. Roll-back function
The roll-back function reduces the risk of in-
jur
y
when the el

ectric windows close.
● If a window is obstructed when closing au-
tomatic
ally, the window stops at this point
and lowers immediately ››› .
● Next, check why the window does not close
bef or
e att

empting it again.
● If you try within the following 10 seconds
and the window c
loses again with difficulty
or there is an obstruction, the automatic clos-
ing will stop working for 10 seconds. ●
If the windo
w is still obstructed, the win-
dow will stop at this point.
● If there is no obvious reason why the win-
dow cannot
be closed, try to close it again by
pulling the tab within ten seconds. The win-
dow closes with maximum force. The roll-
back function is now deactivated.
● If more than 10 seconds pass, the window
wil
l open fully when you operate one of the
buttons. One-touch closing is reactivated. WARNING
Observe the safety warnings ›››
in Opening
and clo s
ing of the electric windows* on
page 125.
● The roll-back function does not prevent fin-
gers
or other parts of the body getting
pinched against the window frame. Risk of
accident. Convenience opening/closing

distribution of electrical energy. This signifi-
c antly
impr
oves reliability when starting the
engine, and also prolongs the useful life of
the battery.
The main functions incorporated in the power
management system are battery diagnosis,
residual current management and dynamic
power management.
Battery diagnosis
The battery diagnosis function constantly
registers the condition of the battery. Sen-
sors detect the battery voltage, battery cur-
rent and battery temperature. This enables
the system to calculate the current power lev-
el and charge condition of the battery.
Residual current management
The residual current management reduces
power consumption while the vehicle is
parked. It controls the supply of power to the
various electrical devices while the ignition is
switched off. The system takes the battery di-
agnosis data into consideration.
Depending on the power level of the battery,
switch off the individual electrical devices
one after the other to prevent the battery
from losing too much charge and to ensure
that the engine can be started reliably. Dynamic power management
While the
vehicle is moving, this function dis-
tributes the available power to the various
electrical devices and systems according to
their requirements. The power management
ensures that on-board systems do not con-
sume more electrical power than the alterna-
tor can supply, and thus maintains the maxi-
mum possible battery power level. Note
● Neither is the po

wer management system
able to overcome the given physical limits.
Please remember that the power and useful
life of the battery are limited.
● When there is a risk that the vehicle will
not st
art, the alternator power failure or low
battery charge level warning lamp will be
shown  ››› page 108. Flat battery
Starting ability has first priority.
Shor
t
trip

s, city traffic and low temperatures
all place a heavy load on the battery. In these
conditions a large amount of power is con-
sumed, but only a small amount is supplied.
The situation is also critical if electrical devi-
ces are in use when the engine is not run-
ning. In this case power is consumed when
none is being generated. In these situations you will be aware that the
power m

anagement system is intervening to
control the distribution of electrical power.
When the vehicle is parked for long periods
If you do not drive your vehicle for a period of
several days or weeks, the power manage-
ment will gradually shut off the electrical de-
vices one by one or reduce the amount of cur-
rent they are using. This limits the amount of
power consumed and helps to ensure relia-
ble starting even after a long period. Some
convenience functions, such as remote vehi-
cle opening, may not be available under cer-
tain circumstances. These functions will be
restored when you switch on the ignition and
start the engine.
With the engine switched off
For example, if you listen to the sound sys-
tem with the engine switched off the battery
will run down.
If the energy consumption means there is a
risk that the engine will not start, a text will
appear in vehicles with a driver information
system*.
This driver indicator tells you that you must
start the engine so that the battery can re-
charge.

Checking and refilling levels
CAUTION
● Do not mi x
cleaning products recommen-
ded by SEAT with other products. This could
lead to flocculation and may block the wind-
screen washer jets.
● When topping up service fluids, make abso-
lutely c
ertain that you fill the fluids into the
correct reservoirs. Using the wrong fluids
could cause serious malfunctions and engine
damage!
● Not having windscreen wiper fluid reduces
vis
ibility through the windscreen, and leads
to loss of visibility in headlights in models
with headlight washer. Battery

The battery is located in the engine compart-
ment and is almost maintenance-free. It is
checked as part of the Inspection Service.
Nevertheless, check the terminals are clean
and have the correct tightening torque, espe-
cially in summer and winter.
Disconnecting the battery
The battery should only be disconnected in
exceptional cases. When the battery is dis- connected, some of the vehicle's functions
are “los

t” (››› table on page 253). These
functions will require resetting after the bat-
tery is reconnected.
Deactivate the anti-theft alarm* before you
disconnect the battery Otherwise the alarm
will be triggered.

current consumption when the engine is left
unused for long periods of time ››› page 239.
Some functions, such as the interior lights, or
the remote door opening, may be temporarily
disabled to prevent the battery from running
flat. These functions will come back on as
soon as the ignition is switched on and the
engine started. Winter conditions
During the w

inter, the starting power may be
reduced, and if necessary, the battery should
be charged ››› in Important safety warn-

e. Please refer to a SEAT Official
Service or a workshop specialising in batter-
ies: risk of burns or exploding battery!
The battery must not be opened. Never try to
change the fluid level of the battery. Other-
wise explosive gas is released from the bat-
tery that could cause an explosion. 
Wear eye protection.

Battery acid is very corrosive and caustic. Wear
protective gloves and eye protection. In the event
of electrolyte splashes, rinse off with plenty of
water.

Fires, sparks, open flames and smoking are pro-
hibited.

The battery should only be charged in a well-ven-
tilated zone. Risk of explosion!
