2008 Seat Ibiza SC phone

Unlocking and locking
80The interior monitor and the anti-towing alarm are automatically switched on
again next time the vehicle is locked.
The interior monitor and anti-towing alarm (tilt sensor) are automatically
switched on when the anti-theft alarm is switched on. In order to activate it,
all the doors and the tailgate must be closed.
If you wish to disconnect the interior monitor and the anti-towing system, it
must be done each time that the vehicle is locked; if not, they will connect
automatically.
The interior monitor and the anti-towing system should be disconnected if
animals are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise, their movements will
trigger the alarm) or when, for example, the vehicle is transported or has to
be towed with only one axle on the ground.
False alarms
The interior monitor only operates co rrectly if the vehicle is completely
closed. Please observe legal requirements when doing so.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:•
opened windows (partially or fully)
•
panoramic glass roof/sunblind open (partially or completely).
•
movement of objects inside the vehicle, such as loose papers, items
hanging from the rear view mirror (air fresheners), etc.Note
•
If the vehicle is relocked and the al arm is activated without the volumetric
sensor function, relocking will activate the alarm with all its functions, except
the volumetric sensor. This function is reactivated when the alarm is switched
on again, unless it is deliberately switched off.
•
If the alarm has been triggered by the volumetric sensor, this will be indi-
cated by a flashing of the indicator on the driver's door. The flash is different
to the flash indicating the alarm is activated.
•
The vibration of a mobile phone left inside the vehicle may cause the inte-
rior monitor alarm to trigger, as both sensors react to movements and shakes
inside the vehicle.
•
If on activating the alarm, any door or the tailgate is open, only the alarm
will be activated. The inte rior monitor and the anti-towing system will only be
activated once all the doors are closed (including the tailgate).

Accessories, parts replacement and modificationsAccessories and spare partsAlways consult an Authorised Service Centre before
purchasing accessories and parts.Your vehicle is designed to offer a high standard of active and passive safety.
Before purchasing accessories and parts, and before making technical
changes to your car, we recommend you to consult your Authorised Service
Centre.
SEAT dealerships will be happy to provide you with the latest information
about the use, legal requirements and recommendations from the manufac-
turer regarding accessories and parts.
We recommend you to use only SEAT Approved Accessories
® and SEAT
Approved Spare Parts
®. This way, SEAT can guarantee that the product in
question is suitable, reliable and safe. SEAT Authorised Service Centres have
the necessary experience and facilities to ensure that parts are correctly and
professionally installed.
Despite a continuous observation of the market, SEAT is not able to assess
the reliability, safety and suitability of those parts SEAT has not approved. For
this reason, SEAT cannot assume resp onsibility for any non-genuine parts
used, even if these parts have been approved by an official testing agency or
are covered by an official approval certificate.
Any equipment subsequently installed which has a direct effect on the
vehicle and/or the way it is driven (e.g. cruise control system or electronically-
controlled suspension) must be approved by SEAT and bear the e mark (the
European Union's authorisation symbol).
If any additional electrical components are fitted so that they do not serve to
control the vehicle itself (for instance a refrigerator box, laptop or ventilator fan, etc.), then they must bear the
CE mark (European Union manufacturer
conformity declaration).
WARNING
Accessories, for example telephone holders or drink holders, should never
be fitted on the covers of, or within the working range of the airbags. Other-
wise, there is a danger of injury if the airbag is triggered in an accident.Technical modificationsModifications must always be carried out according to our
specifications.Unauthorised modifications to the electr onic components or software in the
vehicle may cause malfunctions. Due to the way the electronic components
are linked together in networks, other indirect systems may be affected by the
faults. This can seriously impair safety, lead to excessive wear of compo-
nents, and also invalidate your vehicle registration documents.
SEAT Authorised Service Centres cannot be held liable for any damage
caused by modifications and/or work incorrectly performed.
For this reason, we recommend you that all work should be performed by an
Authorised Service Centre using genuine and SEAT
® approved parts and
accessories .

WARNING
Incorrectly performed modifications or other kind of work on your vehicle
can lead to malfunctions and cause accidents.Roof aerial*The vehicle can be fitted with a collapsible roof aerial* with antitheft system*,
which can be folded backwards, when, for example, going through an auto-
matic carwash.
To fold
Unscrew the aerial rod, tilting it backwards into a horizontal position and then
screw in again.
To return to working position
Continue in the reverse order to the previous instruction.
Caution
Before putting the vehicle through the car washing tunnel, do not tighten the
aerial if it is folded because it can be damaged.Mobile telephones and two-way radiosYou will require an external aerial for mobile phones and two-
way radios. SEAT has approved for your vehicle the use of mobile telephones and two-way
radios providing under the following conditions:
•
The correct installation of an external aerial,
•
transmitting power of maximum 10 watts.
An only external aerial is needed to give the equipment its optimal reach.
First consult your Authorised Service Centre if you wish to use a mobile tele-
phone or a two-way radio with a transmitting power output in excess of
10 watts. Here you will receive information concerning the technical possibil-
ities for retrofitting this equipment.
Mobile telephones and two-way radios should be only fitted by a qualified
workshop, for example an Authorised Service Centre.
WARNING
•
Always concentrate primarily on driving. If you are distracted while
driving you could have an accident.
•
Never attach the telephone mounti ngs to the surfaces covering the
airbag units or within the range of the airbags. There is a high danger of
injury if the airbag is triggered.
•
Using your mobile telephones or two-way radios in the vehicle without
an external aerial, electromagnetic ra diation in the vehicle could exceed
authorised limits. This also may occur to external aerials that have not
been correctly installed.Caution
Failure to consider the above-mentioned conditions could cause the elec-
tronics to malfunction. The most common causes of faults are:•
no external aerial,
•
external aerial incorrectly installed,
•
transmitting power output in excess of 10 watts.
