Driving
Hybrid B (use the batt ery's char
ge)1)
This is the operating mode that allows you to
save most fuel.
The operating mode control unit tries to make
the most of the battery charge. For this pur-
pose, with active directions the navigation
data are also accessed.
In this operating mode, the electric motor and
the combustion engine share the work of
driving the vehicle.
In hybrid operating mode, the power from the
battery charge is used optimally. If route
guidance is activated, the vehicle may auton-
omously recharge the high-voltage battery
using the combustion engine.
Manual control of the battery charge
Manual control of the battery charge is only
possible in Hybrid operating mode. The op-
tion selected by the user is only valid until the
ignition is switched off or the vehicle is switch-
ed to Hybrid mode or E-MODE.
Press the function button  and use the sym-
bols , = and  to control the battery charge:
Pressing this symbol selects a higher
theoretical charge level. The vehicle
 tries to reach that new theoretical high-
volt
age battery charge level while driv-
ing. The vehicle is powered by the com-
bustion engine. If the combustion engine
has “excess” power, it is used to charge
the high-voltage battery. This option in-
creases fuel consumption. SEAT there-
fore recommends using the charging
socket to charge the high-voltage bat-
tery, whenever possible ››› page 320
.
The high-voltage battery charge level is
kept at around the current level while
driving. If you accelerate harder or in-
crease the vehicle speed, the combus-
tion engine starts up. When permitted by
the driver’s demand for acceleration and
the vehicle speed, the vehicle switches
back to electric mode.
Pressing this symbol selects a lower the-
oretical charge level. The vehicle only
uses the battery's charge when it is
above the selected theoretical charge
level. The rest is kept until the end of the
journey.

The operating mode activ
e at any given time
is displayed on the instrument cluster display,
e.g. B. WARNING
Switching to a different operating mode
whil e driving can distr

act you from traffic
conditions and cause accidents. Note
Information about the operating mode that
is curr ently activ

e is displayed on the in-
strument cluster display, along with the
charge level of the high-voltage battery. Troubleshooting

The indicator lamp lights up in white.
The E-MODE operating mode N
(driving in
electric mode) cannot be used temporarily
because one or more conditions are not met.

Turn signals: Error in the charging system.
The charging process cannot start or has
paused.
Always on: The charging connector has
not been locked. Unplug the charging
connector and plug it back in to the
charging socket, making sure it is proper-
ly inserted. If the problem persists, check
the compatibility of the cable or ask a
professional for help. Note
If the charging process display permanent-
ly indicat es an err

or in the power supply or
vehicle’s charging system, you should seek
professional assistance. 3
