●
Keep h and
s, fingers, feet and other limbs
away from the range of the rear seat backr-
ests when folding and lifting them.
● All seat backrests must engage correctly for
the seat belt
s on the rear seats to work prop-
erly. When the backrest of an occupied seat is
not correctly locked in place, the passenger
can be thrust forward with the rear seat back-
rest in case of sudden braking, sudden ma-
noeuvres or an accident.
● A red signal on the button B warns that
the bac k

rest is not engaged. Always check to
make sure that the red mark is not visible
when the backrest of the rear seat is in the
upright position.
● No seat must be occupied if the backrest of
the rear se
at is folded or not correctly engag-
ed. CAUTION
Before folding the rear seat backrest, adjust
the front se

ats so that neither the head re-
straint or backrest hit them when folded. If
necessary, remove the head restraints

Unsecured or incorrectly secured objects or
anima l

s on the rear shelf could cause serious
injuries in case of a sudden manoeuvre, sud-
den braking or an accident.
● Do not leave hard, heavy or sharp objects
(loose or in bag
s) on the rear shelf. ●
Never tr an

sport animals on the rear shelf.
● Never drive with the rear shelf raised. Al-
way
s lower it or remove it before the journey. CAUTION
To prevent the rear shelf from being dam-
ag ed:
● Alw

ays check that the side supports are
firmly en
gaged.
● Regulate the height of the load in the lug-
gage c
ompartment to ensure the rear shelf
does not press down on the load with the rear
lid closed. 125

Advice
●
All
repairs and modifications to the vehicle
should only be performed by a specialised
workshop. Repairs and malfunctions in the air-
bag sy
s

tem When performing repairs and technical mod-
ification
s,

SEAT's directives must be ob-
served! ››› Modifications and repairs to the front bump-
er
, door
s, fr

ont seats, and repairs to the roof
or chassis should only be carried out in a
specialised workshop. These components
may contain parts or sensors belonging to
the airbag system.
If work is carried out on the airbag system or
parts have to be removed and fitted on the
system when performing other repair work,
parts of the airbag system may be damaged.
The consequence may be that, in the event of
an accident, the airbag inflates incorrectly or
does not inflate at all.
So that the effectiveness of the airbag is not
reduced and that removed parts do not cause
any injuries or environmental pollution, regu-
lations must be observed. These require-
ments are known to specialised workshops.
Modifications to the vehicle suspension may
affect the operation of the airbag system in
the event of collision. For example, if wheel and tyre combinations not approved by SEAT
are used, or if

the vehicle height is lowered,
the suspension is stiffened or the suspension
springs, telescopic arms, dampers, etc., are
modified, the results received by the airbag
sensors and sent to the control unit may not
be accurate. For example, some modifica-
tions to the suspension could increase the
force measured by the sensors and result in
the triggering of the airbag systems in colli-
sions. Under normal conditions, the meas-
ured values would be lower and the airbag
would not have been triggered. Other modifi-
cations may reduce the forces measured by
the sensors and prevent the airbags from be-
ing triggered when they should. WARNING
Repairs or modifications which are not per-
formed c orr

ectly may result in damage or er-
rors in the vehicle operation, affecting the ef-
fectiveness of the airbag systems. This could
result in serious or fatal accidents.
● All repairs and modifications to the vehicle
should on
ly be performed by a specialised
workshop.
● Airbag modules must never be repaired: if
damag
ed, they must be replaced.
● Never fit recycled or reused airbag compo-
nents in
your vehicle. WARNING
Modifications to the vehicle suspension, in-
cludin g the u

se of unauthorised wheel and
tyre combinations, may affect the perform-
ance of the airbags and increase the risk of
serious or fatal injury in the event of acci-
dent.
● Never fit suspension components which are
not identica
l to the original parts in the vehi-
cle.
● Never use wheel and tyre combinations not
appro
ved by SEAT. Retrofitting of mobile phones
An exterior aerial is required for the use of
tw
o-w
a

y radios in the vehicle.
The retro-fitting of electrical or electronic ap-
pliances in the vehicle is subject to their ap-
proval for use in your vehicle. Under certain
circumstances, this could mean that your ve-
hicle registration documents are no longer
valid.
SEAT has approved your vehicle for use with
two-way radios providing the following condi-
tions are observed:
● The exterior aerial must be mounted pro-
fes
sionally.
● The maximum transmitting power is 10
watts.
