Operation
WARNING
Failure to correctly estimate the distance of
the v ehic
le behind could lead to serious acci-
dent.
● Rear-view convex or aspheric mirrors in-
cre
ase the field of vision, however objects ap-
pear smaller and further away in the mirrors.
● The use of these mirrors to estimate the
dist
ance to the next vehicle when changing
lane is imprecise and could result in serious
accident.
● If possible, use the rear vision mirror to es-
timate di
stances to vehicles behind you or in
other circumstances.
● Make sure that the rear visibility is ade-
quate. CAUTION
● Bef or

e entering a car wash, always ensure
that the exterior mirrors are correctly folded
in.
● Electrically-folding exterior mirrors should
not be fo
lded and unfolded mechanically as
this may damage the electrical operation. For the sake of the environment
The exterior mirror heating should be switch-
ed off when it i

s no longer needed. Other-
wise, it is an unnecessary fuel waste. Note
● The ext erior mirr

or heating initially heats
up with a high power, after two minutes the
heat will depend upon the ambient tempera-
ture.
● In the event of a fault, the electric exterior
mirrors
can be adjusted manually by pressing
the edge of the mirror surface. Seats and head restraints

● Adjus t

the front seats only when the vehi-
cle is stationary. Failure to follow this instruc-
tion could result in an accident.
● Be careful when adjusting the seat height.
Carel
ess or uncontrolled adjustment can
cause injuries.
● The front seat backrests must not be re-
clined for driv
ing. Otherwise, seat belts and
the airbag system might not protect as they
should in the case of an accident, increasing
risk of injury. 142

Seats and head restraints
Initialising the seat position memory
The po s
ition memor
y system must be restar-
ted if, for example, the driver seat has been
changed.
Restarting deletes all memories and assign-
ments for the seat with position memory. The
memory buttons can then be reprogrammed
and the vehicle keys re-assigned.
● Open the driver door and do not get into
the vehic
le.
● Operating the seat settings from outside
the vehic
le.
● Move the angle of the seat backrest com-
plet
ely forwards.
● Release the control to set the angle and
then pres
s again until an audible warning is
heard. Note
The front passenger side exterior mirror auto-
matic a

lly changes from the position stored
for reversing as soon as the vehicle moves
forward at a speed of at least 15 km/h

Operation
Note
● Alw a
ys turn off the anti-theft alarm system
before connecting or disconnecting a trailer
››› page 119. Otherwise, the tilt sensor may
erroneously activate the alarm.
● Never use a trailer with a new engine (for
the first
1,000 km or 600 miles) ››› page 247.
● At SEAT, we recommend folding in the tow
hitch b
all when a trailer is not being used. In
case of a rear collision, the damage caused to
the vehicle with the extended tow hitch ball
could be more extensive.
● In some models, a tow hitch is necessary
for to
wing vehicles. For this reason, you
should store the tow hitch in the vehicle at all
times. Technical requirements
If the car is supplied with a
fact
or
y-fitted tow-
ing bracket it will already have the necessary
technical modifications and meet the statuto-
ry requirements for towing a trailer.
Only use an approved tow hitch for the gross
trailer weight rating. The tow hitch must be
suitable for both the vehicle and trailer and
must be securely fitted to the vehicle chassis.
Only use a tow hitch with a removable ball
joint. Always check and take into account the
tow hitch manufacturer's instructions. Never
fit a trailer tow hitch “that distributes the
load” or “balances the load”. Bumper mounted tow hitch
Never fit a t

ow hitch or its attachments to the
bumper. A tow hitch should never interfere
with the bumper performance. Do not modify
the exhaust system and brake system. Regu-
larly check the tow hitch to ensure it is firmly
fitted.
Engine cooling system
Driving with a trailer increases the load on
the engine and cooling system. The cooling
system should always have sufficient coolant
and to be able to cope with the vehicle and
trailer.
Electric trailer brake
If the trailer has its own braking system,
please note the relevant legal requirements.
The trailer braking system should never be
connected to the vehicle braking system.
Trailer cable
Always use a cable between the vehicle and
the trailer ››› page 240.
Trailer rear lights
The rear lights of a trailer must fulfil the cor-
responding standards ››› page 240.
Never connect the trailer's rear lights directly
to the vehicle electric system. In case of any
doubt about the electrical connection of the trailer, ask a specialised workshop. SEAT rec-
ommends
visiting a technical service.
Wing mirrors
When the field of vision behind the trailer
cannot be seen using the standard wing mir-
rors of the towing vehicle, additional wing
mirrors are required according to the legal re-
quirements of each country. The wing mirrors
must be fitted before driving and must pro-
vide a sufficient field of vision behind.
Trailer electricity consumption
Never exceed the specifications:
DevicesMaximum power
Side lights and rear lights50 Watts
Turn signal (each side)54 Watts
Brake lights (total)84 Watts
Reversing lights (total)42 Watts
Rear fog light42 Watts WARNING
If the tow hitch is badly fitted or unsuitable,
the trai l

er may separate from the vehicle
causing an accident with serious consequen-
ces. 238
