The essentials
Do not pull too hard with the towing vehicle
and t ak
e car
e to avoid jerking the tow rope.
When towing on an unpaved road, there is al-
ways a risk of overloading and damaging the
anchorage points.
Switch on the ignition so that the turn signals,
windscreen wipers and windscreen washer
can work. Ensure that the steering wheel is
unlocked and moves freely.
Place the gear lever in neutral on vehicles
with a manual gearbox. With an automatic
gearbox, place the lever in N.
To brake, press the brake pedal firmly. The
brake servo does not work when the engine is
switched off.
The power steering only works when the igni-
tion is switched on and the vehicle is moving,
provided that the battery is sufficiently
charged. Otherwise, it will need more force.
Ensure that the tow rope remains taut at all
times.

Instruments and warning/control lamps

ectro-mechanical power steering adapts
electronically to the speed of the car, torque
and turning angle.
If the power steering should fail at any time or
the engine is switched off (for instance when
being towed), the car can still be steered.
However, more effort than normal will be re-
quired to turn the steering wheel.

Overheated brakes
If the brakes overheat, for example after
abrupt braking or in long and steep slopes,
the ACC may be deactivated temporarily.
The relevant text message will appear in the
dash panel display. In this case, adaptive
cruise control cannot be activated.
Adaptive Cruise Control can be reactivated
once brake temperature has cooled suffi-
ciently. The message will disappear from the
instrument panel display. If the message ACC
not available remains on for quite a long
time it means that there is a fault. Contact a
specialised workshop. SEAT recommends vis-
iting a SEAT dealership. WARNING
If you do not heed the Press the brake
message, the v ehicl

e may initiate an invol-
untary movement and could crash into the
vehicle ahead. In any event, before driving
off, check that the road is clear. The radar
sensor may not detect obstacles on the
road. This could cause an accident and se-
rious injuries. If necessary, apply the brake. Lane Assist system*
Intr oduction Fig. 270
On the windscreen: field of vision of

a. Using the camera located in the windscreen,
the L
ane Assist syst
em det

ects the possible
lines dividing the lanes. When the vehicle in-
voluntarily approaches a dividing line it has
detected, the system notifies the driver with a
corrective steering movement. The purpose is
not only to warn the driver, but also to keep
the vehicle inside the lane. This movement
can be over-regulated at any time.
No warning is produced with the turn signals
activated, given that the Lane Assist system
understands that a lane change is required.
As soon as the ignition is switched on, the
lane departure function is automatically acti-
vated. Control lamp "
