should have the fault repaired at a SEAT
Official Service or specialised workshop.
The vehicle interior monitoring of the an-
●
ti-theft alarm* system will only function as

Spare key
To obtain a spare key and other vehicle keys,

work if it does not contain a microchip or the
microchip has not been encoded. This is also
true for keys which are specially cut for the
