››› in Safety instructions on page 91Securing child seats with “ISOFIX” and Top Tether*
Child seats can be secured quickly, easily
and s
af
ely
on the rear outer seats with the
“ISOFIX” and Top Tether* system.
Two “ISOFIX” retaining rings are fitted on
each rear seat. In some vehicles, the rings
are secured to the seat frame and, in others,
they are secured to the rear floor. The “ISO- FIX” rings are located between the rear seat
back
rest and the seat cushioning ››› Fig. 32.
The Top Tether* rings are located on the rear
part of the backrests of the rear seats (be-
hind the seat backrest or in the boot)
››› Fig. 33. To understand the compatibility of the "ISO-
FIX" syst
ems in the vehicle, consult the table
below.
The body weight permitted and information
regarding sizes A to F is indicated on the la-
bel on child seats with “ universal” or “semi-
universal” certification. 26
The essentials
Removing the cover from the selector lever
● Apply the handbrake › ›
› to ensure that
the c ar doe
s
not move.
● Carefully pull the corners of the selector
lever boot
and twist it upwards above the lev-
er handle.
Releasing the selector lever
● Using a screwdriver, press and hold the yel-
low un
locking tab sideways ››› Fig. 56. ●
Pres
s the interlock button on the selector
lever and move the selector lever to posi-
tion N.
● After carrying out the manual release, at-
tach the sel
ector lever boot on the gearbox
console again.
If the power supply should ever fail (e.g. dis-
charged battery) and the vehicle has to be
pushed or towed, the selector lever must first be moved to position N, after oper
ating the
manual release mechanism. WARNING
The selector lever may be moved out of posi-
tion P only when the h
andbrake is firmly ap-
plied. If this does not work, secure the vehi-
cle with the brake pedal. On a slope the vehi-
cle could otherwise start to move inadver-
tently after shifting the selector lever out of
position P - accident risk! 50
Transporting children safely
The child seat has two rigid attachment clips,
c al
l
ed connectors. These connectors are fit-
ted into the ISOFIX attachment rings found
between the seat cushion and the backrest of
the vehicle's back seat (on the sides). ISOFIX
attachment systems are used mainly in Eu-
rope ›››
page 26. If necessary, ISOFIX at-
tachment may have to be supplemented with
a Top Tether belt or a support bracket.
● Automatic three-point seat belt . Whenever
po
ssible, it is preferable to attach the child
seats with the ISOFIX system rather than at-
taching them with an automatic three-point
seat belt ›››
page 25.
Additional attachment:
● Top Tether : The Top Tether belt is guided
ov
er the back of the rear seat and attached to
an anchor point with a hook. Anchor points
are located at the back of the rear seat back-
rest on the boot side ›››
page 29
. The
rings for retaining the Top Tether belt are
marked with an anchor symbol.
● Support bracket : Some chi
ld seats rest on
the floor of the vehicle with a support brack-
et. The support bracket prevents the child
seat from tipping forward in the event of im-
pact. Child seats fitted with a support bracket
should only be used in the passenger seat
and side rear seats ››› . For the assembly of
thi s
type of
seat you should also consult the
list of approved vehicles for this assembly, available in the instructions for child restraint
syst
ems.
Recommended systems for attaching child
seats
SEAT recommends attaching child seats as
follows:
● Baby carriers or child seats in the opposite
direction of tr
avel: ISOFIX and support brack-
et or iSize.
● Child seats in the direction of travel: ISO-
FIX and T
op Tether. WARNING
Incorrect use of the support bracket can
cau se seriou
s or fatal injury.
● Make sure the support bracket is correctly
and safely
installed. 93

