Route : The traffic bulletins received that affect the
calculated r out
e will be displayed. Dynamic route guidance
In order for dynamic rout
e guidance t

o func-
tion, Dynamic route must be activated in the
route options.
If a traffic report is received that affects the
route being travelled, an alternative route will
be searched for if the system calculates that
time can be saved.
If, on the other hand, the alternative route
does not save time, the route will continue
with the traffic jam. In both cases, an an-
nouncement will be made.
Shortly before reaching the announced traf-
fic jam, it is indicated again.
Avoiding a traffic jam by following the instruc-
tions of a traffic bulletin does not always save
time, for example, if alternative routes are
congested. The effectiveness of dynamic
navigation depends on the traffic bulletins
that are received.
The rest of the route that has to be travelled
can be manually excluded to force its recal-
culation

Start and driving
Note
After the engine is switched off the radiator
fan may run on for up to 10 minut es, e
ven if
the ignition is switched off. It is also possi-
ble that the fan turns itself on once more if
the coolant temperature increases due to
the heat accumulated in the engine com-
partment or due to its prolonged exposure
to solar radiation. Electronic immobilizer
The electronic immobiliser prevents unau-
thorised persons fr
om driving the v
ehicle
.
Inside the k

ey there is a chip that deactivates
the electronic immobiliser automatically
when the key is inserted into the ignition.
The electronic immobiliser will be activated
again automatically as soon as you pull the
key out of the ignition lock. For vehicles with
the “Keyless Access” system, the key has to
be outside the vehicle.
If the following message is shown on the in-
strument panel display: SAFE or Immobilis-
er active , it is not possible to start the vehi-
cle.
The engine can only be started using a genu-
ine SEAT key with its correct code. Note
A perfect operation of the vehicle is ensur-
ed if genuine SEAT keys are used. Emergency starting function
