minimise the risk of unauthorised third parties
accessing the v ehicl
e’s systems.
Software and locking mechanisms mounted
on the vehicle are being developed continu-
ously. As in the case of computers or mobile
phone device operating systems, software
and locking mechanisms mounted on the ve-
hicle can also be updated non-periodically.
In general, software updates improve the se-
curity, stability and speed of execution of ve-
hicle systems that have already been manu-
factured.
You can actively contribute to reducing the
risk of unauthorized third parties accessing
the vehicle systems and their functions:

Sticker subsequently affixed to the
v ehicl

e that indicates that the SEAT CONNECT
services have been permanently disconnec-
ted. To permanently deactivate the SEAT CON-
NEC
T functionalit

y, go to a specialized work-
shop and request the deactivation of the
control unit called “Emergency call module
control unit and communication unit”.
Once the “Emergency call module control
unit and communication unit” has been de-
activated, the workshop in question generally
affixes the sticker ››› Fig. 134 to the vehicle,
e.g. to the roof console. The sticker indicates
that “Remote Access” services do not work. If you sell the vehicle or lend it for a long peri-
od of time, w

arn the buyer or the user that the
services and the control unit are deactivated.
Faults Even if the prerequisites for the use of SEAT

e met, there may be
factors beyond the control of SEAT that inter-
fere with the execution of such services or
prevent them. These may be specifically:

Driving indications Electric drive system functions. Delivery of power from the electric engine
The maximum t
or

que of the electric engine is
available immediately after pressing the ac-
celerator pedal.
Brake energy recuperation (charging)
When braking the vehicle, electric power is
generated through the electric engine and
stored in the high-voltage battery
››› page 139. This also occurs to a lesser ex-
tent when the vehicle moves by inertia or
drives downhill in the deceleration phase.
As the charge level of the high-voltage bat-
tery increases, the recuperation reduces and,
thus, the effect of the engine brake. When the
high-voltage battery is fully charged, no en-
ergy recuperation takes place and the effect
of the engine brake is not available ››› .
The ener gy r

ecuperation can be displayed
on the instrument panel display or in the ap-
plication installed on the smartphone. Slow travel function
The slo

w travel function consists of driving
slowly, at about 5 km/h (3 mph), forward or
reverse without pressing the accelerator ped-
al.
The slow travel function is activated automat-
ically:

On the instrument panel display: indi-

ation levels. The brake energy recuperation can generate
a br
aking eff

ect. This braking effect depends
on the selected driving programme and the
level of charge of the high-voltage battery. When braking the vehicle and when the vehi-
cle mo

ves by inertia or travels downhill in the
deceleration phase, electric power is gener-
ated by the electric engine and stored in the
high-voltage battery. The electric engine
then operates as an alternator and produces
a engine brake effect. This process is called
brake energy recuperation.
The status of the recuperation is indicated in
the power display of the instrument panel
››› page 61. When recuperation is active, the
needle goes to the green area of the display.
The current recuperation level is displayed on
the instrument panel display ››› Fig. 136.
Given the case, in the application installed on
the smartphone you can view a statistic of
the energy recuperated over the last 30 mi-
nutes. Check the electronic instruction man-
ual of the application for this.
The effect of the engine brake is more or less
intense depending on the level of recupera-
tion. If the recuperation is very intense, the
brake light of the vehicle may also be switch-
ed on. As the charge level of the high-voltage
battery increases, the recuperation reduces
and, thus, the effect of the engine brake.
When the high-voltage battery is fully charg-
ed, no energy recuperation takes place and
the effect of the engine brake is not available.
When the vehicle detects that road condi-
tions do not allow safe contact between the
wheels and the road, the energy recupera- tion is automatically reduced and, therefore,
the effect of the engine br

Indication that the drive system is connec-
t ed
The el
ectric engine does not generate no-
ticeable noises neither when connecting the
drive system nor when it is running. Therefore,
it is not possible to recognise whether the
drive system is running based on the engine
noises. Instead, you can recognised that the
drive system is connected by the following
characteristics:
