When the outside temperature is below +4°C
(+39°F), the symbol “ice crystal” (warning ofrisk of freezing) is also displayed next to the
temperature. At first this symbol flashes and

produced by the engine.
The temperatures measured range from
-40°C to +50°C (-40°F to +122°F).

Operation
Service interval display Service interval display The service interval indication appears on the
instrument panel display
››› Fig. 82 4 .
SEAT distinguishes between services with en-
gine oi l
change (e.g. Oil change service) and
services without
engine oil change (e.g. In-
spection).
In vehicles with Services established by time
or mileage, the service intervals are already
pr e-defined.
In

vehicles with LongLife Service , the inter-
vals are determined individually. Technical
progress has made it possible to considera-
bly reduce servicing requirements. The tech-
nology used by SEAT ensures that your vehi-
cle only has an Oil Servicing when it is neces-
sary. To establish when the oil servicing is
due (max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions
of use and individual driving styles are con-
sidered. The service pre-warning first ap-
pears 20 days before the date established for
the corresponding service. The kilometres
(miles) remaining until the next service are
always rounded up to the nearest 100 km
(miles) and the time is given in complete
days. The current service message cannot be
viewed until 500 km after the last service. Pri-
or to this only lines are visible on the display. Inspection reminder
When the Service date is approaching, when
the ignition is switched on a
Service remind-
er is displayed.
In vehicles without text messages , a s
panner
is displayed on the instrument panel  with
a figure giv
en in km. The number of kilome-
tres shown is the maximum number that may
be driven until the next service. After a few
seconds, the display mode changes. A clock
symbol appears and the number of days until
the next service appointment is due.
In vehicles with text messages , Serv
ice in ---
km (miles) or --- days is displayed on the in- strument panel.
Service due
After the service date, an audible warning is
given when the ignition i
s switched on and
the spanner displayed on the screen flashes
for a few seconds . In
vehicles with text
messages, Service in --- km or --- days is dis-
played on the instrument panel.
Reading a service notification
With the ignition switched on, the engine off
and the vehicle at a standstill, the current
service notification
can be read:
Press and hold the button ››› Fig. 82 4 for
more than 5 seconds to consult the service
message. When the service date has past
, a minus sign
is displayed in front of the number of kilome-
tres or days. In vehicles with text messages
the following is displayed: Service --- km
(miles) or --- days ago .
The time can also be set via the  key and
Setup function button in the Easy Connect
system ››› page 81 .
R e

setting service interval display
If the service was not carried out by a SEAT
dealership, the display can be reset as fol-
lows:
● To reset the service interval display, turn
the ignition off and press and hold the but-
ton ››› Fig. 82 4 .
● Switch the ignition back on.
● Release the button ››› Fig. 82 4 and press
the button 4 again for the next 20 seconds.
Note
● The service message disappears after a few
seconds, when the engine is started or when OK/RESET is pressed on the windscreen wiper
lever, or OK on the multifunction steering
wheel.
● In vehicles with the LongLife system in
which the battery has been disconnected for
a long period of time, it is not possible to cal-
culate the date of the next service. Therefore
the service interval display may not be cor- rect. In this case, bear in mind the maximum 80

Note
● Never leave any valuable items in the vehi-
cle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not a
safe.
● If the diode on the driver door sill lights up
for about 30 seconds when the vehicle is
locked, the central locking system or anti-
theft alarm* is not working properly. You
should have the fault repaired at a SEAT Offi-
cial Service or specialised workshop.
● The vehicle interior monitoring of the anti-
theft alarm* system will only function as in-
tended if the windows and the sunroof* are
closed. Car key

Alarm button*
Only press alarm button 2 in the event of an
emergency! When the alarm button is press-

nals are switched on for a short time. When
the alarm button is pressed again, the alarm
is switched off.
Replacing a key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys,
the vehicle chassis number is required.
Each new key contains a microchip which
must be coded with the data from the vehicle
electronic immobiliser. A vehicle key will not
work if it does not contain a microchip or the
microchip has not been encoded. This is also
true for keys which are specially cut for the
vehicle. »

Operation
Instruction Manual. The vehicle cannot be
opened from inside. This makes it more diffi-
cult for unauthorised persons to break into
the vehicle ››› in Description on page 82.
The anti-theft security system can be switch-
ed off each time the vehicle is locked:
● Turn the key a second time to the lock posi-
tion, in the door lock, for the next two sec-
ond s. If necessary, remove the protective cov-
er on the driver door handle ››› page 227 or
else
● Press  on the remote control key for a
second time for the following 2 seconds.
The fl a

shing frequency of the diode in the
door sill immediately confirms the process.
Initially, the diode flashes in a fast sequence
for a brief period, then it stops for approxi-
mately 30 seconds and, lastly continues
flashing slowly. Changing the battery Fig. 93
Vehicle key: opening the battery com-

● Unfold the vehicle key shaft ››› page 83.
● Remove the cover from the back of the ve-
hicle key ››› Fig. 93 in the direction of the ar-

● Fit the cover as shown ››› Fig. 93 , pressing
it onto the vehicle key casing in the opposite
direction to that shown by the arrow until it
clicks into place. CAUTION
● If the battery is not changed correctly, the
vehicle key may be damaged.
● Use of unsuitable batteries may damage
the vehicle key. For this reason, always re-
place the dead battery with another of the

Opening and closing
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
Interior monitoring will only operate correctly
if the vehicle is completely closed. Please ob-
serve related legal requirements.
The following cases may cause a false alarm:
● Open windows (partially or fully).
● Panoramic/tilting sunroof open (partially or
completely).
● Movement of objects inside the vehicle,
such as loose papers, items hanging from
the rear vision mirror (air fresheners), etc. Note
● If the vehicle is relocked and the alarm is
activated without the volumetric sensor func-
tion, 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 volu-
metric sensor, this will be indicated by a
flashing of the warning lamp on the driver
door when the vehicle is opened. 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 vehicle interior
monitoring alarm to trigger, as both sensors
react to movements and shakes inside the ve-
hicle.
● If on activating the alarm, any door or the
rear lid is open, only the alarm will be activa-
ted. The vehicle interior monitoring and the
anti-tow system will only be activated once
all the doors are closed (including the rear
lid). Deactivating the vehicle interior

protection button. When the vehicle is locked, the alarm will be
triggered if movements are detected in the
interior (e.g. by animals) or if the vehicle's in-
clination is changed (e.g. during transport).
You can prevent the alarm from being trig-gered accidentally by switching off the vehi-
cle interior monitoring and/or tow-away pro-
tection.
– To switch off the vehicle interior monitoring
and tow-away protection, switch off the ig-
nition and press button ››› Fig. 96 . The indi-

Where the vehicle has been locked by press-
ing the
 button on the remote control with
the rear lid open, the rear lid will lock auto-
matically when closed.
