The sensor surfaces on the door handles
could engage if hit with a water jet or high
pressure steam if there is a valid vehicle key
in the nearby area. If at least one of the win-
dows is open and the sensor surface B on
one of the handle permanently activates, all
windows will close. If the water jet or steam
is briefly moved away from the sensor sur-
face A on one of the handles and then poin-
ted at it again, all the windows will probably
open ››› page 60, Convenience functions. Note
● If the vehicle battery has little or no charge,
or the vehicle key battery is almost or entire-
ly out of charge, it is likely that the vehicle
will not be able to be lock or unlocked with
the Keyless Access system. The vehicle can
be unlocked or locked manually ››› page 259.
● If there is no valid key inside the vehicle or
the system fails to detect one, a warning will
display on the dash panel screen. This could
happen if any other radio frequency signal in- terferes with the key signal (e.g. from a mo-
bile device accessory) or if the key is covered
by another object (e.g. an aluminium case).
● If the sensors are very dirty, e.g. have a lay-
er of salt, how the sensors on the door han-
dles operate may be affected. If this is the
case, wash the vehicle ››› page 195.
● If the vehicle is equipped with an automatic
gearbox, it may only be locked in the gear
stick is in position P. Deadlock

possible in the luggage compartment and
lock the seat backs in the vertical position.
● Secure luggage in the luggage compart-
ment with suitable straps on the fastening
rings ››› page 100
.
● Chec k
the headlight adjustment
››› page 74
.
● Use the suitable tyre pressure according to
the load being transported. Read the tire in-
flation information label ›››
page 231.
● For vehicles with a tire pressure indicator,
change the vehicle load status ›››
page 177. CAUTION
Objects on the shelf could chafe against the
wires of the heating element in the heated

›› page 110. Driving with the rear lid open
Driving with the rear lid open creates an addi-
tional risk. Secure all objects and secure the
rear lid correctly and take all measures possi-
ble to reduce toxic gases from entering the
vehicle.
WARNING
Driving with the rear lid unlocked or open
could cause serious injuries.
● Always drive with the rear lid closed.
● Secure all objects in the vehicle. Loose
items could fall out of the vehicle and injure
other road users or damage other vehicles.
● Drive particularly carefully and think
ahead.
● Avoid sudden manoeuvres and braking giv-
en that this could cause an uncontrolled
movement of the open rear lid.
● When transporting objects that protrude
out of the luggage compartment, indicate
them suitably. Observe legal requirements.
● If objects must project out of the luggage
compartment, the rear lid must never be used
to “secure” or “attach” objects.
● If a baggage rack is fitted on the rear lid, it
should be removed before travelling with the
rear lid open. WARNING
Toxic gases may enter the vehicle interior
when the rear lid is open. This could cause
loss of consciousness, carbon monoxide poi-
soning, serious injury and accidents.
● To avoid toxic gases entering the vehicle al-
ways drive with the rear lid closed.
● In exceptional circumstances, if you must
drive with the rear lid open, observe the fol-
lowing to reduce the entry of toxic gases in-
side the vehicle:
– Close all windows and the sliding sun-
roof.
– Turn off the air recirculation for the heat-
ing and air conditioner.
– Open all of the air outlets in the dash
panel.
– Turn the heating fan and heater to the
highest level. CAUTION
An open boot hatch changes the length and
height of the vehicle. Driving a loaded vehicle

