Steering column controls* General information The steering column incorporates multifunc-
tional modules from which the audio and tel-
ephone functions of the vehicle can be con-
trolled.
There are two versions of the multifunction
module:
●
Audio version , to control the available au-
dio functions from the steering wheel.
● Audio + Telephone version , to control the
available audio functions and the telephone
system from the steering wheel.
Both versions can be used to control the au-
dio system (Radio, Audio CD, MP3 CD,
iPod 1)
/PND 1)
).
The PND (portable navigation device) repro-
duces audio files through a micro SD card
and Bluetooth audio-streaming, and tracks
may be changed using the controls on the
steering column. 1)
If fitted in the vehicle.

In the following situations, the objects or
other vehicles shown in the navigation sys-
tem display appear to be further away or
closer than they really are: Pay special atten-
tion:
–On moving from a horizontal plane to a
slope.
– On moving from a slope to a horizontal
plane.
– If the vehicle is heavily loaded at the
rear.
– When the vehicle approaches objects
that are not on the ground surface or are
jutting out from it. These objects may al-
so be outside the camera's angle of vi-
sion when reversing. Note
It is important to take great care and pay spe-
cial attention if you are not yet familiar with
the system. Instructions for use

On the rear bumper: location of the
rear assist camera A camera on the rear bumper aids the driver
during reverse parking or manoeuvring
››› Fig. 143 . The picture on the camera is dis-
p l
ayed together with orientation lines projec-
ted by the system on the display on the left of
the interior rear view mirror. The bottom of
the screen displays part of the bumper corre-
sponding to the registration plate area that
will be used as reference by the driver.
Necessary conditions for parking and
manoeuvring with the
The system should not be used in the follow-
ing cases:
● If the image displayed is not very reliable or
is distorted, for example low visibility or dirty
lens. ●
If the area behind the vehicle is not dis-
played very clearly or is incomplete.
● If the vehicle is heavily loaded at the rear.
● If the position and installation angle of the
camera have been changed, e.g. after a rear-
end collision. Have the system checked by a
specialised workshop.
Familiarising yourself with the system
To familiarise yourself with the system, the
orientation lines and their function, SEAT rec-
ommends practising parking and manoeu-
vring with the rear assist in a place without
too much traffic or in a car park when there
are good weather and visibility conditions.
Cleaning the camera lens
Keep the camera lens clean and clear of snow
and ice:
● Moisten the lens using a normal alcohol-
based glass cleaning product and clean the
lens with a dry cloth.
● Remove snow using a small brush.
● Use de-icing spray to remove any ice. CAUTION
● Never use abrasive cleaning products to
clean the camera lens.
● Do not use hot or warm water to remove ice
or snow from the camera lens. Doing so could
damage the camera. 145

Operation
●
Periodic cleaning of the sensors, take care
not to damage or scratch them. When clean-
ing with high pressure washers or steam
cleaners, the sensors should be sprayed for
only a very short period and from a distance
of more than 10 cm.
● If the licence plate (especially the front
one) is bent in such a way that it noticeably
juts out from the bumper, false alarms may
sound for the area in front of the vehicle. Rear parking aid with navigator view
Fig. 145
Parking aid view on the navigation
screen. When the parking aid system has been acti-
vated, the navigation view screen is also si-
multaneously activated (if one of the doors or
the rear lid is open, it must be closed before
the on-screen information can be viewed).
The distance of separation from the obstacle
can be estimated
››› Fig. 145 with the help of the segments around the vehicle. The white
segments represent obstacles located be-
tween 30 cm and 160 cm from the vehicle’s
rear. As the vehicle approaches an obstacle,
the segments are displayed closer to the ve-
hicle. The red segments represent obstacles
located at less than 30 cm from the front
bumper. At this point the driver should not
reverse any further.
Front parking aid Description
The acoustic parking aid system measures
the distance between the vehicle and any
possible obstacle using 8 ultrasonic sensors
(4 of which are located on the rear bumper
and 4 of which are located on the front
bumper).
The measuring range of the sensors starts
approximately and depending on the nature
of the obstacle
at a distance of:
● side of the front bumper: 0.6 m
● middle of the front bumper: 1.2 m
● side of the rear bumper: 0.6 m
● middle of the rear bumper: 1.6 m
Activation
The system may be activated in the following
ways: ●
Engage the reverse gear (a brief, sharp
acoustic signal confirms activation and the
correct operation of the system) or
● Push the central console button (a brief
confirmation signal will sound and the but-
ton’s LED will light up).
Disconnection
The system may be deactivated in the follow-
ing ways:
● Drive forwards at more than approx.
10 km/h (6 mph) or
● Press the button, or
● Switch the ignition off.
Manoeuvres
The distance warning will begin as soon as
an obstacle is detected in the system's field
of detection (front and rear). The frequency of
the bleeps emitted by the system will in-
crease rapidly as the vehicle approaches the
obstacle. Two speakers, one in the front and
one in the rear, indicate the location of the
obstacle ( front and rear, respectively).
After a distance lower than approximately 30
cm, a continuous signal sounds (stop signal).
At this point the driver should halt the vehi-
cle.
Models with a factory-fitted towing bracket:
when the vehicle is less than 0.35 m away
the warning tone will sound continuously.
148
Driver assistance systems
The driver should then not reverse any fur-
ther.
The warning tone volume decreases by 30%
3 seconds after it is triggered if the detected
obstacle stays at a constant distance from
the vehicle.
Provided that it is not in continuous mode,
the tone on the parking aid system stops
when it detects a wall parallel to the vehicle.
Trailer towing
For vehicles factory-fitted with a towing bar,
the parking aid system will not be activated
by the engagement of the reverse gear when
pulling a trailer, as the trailer's electric con-
nector will be plugged into the vehicle.
Possible faults
If a continuous, sharp beep sounds for a few
seconds, there is a fault in the parking aid
system.
If the fault continues until the ignition is
turned off, the audible warning of the fault
will not be emitted every time the system is
reactivated (by engaging the reverse gear or
pressing the button). Thus, the system
ready indication will not sound either. Have
the fault repaired by technical services as
soon as possible.
If there is no ready signal or no acoustic
warning signal, then the parking aid loud- speaker is faulty and may not warn of obsta-
cles. To ensure that the system works proper-
ly, the sensors must be kept clean and free of
ice and snow.
CAUTION
● Please note that low obstacles detected by
the system may no longer be registered by
the sensors as the car moves closer, so the
system will not give any further warning. Cer-
tain kinds of obstacles, such as wire fences,
chains, thin posts or trailer draw bars, high
kerbs or painted railings, etc., may not al-
ways be detected by the system, so there is a
risk of damaging the vehicle in such cases.
● In some cases, obstacles with uniform
edges and bumps may not be detected imme-
diately by the system due to their geometry.
Take special care with this type of obstacle
(corners, rectangular objects, etc.), as they
can cause damage to the vehicle.
● Be especially careful when manoeuvring in-
to a corner between two perpendicular walls.
Pay special attention to the side distance
from the wall using the mirrors.
● The parking aid system does not replace
use of the mirrors for manoeuvres.
● External ultra-sonic sources (e.g. pneumat-
ic drills, construction machinery or other ve-
hicles equipped with PND) may interfere with
the operation of the system.
● Periodic cleaning of the sensors, take care
not to damage or scratch them. When clean-
ing with high pressure washers or steam cleaners, the sensors should be sprayed for
only a very short period and from a distance
of more than 10 cm.
