Operation
Tyre pressure adjustment
On adjusting tyre pressure or changing one
or more wheels, the ››› Fig. 71 button must be
k ept
pressed down, with the ignition on, until
an acoustic signal is heard.
If the wheels are under excessive load (for ex-
ample, driving with a trailer or heavy load),
the tyre pressure must be increased to the
recommended value for a full load (see the
sticker on the inside of the fuel flap). If the
tyre monitor system button is pressed down,
the new tyre pressures are confirmed.
The tyre pressure control lamp  lights up
If the tyre pressure of a wheel is much lower
than the value set by the driver, then the tyre
pressure control lamp ››› will light up.
WARNING
● When the tyre pressure control lamp lights
up, reduce speed immediately and avoid any
sudden turning or braking manoeuvre. Stop
when possible, and check the tyre pressure
and status.
● The driver is responsible for maintaining
correct tyre pressures. For this reason, tyre
pressure must be regularly checked.
● Under certain circumstances (e.g. when
driving in a sporty manner, in winter condi-
tions or on a dirt track) the tyre control lamp
may light up belatedly or may function incor-
rectly. Note
If the battery is disconnected, the yellow
warning lamp  lights up after turning the
ignition on.
This should turn off after a brief
journey. Speed selector lever lock* 
The brake pedal must be depressed when
this warning lamp lights up. This is necessary
when the automatic gearbox* selector lever
is moved out of the positions
P
or N
.
Fuel level/reserve  It lights up when only 7 litres of fuel remain
in the tank, and an
acoustic signal*
al
so
sou

nds. It reminds you to fuel up the fuel
tank as soon as possible ›››
page 163.
Door open display*  This warning lamp lights up if one of the
doors is open.
The warning light
 should go off when all
the doors are closed correctly. Rear lid open*  The warning lamp 
should switch off when
the r

ear lid is fully closed.
Main beam headlights  The warning lamp  lights up when the main
beams are on or when the headlight flasher
is operated.
For further information see
››› page 93.
Electro-hydraulic steering*  The level of steering assistance depends on
the vehicle speed and on the steering wheel
turning speed.
The warning lamp should light up for a few
seconds when the ignition is switched on. It
should go out once the engine is started.
There is a fault in the electro-hydraulic steer-
ing system if the lamp does not go out or
lights up whilst the vehicle is in motion. Take
the vehicle to technical services as soon as
possible.

Operation
If any of both turn signals fails, the warning
lamp will start flashing twice faster than nor-
mal.
For further information on the turn signals,
please see ››› page 93.
“SAFE” Electronic immobiliser* This warning lamp flashes if an unauthorised
key is used.
Inside the key there is a chip that deactivates
the electronic immobiliser automatically
when the key is inserted into the ignition.
The electronic immobiliser will be activated
again automatically as soon as you pull the
key out of the ignition lock.
If the following message* is shown on the in-
strument panel display:
SAFE
, the vehicle
c annot

The engine can, however, be started if the
appropriate coded SEAT genuine key is used. Note
The vehicle cannot operate properly if you do
not have a genuine SEAT key. Digital instrument panel

Fuel gauge  and reserve indicator Fig. 72
Instrument panel: fuel gauge The fuel tank has a capacity of approx. 45 li-
tres.
When the gauge reaches the reserve area,
