Never leave individuals locked in a closed
and locked vehicle. In case of emergency,
they may not be able to exit the vehicle by
themselves or get help.
Description

and the tank flap to be centrally locked and
unlocked:
•
From outside, using the vehicle key
•
From outside with the Keyless Access system

From inside, by pushing the central locking

.
Self-locking system to prevent involuntary
unlocking
It is an anti-theft system and prevents the un-
intentional unlocking of the vehicle. If the vehi-
cle is unlocked and none of the doors (includ-
ing the boot) are opened within 45 seconds, it
re-locks automatically.
Automatic locking (Auto Lock)
The vehicle locks automatically at over a speed
of approx. 15 km/h (9 mph). When the vehicle
is locked, the control lamp of the central
locking button lights up yellow.
Automatic unlocking (Auto Unlock)
If one of the following conditions is met, all
doors and the rear lid are unlocked automati-
cally:
•
The electronic parking brake is engaged and
the ignition is switched off.
•
EITHER:
the inside door handle is pulled.
This applies when driving at under 15 km/h (9
mph).
•
OR:
in the event of an accident and an airbag
has been triggered.
Automatic unlocking allows third parties to ac-
cess the interior of the vehicle to provide assis-
tance if necessary.
Turn signals
The turn signals will flash twice when the vehi-
cle is unlocked and once when the vehicle is
locked.
If it does not flash, this indicates that one of
the doors, the rear lid or the bonnet is not
closed correctly.
Note
•
Never leave any valuable items in the vehi-
cle unattended. Even a locked vehicle is not a
safe.
•
If the LED on the driver door sill lights
up for about 30 seconds when the vehicle
is locked, the central locking system or anti-
theft alarm is not working properly. You
should have the fault repaired at a special-
ised CUPRA dealer, SEAT Official Service or
specialised workshop.
•
The anti-theft alarm system’s interior
monitoring only works perfectly if the win-
dows are closed.
