The vehicle's rear is presented. The red
auxiliary line establishes the safety dis-
tance.
Green and red semicircular auxiliary
lines are displayed in vehicles with a
factory-fitted towing bracket. The auxili-
ary lines indicate the distance from the
towing bracket. The distance between
the auxiliary lines (green and red) is ap-
prox. 0.3 m. The orange auxiliary line in-
dicates, depending on the turn of the
steering wheel, the pre-calculated di-
rection of the towing bracket.
In vehicles with a factory-fitted towing
bracket, the distance from the red auxil-
iary line to the vehicle is approx. 0.4 m.

g 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.270

Driver assistance systems
●
The sys t
em is not a replacement for driver
awareness. 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 conditions.
● 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 r
ev

ersing. Note
● It is

important to take great care and pay
special attention if you are not yet familiar
with the system.
● Rear assist will not be available if the vehi-
cle's
rear lid is open. Instructions for use

Operation
● If the ar
e
a 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 h
ave 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 gl
ass 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 u se abr

asive cleaning products to
clean the camera lens.
● Do not use hot or warm water to remove ice
or snow fr
om the camera lens. Doing so could
damage the camera. Parking and manoeuvring with the

een: orientation lines. Switching the system on and off
●
The rear assist will switch on when the igni-
tion i s
on or the en

gine running, on engaging
reverse gear (manual gearbox) or on chang-
ing the selector lever to the R position (auto-
matic gearbox).
● The system switches off 8 seconds after
diseng
aging reverse gear (manual gearbox)
or removing the selector lever from the R po-
sition (automatic gearbox). The system will
also disconnect immediately after the igni-
tion is switched off.
● The camera will stop transmitting images
above the s
peed of 15 km/h (9 mph) with re-
verse engaged. In combination with the Parking System Plus
›››
page 262, the camera image will cease to
be transmitted immediately when reverse
gear is disengaged or when the selector lever
is moved from the R position, and the optical
information provided by the Parking Aid sys-
tem will be displayed.
Also in combination with the system, the rear
assist image can also be concealed:
● By pressing one of the Infotainment system
button
s on the display.
● OR: By pressing the miniature vehicle that
appear
s on the left of the screen (which
switches to the full-screen mode of the Park-
ing System Plus's optical system).
If you wish to display the rear assist image
again:
● Disengage reverse, or change the selector
lever's
position, engage reverse again or
move the selector lever to position R.
