to the presence of metallic objects (e.g. rails
on the r oad or sheets used in r
oad w
orks).
The area in front of and around the radar
sensor should not be covered with adhesives,
additional or similar headlights, as this may
negatively affect Front Assist operation.
If the front of the vehicle is not properly re-
paired or structural modifications are made
to it, for example if the suspension is lowered,
Front Assist operation may be affected. SEAT
recommends visiting a SEAT dealership for
this purpose. CAUTION
If you have the sensation that the radar
sensor is damaged or has lost its settings, disconnect the Fr ont Assist. This will av
oid
possible dangerous situations caused by a
system malfunction. If this occurs have it
adjusted.

When a new wheel is fitted, it should be bal-

Adjustments of the running gear: misaligned
running gear increases the wear of the tyres
and affects safety while driving. If tyres wear
too quickly, have the wheel alignment
checked at a specialised workshop.
Low profile tyres
Low profile tyres, compared to other rim and
tyre combinations, offer a broader tread and
a greater rim diameter along with a lower
height of the tyre sidewall. This results in a
more agile driving behaviour. However, on
roads that are in poor condition, this might af-
fect comfort and cause more noise.
Low profile tyres may deteriorate more quick-
ly than standard tyres, for instance due to
strong knocks, potholes, manhole covers and
kerbs. Therefore, maintaining the correct tyre
pressure is particularly important
