2017 Seat Ateca door lock

Safety
Read and always observe the safety informa-
tion inc luded in the f
ollowing chapters:
● Safety distance with respect to the passen-
ger airb
ag ››› page 73.
● Objects between the passenger and the
pa
ssenger side airbag ››› in Front airbags
on p ag
e 75.
The passenger side front airbag, when ena-
bled, is a serious risk for a child that is facing
backward since the airbag can strike the seat
with such force that it can cause serious or
fatal injuries. Children up to 12 years old
should always travel on the rear seat.
Therefore we strongly recommend you to
transport children on the rear seats. This is
the safest location in the vehicle. Alternative-
ly, the front passenger airbag can be disa-
bled with a key-operated switch ››› page 78.
When transporting children, use a child seat
suitable for the age and size of each child
››› page 81. WARNING
● If a c

hild seat is secured to the front pas-
senger seat, the risk to the child of sustain-
ing critical or fatal injuries in the event of an
accident increases.
● An inflating front passenger airbag can
strik
e the rear-facing child seat and project it
with great force against the door, the roof or
the backrest. ●
Nev er in

stall a child seat facing backwards
on the front passenger seat unless the front
passenger front airbag has been disabled.
Risk of potentially fatal injuries to the child!
However, if it is necessary, in exceptional ca-
ses, to transport a child in the front passen-
ger seat, the front passenger front airbag
must always be disabled ››› page 77. If the
passenger seat has a height adjustment op-
tion, move it to the highest, most upright po-
sition. If you have a fixed seat, do not install
any child restraint system in this location.
● For those vehicles that do not include a key
lock
switch to deactivate the airbag, the vehi-
cle must be taken to a technical service. Do
not forget to reconnect the airbag when an
adult wants to sit in the front passenger seat.
● All vehicle occupants, especially children,
mus
t assume the proper sitting position and
be properly belted in while travelling.
● Never hold children or babies on your lap,
this
can result in potentially fatal injuries to
the child!
● Never allow a child to be transported in a
vehic
le without being properly secured, or to
stand up or kneel on a seat while travelling.
In an accident, the child could be flung
through the vehicle, causing possibly fatal in-
juries to themselves and to the other vehicle
occupants.
● If children assume an improper sitting posi-
tion when the v
ehicle is moving, they expose
themselves to greater risk of injury in the
event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an
accident. This is particularly important if the child is travelling on the front passenger seat
and the airb
ag sy

stem is triggered in an acci-
dent; as this could cause serious injury or
even death.
● A suitable child seat can protect your child!
● Never leave a child alone in the child seat
or ins
ide the vehicle because depending on
the season, very high temperatures may be
reached inside a parked vehicle, which could
be fatal.
● Children who are less than 1.5 metres tall
mus
t not wear a normal seat belt without a
child seat, as this could cause injuries to the
abdominal and neck areas during a sudden
braking manoeuvre or in an accident.
● Do not allow the seat belt to become twis-
ted and the se
at belt should be properly in
place ››› page 68.
● Only one child may occupy a child seat
››

› page 80, Child seats.
● When a child seat is mounted in the rear
seat
s, the door child-proof lock should be ac-
tivated ››› page 120. Child seats

Description Read the additional information carefully
› ›

›  page 9
The vehicle can be locked and unlocked via
the central locking system. There are several
methods, depending on the vehicle equip-
ment:
● key with remote control ›
›
›
page 114 ,
● lock on driver door (emergency opening
››

