Central locking system
General notes
All of the doors will unlock or lock at the same time when the central locking
system is used. The rear lid is unlocked. It is then possible to open the rear
lid by pressing the release catch located at the top of the registration plate
recess ⇒ page 90.
Warning lamp on the driver door
Once the doors are locked, the warning lamp will flash quickly for 2 seconds
and then at a slower rate.

lamp on the driver door will flash quickly for 2 seconds before switching off
for 30 seconds and then flashing at a slower rate.
If the warning lamp flashes quickly for 2 seconds and then remains switch-
ed on before flashing at a slower rate after 30 seconds, there is a fault in
the interior monitor and tow-away protection system ⇒ page 89. Seek pro-
fessional help.
Individual settings
Unlocking single doors
This optional function unlocks the driver door only. The other doors remain
locked and are only unlocked when the next command is given (unlock).
Automatic unlock and lock
The doors and the rear lid are locked automatically when the vehicle rea-
ches a speed of about 15 km/h (9 mph). The doors unlock automatically when the key is removed from the ignition.
Additionally, the driver or front passenger can unlock the doors by pressing
the ⇒
page 85 central lock button or by pulling the front door handle.
WARNING
Locking the doors prevents intruders from getting into the car, e.g. while
waiting at junctions. However, it can also delay assistance in the event of
an accident. Risk of death!
Note
● Activation of the single door setting can be requested at your SEAT deal-
er.
● In the event of an accident in which the airbags activate, the doors will
be automatically unlocked for easier access and assistance.
● If the central locking system should fail to work at any time, only the
driver door can be locked or unlocked using the key ⇒ page 85. All other
doors and the rear lid can be operated manually.
–Manual release ⇒ page 86.
– Manual release of the rear lid ⇒ page 91.
Safe Lock
The central locking system is equipped with a Safe lock. If the vehicle is
closed from outside, the door locks will automatically lock. The warning
lamp on the driver door will flash quickly for 2 seconds and then at a slower
rate. It is not possible to open any of the doors from the inside or outside
using the handle. This limits the possibility of intruders getting into the ve-
hicle.
The Safe lock can be deactivated by pressing the lock button twice in less
than 2 seconds.

fatal consequences. Close and lock both the rear lid and all the other
doors when you are not using the vehicle.
● 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
