The essentials
Mount the child seat with the “ISOFIX

ISOFIX securing rings. When removing or fitting the child seat,
p
l
e a
se be sure to follow the manufacturer's
instructions.
● Press the child seat onto the “ISOFIX” re-
taining ring
s until the child seat can be heard
to engage securely. If the child seat is fitted
with any other anti-rotation system, follow
the manufacturer instructions carefully.
● Pull on both sides of the child seat to en-
sure that
it is secure.
Child seats with the “ISOFIX” and Top Tether*
attachment system are available from Techni-
cal Services. Top Tether* retainer straps

Position of the Top Tether rings on the
b ac
k of
the rear seat. Child seats with the Top Tether system come
w
ith a s
trap f
or securing the seat to the vehi-
cle anchor point, located at the back of the
rear seat backrest and provide greater re-
straint.
The objective of this strap is to reduce the
forward movement of the child seat in a
crash, to reduce the risk of injuries to the
head from hitting the inside of the vehicle.
Using the Top Tether in rear-facing mounted
seats
Currently, there are very few rear-facing child
safety seats that have Top Tether. Please
carefully read and follow the seat manufac-
turer instructions to learn the proper way to
install the Top Tether strap. Securing the Top Tether* of the child
seat to the anc
horage point Fig. 28
Retainer strap: correct adjustment
and fittin g. Securing to the anchorage point located on

by scrolling through the menus. In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel,
the multifu

splay can only be operat-
ed with the steering wheel buttons.
The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment. » 25

The essentials
A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gr amme or modif

cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends visiting a SEAT Official 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. Some
warning messages can be confirmed and
made to disappear with the windscreen wiper
lever button or the multifunction steering
wheel button.
The information system also provides the fol-
lowing information and displays (depending
on the vehicle's equipment):

The essentials
on the instrument panel, as well as a mes-
s ag
e for the driv
er: speed warning ex-
ceeded! The warning lamp switches off
when reducing speed below the stored maxi-
mum limit.
Speed warning programming is recommen-
ded if you wish to be reminded of a maxi-
mum speed, such as when travelling in a
country with different speed limits or for a
maximum speed for winter tyres.
Setting speed limit warning
You can use the radio or the Easy Connect* to
set, alter or cancel the speed limit warning.
● Vehicles with radio : press
the button SETUP> control button Driver Assistant
>
Speed warning .
● Vehicles with Easy Connect : pre
ss
the but-
ton Systems or else Vehicle systems >
Driver assistant > Speed warning.
The warning limit can be set from 30 to
240 km/h (20 to 150 mph). The adjustment
is done in 10 km/h intervals. Note
● Plea se be
ar in mind that, even with the
speed warning function, it is still important
to keep an eye on the vehicle speed with the
speedometer and to observe the legal speed
limits. ●
The speed limit w arnin
g function in the ver-
sion for several countries warns you at a
speed of 120 km/h (80 mph). This is a facto-
ry-set speed limit. Service intervals
The service interval indication appears on the
instrument
p
anel display ›››
Fig. 121

SEAT di s
tinguishes between services with en-
gine oil 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
pre-defined.
In vehicles with LongLife Service , the inter-
vals are determined individually. Thanks to
technological progress, maintenance work
has been greatly reduced. Because of the
technology used by SEAT, with this service
you only need to change the oil when the ve-
hicle so requires. To calculate this change
(max. 2 years), the vehicle's conditions of
use and individual driving styles are consid-
ered. The advance warning first appears 20
days before the date established for the cor-
responding 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. Prior to
this, only
line
s 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.
Vehicles without text messages : a span-
ner will be displayed on the instrument
panel plus an indication in km.
The kilometres indicated are the maximum
number of kilometres that can be travelled
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 is due.
Vehicles with text messages : Service in
--- km or --- days will be shown on the
instrument panel display.
Service due
When the service date is due , an audible
warning is given when the ignition is switch-
ed on and the spanner displayed on the
screen flashes for a few seconds .
Vehicles with text messages : Service now
will be shown on the instrument panel dis-
play. » 33

● In v ehic
les with the LongLife system in
which the batter
