The essentials
Driver information system Intr oduction With the ignition switched on, it is possible
t
o r
ead the different functions of the display
by scrolling through the menus.
In vehicles with multifunction steering wheel,
the multifunction display can only be operat-
ed with the steering wheel buttons.
The number of menus displayed on the in-
strument panel will vary according to the ve-
hicle electronics and equipment.
A specialised workshop will be able to pro-
gramme or modify additional functions, ac-
cording to the vehicle equipment. SEAT rec-
ommends visiting a SEAT Official Service.
Some menu options can only be read when
the vehicle is at a standstill.
As long as a priority 1 warning is displayed, it
will not be possible to read the menus. Some
warning messages can be confirmed and
made to disappear with the windscreen wiper
lever button or the multifunction steering
wheel button.
The information system also provides the fol-
lowing information and displays (depending
on the vehicle's equipment):

Operation
Convenience turn signals
F or the c
onvenience turn signals, move the
lever as far as possible upwards or down-
wards and release the lever. The turn signal
will flash three times.
The convenience turn signals are activated
and deactivated in the Easy Connect system
via the  key and the
Set
up function button
› ›

› page 108.
In vehicles that do not have the correspond-
ing menu, this function can be deactivated in
a specialised workshop. WARNING
Improper or lack of use of the turn signals, or
f or

getting to deactivate them can confuse
other road users. This could result in a seri-
ous accident.
● Always give warning when you are going to
ch
ange lane, overtake or when turning, acti-
vating the turn signal in good time.
● As soon as you have finished changing
lane, o
vertaking or turning, switch the turn
signal off. WARNING
Incorrect use of the headlights may cause ac-
c ident

s and serious injury, as the main beam
may distract or dazzle other drivers. Note
● If the c

onvenience turn signals are operat-
ing (three flashes) and the other convenience
turn signals are switched on, the active part
stops flashing and only flashes once in the
new part selected.
● The turn signal only works when the igni-
tion is
switched on. The hazard warning
lights also work when the ignition is switch-
ed off.
● If a trailer turn signal malfunctions, the
contr
ol lamp will stop flashing (trailer turn
signals) and the vehicle turn signal will flash
at double speed.
● The main beam he
adlights can only be
switched on if the dipped beam headlights
are already on.
● In cold or damp weather conditions, the
hea
dlights, tail lights and turn signals may
mist up inside temporarily. This is normal and
in no way effects the useful life of the vehicle
lighting system. Automatic dipped beam control

Driver assistance systems
Deactivating the Adaptive Cruise Con-
tr o
l ACC temporarily in certain situa-
tions In the following situations the Adaptive
C
rui

se Control (ACC) should be deactivated
due to the system's limitations ››› :
● When changing lanes, on tight bends and
r ou

ndabouts, in acceleration and decelera-
tion lanes on motorways or in sections with
road works to prevent involuntary accelera-
tion to reach the programmed speed.
● When going through a tunnel, as operation
c ou

ld be affected.
● On roads with several lanes, when other ve-
hicl
es are driving more slowly in the overtak-
ing lane. In this case, slower vehicles will be
overtaken on the right.
● In case of heavy rain, snow or spray, as the
vehic
le in front might not be detected proper-
ly or, in certain circumstances, might not be
detected at all. WARNING
If the ACC does not switch off in the situa-
tion s

described, serious accidents and inju-
ries may occur.
● Always switch off the ACC in critical situa-
tions. Note
If you do not switch off the ACC in the afore-
mentioned s it

uations, you may commit a le-
gal offence. Special driving situations

(C) Vehicle changing lanes. (D) One

le turning and another stationary. The adaptive cruise control (ACC) has certain
ph
y

sical limitations inherent in the system.
For example, certain reactions of the ACC, in
certain circumstances, may be unexpected or
come late from the driver's point of view. So
pay attention in order to intervene if necessa-
ry.
For example, the following traffic situations
call for the utmost attention:
Starting driving after a stopping phase (only
vehicles with automatic gearbox)
After a stopping phase the ACC may begin
driving automatically when the vehicle in
front drives off. »
