Start-Stop operating display.
Updated information relating to the status is
displayed on the instrument panel
››› page 156 . WARNING
Observe the safety warnings ››› in Control
and warning lamps on page 47. WARNING
Even though outside temperatures are above
freezing, some roads and bridges may be icy.
● At outside temperatures above +4°C
(+39°F), even when the “ice crystal symbol”
is not visible, there may still be patches of ice
on the road.
● Never rely on the outside temperature indi-
cator! Note
● Different versions of the instrument panel
are available and therefore the versions and
instructions on the display may vary. In the
case of displays without warning or informa-
tion texts, faults are indicated exclusively by
the warning lamps.
● When several warnings are active at the
same time, the symbols are shown succes-
sively for a few seconds and will stay on until
the fault is rectified. Compass*
Fig. 35
Magnetic zones The compass does not require calibration in
vehicles for which the navigation system was
mounted at the factory. The option
compass
disappears.
The compass in vehicles in which the naviga-
tion system was not mounted at the factory, is permanently and automatically calibrated.
If electronic or metal accessories (mobile
phone, television) are subsequently mounted
in the vehicle, the compass should be recali-
brated manually.
Adjusting the magnetic zone
● Switch the ignition on.
● Select the Settings menu followed by the
option Compass and Zone.
● Sel ect
the magnetic zone corresponding to
the position of the vehicle ››› Fig. 35.
● Adjus

t and confirm the magnetic zone
(1-15).
Calibrating compass
To calibrate the compass you must be in one
of the valid magnetic zones with sufficient
space to be able to trace a circumference
with the vehicle.
● Switch the ignition on.
● Select the Settings menu followed by the
option Compass and Calibrate.
● Confirm the message Describe a complete
circumference to calibrate the compass with OK and then trace a complete circumference
driving at approximately 10 km/h (6 mph).
When the corresponding cardinal point is dis-
played, the calibration is complete.

page 42 WARNING
If the warning lamps and messages are ignor-
ed, the vehicle may stall in traffic, or may
cause accidents and severe injuries.
● Never ignore the warning lamps or text
messages.
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
● Park the vehicle away from traffic and en-
sure that there are no highly flammable ma-
terials under the vehicle that could come into
contact with the exhaust system (e.g. dry
grass, fuel). ●
A faulty vehicle represents a risk of acci-
dent for the driver and for other road users. If
necessary, switch on the hazard warning
lamps and put out the warning triangle to ad-
vise other drivers.
● Before opening the bonnet, switch off the
engine and allow it to cool.
● In any vehicle, the engine compartment is a
hazardous area and could cause severe inju-
ries ››› page 214. CAUTION
Failure to heed the control lamps and text
messages when they appear may result in
faults in the vehicle. SEAT information system
Introduction With the ignition switched on, it is possible
to read the different functions of the display
by scrolling through the menus.
In vehicles with a multifunction steering
wheel, there are no buttons on the wind-
screen wiper lever. The multifunction display
can only be controlled from the buttons on
the steering wheel.
The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment.A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gramme or modify additional functions, ac-
cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends taking your car in for technical
service.
Some menu options can only be read when
the vehicle is at a standstill.
As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it
will not be possible to read the menus. To
display the menus, confirm the warning by
pressing
OK .

Air conditioning
Air conditioner Introduction Viewing Climatronic information
The factory-fitted radio or navigation system
screen briefly displays information relating to
Climatronic.
The units of temperature measurement is dis-
played on the factory-installed radio or navi-
gation system and, depending on the vehicle
equipment, can be set using the
Configura-
tion menu on the instrument panel. WARNING
Reduced visibility through the windows in-
creases the risk of serious accidents.
● Ensure that all windows are free of ice and
snow and that they are not fogged up pre-
venting a clear view of everything outside.
● The maximum heat output required to de-
frost windows quickly is only available when
the engine has reached its normal running
temperature. Only drive when you have good
visibility. ●
Always ensure that you use the air condi-
tioner and heated rear window to maintain
good visibility.
● Never leave the air recirculation on for a
long period of time. If the cooling system is
switched off and air recirculation mode
switched on, the windows can mist over very
quickly, considerably limiting visibility.
● Switch air recirculation mode off when it is
not required. WARNING
Stuffy or used air will increase fatigue and re-
duce driver concentration possibly resulting
in a serious accident.
● Never leave the fresh air fan turned off or
use the air recirculation for long periods of
time; the air in the vehicle interior will not be
refreshed. CAUTION
● Switch the air conditioner off if you think it
may be broken. This will avoid additional
damage. Have the air conditioner checked by
a specialised workshop.
● Repairs to the air conditioner require spe-
cialist knowledge and special tools. SEAT rec-
ommends taking your car in for technical
service. ●
Do not smoke when air recirculation is
switched on in vehicles with an air condition-
er. The smoke taken in could lie on the cool-
ing system vaporiser and on the activated
charcoal cartridge of the dust and pollen fil-
ter, leading to a permanently unpleasant
smell. Note
● When the cooling system is turned off, air
coming from the outside will not be dried. To
avoid fogging up the windows, SEAT recom-
mends leaving the cooler (compressor) on. To
do this, press the A/C button. The button
lamp should light up.
● If the humidity and temperature outside the
vehicle are high, condensation can drip off
the evaporator in the cooling system and
form a pool underneath the vehicle, this is
completely normal and there is no need to
suspect a leak.
● Keep the air intake slots in front of the
windscreen free of snow, ice and leaves to en-
sure heating and cooling are not impaired,
and to prevent the windows from misting
over. 122

The interior cooling system only works when
the engine is running and fan is switched on.
The air conditioner operates most effectively
with the windows and the electric sliding
panoramic roof closed. However, if the vehi-
cle has heated up after standing in the sun
for some time, the air inside can be cooled
more quickly by opening the windows and
the sliding electric panoramic sunroof briefly.Setting for conditions of optimal visibility
When the air conditioning is switched on, the
temperature and the air humidity in the vehi-
cle interior drop. In this way, when the out-
side air humidity is high, the windows do not
mist over and comfort for the vehicle occu-
pants is improved.