Operation
It does not matter where you carry the key, for
in s
t
ance whether it is in your jacket pocket or
in a briefcase.
Once the doors have been locked, they can-
not be opened again immediately. This will
enable you to check that the doors are prop-
erly closed.
If you wish, when unlocking, you can unlock
only the corresponding door or the entire ve-
hicle. The necessary adjustments can be per-
formed in vehicles with a driver information
system ›››
page 33.
General information
If a valid key is in the proximity of the car,
››› Fig. 131 the Keyless Access locking and
starting system gives the key entry as soon
as one of the sensor surfaces on the door
handles is touched or the softtouch/handle
on the rear lid is operated. The following fea-
tures are then available without having to
use the vehicle key actively:
● Keyless-Entry: unloc
king the vehicle using
the handles of the front doors or the soft-
touch/handle on the rear lid.
● Keyless-Exit: lockin
g the vehicle using the
sensor of the driver or passenger door han-
dle.
● Easy Open: opening the re
ar lid moving one
foot below the rear bumper. ●
Pres
s & Drive: keyless starting of the en-
gine with the starter button ››› page 181.
The central locking and locking systems oper-
ate in the same way as a normal locking and
unlocking system. Only the controls change.
Unlocking the vehicle is confirmed with a
double flash of the indicator lights; locking
by a single flash.
If the vehicle is locked and then all doors and
the rear lid are closed leaving the last key
used inside the vehicle and none outside,
the vehicle will not lock immediately. All the
vehicle's indicator lights will flash four times.
The vehicle will lock after a few seconds if
you do not open any door or the rear lid.
The vehicle will lock again after a few sec-
onds if you unlock the vehicle but fail to open
any door or boot hatch.
Unlocking and opening the doors (Keyless-
Entry)
● Grip one of the front door handles. In doing
this, the sensor s
urface ››› Fig. 132 A (arrow)
on the h andl
e i
s touched and the vehicle un-
locks.
● Open the door.
On vehic
les with selective opening or info-
tainment system configuration, pulling the
door handle twice will unlock all doors. On vehicles without a “Safe” security sys-
tem: shutting and loc
king doors (Keyless-Ex-
it)
● Switch the ignition off.
● Close the driver's door.
● Touch (once) the locking sensor surface B (arrow) on one of the front door handles. The
door th
at
i
s used must be closed.
On vehicles with a “Safe” security system:
shutting and locking doors (Keyless-Exit)
● Switch the ignition off.
● Close the driver's door.
● Touch (once) the sensor surface B (arrow)
on one of the fr
ont
door handles. The vehicle
locks with the “Safe” ››› page 133 system.
The door that is used must be closed.
● Touch (twice) the sensor surface B (arrow)
of one of
the fr
ont door handles to lock the
vehicle without activating the “Safe” security
system ››› page 133.
Unlocking and locking the boot hatch
When the vehicle is locked, the rear lid auto-
matically unlocks on opening if there is a val-
id vehicle key in the proximity ››› Fig. 131 .
Open or close the rear lid normally.
After closing, the hatch locks automatically. If
the complete vehicle is unlocked, the rear lid
will not lock automatically after closing it.

Opening and closing
Rear lid with sensor-controlled open-
in g/c
lo
sing (Easy Open)
If there is a valid vehicle key in the proximity
››› Fig. 131 of the rear lid, it is possible to
unlock and open or close it moving one foot
in the area of the sensors ››› Fig. 131 loca-
ted under the rear bumper.
● Switch the ignition off.
● Stand in front of the rear bumper, in the
middle.
● W
ith a brisk movement, bring your foot and
lower l
eg as close as you can to the bumper.
The lower part of the leg needs to be close to
the upper sensor area and your foot to the
lower sensor area ››› Fig. 131 1 .
● Quickly remove your foot and lower leg
fr om the sen
sor ar
eas ››› Fig. 131 2 . The
r e
ar lid w
ill be automatically opened.
● If the rear lid fails to open, repeat the pro-
cedure af
ter a few seconds.
The third brake light flashes once to show the
boot has opened with the Easy Open func-
tion.
The rear lid can be closed with another foot
movement similar to the opening one (provi-
ded a valid vehicle key is in the proximity of
the rear lid).
When closed, the rear lid automatically locks
if the vehicle has been locked beforehand
and there is no valid key inside. While the rear lid is in motion (either opening
or clos
ing), it can be stopped with another
foot movement similar to the opening one
(provided a valid vehicle key is in the proxim-
ity of the rear lid).
The Easy Open feature is not available or only
has limited availability in the following situa-
tions (examples):
● If the rear bumper is very dirty.
● If the rear bumper is wet with salt water,
e.g. aft
er having driven on gritted roads.
● If the electrical unlocking tow hitch is not
cov
ered.
● If the vehicle has been equipped at a later
time with a to
w bracket.
In the event of heavy rain, the Easy Open fea-
ture may take a little longer to open the boot
or may deactivate automatically, to avoid the
boot opening by accident, e.g. because of
the running water.
The Easy Open function can be connected
and disconnected permanently in the info-
tainment system by pressing the button
and the S

What happens when locking the vehicle with
a second key
If there is a vehicle key inside the vehicle and
it is locked from the outside with a second
vehicle key, the key inside the vehicle is blocked for engine ignition
›››
page 181. In
order to enable engine ignition, the button
on the key inside the vehicle needs to be
pressed.
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 an 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
butt
on on the key.
● OR: if the boot is opened.
● OR: if
the vehicle is unlocked manually with
the key
.
