WARNING  
NOTICE  
Data transmissions  
In very rare cases, a control unit may not  
function properly after an over-the-air up-  
date. Malfunctioning of a control unit and the  
vehicle can lead to serious accidents and fa-  
tal injuries.  
If special modifications have been made to  
vehicles outside the scope of SEAT's respon-  
sibility (for example, for emergency service  
vehicles or taxis), there is a risk that special  
functions (e.g. the taximeter) may no longer  
work properly after an over-the-air update.
