Operation

LED on the power socket

Steady green
light:

The childproof lock is unlocked.
The socket is ready to operate.

Flashing green
light:

The ignition is switched off, but
there is enough power available

to continue supplying the socket

with current for a maximum of 10
minutes. If the connector is un-
plugged before this time elap-
ses, the socket is disconnected
and cannot be used again until
the ignition is switched on again.

Flashing red
light:

There is an anomaly, e.g. dis-

connection due to a current
surge or overheating.

Disconnection due to overheating

When the temperature exceeds a certain val-
ue, the 230 volt socket inverter is automati-
cally disconnected. The disconnection pre-
vents overheating when the power consump-
tion of the connected devices is excessive or
the ambient temperature is very high. The
230-volt power supply can be used once
again after a cooling time. First unplug the
connector of the connected device and then
plug it back in again. This prevents the elec-
trical device from being switched on again if
this is not wanted.

WARNING

The electrical system is under high voltage!

Do not spill liquids onto the socket.

Do not plug adapters or extension cords

into the 230 volt power socket. Otherwise,
the integrated child lock will be unlocked
and the power socket will operate.

Do not insert conductive objects (a knit-

ting needle, for example) into the 230 volt
power socket.

WARNING

The power socket works only when the igni-
tion is on. Improper use may cause serious
injury or even fire. Children should there-
fore not be left in the vehicle unattended if
the button is also left behind. Otherwise
there is a possibility that they may be in-
jured.

CAUTION

Always use the correct type of plugs to
avoid damaging the sockets.

CAUTION

230 volt power socket:

Do not leave devices or connectors
that are too heavy (e.g. a transformer)
hanging directly from the power sock-
et.

Do not connect neon lamps.

Only connect devices to the socket if
the device and socket voltage match.

The built-in overload disconnect func-
tion prevents any electrical devices
that require a high start-up current
from turning on. In this case, unplug the
electrical device's power supply and
re-try the connection after about 10
seconds.

Note

The use of electrical appliances with the

engine switched off will cause a battery
discharge.

Should the connected appliance over-

heat, immediately switch it off and discon-
nect it from the socket.

Before switching the ignition on or off, un-

plug the appliances from the USB ports to
protect them from any damage caused by
fluctuations in voltage.

Some appliances may not work properly

when connected to the 230 volt sockets
due to a lack of power (watts).

Air conditioning

Air conditioning

Heating, ventilation and
cooling

Introduction

Depending on the vehicle’s equipment, sever-
al systems may have been fitted:

The

manual air conditioning system

heats, cools and dehumidifies the air.

The

Climatronic

is an automatic air condi-

tioner that heats, cools and dehumidifies the
air.

With the Climatronic’s automatic mode it is
possible to automatically regulate the air
temperature, distribution and flow.

The air conditioning system is more effective
if the vehicle's interior is kept closed. When a
lot of heat builds up inside the vehicle, venti-
lation can speed up the cooling process.

To switch a specific function on, press the ap-
propriate button. Press the button again to
switch off the function.

The illuminated LEDs next to the buttons indi-
cate that the function is switched on.

In the air conditioning settings in the infotain-
ment system, the yellow function buttons in-

dicate that the function is switched on

›››

page 161

.

Refrigerated glove box

When the vent is open, cold air flows into the
glove box. If the inside of the vehicle is cooled
by the air conditioning system, the cold air
can be directed towards the inside of the
glove box.

Dust and pollen filter

The dust and pollen filter with its activated
charcoal cartridge serves as a barrier
against impurities in the air taken into the ve-
hicle interior.

The dust and pollen filter must be changed
regularly so that air conditioner performance
is not adversely affected.

If the filter loses efficiency prematurely due to
use in areas with very high levels of air pollu-
tion, the filter must be changed more fre-
quently than stated in the Service Schedule.

Economic use of the air conditioning

When the air conditioning is switched on, the
compressor consumes engine power and has
influence on fuel consumption.

The air conditioner operates most effectively
with the windows and the panoramic sliding
sunroof closed. However, if the vehicle has
heated up after standing in the sun for some

time, the air inside can be cooled more quick-
ly by opening the windows and the panoram-
ic sliding sunroof briefly.

Air conditioning according to seat occu-
pancy

In order to make the most efficient use possi-
ble of the air conditioning's energy consump-
tion, the air conditioning is adjusted accord-
ing to seat occupancy. When seat occupan-
cy recognition is activated, this is indicated
by the word



on the infotainment system

and on the air conditioning control panel
screen.

