46Child safety
WARNING
● Never install a child seat facing backwards on the front passenger
seat unless the front passenger front airbag has been disabled. This
could lead to a risk of potentially fatal injuries to the child! However, if it
is necessary, in exceptional cases, to transport a child in the front pas-
senger seat, the front passenger front airbag must always be disabled
⇒ page 43. If the passenger seat has a height adjustment option, move it
to the highest position.
● For those vehicles that do not include a key lock switch to disable the
airbag, the vehicle must be taken to a Technical Service.
● All vehicle occupants, especially children, must assume the proper
sitting position and be properly belted in while travelling.
● Never hold children or babies on your lap, this can result in potential-
ly fatal injuries to the child!
● Never allow a child to be transported in a vehicle without being prop-
erly secured, or to stand up or kneel on a seat while travelling. In an acci-
dent, the child could be thrown through the vehicle, causing possibly fa-
tal injuries to themselves and to the other vehicle occupants.
● If children assume an improper sitting position when the vehicle is
moving, they expose themselves to greater risk of injury in the event of a
sudden braking manoeuvre or in an accident. This is particularly impor-
tant if the child is travelling on the front passenger seat and the airbag
system is triggered in an accident; as this could cause serious injury or
even death.
● A suitable child seat can protect your child.
● Never leave an unsupervised child alone on a child seat or in the vehi-
cle.
● Depending on weather conditions, it may become extremely hot or
cold inside the vehicle. This can be fatal.WARNING (Continued)
● Children who are less than 1.5 metres tall must not wear a normal
seat belt without a child seat, as this could cause injuries to the abdomi-
nal and neck areas during a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an accident.
● Do not allow the seat belt to become twisted or jammed, or to rub on
any sharp edges.
● Incorrectly worn seat belts can cause injuries even in a minor colli-
sion or in sudden braking manoeuvres.
● The seat belt provides maximum protection only when the seat belt is
properly positioned ⇒ page 26, Seat belts.
● Only one child may occupy a child seat ⇒ page 47, Child seats.

Seats and storage Front seats
Introduction
Set the driver seat in such a way that the pedals can be fully depressed with
your legs slightly bent.
Set the driver seat backrest in such a way that the upper point of the steer-
ing wheel can be reached with your arms slightly bent.
The correct seat position is very important for:
● Reaching all of the controls safely and quickly
● A relaxed low-fatigue posture
● maximum protection from the seat belts and airbag system
WARNING
● Adjust the driver seat only when the vehicle is stationary. Risk of ac-
cident!
● Be careful when adjusting the front seats! Careless and uncontrolled
adjustment can cause injuries.
● The backrests must not be reclined too far back while driving. This
could limit the effect of the seat belts and the airbag system. Risk of in-
jury!
● Never transport more that the permitted amount of people in your ve-
hicle.
WARNING (Continued)
● Every occupant in the vehicle must properly fasten and wear the seat
belt belonging to his or her seat. Children must be protected with an ap-
propriate child restraint system ⇒ page 45, Child safety.
● The front seats, head restraints and seat belts must always be adjus-
ted to the size of the vehicle occupant to provide you and your passen-
gers with the greatest possible protection.
● Your feet should remain in the footwell while the vehicle is moving;
never rest them on the dash panel, on the window or on the seat! This
also applies to passengers. An incorrect sitting position exposes you to
an increased risk of injury in case of a sudden braking or an accident. If
the airbag is triggered, you could sustain severe injuries due to an incor-
rect sitting position!
● It is important for the driver and front passenger to keep a distance of
at least 25 cm from the steering wheel and dash panel. Failure to respect
the minimum distance means that the airbag will not protect you. Risk of
fatal injury if triggered!
● No items must not be kept in the footwell, as they could block the
pedals in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or change of direc-
tion. You would no longer be able to brake, change gear or accelerate.
● Do not place any items on the front passenger seat other than those
allowed (e.g. child seat). Risk of accident!
Note
After a certain time, the backrest angle adjustment mechanism may gain a
certain amount of play. 

196Accessories, modifications and spare parts
Modifications and effects of the airbag
system
In the adjustment and modification, respect the SEAT directive.
Modifications and corrections of the front bumper, doors, front seats, roof
or bodywork must be carried out at authorised SEAT workshops. Compo-
nents of the airbag system can be found in these parts of the vehicle.
WARNING
● Airbag modules must never be repaired. They must be replaced.
● Never fit components of the airbag system removed from old vehicles
or those originating from a recycling process in the vehicle.
● The modification of the suspension of the vehicle wheels, including
the use of non-permitted combinations of tyres and rims can alter the op-
eration of the airbag system and increase the risk of serious or fatal inju-
ries in an accident.
● During all jobs on the airbag system, in addition to the removal and
fitting of parts of the system in the course of other repair jobs, parts of
the airbag system can be damaged. Therefore in the event of an accident,
this may cause the airbags to activate incorrectly or not activate al all.
