When changing down manually the selector lever can be moved into gears3
3, 2
2, and 1
1, but the gearbox will not change down until it is no longer
possible to over-rev the engine. K
Kick-down device
The kick-down device gives maximum acceleration. When the
accelerator pedal is pressed right down past the full throttle
position, depending on road speed and engine speed, the box
changes down into a lower gear. The shift into the next higher gear
then takes place as soon as the maximum specified engine speed
is reached.

buying accessories or carrying out technical
modifications, the advice of the Technical Service should be
considered.
• Approved accessories and original SEAT spare parts may be
obtained through the Technical Services who will also, naturally,
carry out the corresponding assembly in the required conditions.
• Appliances which have been retro–fitted and have a direct
influence on the driver’s control of the vehicle e.g. cruise control
system or electronically controlled shock absorber systems must
have the e e
1)symbol and be authorised for that vehicle.• Additionally connected electric consumers e.g. refrigerators,
horns, fans etc. which are not directly linked to the control of the
vehicle must carry the C CE
E
symbol
2).
• If technical modifications are to be made, our guidelines must be
observed. This is to ensure that no damage occurs to the vehicle,
the traffic and operating safety is retained and that the
modifications are permissible.
