If a mobile terminal is not secured or is incor-
rectly sec

ured in the vehicle, it could move
around the passenger compartment in the
event of a sudden driving manoeuvre, emer-
gency stop or accident, resulting in injury.
● While driving, mobile terminals must be se-
curely
fastened in position, outside the air-
bag deployment zones, or safely stowed
away. WARNING
Any applications that are not suitable or exe-
cut e inc

orrectly may cause damage to the ve-
hicle, accidents and serious injuries.
● SEAT recommends the use of the Apps that
SEAT pr
ovides for this vehicle.
● To make full use of SEAT Apps, you must ac-
tivate the option
Setup, “Data transfer for

The use of applications while driving can dis-
tr act

your attention from the traffic. Distract-
ing the driver in any way can lead to an acci-
dent and cause injuries.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly. CAUTION
● In are a

s where special regulations apply or
the use of mobile terminals is forbidden, the
mobile terminal must be switched off at all
times. The radiation produced by the mobile
terminal when switched on may interfere with
sensitive technical and medical equipment,
possibly resulting in malfunction or damage
to the equipment.
● SEAT cannot be held liable for any damage
caused t
o the vehicle as a result of the use of
applications that are of poor quality or are
defective, the inadequate programming of