Driver assistance systems
● when a sporty driving style is employed,
● in the event of a major distraction for the
driver,
The tiredness detection function switches off
when the ignition is switched off or when the
driver unbuckles their seat belt and opens
the door. If driving for a long time under 65
km/h (40 mph), the system ceases to assess
tiredness automatically. If driving speed is
then increased, the behaviour at the wheel
will again be evaluated.
Tyre monitoring systems
Introduction The tyre monitor indicator monitors the tyre
pressure of each wheel during driving using
the ABS sensors. The ABS sensors monitor
the tyre tread perimeter and vibrations of
each tire. The tyre monitor indicator warns
the driver if it detects a considerable drop in
tyre pressure of one or several tyres while
driving. Loss of tyre pressure will be indica-
ted by the indicator
 as well as an audible
warning and sometimes a text message on
the dash panel display. When you open the
driver door, you will find a label indicating
the tyre pressure recommended by the manu-
facturer for the maximum vehicle load for
each tyre approved for the vehicle in ques-
tion. By pressing the adjustment button on the tyre monitoring indicator, you may
change the reference pressure for the tyres
so that the tyre pressure coincides with ac-
tual pressure
››› page 179 .
S uit
able use of the adjustment button
››› page 179. WARNING
Unsuitable handling of the wheels and tyres
may lead to sudden tyre pressure losses, to
tread separation or even to a blow-out.
● Check tyre pressures regularly and ensure
they are maintained at the pressures indica-
ted. If the tyre pressure is too low, the tyres
could overheat, resulting in tread detachment
or even burst tyres.
● Tyre pressure should be that indicated on
the label when the tyres are cold at all times
››› page 235.
● Re

gularly check the cold inflation pressure
of the tyres. If necessary, change the tyre
pressure of the vehicle tyres while they are
cold.
● Regularly check your tyres for damage and
wear.
● Never exceed the maximum permitted
speed or loads specified for the type of tyre
fitted on your vehicle. WARNING
Incorrect use of the tyre monitoring indicator
button could result in the indicator giving er- roneous messages or prevented from indicat-
ing the danger caused by a defective tyre
››› page 179. CAUTION
● The tyre valves may be damaged if the cap
is not in place. Check that the caps are identi-
cal to the standard caps and have been cor-
rectly tightened. Do not use metal caps
››› page 179.
● Do not damage the valves when changing
the tyres ››› page 179
. For the sake of the environment
Under-inflated tyres lead to increased fuel
consumption and tyre wear. Note
● Do not only rely on the tyre monitoring sys-
tem. Regularly check your tyres to ensure
that the tyre pressure is correct and that the
tyres are not damaged due to puncture, cuts,
tears and impacts/dents. Remove objects
from the tyres only when the tyres have not
been pierced by these.
● The tyre monitoring system is set to the
tyre pressure recommended by the manufac-
turer and indicated on the label ››› Fig. 175. 177

following cases:
● If the wheel is damaged.
● The outside temperature is lower than -20
℃ (-4 °F).
● If the tear or puncture on the tyre is over 4
mm wide.
● If you have driven with very low pressure or
a flat tyre.
● If the expiry date on the bottle of tyre seal-
ant has passed. WARNING
Using the tyre mobility system can be dan-
gerous, especially when filling the tyre at the
roadside. Please observe the following rules
to minimise the risk of injury:
● Stop the vehicle safely as soon as possible.
Park it at a safe distance from surrounding
traffic to fill the tyre.
● Ensure the ground is flat and firm.
● All occupants, and especially children,
should always be at a safe distance outside
the work area.
● Turn on the hazard warning lights to warn
other road users. ●
Use the tyre mobility system only if you are
familiar with the necessary procedures. Oth-
erwise, you should seek professional assis-
tance.
● Only use the tyre mobility system in the
event of an emergency to get to the nearest
workshop.
● Replace the repaired tyre with the tire mo-
bility set as soon as possible.
● The sealant is hazardous for your health
and if it touches your skin, it must be imme-
diately washed off.
● Keep children away from the tyre mobility
system.
● Never use a jack even if it is approved for
the vehicle.
● To reduce the risk of the vehicle possibly
moving on its own, always turn off the en-
gine, set the electronic parking brake and put
the selector lever in position P or put into
gear if the gearbox is a manual. WARNING
A tyre repaired with sealant does not have
the normal drive properties.
● Never drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph).
● Avoid hard acceleration, heavy braking and
fast cornering.
● Check the tyre after travelling 10 minutes
at no more than 80 km/h (50 mph). For the sake of the environment
Once used or expired, dispose of the sealant
according to legal provisions. Note
● Sealant bottles can be purchased from
SEAT dealers.
● Observe the usage instructions provided by
the snow chain manufacturer. Contents of the tyre mobility system*
