This manual contains important information about the operation of the
vehicle, both for the driver and the passengers. The other sections of the

Safety equipment
The safety equipment listed here are part of the vehicle's
passenger restraint system. They work together to help
reduce the risk of injury in a wide variety of accident situa-
tions.
Your safety and the safety of your passengers should not be left to chance. In
the event of an accident, the safety features incorporated in your vehicle are
capable of reducing the risk of injury. These are just a few of the safety
features in your SEAT:
•
Three-point seat belts optimised for all seats
•
Belt force limiters for the seats
•
Belt tension devices for the front seat belts
•
Front airbags
•
Side airbags in the front and rear seat backrests*
•
Head-protection airbags*
•
Knee airbag for left-hand drive only
•
ISOFIX anchor points* for ISOFIX child safety seats on the outer rear seats
•
Height-adjustable head restraints
•
Adjustable steering column
These individual safety features are harmonised to provide you and your
passengers with the best possible protection in case of an accident. However,
they can only be effective if you and your passengers sit in the correct posi-
tion and adjust and use the safety equipment properly.
