Introduction The speed warning function will warn the
driver if a pre-set maximum speed is excee-
ded. The system gives an warning buzzer sig-
nal if the set speed is exceeded by about 3
km/h. The warning lamp
 and the driver
message Speed limit exceeded!
will be dis-
played simultaneously on the instrument
panel display. The warning lamp  switches
off when reducing speed below the stored
maximum limit.
You are recommended to store this speed
limit warning if you always wish to be re-
minded of a particular speed limit. This could
be when driving in countries with general speed limits, or if a particular speed should
not be exceeded when winter tyres are fitted
etc.
Note
● Please bear in mind that, even with the
speed warning function, it is still important
to keep an eye on the vehicle speed with the
speedometer and to observe the legal speed
limits.
● The speed limit warning function in the ver-
sion for several countries warns you at a
speed of 120 km/h (80 mph). This is a facto-
ry-set speed limit. Setting speed limit warning
You can use the radio or the Easy Connect* to
set, alter or cancel the speed limit warning.

Operation
Service interval display Service interval display The service interval indication appears on the
instrument panel display
››› Fig. 82 4 .
SEAT distinguishes between services with en-
gine oi l
change (e.g. Oil change service) and
services without
engine oil change (e.g. In-
spection).
In vehicles with Services established by time
or mileage, the service intervals are already
pr e-defined.
In

vehicles with LongLife Service , the inter-
vals are determined individually. Technical
progress has made it possible to considera-
bly reduce servicing requirements. The tech-
nology used by SEAT ensures that your vehi-
cle only has an Oil Servicing when it is neces-
sary. To establish when the oil servicing is
due (max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions
of use and individual driving styles are con-
sidered. The service pre-warning first ap-
pears 20 days before the date established for
the corresponding service. The kilometres
(miles) remaining until the next service are
always rounded up to the nearest 100 km
(miles) and the time is given in complete
days. The current service message cannot be
viewed until 500 km after the last service. Pri-
or to this only lines are visible on the display. Inspection reminder
When the Service date is approaching, when
the ignition is switched on a
Service remind-
er is displayed.
In vehicles without text messages , a s
panner
is displayed on the instrument panel  with
a figure giv
en in km. The number of kilome-
tres shown is the maximum number that may
be driven until the next service. After a few
seconds, the display mode changes. A clock
symbol appears and the number of days until
the next service appointment is due.
In vehicles with text messages , Serv
ice in ---
km (miles) or --- days is displayed on the in- strument panel.
Service due
After the service date, an audible warning is
given when the ignition i
s switched on and
the spanner displayed on the screen flashes
for a few seconds . In
vehicles with text
messages, Service in --- km or --- days is dis-
played on the instrument panel.
Reading a service notification
With the ignition switched on, the engine off
and the vehicle at a standstill, the current
service notification
can be read:
Press and hold the button ››› Fig. 82 4 for
more than 5 seconds to consult the service
message. When the service date has past
, a minus sign
is displayed in front of the number of kilome-
tres or days. In vehicles with text messages
the following is displayed: Service --- km
(miles) or --- days ago .
The time can also be set via the  key and
Setup function button in the Easy Connect
system ››› page 81 .
R e

setting service interval display
If the service was not carried out by a SEAT
dealership, the display can be reset as fol-
lows:
● To reset the service interval display, turn
the ignition off and press and hold the but-
ton ››› Fig. 82 4 .
● Switch the ignition back on.
● Release the button ››› Fig. 82 4 and press
the button 4 again for the next 20 seconds.
Note
● The service message disappears after a few
seconds, when the engine is started or when OK/RESET is pressed on the windscreen wiper
lever, or OK on the multifunction steering
wheel.
● In vehicles with the LongLife system in
which the battery has been disconnected for
a long period of time, it is not possible to cal-
culate the date of the next service. Therefore
the service interval display may not be cor- rect. In this case, bear in mind the maximum 80

Please note the following when using the
central locking switch to lock your vehicle:
● It is not possible to open the doors or the
rear lid from the outside
(for safety reasons,
e.
g. when stopped at traffic lights).
● The LED in the central locking switch lights
up when all the doors are closed and locked.
● You can open the doors individually from
the inside by pulling the inside door handle. ●
In the event of an accident in which the air-
bags inflate, doors locked from the inside will
be automatically unlocked to facilitate access
and assistance. WARNING
● The central locking switch also operates
when the ignition is switched off and auto-
matically locks all the vehicle doors when the
button  is pressed.
● The central locking switch does not operate
if the vehicle is locked from the outside and
the anti-theft security system is switched on.
● Locked doors could delay assistance in an
emergency, potentially putting lives at risk.
Do not leave anyone, especially children, in
the vehicle. Note
The doors and the tailgate are locked auto-
matically when the vehicle reaches a speed of
about 15 km/h (Auto Lock) ››› page 82. You
can unlock the vehicle again using button  on the central locking switch.

● Ensure the rear lid is locked after closing it.
If not, it may open unexpectedly while driv-

● Closing the rear lid without observing and
ensuring it is clear could cause serious injury
to you and to third parties. Make sure that no
one is in the path of the rear lid.
● Never drive with the rear lid open or half-
closed, exhaust gases may penetrate into the

● If you only open the rear lid, do not leave
the key inside. The vehicle cannot be opened
if the key is left inside. Tailgate automatic lock
Where the vehicle has been locked by press-
ing the
 button on the remote control with
