•Release the switch and then lift it again for one second. This will re-enable
the automatic function.Sliding/tilting sunroof*DescriptionThe sliding/tilting sunroof is operated using the rotary knob ⇒fig. 81 . The
rotary knob for sliding the roof open can be adjusted to several different
settings (with click stops). This knob only works when the ignition is switched
on. The rotary knob must be in the position if you want to tilt the roof up
at the rear.
The sunroof will work for about ten minutes after the ignition has been
switched off. However, it is immediately disabled when one of the front doors
is opened.
Opening/Tilting
The sunroof will create less wind noise if it is opened in the
convenience position.Convenience position

sunroof will now only open as far as the convenience position
which means there is less wind noise.
Opening completely
– Turn the switch to position and hold it until the sunroof reaches the desired position. This position can cause more wind
noise.
Tilting open

WARNING
The ski bag must be secured in place with the fastening belt after it has
been loaded.
Note
Do not fold away the ski bag after use if it is still damp.Roof rackDescription
Additional luggage can be carried on the roof rack.Note the following points if you intend to carry loads on the roof:•There are aerodynamic drainage channels on the roof of the vehicle and,
therefore, normal roof racks cannot be used. We recommend using the basic
support units from the range of genuine SEAT accessories.•These basic supports are the base of a complete roof rack system. For
safety reasons, however, the corresponding additional fastenings must be
fitted to carry luggage, bicycles, surfboards, skis and boats. All the parts of
this system are available from SEAT Authorised Services.Caution
Any damage to the vehicle caused by the use of other types of roof rack or
incorrect installation will not be covered by the factory warranty. The roof rack
system must therefore be installed exactly according to the instructions
provided.
Attachment points
The roof rack must be attached at the marked points only.Installation
The feet of the support units must be fitted exactly between the points
marked with arrows on the roof sealing strip ⇒fig. 119 . The arrows are only
visible with the doors open.Roof load
Loads carried on the roof must be securely attached. The
vehicle’s handling is affected whenever you carry loads on
the vehicle.The authorised load on the roof of your vehicle is 75 kg. Use the weight of the
roof rack system and that of the load as a basis to calculate the roof load.

Technical Specifications
If less resistant systems are used, the roof rack must not be loaded to the
maximum weight permitted. If less resistant systems are used, these must
only be loaded to the maximum weight permitted indicated in the assembly
instructions.
WARNING
•Loads carried on the roof must be securely attached. Failure to do so
could result in an accident.•Do not exceed the maximum roof load for the vehicle, the maximum
axle loads or the maximum gross vehicle weight. Failure to do so could
result in an accident.•When transporting heavy or bulky loads on the roof, bear in mind that
the vehicle’s handling is affected by the extra weight on the roof and a
possible susceptibility to cross winds. Adjust your speed and driving style
accordingly to avoid accidents.For the sake of the environment
Roof racks are often left attached for convenience, even when they are not
being used. However, the increased air resistance means that the vehicle
uses more fuel. For this reason you should always take off the roof rack when
it is not in use.

Electrical equipment can also be connected to the 230 volt
socket in the centre console.The 230 Volt socket can only be used when the engine is running
⇒.
In vehicles with folding cover:
– Hold the cover of the socket at the lower recess.
– Lift the cover to open ⇒ fig. 126. Inserting the Europlug
– Insert the Europlug in the socket. The childproof safety device on
the socket is deactivated.
– If necessary, press the Europlug as far as possible into the socket
to ensure it is correctly inserted and will not jump out of place
while driving over a bump or similar.

Equipment which may be connected
The 230 volt socket can be used to connect electrical equipment with a Euro-
plug. Please note that the power consumption in this socket must not exceed
150 watts (peaks of 300 watts).
Even when more than one appliance is connected, the total consumption of
all the appliances must not exceed 150 watts. If necessary, please refer to the
manufacturer’s label to confirm the power consumption of the connected
equipment.
All connected appliances should be in perfect working order without any
faults.
WARNING
•Heavy appliances or connectors (for example, adapters) which hang
down directly from the Europlug socket may damage the socket with the
resultant risk of injury.

152•Ensure that appliances connected to the socket are secure to prevent
them from being thrown around the vehicle in the event of sharp braking or
an accident. This could result in severe injury or loss of life ⇒page 16,
“Storing objects”.•Never spill liquid over the socket – there is a risk of death. If any mois-
ture enters the socket, ensure that it is thoroughly dry before using.•Improper use of the sockets or electrical accessories can lead to serious
injuries or cause a fire, with the resultant risk of injury.•Children must never be left alone in the vehicle with the engine
running. They could cause an accident.•Appliances connected to the socket do not behave in the same way as
when they are connected to the mains power supply. They may overheat
during use and cause injury.•When using adapters and extension leads, the childproof safety device
on the 230 volt socket is disconnected and the socket is live. Risk of injury!.•Never insert objects which conduct electricity, such as a needle, in the
pins of the 230 volt socket. There is a risk of death.•Always switch off electrical appliances connected to the socket if the
inverter goes off as a result of overheating. Failure to comply could result
in injuries.Caution
•The instructions for handling appliances connected to the socket must be
observed.•If the power consumption of the appliances connected exceeds 150
watts, the socket inverter will overheat. If the temperature exceeds a certain
value, the inverter will switch off. It may also switch off if the outside temper-
ature is very high, even if the power consumption is normal. The inverter will
switch on again automatically after it has cooled down. Appliances connected to the socket, and which have been left switched on, will automat-
ically come back on
⇒.
•Do not connect neon lamps to the socket. For technical reasons, these
could break down.•Do not connect 115 volt appliances to the 230 volt power socket, as they
could be damaged. If you have any queries, please check the manufacturer’s
label for details of the power supply accepted by the appliance.•With some adapters, for example for laptops, their built-in overload
disconnection system prevents the equipment from switching on in the event
of an excessive star t-up current. In this case, disconnect the adapter from the
power supply and try to reconnect after ten seconds.Note
•Non-insulated equipment may cause interference to the radio or vehicle
electronics.•The Europlug socket has a built-in childproof device and only carries live
current when the Europlug is correctly plugged in.•Some appliances may not operate correctly in the absence of adequate
power (watts).•In some countries this socket is 115 volts. Therefore the socket should
have a different inverter installed at the factory. You can obtain retrofit kits
from your Authorised Technical Service. Do not connect 115 Volt appliances
to the 230 Volt socket.•The use of electrical equipment in the vicinity of the aerial in the rear
window may cause interference to the reception of stations broadcasting in
AM.
