Use only the wheel wrench belonging to the

sen the wheel bolts.
Loosen the wheel bolts only about one turn
before raising the vehicle with the jack. If the wheel bolt is very tight, carefully push
on the end of the wheel wr
ench with your
foot. Hold on to the vehicle for support and
take care not to slip during this operation.
Loosening wheel bolts
● Fit the wheel wrench on as far as it will go

The caps protect the wheel bolts and should
be pushed fully on again after changing the
tyre.
Loosening the anti-theft wheel bolt
● Take the adapter for the anti-theft wheel
bolts out
of the vehicle tool kit.
● Insert the adapter fully onto the anti-theft
wheel bolt
››› Fig. 84.
● Fit the wheel wrench as far as it will go over
the adapt
er.

The anti-theft wheel bolt has a different cap.
This cap only fits on anti-theft locking bolts
and is not for use with standard wheel bolts. Important information about wheel bolts
Factor
y-fitted rims and wheel bolts are spe-
cially matched during construction. There-
fore, if different rims are fitted, the correct
wheel bolts with the right length and heads
must be used. This ensures that wheels are
fitted securely and that the brake system
functions correctly.
In certain circumstances, you should not
even use wheel bolts from vehicles of the
same model.
In wheels with full hubcaps, the anti-theft
locking bolt must be threaded onto positions 2

Operation
WARNING
● Ple a
se observe the general notes
››› page 79.
● Remove the rear head restraints only when
it is
necessary for the placement of a child
seat ››› page 92. After removing a child seat,
remount the head restraint immediately.
Travelling with the head restraints removed
or improperly adjusted increases the risk of
severe injuries. Seat functions
Intr oduction WARNING
Inappropriate use of the seat functions can
cau se sev
ere injuries.
● Assume the proper sitting position before
your trip and rem
ain in it throughout. This al-
so applies to the other occupants.
● Always keep hands, fingers, feet and other
part
s of the body away from the operating ra-
dius and the adjustment of seats. Heated seats*

The seat heating should not be engaged in
any of the following conditions:
● The seat is unoccupied.
● The seat has a covering.
● There is a child seat installed in the seat.
● The seat cushion is wet or damp.
● The indoor or outdoor temperature is great-

Adjusting the heating output
Press the button or repeatedly until the
desired temperature is reached.
Deactivating
Press the button or until all the warning
lamps switch off. WARNING
Children and people who cannot perceive
pain or t emper
ature because of medications,
paralysis or chronic diseases (e.g. diabetes)
or have a limited perception of these, may
suffer burns to the back, buttocks or legs
when using seat heating, an occurrence that
may entail a very lengthy recovery period or
from which it may not be possible to recover
fully. Seek medical advice if you have doubts
regarding your health.
● People with limited pain and temperature
thresho
lds must never use seat heating.
● If an abnormality in the device's tempera-
ture c
ontrol is detected, have it checked by a
specialist workshop. 156
Driver assistance systems
●
Your s peed and driv
ing style must always
be adjusted to visibility, weather, and traffic
conditions.
● The Eco profile is not recommended when
to
wing a vehicle. Kick-down
The kick-down feature allows maximum ac-
cel
er
ation to be reached.
If the eco* ››› page 226 mode has been se-
lected in SEAT Drive Profile*, and the acceler-
ator is pressed beyond a hard point, the en-
gine power is automatically controlled to give
your vehicle maximum acceleration. WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slip-
pery or w
et, the kick-down feature could
cause the driving wheels to spin, which could
result in skidding. Fatigue detection (break rec-

Safety Introduction
The Fatigue detection informs the driver
when their driv
in
g beh
aviour shows signs of
fatigue. WARNING
Do not let the comfort afforded by the Fatigue
detection sy s
tem tempt you into taking any
risks when driving. Take regular breaks, suffi-
cient in length when making long journeys.
● The driver always assumes the responsibil-
ity of driv
ing to their full capacity.
● Never drive if you are tired.
● The system does not detect the tiredness of
the driver in al
l circumstances. Consult the in-
formation in the section ››› page 228, System
limitations. ●
In some sit uation
s, the system may incor-
rectly interpret an intended driving manoeu-
vre as driver tiredness.
● No warning is given in the event of the ef-
fect c
alled microsleep!
● Please observe the indications on the in-
strument p
anel and act as is necessary. Note
● Fatigue det ection h
as been developed for
driving on motorways and well paved roads
only.
● If there is a fault in the system, have it
check
ed by a specialised workshop. Function and operation

Wheel bolts The design of wheel bolts is matched to the
rims. If diff
er
ent wheel rims are fitted, the
correct wheel bolts with the right length and
correctly shaped bolt heads must be used.
This ensures that wheels are fitted securely
and that the brake system functions correctly.
In certain circumstances, you should not use
wheel bolts from a different vehicle, even if it
is the same model ››› page 247. WARNING
If the wheel bolts are not tightened correctly,
the wheel c ou
ld become loose while driving.
Risk of accident.
● The wheel bolts must be clean and turn
eas
ily. Never apply grease or oil to them.
● Use only wheel bolts which belong to the
wheel.
● If the pr
escribed torque of the wheel bolts
is t
oo low, they could loosen whilst the vehi-
cle is in motion. Risk of accident! If the tight-
ening torque is too high, the wheel bolts and
threads can be damaged. CAUTION
The prescribed tightening torque for wheel
bolt s
for steel and alloy wheels is 120 Nm. Tyre monitoring indicator*

on. The tyre monitoring system compares wheel
r
ev
o
lutions alongside the wheel diameter of
each wheel, with help from the ESC. If the di-
ameter of a wheel changes, the tyre monitor-
ing indicator lights up . The wheel diame-
ter changes when:
● Tyre pressure is insufficient.
● The tyre structure is damaged.
● The vehicle is unbalanced because of a
load.
● The wheel
s of one axle are under more
pres
sure (for example, driving with a trailer or
on steep slopes).
● The vehicle is fitted with snow chains.
● The temporary spare wheel is fitted.
● The wheel on one axle is changed. Tyre pressure adjustment
After modif
ying tyre pressure or changing any
wheels, the new tyre pressure must be stored
in the Easy Connect system with the but-
t on and the S
ET
TINGS function button

page 34.
In vehicles without a radio, press and hold
down the button ››› Fig. 234, with the
ignition on, until an acoustic signal is heard.
If the wheels are under excessive load (for ex-
ample, driving with a trailer or heavy load),
the tyre pressure must be increased to the
recommended value for a full load (see the
sticker on the back of the left front door
frame). If the tyre monitor system button is
pressed down, the new tyre pressures are
confirmed.
The tyre pressure control lamp lights up
If the tyre pressure of a wheel is much lower
than the value set by the driver, then the tyre
pressure control lamp ››› will light up.
WARNING
● When the tyr e pr
essure control lamp lights
up, reduce speed immediately and avoid any
sudden turning or braking manoeuvre. Stop
when possible, and check the tyre pressure
and status.
● The driver is responsible for maintaining
correct
tyre pressures. For this reason, tyre
pressure must be regularly checked. 278
