Introduction
With the ignition switched on, it is possible to read the different functions of
the display by scrolling through the menus.
In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel, the multifunction display can
only be operated with the multifunction steering wheel buttons.
The number of menus displayed on the instrument panel will vary according
to the vehicle electronics and equipment.
A specialised workshop will be able to programme or modify additional
functions, according to the vehicle equipment. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT Official Service.
Some menu options can only be read when the vehicle is at a standstill.
As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it will not be possible to read
the menus. Some warning messages can be confirmed and made to disap-
pear with the windscreen wiper lever button or the multifunction steering
wheel button.

Replacing a key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys, the vehicle chassis 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 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 specialised workshop or an approved key service qualified to cre-
ate this kind of key.
New keys or spare keys must be synchronised before use ⇒ page 91.

116Lights and visibility
When a car that is manufactured in a country that drives on the right travels
to a country that drives on the left (or vice versa), it is normally necessary to
cover part of the headlight bulbs with stickers or to change the adjustment
of the headlights to avoid dazzling other drivers.
In such cases, the regulations specify certain light values that must be com-
plied with for designated points of the light distribution. This is known as
“Tourist light”.
The light distribution that the halogen and full-LED headlights of the SEAT
Leon range have, allows the specific “tourist light” values to be met without
the need for stickers or changes in the settings.
Note
“Tourist light” is only allowed temporarily. If you are planning a long stay in
a country that drives on the other side, you should take the vehicle to an
Authorised Technical Service to change the headlights.
Coming home “function”
This function may be connected/disconnected through the radio menu. The
“Coming Home” and/or “Leaving Home” delay functions may also be set
(default: 30 sec.).
Vehicle with halo-
gen headlightsIn the “Coming Home” function, the daytime running
lights (DRL), the rear side lights and the licence plate
lights are turned on.

LED headlightsIn the “Coming Home” function, the dipped beams
and the daytime running lights (DRL), the rear side
lights and the licence plate lights are switched on.

ry light switch in position ⇒ Fig. 65.

● Activate the headlight flashers for approximately 1 second.
● Activated for any position of the rotary light switch.

Deactivation
● If no door has been closed, they go out automatically after 60 seconds.
● After the last door has been closed, the headlights will be switched off
after the “Coming Home” delay (as established in the radio menu).
● On turning the light switch to position ⇒ Fig. 65 .

Windscreen wiper and rear wiper systems
Introduction
Additional information and warnings:
● Changing wheels round
● Heating, ventilation, cooling
● Caring for and cleaning the vehicle exterior
WARNING
If the water from the windscreen washer does not contain enough anti-
freeze, it may freeze on the windscreen and rear window, reducing for-
ward and rear visibility.
● In winter, ensure the windscreen washer contains enough anti-freeze.
● In cold conditions, you should not use the wash/wipe system unless
you have warmed the windscreen with the ventilation system. The anti-
freeze could freeze on the windscreen and reduce visibility.
WARNING
Worn or dirty wiper blades reduce visibility and increase the risk of acci-
dent and serious injury.
● Always replace damaged or worn blades or blades which do not clean
the windscreen correctly.
CAUTION
In icy conditions, always check that the wiper blades are not frozen to the
glass before using the wipers. In cold weather, it may help to leave the vehi-
cle parked with the wipers in service position ⇒ page 122. Control lamp
lights upPossible causeSolution
Windscreen wiper fluid level
too lowTop up the windscreen wiper
reservoir as soon as possible
⇒ page 124.
Several warning and control lamps should light up for a few seconds when
the ignition is switched on, signalling that the function is being verified.
They will switch off after a few seconds.
CAUTION
Failure to heed the control lamps and text messages when they appear may
result in faults in the vehicle.

Windscreen wiper functions
Windscreen wiper performance in different situations:If the vehicle is at a stand-
still:The activated position provisionally changes
to the previous position.
During the automatic wipe:
The air conditioner comes on for approxi-
mately 30 seconds in air recirculation mode
to prevent the smell of the windscreen wash-
er fluid entering the inside the vehicle.
For the interval wipe:The intervals between wipes vary according
to the speed of the vehicle. The higher the
vehicle speed the shorter the intervals.
Heated windscreen washer jets
The heating only thaws the frozen jets, it does not thaw the water in the
washer hoses. The heated windscreen washer jets automatically adjust the
heat depending on the ambient temperature, when the ignition is switched
on.
Headlight wash/wipe system
The headlight washers/wipers clean the headlight lenses.
After the ignition is switched on, the first and every fifth time the wind-
screen washer is switched on, the headlights are also washed. Therefore,
the windscreen wiper lever should be pulled towards the steering wheel
when the dipped beam or main beam are on. Any incrusted dirt (such as in-
sects) should be cleaned regularly (e.g. when refuelling).
To ensure the headlight washers work correctly in winter, any snow which
has got into the bumper jet supports should be cleaned away. If necessary,
remove snow with an anti-icing spray.
Note
The wiper will try to wipe away any obstacles that are on the windscreen.
The wiper will stop moving if the obstacle blocks its path. Remove the ob-
stacle and switch the wiper back on again.
Windscreen wipers service position
Fig. 71 Wipers in service
position
The wiper arms can be raised when the wipers are in service position
⇒ Fig. 71. To place the windscreen wipers in the service position, proceed
as follows:
● The bonnet must be closed ⇒ page 251.
● Switch the ignition on and off.
● Press the windscreen wiper lever downwards briefly ⇒ Fig. 70 4
.
Before driving, always lower the wiper arms. Using the windscreen wiper
lever, the windscreen wiper arms return to their initial position.

be adjusted manually. Manual wipe ⇒ page 121
Move the lever to the required position ⇒ Fig. 72:
Rain sensor off.
Rain sensor on; automatic wipe if necessary.
Setting sensitivity level of rain sensor
– Set control to the right: highly sensitive.
– Set control to the left: less sensitive.
When the ignition is switched off and then back on, the rain sensor stays on
and starts operating again when the windscreen wipers are in position 1
and the vehicle is travelling at more than 16 km/h (10 mph).
