Garage door remote control*
Introduction
Fixed code or variable code
The garage door remote control uses either a fixed code or a variable code.
For remote controls using a variable code, the system must be synchronised
after programming Ÿpage 110.
Compatibility
SEAT recommends that before buying a remote control or electric system, you
get information from a approved technical service about which products are
compatible with the vehicle remote control.
In some countries, the use of safety controls and electric systems for garage
doors are obligatory.
WARNING
Careless use of the garage remote control can cause serious injury.
xThe garage remote control and electric systems operate with enough
energy to cause injury.
xOnly use the remote control when you can see the garage door and that
there is nobody in its way.
xWhen programming, the garage door or electric system could move
causing damage or injury.
xThe garage remote control and electric systems that do not detect
obstacles do not comply with the legal requirements in certain countries.
Using remote controls and electric systems that do not detect obstacles
increases the risk of injury or death.
xAlways read the assembly instructions and warnings from the manufac-
turer when using a garage door remote control and electric system.

Unlocking and locking 110
Programming the garage door remote control
Functions from up to 3 different remote controls for different products can be
transferred to the buttons on the sunshade ( for example, the electric system
for a gateway or a garage door, a house alarm or a lighting system).Before programming
xBefore programming the garage remote control, always read the instruc-
tion manual from the product manufacturer.
xAlways stop your vehicle safe distance from the system.
xWhen programming, turn on the ignition but do not start the engine.
Before programming the unit for the first time:
xPress the buttons and until the indicator above the button begins
to blink.
xRelease both buttons. This erases the factory settings. There is no need to
do this again to program the remaining buttons.
xHowever, if you hold in the buttons for more time, the factory settings will
be re-established.
Programming
xBefore programming, carry out the initial steps Ÿpage 110.
xPut your system's remote control, for example the remote to operate the
garage door, within 30 cm of the sunshade button Ÿfig. 64. If this is too far
away, you may have to repeat the procedure.
xNow, simultaneously hold in the button on your system's remote control
and the button , or until the indicator above the button blinks, first
slowly then more quickly Ÿfig. 65.
xRelease both buttons. The function from your system's remote control is
transferred to the corresponding button.
To transfer other functions to other buttons of the garage door remote control,
repeat the procedure described above with the button to be programmed.
Synchronising a remote control with a variable code