Valid for hybrid vehicles:

When a person oc-

cupies one of the seats and is wearing a seat
belt, the vehicle identifies this seat as occu-
pied when the drive system is switched on.

WARNING

Reduced visibility through the windows in-
creases the risk of serious accidents.

Always ensure that all windows are free

of ice and snow, and that they are not fog-
ged, so as to maintain good visibility of ev-
erything outside.

Only drive when you have good visibility.

Always ensure that you use the air condi-

tioning, heater or rear window heating to
maintain good visibility to the outside.

Never leave the air recirculation on for a

long period of time. If the cooling system is

»

157

Operation

switched off and air recirculation mode
switched on, the windows can mist over
very quickly, considerably limiting visibility.

Switch air recirculation mode off when it

is not required.

CAUTION

To replace the pollen filter, always visit a

service centre.

Switch the climate control or air condi-

tioner off if you think it may be broken. This
will avoid additional damage. Have the cli-
mate control or air conditioning checked
by a specialised workshop.

Repairs to the climate control or air con-

ditioning require specialist knowledge and
special tools. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT Official Service.

Note

When the cooling system is turned off, air

coming from the outside will not be dried.
To prevent fogging of the windows, SEAT
recommends leaving the cooling system
(compressor) turned on. To do this, press
the



button. The button lamp should

light up.

The maximum heat output required to de-

frost windows as quickly as possible is only
available when the engine has reached its
normal running temperature.

Keep the air intake slots in front of the

windscreen free of snow, ice and leaves to
ensure heating and cooling are not im-
paired, and to prevent the windows from
misting over.

The air from the vents flows through the

vehicle interior and is extracted by slots in

the luggage compartment designed for this
purpose. Therefore, you should avoid ob-
structing these slots with any kind of ob-
ject.

Do not smoke while air recirculation

mode is on, as smoke drawn into the air
conditioning system leaves residue on the
evaporator, producing a permanent un-
pleasant odour.

It is advisable to turn on the air condition-

ing at least once a month, to lubricate the
system gaskets and prevent leaks. If a de-
crease in the cooling capacity is detected,
a Technical Service should be consulted to
check the system.

When the engine is under extreme strain,

switch off the compressor for a moment.

WARNING

Stuffy or used air will increase fatigue and
reduce driver concentration possibly re-
sulting in a serious accident.

Never leave the fresh air fan turned off or

use the air recirculation for long periods of
time; the air in the vehicle interior will not
be refreshed.

If the cooling system is switched off and

air recirculation mode switched on, the
windows can mist over very quickly, con-
siderably limiting visibility.

CAUTION

Do not smoke when air recirculation is
switched on in vehicles with an air condi-
tioner. The smoke taken in could lie on the
cooling system vaporiser and on the acti-
vated charcoal cartridge of the dust and
pollen filter, leading to a permanently un-
pleasant smell.

Note

Climatronic: air recirculation mode is ac-

tivated to prevent exhaust gas or unpleas-
ant odours from entering the vehicle interi-
or when it is in reverse and while the auto-
matic windscreen wiper is working.

When the outside temperature is very

high, selecting manual air recirculation
mode for a short period refreshes the vehi-
cle interior more quickly.

If the fault continues, consult a specialised

workshop.

The windows are misted up

Windows mist up when they are cooler than
the ambient temperature and the air is very
damp. Cold air can absorb less moisture than

hot air, so the windows mist up more often in
cold weather.

The air vent in front of the windscreen

keeps it free of ice, snow and leaves, which
improves the performance of the heating and
cooling systems.

The air grooves located at the rear of the

luggage compartment must be kept clear to
allow the air to circulate through the vehicle
from front to back.

Water or water vapour under the vehicle

When the outside air is very humid and the
ambient temperature is high, condensation
may drip from the evaporator of the cooling
system, which can form a puddle under the
vehicle. This is completely normal and is no
indication of a leak.

If the outside air is very humid and the ambi-
ent temperature is low, the auxiliary heating
can evaporate the condensation. In this case,
steam may come out from under the vehicle.
This does not mean that the vehicle has bro-
ken down.

Air conditioning

Auxiliary heating and venti-
lation

Introduction

With the auxiliary heating and ventilation, it is
possible to heat the vehicle interior in winter
and ventilate it in summer. It can also be used
to demist the windscreen and remove ice or
even a thin layer of snow. The auxiliary heat-
ing is powered by fuel from the vehicle’s tank
and can even continue to operate when the
ignition is switched off. The auxiliary ventila-
tion is powered by the 12-volt vehicle battery.

The auxiliary heater can be switched on using
the fast heating button of the air conditioning
controls, with the remote control or by previ-
ously programming a departure time in the
auxiliary heater menu of the infotainment sys-
tem.

