Operation
● When mor e att
ention i
s required by the
driver.
● When driving in a very sporty style.
● In adverse weather conditions, e.g. in case
of sno
w or heavy rain.
● When driving on roads in poor condition.
● In sections with roadworks.
● In city journeys. WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into Traf-
fic Jam As s
ist cannot defy the laws of phys-
ics; it only works within the limits of the sys-
tem. Accidents and severe injury may occur if
Traffic Jam Assist is used negligently or invol-
untarily. The system is not a replacement for
driver awareness.
● Adapt your speed and safe distance to the
vehicl
e in front of you at all times to suit the
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
● Do not use Traffic Jam Assist in city jour-
neys.
● Do not u
se Traffic Jam Assist if there is poor
vis
ibility, for example, in case of snow, ice,
rain or loose gravel, or on steep or slippery
sections or flooded roads.
● Do not use Traffic Jam Assist offroad or on
roa
ds where the surface is not firm. Traffic
Jam Assist has been designed for use on
paved roads only. ●
Traffic
Jam Assist does not react to people
or animals or vehicles crossing your path or
that approach you head-on down the same
lane.
● If Traffic Jam Assist does not reduce speed
sufficiently
, brake the vehicle immediately by
applying the pedal.
● If the vehicle continues to move when you
wish it
to stop after a driver intervention
prompt, brake the vehicle by applying the
pedal.
● If driver intervention is requested on the
da
sh panel display, immediately resume con-
trol of the vehicle.
● Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
to be re
ady to intervene in the steering at any
time. The driver is always responsible for
keeping the vehicle in its own lane.
● Always be prepared to take charge of driv-
ing (acc
elerating or braking) yourself. Note
● If T
raffic Jam Assist does not work as de-
scribed in this chapter, stop using it and con-
tact a specialised workshop.
● If the system is faulty, take it to a special-
ised work
shop and have it checked. Emergency Assist
D e
s
cription and operation Emergency Assist detects whether there is in-
activity
b
y the driver and can automatically
keep the car within the lane and stop it alto-
gether if necessary. This way the system can
actively help avoid an accident.
Emergency Assist is an additional function of
Lane Assist ››› page 224 and combines Lane
Assist functions with Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) ›››
page 214. Therefore, it is essential
that you read these two chapters carefully
and note the limitations of the systems and
the information about them.
Operation of Emergency Assist
Emergency Assist detects when the driver
ceases to perform any activity and repeatedly
requests that he/she regain active control of
the vehicle, through the use of optical and
acoustic warnings and by applying the
brakes.
If the driver continues to do nothing, the sys-
tem automatically takes over the accelerator,
brakes and steering in order to brake the ve-
hicle and keep it in its lane ››› . When the
Emer g
ency
Assist is actively adjusting, the
hazard warning lights come on ›››
page 145
and the vehicle makes slight zigzag move-
ments in the lane in order to warn other driv-
ers.
228
Driver assistance systems
If the remaining braking distance is suffi-
c ient, if
nec
essary the system slows down the
vehicle until it stops completely and auto-
matically switches on the electronic parking
brake ››› page 183.
Switching the Emergency Assist on and off
The Emergency Assist is switched on auto-
matically when the Lane Assist is switched on
››› page 224.
Technical requirements for using the Emer-
gency Assist
● The adaptive cruise control (ACC) must be
switc
hed on ››› page 214.
● The Lane Assist must be switched on
›››
page 224.
● The selector lever must be in the D/S posi-
tion or in the
Tiptronic selector gate.
● The system must have detected a lane sep-
aration line on both side
s of the vehicle
››› Fig. 218.
The following conditions may cause the
Emergency Assist not to react or to switch off
automatically:
● If the driver accelerates, brakes or moves
the steerin
g wheel.
● If any of the conditions mentioned in
›››
page 229, Technical requirements for us-
ing the Emergency Assist are not fulfilled.●
If any
of the conditions required for opera-
tion of the Lane Assist are not met
››› page 224.
● If any of the conditions necessary for the
adaptiv
e cruise control (ACC) to work are no
longer fulfilled ››› page 214. WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into the
Emerg ency
Assist cannot overcome the limits
imposed by the laws of physics; it only works
within the limits of the system. The driver is
responsible for driving the vehicle.
● Adapt your speed and safe distance to the
vehicl
e in front of you at all times to suit the
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
● Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
to be re
ady to intervene in the steering at any
time.
● The Emergency Assist alone cannot always
avoid acc
idents or serious injuries.
● If the operation of the Emergency Assist is
impaired, f
or example if the radar sensor of
the adaptive cruise control (ACC) or the Lane
Assist camera are covered or have lost their
settings, the system may intervene inoppor-
tunely in braking or in steering.
● The Emergency Assist does not react to
people or anim
al or vehicles crossing your
path or which approach you head-on in the
same lane. WARNING
If the Emergency Assist Intervenes inoppor-
tu nely
, serious accidents and injuries may oc-
cur.
● If the Emergency Assist does not operate
properly, sw
itch off the Lane Assist
››› page 224. Doing so will also switch off the
Emergency Assist.