›  page 9) or
● interior central locking switch ››
›
page 115.
Unlocking one side of the vehicle only
When you lock the vehicle with the key, the
doors and the rear lid are locked. When you
open the door, you can either unlock only the
driver door, or all the vehicle doors. To select
the required option, use Easy Connect*
››› page 115.
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)*
The Auto Lock function locks the doors and
the rear lid when the vehicle exceeds a speed
of about 15 km/h (9 mph). The vehicle is unlocked again when the igni-
tion key

is removed. Alternatively, the vehicle
can also be unlocked via the central locking
switch or by pulling one of the inside door
handles. The Auto Lock function can be
switched on and off on the sound system or
on the Easy Connect* system ››› page 115.
In the event of an accident in which the air-
bags inflate, the doors will be automatically
unlocked to facilitate access and assistance.
Anti-theft alarm system*
If the anti-theft alarm system senses interfer-
ence with the vehicle it triggers an audible
and visible alarm.
The anti-theft alarm system is automatically
switched on when locking the vehicle. It
switches off when the vehicle is unlocked
from a distance.
When the driver door is unlocked with the
key, you should switch on the ignition within
15 seconds. Otherwise the alarm will be trig-
gered. On some export versions, the alarm is
triggered immediately when you open a door.
To deactivate the alarm, press the button  on the remote control key, or switch on the
ignition. Af
t

er a certain time, the alarm will
automatically switch off.
Switch off the vehicle interior monitoring and
tow-away protection if you wish to prevent the alarm from being triggered accidentally
››
› page 123.
Turn signals
The turn signals will flash twice when the ve-
hicle is unlocked and once when the vehicle
is locked.
If it does not flash, this indicates that one of
the doors, the rear lid or the bonnet is not
closed correctly.
Accidental lock-out
The central locking system prevents you from
being locked out of the vehicle in the follow-
ing situations: ● If the driver door is open, the vehicle can-
not be loc
ked with the central locking switch
››› page 115.
Lock the vehicle with the remote control key,
when all the doors and the rear lid have been
closed. This prevents the accidental locking
of the vehicle. WARNING
Do not leave anyone (especially children) in
the v

ehicle if it is locked from the outside and
the anti-theft security system* is enabled, as
the doors and windows cannot then be
opened from the inside. Locked doors could
delay assistance in an emergency, potentially
putting lives at risk. 112

Opening and closing
Note
● Nev er l
eave 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 seconds 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
alarm* system will only function as in-
tended if the windows and the sunroof* are
closed. Car key

The vehicle key includes an emitter and bat-
tery. The receiver is in the interior of the vehi-
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

tery changed ››› page 120.
Different keys belonging to the vehicle may
be used.
Control lamp on the vehicle key
When a button on the vehicle key is pressed,
the control lamp flashes ››› Fig. 121 (arrow)
once briefly, but if the button is held down for a longer period the control lamp flashes sev-
eral

times, such as in convenience opening.
If the vehicle key control lamp does not light
up when the button is pressed, replace the
key's battery ››› page 120.
Unfolding and folding the key shaft
Press button 1

or ››› Fig. 122 to
unlock and unfold the key shaft.
To fold the shaft away, press button 1 and
f o

ld the key shaft in until it locks in place.
Alarm button*
Only press alarm button 2 in the event of an
emer g

ency! When the alarm button is press-
ed, the vehicle horn is heard and the turn sig-
nals are switched on for a short time. When
the alarm button is pressed again, the alarm
is switched off.
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. »

Operation
The vehicle keys or new spare keys can be
o bt
ained from a SEAT Official Service, a spe-
cialised workshop or an approved key service
qualified to create this kind of key.
New keys or spare keys must be synchron-
ised before use ››› page 120. CAUTION
All of the vehicle keys contain electronic com-
ponent s. Pr

otect them from damage, impacts
and humidity. Note
● On ly

use the key button when you require
the corresponding function. Pushing the but-
ton unnecessarily could accidentally unlock
the vehicle or trigger the alarm. It is also pos-
sible even when you are outside the radius of
action.
● Key operation can be greatly influenced by
ov
erlapping radio signals close to the vehicle
working in the same range of frequencies, for
example, radio transmitters or mobile tele-
phones.
● Obstacles between the remote control and
the v
ehicle, bad weather conditions and dis-
charged batteries can considerably reduce
the range of the remote control.
● If the buttons of the vehicle key are press-
ed ››

› Fig. 121 or ››› Fig. 122 or one of the cen-
tral locking buttons ››› page 115 is pressed
repeatedly in short succession, the central
