WARNING
•
Never leave children or disabled persons in the vehicle; in case of emer-
gency they may not be able to leave the vehicle or look after themselves.
•
Always take you car keys with you when you leave the vehicle. Misuse
of the keys, for example, by children, may result in serious damage and
accident.
− The engine may accidentally be started and be out of control.
− If the ignition is switched on, the electric equipment could be acti-
vated with risk of injury, for example, in the electric windows.
− The doors can be locked using the remote control key. This could
result in people being trapped in the vehicle in an emergency.

•
Never remove the key from the ignition if the vehicle is in motion. Risk
of accident. The steering lock could engage suddenly, and you would not be
able to steer the vehicle.
Note
•
An Authorised SEAT Service Centre can programme the individual
opening of doors. In this case, when the unlock button
control is pressed once, only the driver's door is unlocked ⇒ page 90. When
the button is pressed once more, all doors and the tailgate will be unlocked.
Seat Service will be happy to provide more information on the activation of
this function.
•
The remote control transmitter and the batteries are integrated in the
remote control. The receiver is in the interior of the vehicle. Obstacles
between the remote control and the vehicle, bad weather conditions and
discharged batteries can considerably reduce the range of the remote control.
•
The remote control only locks and unlocks the vehicle when it is used
within range.
•
The vehicle will be locked again automatically if you do not open one of
the doors or the tailgate 30 seconds after unlocking the car. This function
prevents the vehicle from remaining unlocked if the unlocking button is
pressed by mistake.
•
If it is not possible to open or close the vehicle using the remote control,
this should be re-synchronised ⇒ page 96 or change the battery ⇒ page 96.
•
The working of the remote control may be momentarily affected if there is
transmitter using the same waveband (e.g. radiotelephone, mobile tele-
phone, etc) in the vicinity of the vehicle.