If the outside temperature is very high, the ve-
hicle interior can be ventilated with the en-
gine off using the auxiliary heater.

Auxiliary heating exhaust system

The exhaust gases generated by the auxiliary
heater are removed via an exhaust pipe fitted
underneath the vehicle. This exhaust pipe
must not be blocked by snow, mud or any-
thing else.

WARNING

The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes contain
carbon monoxide, an odourless and colour-
less toxic gas. Carbon monoxide can cause
people to lose consciousness. It can also
cause death.

Never switch on the auxiliary heater or

leave it running in enclosed spaces or
areas with no ventilation.

Never programme the auxiliary heater so

that it switches itself on and is running in an
enclosed space or an area with no ventila-
tion.

WARNING

The components of the auxiliary heater are
extremely hot and could cause a fire.

Always park your vehicle so that no part

of the exhaust system can come in contact
with easily flammable materials that might
be below the vehicle, such as dried grass.

CAUTION

Never place food, medicines or other tem-
perature-sensitive objects close to the air
vents. Food, medicines and other objects
sensitive to heat or cold may be damaged
or made unsuitable for use by the air com-
ing from the vents.

The auxiliary heating can be turned off im-

mediately with the on/off button.

To burn the remaining fuel in the auxiliary
heating, it continues to operate briefly once it
has been turned off manually or automatical-
ly.

Using the auxiliary heating as a supple-
mentary heater

If the engine has been started, the auxiliary
heating can continue to operate as a supple-
mentary heating system. The following condi-
tion must be met for this to happen:

The

Automatic supplementary heater

function can be switched on in the infotain-
ment system's air conditioning settings.

The outside temperature is lower than +5

°C (+41 °F).

The supplementary heating system switches
off again automatically after a while.

Note

Noises will be heard while the auxiliary

heater is running.

When the air humidity is high and the in-

side temperature low, condensation from
the heating and ventilating system may
evaporate when the auxiliary heater is
switched on. In this case, steam may be re-
leased from underneath the vehicle. This
does not mean that there is a vehicle mal-
function.

If the vehicle is tilted, e.g. if parked on a

slope, the operation of the auxiliary heater
may be restricted if the fuel tank level is
low (just above the reserve level).

If the auxiliary heater is used a number of

times for a long period of time, the 12-volt
battery will lose its charge. To recharge the
battery, the vehicle must be driven for a
number of kilometres from time to time. As
a guideline: the journey should last approx-
imately as long as the heater was connec-
ted.

At temperatures below +5 °C (+41 °F), the

auxiliary heater may switch itself on auto-
matically when the engine is switched on.
The auxiliary heater is switched off again
after a certain time.

While the vehicle is stopped, the auxiliary

heating can be switched on up to a maxi-
mum of three consecutive times in a row
with the maximum operating duration.

Programming the auxiliary heater

Before

programming it, check that the vehi-

cle's date and time are set correctly

›››

.

The auxiliary heater is programmed in the

Auxiliary heater

menu of the infotainment

system.

Set the operating duration of the auxiliary
heating

Open the

Auxiliary heater

menu.

Press the

Set

function button.

To set the operating time, press the

Oper-

ating duration

button.

The set operating duration is taken into ac-
count when the auxiliary heating is switched
on using the immediate heat button

or the

remote control.

The maximum duration of the auxiliary heat-
ing is 60 minutes.

Set the departure time

Activating this function only affects the heat-
ing or ventilation. The departure time must be
reactivated whenever the vehicle is started.

Open the

Auxiliary heater

menu.

Press the

Set

function button.

Select one of the memory spaces for a

De-

parture time

.

Air conditioning

Press the

Activate

function button.

Manual air conditioning:

The scheduled de-

parture time determines when the auxiliary
heating or ventilation will be switched off. The
start of the heating or ventilation process de-
pends on the programmed duration of opera-
tion.

Climatronic:

The vehicle uses the program-

med departure time to automatically calcu-
late the time at which the heating or ventila-
tion process should begin to attain the set
temperature.

Checking the programming

If a departure time is activated, the yellow
LED on the immediate heat button

lights up

on the Climatronic control panel, approxi-
mately ten seconds after the ignition is
switched off.

WARNING

Never programme the auxiliary heater so
that it switches itself on and is running in an
enclosed space or an area with no ventila-
tion. The auxiliary heater exhaust fumes
contain carbon monoxide, an odourless
and colourless toxic gas. Carbon monoxide
can cause people to lose consciousness. It
can also cause death.
