●
Do not touch the exterior mirrors when the
heating system is running.
● If the electrical adjustment should ever fail
to operate, the rear vision mirrors can be ad-
justed by hand by pressing the edge of the
mirror glass.
● Visit the technical service in the event of a
fault in the electrical rear vision mirror ad-
justment system. Seats and head restraints
Adjusting seats and head
restraints
Introduction Set the driver seat in such a way that the
pedals can be fully depressed with your legs
slightly bent.
Set the driver seat backrest so that you can
reach the upper point of the steering wheel
with your arms slightly bent.
The correct seat position is very important
for:
●
reaching all of the controls safely and
quickly,
● a relaxed posture that will not produce fati-
gue,
● maximum protection from the seat belts
and airbag system WARNING
● Adjust the driver seat only when the vehi-
cle is stationary. Risk of accident!
● Be careful when adjusting the front seats!
Careless and uncontrolled adjustment can
cause injuries. ●
The backrests must not be reclined too far
back while driving. This could limit the effect
of the seat belts and the airbag system. Risk
of injury!
● Never transport more than the permitted
amount of people in your vehicle.
● Every occupant in the vehicle must properly
fasten and wear the seat belt belonging to
his or her seat. Children must be protected
with an appropriate child restraint system
››› page 24, Transporting children safety.
● The front seats, head restraints and seat
belts must always be adjusted to the size of
the vehicle occupant to provide you and your
passengers with the greatest possible protec-
tion.
● Your feet should remain in the footwell
while the vehicle is moving; never rest them
on the dash panel, on the window or on the
seat! This also applies to passengers. An in-
correct sitting position exposes you to an in-
creased risk of injury in case of a sudden
braking or an accident. If the airbag is trig-
gered, you could sustain severe injuries due
to an incorrect sitting position!
● It is important for the driver and front pas-
senger to keep a distance of at least 25 cm
from the steering wheel and dash panel. Fail-
ure to respect the minimum distance means
that the airbag will not protect you. Risk of
fatal injury if triggered!
● Objects must not be placed in the footwell,
as they could move to the area of the pedals
in the event of a braking manoeuvre or
change of direction. This would prevent the » 71Technical specifications

Do not place any items on the front passen-
ger seat other than those allowed (e.g. child

For maximum head restraint protection, ad-
just the head restraint so that its upper edge
is at the same level as the top of your head.
The head restraint must be adjusted in line
with the height of users. Correct adjustment of the head restraint, together with the seat
belts, ensure effective passenger protection
››› page 6 . WARNING
● Badly adjusted head restraints increase the
risk of injuries in the event of an accident.
● Never drive with the head restraints re-
moved. Risk of injuries!
● If the seats are in use, never drive with the

tion. Seat functions
Heated front seats* Fig. 60
Heated front seats. The cushion and backrest of the front seats
can be heated electrically. Press the
or
››› Fig. 60 button to switch
on and a dju
st the heated front seats.
Press once to connect the heating at maxi-
mum force.
Press the button again to reduce the force of
the heating and switch it off. The force is indi-
cated by the number of warning lamps lit on
the button. WARNING
Do not use the heated seat if your perception
of pain and/or temperature or that of your
passenger is limited, e.g. due to medication,
paralysis or chronic illness (e.g. diabetes). It
could cause burns on the back, buttocks and
legs that are difficult to heal. If you still want
to use the heated seat, take frequent breaks
on long journeys so that the body can recover
from the trip. Ask your doctor about your par-
ticular situation. CAUTION
● To avoid damaging the heating elements,
do not kneel on the seat or apply sharp pres-
sure at a single point to the seat cushion or
backrest.
● Do not use the heated seats if nobody is
sitting on them or if there are items attached
to or lying on them, such as a child seat or a
bag, etc. This could lead to a fault in the seat
heating elements.
● Do not clean the seats with anything damp

Accessories and modifications to the vehicle
Accessories, replacement parts and
repairs If you wish to retrofit accessories in the vehi-
cle, or if a part of the vehicle has been re-
placed by a new part or technical modifica-
tions are required, the following instructions
must be taken into account:
● Before purchasing accessories or spare
p ar
ts and before making technical modifica-
tions, always request advice from an Author-
ised SEAT dealer ››› .
● In the event that technical modifications
are carried out on the vehicle, the instruc-
tions and regulations specified by the com-
pany, SEAT, must be observed.
No damage will be caused to the vehicle if
the established procedures are respected,
which guarantees safe driving and operation.
After the modifications are carried out, the
vehicle will comply with the restrictions and
regulations of the highway code. More infor-
mation can be obtained at an Authorised SEAT dealer, where all jobs required can be
carried out appropriately.
Vehicle improvements and modifications
The owner must keep the technical documen-
tation regarding the modifications carried out
on the vehicle so it can be handed over to
those responsible for processing end-of-life
vehicles. This ensures end-of-life processing
of the vehicle, while protecting the environ-
ment.
Work done on the electrical components and
software can cause disruption in operations.
Due to the interconnection of electronic com-
ponents, their malfunction can also impair
systems that are not directly affected. This
can adversely affect reliability of the vehicle,
and can produce excessive wear of the parts.
Damage caused by technical modifications
that are not made with the consent of SEAT
will be excluded from the warranty – see war-
ranty certificate.
WARNING
● Jobs or modifications unduly carried out on
your vehicle can cause disruption to opera-
tions - Risk of accident!
● We recommend that you use only expressly
authorised SEAT Accessories and SEAT Origi-
nal Spare Parts for your vehicle. The reliabili-
ty, safety and compatibility with your vehicle of SEAT original spare parts and accessories
has been verified.
●
Despite the continuous observation of the
market, we cannot judge nor guarantee the
suitability of other products for your vehicle,
be they authorised products or products ap-
proved by a state testing facility. Note
SEAT original spare parts and accessories can
be purchased at authorised SEAT dealers
where the purchased parts can also be fitted. Modifications and effects of the
airbag system
In the adjustment and modification, respect
the SEAT directive.
Modifications and corrections of the front
bumper, doors, front seats, roof or bodywork
must be carried out at authorised SEAT work-
shops. Components of the airbag system can
be found in these parts of the vehicle.
WARNING
● Airbag modules must never be repaired.
They must be replaced.
● Never fit components of the airbag system
removed from old vehicles or those originat-
ing from a recycling process in the vehicle. 122
