WARNING
If the vehicle has to be stopped for technical reasons, park it a safe dis-
tance away from moving traffic, switch off the engine and turn on the
hazard warning lights ⇒ page 101.
Coolant level and temperature
If the warning lamp (blue) is lit up, the engine has not yet reached its op-
erating temperature 1)
. Avoid high engine speeds, hard acceleration and
submitting the engine to high loads.
If the warning lamp (red) is lit up or flashing, the coolant temperature is
too high or its level is too low.
The informative display indicates:
Check coolant! Instruction Manual!
Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine, check the coolant level ⇒ page 188
and refill if necessary ⇒ page 188.
If the coolant is situated in the prescribed area, the high temperature may
be due to a fault in the cooling system fan. Check the radiator fan fuse and
replace it if necessary ⇒ page 221, Changing fuses in the engine compart-
ment.
If the warning lamp (red) remains lit up, despite both the coolant level
and the radiator fan fuse being in correct condition, stop the vehicle!
Seek professional help.
WARNING
● If the vehicle has to be stopped for technical reasons, park it a safe
distance away from moving traffic, switch off the engine and turn on the
hazard warning lights ⇒ page 101.
● Take care when opening the coolant reservoir. When the engine is
warm or hot, the system is pressurised – Danger of burns! Wait for the
engine to cool before opening the cover.
● Do not touch the fan. The fan can switch on automatically regardless
of whether the ignition is switched on.
Power steering
If the warning lamp, is lit up there is a fault in the power steering.
The power steering system functions with reduced power steering effect.
Seek professional help.
Stability Control (ESC)
If the control lamp flashes, the ESC is working.
If the warning lamp lights up on ignition the ESC system may have
switched off due to technical reasons. Turn off the ignition and turn it on
again. Upon switching on the ignition again, if the warning lamp has switch-
ed off, this means the ESC is functioning correctly again.
If the warning lamp, is lit up there is a fault in the ESC.
1)
This does not apply to vehicles equipped with an informative display.

Controls and displays
Diesel particulate filter. Instruction Manual!
The engine control unit allows driving to continue in an emergency program.
When switching the ignition off and on again, the warning lamp also
lights up.
Seek professional help.
WARNING
● The particulate filter attains very high temperatures. Therefore, do
not park the vehicle in places where the exhaust pipe could come into
contact with dry grass or with highly-flammable materials. Risk of fire!
● Always adjust your speed to suit the weather, road, terrain and traffic
conditions. Never be encouraged, by the recommendations shown in the
warning lamps, to fail to respect traffic legislation.
CAUTION
While the warning lamp is lit up, the fuel consumption is high, and in
certain conditions, the engine power is reduced.
Note
● In order for the particulate filter to burn off soot in a correct manner,
avoid carrying out frequent short journeys.
● Using diesel fuel with a high sulphur count can considerably reduce the
useful life of the particulate filter. The specialised service provides informa-
tion about the countries where fuel with a high sulphur content is used.
Fuel reserve
The warning lamp lights up when approximately only 7 litres of fuel re-
main in the tank. The informative display indicates:
Refuel! Fuel range…km...(miles)
Note
The message on the display switches off only after refuelling and carrying
out a short journey.
Airbag system
If the warning lamp is lit up, there is a fault in the airbag system.
The informative display indicates: Airbag fault!
The airbag system availability is controlled electronically, regardless of
whether an airbag is disabled.
If the front airbag, side airbag, head protection airbag or the belt tensioner
are disabled using the diagnostics system:
● After switching on the ignition, the warning lamp lights up for around
4 seconds and flashes for another 12 seconds.
The informative display indicates:
Airbag/belt tensioner disabled!

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.

General notes
The remote control key can
● Lock and unlock the vehicle
● Unlock or open the rear lid
The remote control transmitter and the batteries are integrated in the key.
The receiver is inside the vehicle. The remote control key has a maximum
range of 30 metres. The range is reduced as the batteries start to lose pow-
er.
The key includes a foldaway part that can be used to manually lock or un-
lock the vehicle and to start the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or the receiver is repaired or changed, the remove
control key must be adapted by an authorised SEAT dealer. Only then can
the remote control key be used again.
Note
● The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is
switched on.
● The remote control function may be temporarily limited by interference
from other transmitters near the vehicle that operate on the same frequency
(e.g. mobile phone, television transmitter).
● If the central locking system or the anti-theft alarm only responds to the
remote control at a distance of less than 3 m, then the battery much be re-
placed ⇒ page 84.
● If the driver door is open, the vehicle can not be locked using the remote
control.

Opening and closing electric windows Introduction
WARNING
● When locking the vehicle from the outside, make sure that nobody is
inside the vehicle, as the windows cannot be opened from the inside in
an emergency.
● For safety reasons, use the safety button S
⇒ Fig. 53 that deacti-
vates the window switches in the rear doors when children are travelling
in the rear seats.
CAUTION
● Keep the windows clean to ensure the system operates correctly.
● Defrost ⇒ page 175, Windows and exterior mirrors any frozen windows
before use. Risk of damaging the electric window riser mechanism.
● Always make sure all of the windows are closed on leaving the locked
vehicle.
Note
● The vehicle heating and ventilation system should be used to ventilate
the interior while driving. Leaving the windows open could allow dust and
other dirt to enter the vehicle and cause unpleasant noises at certain
speeds.
● Do not leave the side windows open at high speeds, as this will overly
increase fuel consumption.

Roll-back function on the electric windows
The electric windows are equipped with a roll-back system that reduces risk
of injury when closing windows.
If an obstacle is present, the closing mechanism will stop and the window
will roll back a few centimetres.
If an obstacle prevents closing for the next 10 seconds, the closing mecha-
nism will once again stop and the window will roll back another few centi-
metres.
If in the next 10 seconds you attempt to close the window after it has rolled
back the second time, only the closing mechanism will be stopped even if
the obstacle is still present. The roll-back function is still connected.
The roll-back function will only be disconnected if you once again attempt to
close the window in the following 10 seconds. In this case, the window will
close at full force
.
If you wait for a further 10 seconds, the roll-back function will be once again
connected.

Lights Introduction
The location of the controls of right-hand drive cars differs slightly from the
location shown here ⇒ Fig. 54 ⇒ page 97. However, the symbols indicat-
ing the respective positions of the controls remain the same.
WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to illuminate the road ahead and to ensure that other road users
are able to see you. Always use your dipped beam headlights if it is dark
or if visibility is poor.
CAUTION
● Use the lights in line with local law.
● However, drivers always remain responsible for correctly adjusting and
using the lights.
Note
● An audible warning will be heard when the light control is set to and
you remove the ignition key and open the door. Once the driver door is
closed (ignition off), the audible warning will stop, whereas the side lights
will remain on to light up the stationary vehicle if necessary.
● Depending on weather conditions (cold or wet), the lights may mist up
temporarily on the inside. This is particularly the case in the event of a dif-
ference in temperature between the inside and in front of the light. By
switching on the lights, the area through which the beam of light is projec- ted will quickly be demisted, although the edges may remain misted. The
real lights and turn signals can mist up. This has no influence on the useful
life of the lighting system.
