The essentials
Driver information system Intr oduction With the ignition switched on, it is possible to
read the diff
er
ent functions of the display by
scrolling through the menus.
In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel,
the multifunction display can only be operat-
ed with the steering wheel buttons.
The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment.
A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gramme or modify additional functions, ac-
cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends visiting a SEAT Official Service.
Some menu options can only be read when
the vehicle is at a standstill.
As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it
will not be possible to read the menus

Lights and visibility
The light is adjusted according to the data re-
cor ded by the light sensor that is inst
all
ed be-
tween the windscreen and the inside rear
view mirror.
The function automatically turns on the side
lights and headlights, the lighting for the en-
try area on the exterior mirrors and the num-
ber plate light.
“Coming Home” function
The light is automatically switched on when
the driver door is opened (for 60 seconds af-
ter the ignition is switched off).
The light is switched off when all the doors
and the rear lid are closed.
If a door or the rear lid remains open, the light
will switch off after 60 seconds.
“Leaving Home” function
The light is automatically switched on when
the vehicle is unlocked using the remote con-
trol.
The light is switched off after 10 seconds or
when the vehicle is locked. Hazard warning lights switch

Driving
With the help of this system, the ABS is activa-
t ed mor
e quickly and mor
e efficiently.
The brake assist function is deactivated auto-
matically when the brake pedal is released.
Hill hold control (HHC)*
The HHC system makes it easier to start the
vehicle on hills. The system maintains the
brake pressure created by pressing down on
the brake pedal for 2 seconds after it has
been released. Your foot can be removed
from the brake pedal and you can use the
accelerator pedal and move away on a hill
without having to use the handbrake. The
brake pressure drops as the accelerator ped-
al is pressed. If the vehicle cannot be started,
it will start to move backwards after 2 sec-
onds.
The HHC is activated on gradients of over 5%,
if the driver door is closed. It only works for
starting on hills, moving both forward and in
reverse. It is not activated during start-up
down hill.
Control lamp
If the control lamp ! flashes, the ESC is working.
If the ! warning lamp illuminates 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 igni-
tion again, if the warning lamp has switched off, this means the ESC is functioning correct-
ly again.
If the !
warning lamp is illuminat
ed there is a
fault in the ESC.
The informative display indicates:
Fault: electronic stability con-
trol (ESC)
or Fault: traction control system
(ASR)
Go to a technical service. Note
If the battery is disconnected and connec-
ted again, the yell o

w warning lamp !
lights up when the ignition is switched on.
This warning lamp must switch off after
covering a short distance. Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
The ABS system prevents the wheels locking
during br
aking. This helps the driv
er k

eep
control of the vehicle.
The driver is made aware of ABS assistance
by the pulsating of the brake pedal and a
characteristic noise.
Keep the brake pedal pressed down while the
ABS is working. The ABS will switch off when the brake pedal is released. Never brake in-
termittently whil

e the ABS is working!
Control lamp
If the  warning lamp is illuminated, there is a fault in the ABS.
The informative display indicates:
ABS fault
The brake system alone is operational in the
vehicle, without ABS.
Go to a technical service. WARNING

Start and driving
If the control lamp ! fl ashes, the ASR is w
ork -
ing.
If the ! warning lamp illuminates on ignition, the TCS system may have switched off due to
technical reasons. Turn off the ignition and
turn it on again. Upon switching on the igni-
tion again, if the warning lamp has switched
off, this means the TCS is functioning correct-
ly again.
If the ! warning lamp remains illuminated,
there is a fault in the TCS.
The informative display indicates:
Fault: traction control system
(ASR)
Go to a technical service.
Electronic differential lock If one of the wheels starts to skid, the EDL
br
ak
es that wheel, tr

ansmitting the driving
force to the other wheels. This increases vehi-
cle stability and improves driving stability.
To prevent the disc brake of the braking
wheel from overheating, the EDL cuts out au-
tomatically if subjected to excessive loads.
The vehicle will continue to function normally
without EDL. The EDL will switch on again au-
tomatically when the brake has cooled down. Manual gearbox

than 2 seconds.
The selector lever only locks when the is vehi-
cle stationary or driving at a speed lower
than 5 km/h (3 mph). At a higher speed, it au-
tomatically disconnects in the N position.
Interlock button
The interlock button on the selector lever
knob prevents the driver from inadvertently
engaging a gear. Press the button to unlock
the selector lever.
Safety interlock for ignition key 1)
After switching the ignition off, the ignition key
can be removed only when the selector lever
is in position P. If the key is not in the ignition,
the selector lever is locked in position P.
Driving programmes Your vehicle is equipped with an electronical-
ly-contr
oll
ed aut

omatic gearbox. Shifting up
or down depends on the programme selec-
ted.
For a calm driving style, the gearbox uses
the most economic programme. The gearbox shifts up as quickly as possible and shifts
down as lat

e as possible, thus increasing driv-
ing economy.
With a sporty driving style, characterised by
sudden acceleration, heavy acceleration,
speeds that often increase and decrease and
maximum speed, the gearbox adapts to this
driving style when the accelerator is pressed
down fully (kick-down) by shifting down as
quickly as possible and can even shift down
by several gears at once.
Selecting the best driving programmes is an
endless job. Regardless of this, the driver can
also make the gearbox switch to a more dy-
namic gear shift programme by pressing the
accelerator quickly. This makes the automat-
ic gearbox shift down into a lower gear than
the one that would normally apply to the cur-
rent speed, allowing for more rapid accelera-
tion (e.g. to overtake another vehicle) without
having to press the accelerator until the kick-
down position. On shifting up in a corre-
sponding driving style, the gearbox returns to
the original programme.
When driving along mountain roads, the
gearbox adapts to the gradients. This avoids
having to frequently change gears when driv-
ing uphill. In Tiptronic mode, it is possible to
shift down manually when driving downhill to
use the braking effect of the engine. Emergency program A back-up programme exists in case of faults.
In the ev
ent of a f

ault in the gearbox electron-
ics, it will continue to work in one of the corre-
sponding back-up programmes. All segments
of the screen are lit up or switched off.
The fault can be seen as follows:

ectro-mechanical power steering adapts
electronically to the speed of the car, torque
and turning angle.
If the power steering should fail at any time or
the engine is switched off (for instance when
being towed), the car can still be steered, as
long as the key remains in the ignition. How-
ever, more effort than normal will be required
to turn the steering wheel. WARNING
If the power steering does not work, you
will need much more str ength t

o turn the
wheel. This has a considerable effect on
vehicle safety.
