Note
● Never l e
ave any valuable items in the vehi-
cle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not a
safe.
● If the diode on the driver door sill lights up
for about 30 sec
onds when the vehicle is
locked, the central locking system or anti-
theft alarm* is not working properly. You
should have the fault repaired at a SEAT Offi-
cial Service or specialised workshop.
● The vehicle interior monitoring of the anti-
theft a
larm* system will only function as in-
tended if the windows and the sunroof* are
closed. Car key

cle. The range of the vehicle key with remote
control and new battery is several metres around the vehicle.
If it is not possible to open or close the vehi-
cle using the remote control key, this should
be re-synchronised ››› page 123 or the bat-
tery changed ››› page 122.
Different keys belonging to the vehicle may

Control lamp on the vehicle key
When a button on the vehicle key is pressed,
the control lamp flashes ››› Fig. 128 (arrow)
once briefly, but if the button is held down for a longer period the control lamp flashes sev-
eral time

If the vehicle key control lamp does not light
up when the button is pressed, replace the
key's battery ››› page 122.

Spare key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys,
the vehicle chassis number is required.
Each new key contains a microchip which
must be coded with the data from the vehicle
electronic immobiliser. A vehicle key will not
work if it does not contain a microchip or the
microchip has not been encoded. This is also
true for keys which are specially cut for the
vehicle. »

Automatically disabling sensors
If the vehicle is not locked or unlocked for a
long period of time, the proximity sensors on
the passenger doors are automatically disa-
bled.
If one of the sensor surfaces on the door han-
dles is often activated in a unusual manner
with the vehicle locked (e.g. by the branches
of a bush rubbing against it), all proximity sensors are disabled for a certain period of
time.
Sensors

will again be enabled:
● After a time.
● OR: if the vehicle is unlocked with the but-
ton  on the key.

om the inside. This sys-
tem prevents minors from opening a door ac-
cidentally while the vehicle is running.
This function is independent of the vehicle
electronic opening and locking systems. It
only affects rear doors. It can only be activa-
ted and deactivated manually, as described
below:
Activating the childproof lock
– Unlock the vehicle and open the door in
which y

ou wish to activate the childproof
lock.
– With the door open, rotate the groove in
the door usin

Anti-theft alarm system* Des
cription The anti-theft alarm makes it more difficult to
br
e
ak

into the vehicle or steal it.
The anti-theft alarm is automatically turned
on when the vehicle is locked with the key.
● The turn signal light will flash twice on
opening and deactiv
ating the alarm. ●
The turn sign
al light will flash once on clos-
ing and activating the alarm.
When does the system trigger an alarm?
The anti-theft alarm siren will be triggered for
about 30 seconds accompanied by sound
and optical (flashing) warning signals and
will be repeated about ten times when the
vehicle is locked and the following unauthor-
ised actions are attempted:
● Opening a door that is mechanically un-
locked u
sing the vehicle key without switch-
ing on the ignition in the next 15 seconds (in
certain markets, such as the Netherlands,
there is no 15 second waiting time and the
alarm is activated immediately on opening
the door).
● A door is opened.
● The bonnet is opened.
● The rear lid is opened.
● When the ignition is switched on with a
non-authorised k
ey.
● When the vehicle battery is disconnected.
● Movement inside the vehicle (in vehicles
with interior monit
oring ››› page 126).
● When the vehicle is towed (in vehicles with
anti-tow sy
stem ››› page 126).
● When the vehicle is raised (in vehicles with
anti-to w sy

stem ››› page 126). ●
When the v ehic

le is transported on a ferry
or by rail (vehicles with an anti-tow system or
vehicle interior monitoring ››› page 126).
● When a trailer connected to the anti-theft
alarm sys
tem is disconnected.
How to turn OFF the alarm
Unlock the vehicle with the unlocking button
on the key or turn on the ignition with a valid
key. Note
● Aft er 28 d

ays, the indicator light will be
switched off to prevent the battery from ex-
hausting if the vehicle has been left parked
for a long period of time. The alarm system
remains activated.
● If, after the audible warning goes off, an-
other monitored ar
ea is accessed (e.g. the
rear lid is opened after a door has been
opened), the alarm is triggered again.
● The anti-theft alarm is not activated when
the vehic
le is locked from within using the
central locking button  .
● If the driver door is unlocked mechanically
with the k ey

, only the driver door is unlocked,
the rest of the doors remain locked. Only
when the ignition has been turned on will the
other doors be available - but not unlocked -
and the central locking button will be activa-
ted. 124

Opening and closing
●
If the v
ehicle battery is run down or flat
then the anti-theft alarm will not operate cor-
rectly.
● Vehicle monitoring remains active even if
the batter
y is disconnected or not working for
any reason.
● The alarm is triggered immediately if one of
the batter
y cables is disconnected while the
alarm system is active. Vehicle interior monitoring and anti-
to
w sy

stem* It is a monitoring or control function incorpo-
r
at
ed in the anti-thef

t alarm* which detects
unauthorised vehicle entry by means of ultra-
sound.
Activation
– It is automatically switched on when the
anti-theft al

arm is activated.
Deactivation – Open the vehicle with the key, either me-
chanic

ally or by pressing the  button on
the r emot
e c
ontrol. The time period from
when the door is opened until the key is in-
serted in the contact should not exceed 15
seconds, otherwise the alarm will be trig-
gered. –
Pres
s the button  on the remote control
tw ic
e.
The volumetric sensor and tilt sen-
sors will be deactivated. The alarm system
remains activated.
The vehicle interior monitoring and the anti-
tow system are automatically switched on
again next time the vehicle is locked.
The vehicle interior monitoring and anti-tow
sensor (tilt sensor) are automatically switch-
ed on when the anti-theft alarm is switched
on. In order to activate it, all the doors and
the rear lid must be closed.
If you wish to switch off the vehicle interior
monitoring and the anti-tow system, it must
be done each time that the vehicle is locked;
if not, they will be automatically switched on.
The vehicle interior monitoring and the anti-
tow system should be switched off if animals
are left inside the locked vehicle (otherwise,
their movements will trigger the alarm) or
when, for example, the vehicle is transported
or has to be towed with only one axle on the
ground.
False alarms
Interior monitoring will only operate correctly
if the vehicle is completely closed. Please ob-
serve related legal requirements.
The following cases may cause a false alarm: ● Open windows (partially or fully). ●
Panoramic/ti lting sunroof open (partially or
completely).
● Movement of objects inside the vehicle,
such a
s loose papers, items hanging from
the rear vision mirror (air fresheners), etc. Note
● If the v

ehicle is relocked and the alarm is
activated without the volumetric sensor func-
tion, relocking will activate the alarm with all
its functions, except the volumetric sensor.
This function is reactivated when the alarm is
switched on again, unless it is deliberately
switched off.
● If the alarm has been triggered by the volu-
metric sensor
, this will be indicated by a
flashing of the warning lamp on the driver
door when the vehicle is opened. The flash is
different to the flash indicating the alarm is
activated.
● The vibration of a mobile phone left inside
the vehic
le may cause the vehicle interior
monitoring alarm to trigger, as both sensors
react to movements and shakes inside the ve-
hicle.
● If on activating the alarm, any door or the
rear lid i
s open, only the alarm will be activa-
ted. The vehicle interior monitoring and the
anti-tow system will only be activated once
all the doors are closed (including the rear
lid). 125
