Instrument panel

Introduction

After switching the engine on with a 12-volt

battery that is heavily discharged or newly

changed some system settings (such as the

time, the date, the personalised comfort set-

tings and the programming) might be altered or

deleted. Check and correct these settings once

the battery is suciently charged.

WARNING

Any distraction may lead to an accident, with

the risk of injury.

●

Do not operate the instrument panel con-

trols when driving.

●

To reduce the risk of accident and injury,

only make adjustments to the instructions

on the instrument panel display and to the

instructions on the Infotainment system dis-

play when the vehicle is stationary.

WARNING

Fatigue detection can be activated or deacti-

the laws of physics and only works within the

limits of the system. The increased comfort

provided by the driver alert system should

not lead you to take any risks. On long

journeys, take regular and suciently long

breaks.

Operation

The driver alert system determines the driving

behaviour of the driver at the start of a journey

and then calculates the fatigue level. This is

constantly compared with the current driving

behaviour. If the system detects that the driver

is tired, an audible warning is given with a sound

and an optical warning is shown with a symbol

SEAT distinguishes between services with en-

gine oil change (e.g. Oil change service) and

services without engine oil change (e.g. Inspec-

tion).

●

In some situations, the system may misin-

terpret an intentional driving manoeuvre as

driver fatigue.

Now you can browse through the menu using

the keys on the multifunction steering wheel as

usual.

In vehicles with Services established by time

or mileage, the service intervals are already

pre-deﬁned.

●

There is no warning of the micro-sleep

phenomenon!

●

Please observe the indications on the in-

strument panel and act as is necessary.

Restart the service interval display

In vehicles with LongLife Service, the intervals

are determined individually. Thanks to techno-

logical progress, maintenance work has been

greatly reduced. The oil only needs to be

changed when the vehicle requires it. To calcu-

late this variation (max. 2 years), the vehicle's

conditions of use and individual driving styles

are considered. The advance warning ﬁrst ap-

pears 20 days before the date established

for the corresponding service. The kilometres

(miles) remaining until the next service are al-

ways rounded up to the nearest 100 km (miles)

and the time is given in complete days. The

current service message cannot be viewed until

500 km after the last service. Prior to this, only

lines are visible on the display.

Select the Servicemenu and follow the in-

structions on the screen of the instrument

panel.
