WARNING
● Always keep your attention on driving! As the driver, you have the full
responsibility for the safety of traffic.
● Never use the instrument panel controls when the vehicle is in mo-
tion. Do so only when the vehicle is stopped!
Rev counter
The red part of the rev counter scale 1 ⇒ Fig. 31 ⇒
page 57 marks the zone
where the engine control unit begins to limit the engine speed. The engine
control unit is responsible for reducing the revs to a safe limit.
Before the needle reaches the red zone change up into a higher gear, or
move the selector lever of the automatic gearbox to D.
In order to drive at an optimum RPM, respect the gear change indications
⇒ page 60.

In vehicles equipped with an informative display the service interval display
can be reset from the menu, Settings ⇒ page 67.
CAUTION
We advise against resetting the service interval display yourself, given that
this action could cause an imbalance in the service intervals, and as a re-
sult, faults in the vehicle.
Note
● Never reset the display between service intervals as this could lead to
erroneous indications.
● After disconnecting the battery of the vehicle, the service interval dis-
play values remain stored.
● If the general instrument panel is changed after a repair, the correct val-
ues must be input in the service interval display. This operation is carried
out by a specialised service.
● After resetting the display with flexible service intervals, the information
will be indicated in the same way as vehicles with fixed service intervals.
Therefore, we recommend that a SEAT Authorised Service resets the service
interval display, who will do so correctly using diagnostics equipment.
● For more detailed information please consult the Maintenance Pro-
gramme.
Digital clock
The clock is set using the buttons 5 to 6
⇒ Fig. 31
⇒ page 57.
Select the indication you want to change with button 5
and make the ad-
justment with button 6.
In vehicles equipped with an informative display this can be reset from the
menu, Time ⇒ page 67. Recommended gear display
Fig. 32 Recommended
gear display
The general instrument panel display indicates the engaged gear A
⇒ Fig. 32.
In order to optimally reduce the fuel consumption, the recommended gear is
displayed on the screen.
If the control unit analysis decides that a gear change is required, an arrow
appears on the display A
. This arrow can point up or down indicating
whether a lower or higher gear is recommended.
Simultaneously, the gear currently engaged is indicated B
in the place of
the recommended gear.
CAUTION
However, the driver is always responsible for choosing the appropriate gear
for each situation, (i.e. when overtaking).

WARNING
● Failure to observe control lamps and warning messages can result in
serious personal injuries or damage to your vehicle.
● The engine compartment is a dangerous area. Carrying out work in
the engine compartment, i.e. checking and filling service liquids, can
lead to injury, scalding, burns and fires. Therefore the corresponding
warnings must always be observed ⇒ page 182, Engine compartment.
Handbrake
If the warning lamp lights up, the handbrake is applied. Additionally,
driving the vehicle at speeds exceeding 6 km/h (4 mph) for at least 3 sec-
onds produces an audible warning.
The informative display indicates:
Release the handbrake!

82Communication
The MDI input is composed of the USB and AUX-IN inputs.
The purpose of the MDI input is to connect external devices (i.e. iPod ®
, mp3
players or USB memories) in order to play music using the audio system or
the navigation system.
In order to connect Apple multimedia devices (such as an iPod ®
/iPhone ®
…)
the corresponding adaptor from the SEAT Original Accessories catalogue is
required.
Voice control
Fig. 41 Multifunction
steering wheel: Voice
control
The time during which the system is ready to receive and execute voice com-
mands is called dialogue. The system gives off acoustic warnings and if
necessary will take you through the respective functions.
The Help menu should be used the first time the voice system is used to be-
come more familiar with the way it works. For voice commands to work optimally, certain factors must be taken into
account:
●
Speak slowly and clearly, as far as possible. The system will not recog-
nise words pronounced unclearly, or words and figures in which syllables
are omitted.
● Speak at a normal volume, without exaggerated intonation or long pau-
ses.
● Close doors, windows and sunroof to dampen and eliminate annoying
noises from outside. Do not turn the air outlets towards the roof.
● When driving at high speed you should speak louder.
● Keep accidental noise in the vehicle during the dialogue to a minimum,
e.g. passengers talking at the same time.
● Do not talk while the system is providing information.
The voice-control microphone is located in the roof trim and faces the driver
and front passenger. This is why the driver and front passenger should use
the device.
Enter the telephone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous row of digits memo-
rised in succession (the whole number at once) or as blocks of digits (sepa-
rated by brief pauses). After each series of digits (separated by a brief
pause) the digits recognised until then are repeated.
Digits 0 - 9 and the symbols +, , # are allowed. The system does not rec-
ognise coherent numeric combinations such as twenty-three.
Voice control activation
Press the 1
⇒ Fig. 41 button briefly on the multi-function steering
wheel.
Voice control deactivation
If the system is giving a message it should be stopped by pressing the
1
⇒ Fig. 41 button briefly on the multi-function steering wheel.

Keys
General notes
Fig. 42 Key with remote control/Key without remote control Two keys are always supplied with the vehicle. Depending on the model ver-
sion, your car may include keys without remote control ⇒ Fig. 42 or with
remote control ⇒ Fig. 42 .
WARNING
● Never leave the key inside whenever you leave the vehicle - even if
only for a moment. This is particularly important if children are to remain
in the vehicle. They might start the engine or some other electrical com-
ponent, e.g. electric windows. Risk of injury!
● Wait until the vehicle has completely stopped before taking the key
out of the ignition. Otherwise the steering wheel may lock suddenly. Risk
of accident!
CAUTION
● Each key contains electronic components and must, therefore, be pro-
tected from damp and strong vibrations.
● Keep the grooves in the key shaft clean. Any dirt (fibre from clothing,
dust, etc.) has a negative impact on locks, ignition, etc.
Note
Should a key be lost, request a duplicate key from an Authorised SEAT deal-
er.

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 93.
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.
If the vehicle is locked with the Safe lock engaged ⇒ page 86, the warning
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 92. 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 88 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 88. All other
doors and the rear lid can be operated manually.
–Manual release ⇒ page 89.
– Manual release of the rear lid ⇒ page 94.
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.