● Have the system checked by a specialised
workshop
. SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT
dealership for this. Note
● Autom atic
interventions by the Emergency
Assist on the brakes may be interrupted by
pressing the accelerator or brake or by mov-
ing the wheel.
● Hazard warning lights that come on auto-
matica
lly can be switched off by pressing the
accelerator or the break, moving the steering
wheel or pressing the hazard warning light
switch.
● If this occurs, the Emergency Assist may
deceler
ate the vehicle until it comes to a com-
plete stop.
● When the Emergency Assist is activated, it
is on
ly available again after the ignition has
been switched off and back on again. 229

Safety Operating and safety warnings
WARNING
● The Re ar As
sist does not make it possible
to precisely calculate the distance from ob-
stacles (people, vehicles, etc.) and nor can it
overcome the system's own limits, hence us-
ing it may cause serious accidents and inju-
ries if used negligently or without due care.
The driver should be aware of his/her sur-
roundings at all times to ensure safe driving.
● The camera lens expands and distorts the
field of
vision and displays the objects on the
screen in a different, vague manner. The per-
ception of distances is also distorted by this
effect.
● Due to the screen resolution or insufficient
light condition
s, some items may be dis-
played in an unsatisfactory manner or not at
all. Take special care with thin posts, fences,
railings or trees that might not be displayed
on screen and could damage the vehicle.
● The rear assist has blind spots where it is
not pos
sible to represent people or objects
(small children, animals and certain objects
cannot be detected in its field of vision). Mon-
itor the vehicle's surrounding area at all
times.
● Keep the camera lens clean, free of ice and
snow
, and do not cover it.
● The system is not a replacement for driver
awar
eness. Supervise the parking operation
at all times, as well as the vehicle's surround-
ing area. Adapt your speed and driving style at all times to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic
c
onditions.
● Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at
the screen.
● The images on the rear assist screen are
only tw
o-dimensional. Due to a lack of spatial
depth, protruding parts or holes in the road,
for example, are more difficult to detect or
may not be seen at all.
● Vehicle load modifies the representation of
the orientation lines
displayed. The width
represented by the lines diminishes with ve-
hicle load. Pay special attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings when the inside of the ve-
hicle of the luggage compartment is carrying
a heavy load.
● In the following situations, the objects or
other vehic
les 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. » 243

Care and maintenance
–
the bonnet mu s
t be closed.
– switch the ignition on and off.
– press the windscreen wiper lever forward
briefly (windscreen washer function).
This will lock the wiper arms. For the sake of the environment
The car should only be washed in special
w ash b
ays. These areas are prepared to pre-
vent oily water from getting into the public
drains. In some places, washing vehicles out-
side the areas intended for this purpose is
prohibited. Camera sensors and lenses
●
Use a small brush to remove snow and a
de-ic er s
pr
ay to remove ice.
● Clean the sensors with a solvent-free prod-
uct and a soft, dr
y cloth.
● Moisten the camera lens using a standard
alcohol-b
ased glass cleaning agent and
clean the lens with a dry cloth. In the active
lane assist*, the area in front of the lens is
normally cleaned with the windscreen wash-
er. CAUTION
● When y ou c
lean the vehicle with a pressure
washer: –
Sta y
a suitable distance from the sensors
on the front and rear bumpers.
– Do not clean the camera lenses or sur-
rounding area with the pressure washer.
● Never use warm or hot water to remove
snow and ic
e from the reverse camera lens,
as it could crack the lens.
● Never use abrasive cleaning agents on the
lens. Waxing and polishing
Care
W
ax
in
g protects the paintwork. It is time to
apply a coat of good wax when water no lon-
ger forms droplets and rolls off the clean
paintwork.
Even if a wax solution is used regularly in the
vehicle washing tunnel, it is advisable to pro-
tect the paint with a hard wax coating at least
twice a year.
In the summer, you will find it is much easier
to remove dead insects (which accumulate
on the bumper and the front of the bonnet) if
the car has been treated with care products
recently.
Polishing
Polishing is only necessary if the paint has
lost its shine, and the gloss cannot be
brought back by putting on wax. If the polish does not contain wax, a wax
product shou
ld be applied after polishing. CAUTION
● Do not u se po
lishes and hard wax on pain-
ted parts with a matt finish or on plastic
parts.
● Do not apply paint polishes to the side trim
that ru
ns around the panoramic roof and ends
on the windscreen. However, it can be treated
with hard wax. Trims
In respect for the environment, the silver-
p
l
at
ed trims on the body are made of pure
aluminium (they do not contain chrome).
Dirt or marks on the trim mouldings should
be removed with a cleaning product with a
neutral PH (do not use a chrome cleaner).
Body polish is also unsuitable for use on trim
mouldings. The intensive cleaning fluids of-
ten used before the car goes into a car wash
may contain alkaline substances, which can
cause dull or milky patches when they dry
out.
SEAT Official Services carry stocks of cleaning
products which have been tested for use on
your vehicle and are not harmful to the envi-
ronment.
