The following steps are necessary for the ac-  
tivation of SEAT CONNECT (including regis-  
tration):  
SEAT CONNECT portal  
SEAT CONNECT application  
To become a main user and thus prove own-  
ership of the vehicle, you need both of the ve-  
hicle’s physical keys. Ownership accredita-  
tion takes place in the vehicle during registra-  
tion or, if you already have a SEAT CONNECT  
user account, you must log in through the in-  
fotainment system and then go to User man-  
agement  
directly through the infotainment system in  
the User Management menu.  
S-PIN  
Place the SEAT CONNECT order and acti-  
vate it.  
The S-PIN is a sequence of several digits,  
which can be selected when completed the  
SEAT CONNECT registration.  
Add the vehicle to your user account.  
Prove ownership.  
Switch on the ignition and the infotainment  
system.  
When creating the S-PIN, avoid easy-to-  
guess number sequences and known dates  
of birth. You can change the S-PIN in the SEAT  
CONNECT user account in “Account set-  
tings”.  
Prove your identity. It is only necessary if  
you are to run SEAT CONNECT services rele-  
vant to security.  
In the infotainment system, register in SEAT  
CONNECT.

Identity accreditation (SEAT Ident)  
Identity accreditation must be done before  
you can use SEAT CONNECT services that  
are relevant to security, such as the “Remote  
Opening” service. Identity accreditation can  
be done in two ways:  
Follow-up services: ask all occupants  
The follow-up services need geographical  
and vehicle data to determine whether the  
vehicle is being used within defined speed  
ranges, where it has been parked or if it is be-  
ing used in an established geographical area.  
This information is displayed on the SEAT  
CONNECT portal and in the SEAT CONNECT  
app.  
Permanent transfer of the vehicle  
In person at the SEAT dealership.  
If another person has left you the vehicle for  
permanent use (for example, if you buy a  
used vehicle), SEAT CONNECT may already  
be activated and the previous user still has  
the possibility of accessing the data regis-  
tered through SEAT CONNECT and control  
certain functions of your vehicle.  
You can find more information about SEAT  
Ident on the SEAT CONNECT portal at  
Therefore, before moving off, ask all the vehi-  
cle occupants if they agree with the activa-  
ted services. If they do not, deactivate the  
service in question (if possible) or do not al-  
low the occupants to use the vehicle.  
Legal provisions  
In the infotainment system you can check if  
your vehicle is assigned to a person as the  
main user. In this case, you can register your-  
self as the main user of the vehicle and thus  
automatically delete the previous main user.  
Alternatively, through the infotainment sys-  
tem you can directly and permanently delete  
the previous user as the main user, as well as  
put the vehicle in offline mode and thus limit  
both the communication of your vehicle with  
During the use of SEAT CONNECT services,  
information is transferred and processed on-  
line through the vehicle. Such data can also  
provide (at least indirectly) information about  
the driver in question, for example, driving be-  
haviour and location. As a contracting party  
in the SEAT CONNECT contract with SEAT,  
S.A., you must ensure that when your vehicle  
is used by other drivers (for example, family or
