“Safe” status
The ashing frequency of the diode in the
door sill immediately conrms the process. Ini-
tially, the diode ashes in a fast sequence for a
brief period, then it stops for approximately 30
seconds and, lastly continues ashing slowly.
WARNING
Using the “Safe” security system negligently
or without paying due attention can cause
serious injuries.
●
Never leave anyone inside the vehicle when
you lock it with the key. When the “Safe” se-
curity system is active the doors cannot be
opened from the inside!
Troubleshooting
The control lamp remains on
The red LED on the driver’s door ashes at
short intervals and then stays on. There is a
fault in the locking system.
●
Contact a specialised workshop. CUPRA rec-
ommends visiting a CUPRA dealership for this
purpose.
