When operating SEAT Drive Profile, pay atten-
tion to a l

l traffic: doing otherwise could cause
an accident. Note
● When the v ehic

le is switched off it will al-
ways store the driving profile that was selec-
ted when the ignition key was removed. Nev- ertheless, when the engine is restarted, the
engine and the g
e

ar will not restart in the set-
ting selected. For engine and gear to revert to
the desired position, select the correspond-
ing drive profile again or press the Easy Con-
nect system button repeatedly.
● When the vehicle is restarted after using
the Offroad or Snow settings, the sy

stem is
always activated in the Normal profile.
● Your speed and driving style must always
be adjus
ted to visibility, weather, and traffic
conditions.
● The Eco profile is not recommended when
to

wing a vehicle. Kick-down
The Kick-down feature allows maximum ac-
c
el
er

ation to be reached.
If the Eco* profile has been selected in the
SEAT Drive Profile ››› page 243 and the
accelerator is pressed beyond a hard point,
the engine power is automatically controlled
to give your vehicle maximum acceleration. WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slip-
pery or w

et, the kick-down feature could
cause the driving wheels to spin, which could
result in skidding. 244

Driver assistance systems
● When c ornerin
g
● On r
oads in poor condition
● In unfavourable weather conditions
● When a sporty driving style is employed
● In the event of a serious distraction to the
driver
Fatigue det

ection will be restored when the
vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes,
when the ignition is switched off or when the
driver has unbuckled their seat belt and
opened the door.
In the event of slow driving during a long pe-
riod of time (below 65 km/h, 40 mph) the
system automatically re-establishes the tired-
ness calculation. When driving at a faster
speed the driving behaviour will be recalcula-
ted.
Park Assist*
Relat
ed video Fig. 216
Smart solutions Introduction
The Park Assist system is an additional func-
tion of P
arkPi

lot ››› page 257 and helps the
driver to:
● find a suitable parking space,
● select a parking mode,
● park driving in reverse in suitable perpen-
dicul
ar and parallel spaces,
● park driving forwards in suitable perpen-
dicul
ar spaces,
● exit a parking space driving forwards from
a par al

lel space.
In vehicles with a Park Assist system and fac-
tory radio the front, rear and side areas are
represented, and the position of obstacles is
shown relative to the vehicle.
The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations inherent to the system and its use
requires special attention by the driver ››› .
WARNING
The technology used in the park assist sys-
tem in v

olves a series of limitations inherent
in the actual system and in the use of ultra-
sonic sensors. The use of Park Assist should
never tempt you to take any risk that may
compromise safety. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
● Any accidental movement of the vehicle
coul
d result in serious injury. ●
Adapt

your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
● Certain surfaces of objects and garments
do not refl
ect the ultrasound sensors' sig-
nals. The system cannot detect, at least cor-
rectly, these objects or people wearing such
clothes.
● Ultrasound sensor signals may be affected
by e
xternal sound sources. In certain circum-
stances this may prevent them from detect-
ing people or objects.
● The ultrasound sensors have blind spots in
which ob
stacles and people are not regis-
tered.
● Monitor the area around the vehicle at all
times, sinc
e the ultrasound sensors do not
detect small children, animals or certain ob-
jects in all situations. WARNING
Quick turns of the steering wheel when park-
ing or e x

iting a parking space with Park As-
sist can cause serious injury.
● Do not hold the steering wheel during ma-
noeuvre
s to park or exit a parking space until
the system requests it. Doing so disables the
system during the manoeuvre, resulting in
the parking being cancelled. » 249

4 Information on fuel consump-
tion
Fuel
c

onsumption Approved consumption values are derived
from me
a

surements performed or supervised
by certified EU laboratories, according to the
legislation in force at the time (for more infor-
mation, see the Publications Office of the Eu-
ropean Union on the EUR-Lex website: © Eu-
ropean Union, http://eur-lex.europa.eu/) and
apply to the specified vehicle characteristics.
The values relating to fuel consumption and
CO 2 emissions can be found in the documen-
tation provided to the purchaser of the vehi-
cle at the time of purchase.
Fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions depend
on the equipment/features of each individual
vehicle, as well as on the driving style, road
conditions, traffic conditions, environmental
conditions, load or number of passengers. Note
In practice, and considering all the factors
mentioned here, c on

sumption values can dif-
fer from those calculated in the current Euro-
pean regulations. Weights
Kerb weight refers to the basic model with a
fuel
t

ank filled to 90% capacity and without
optional extras. The figure quoted includes
75 kg to allow for the weight of the driver.
Special versions, optional equipment fittings
or retro-fitting accessories will increase the
weight of the vehicle ››› .
WARNING
● Ple a

se note that the centre of gravity may
shift when transporting heavy objects; this
may affect vehicle handling and lead to an ac-
cident. Always adjust your speed and driving
style to suit road conditions and require-
ments.
● Never exceed the gross axle weight rating
or the gros
s vehicle weight rating. If the per-
missible axle load or the permissible total
weight is exceeded, the driving characteris-
tics of the vehicle may change, which could
lead to accidents, injuries and damage to the
vehicle. 318
