The remote control key can
● Lock and unlock the vehicle
● Unlock or open the rear lid.
The remot e c
ontrol transmitter and the bat-
teries are integrated in the key. The receiver
is inside the vehicle. The remote control key
has a maximum range of 30 metres. The
range is reduced as the batteries start to lose
power.
The key includes a foldaway part that can be
used to manually lock or unlock the vehicle
and to start the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or the receiver is re-
paired or changed, the remote control key
must be adapted by an authorised SEAT deal-
er. Only then can the remote control key be
used again. Note
● The remot e c
ontrol is automatically deacti-
vated when the ignition is switched on. ●
The remot e c
ontrol function may be tempo-
rarily limited by interference from other
transmitters near the vehicle that operate on
the same frequency (e.g. mobile phone, tele-
vision transmitter).
● If the central locking system or the anti-
theft a
larm only responds to the remote con-
trol at a distance of less than 3 metres, then
the battery must be replaced ››› page 110.
