When the P button is pressed, the drive
wheels are locked. Only press P when the ve-
hicle is stationary ››› .
T o pr

ess the P button you must press the
brake pedal simultaneously.
 – Reverse gear
Reverse gear must be engaged only when
the vehicle is stationary and the engine is
idling ››› .
T o engage r

everse gear R, you must press the
brake pedal simultaneously. The reverse
lights switch on when the reverse gear R is
selected and the ignition is on.
 – Neutral
In this position, the gear is in neutral.
Press the brake pedal to move the lever from
N to D/S when the vehicle is stationary or at
speeds below 3 km/h (2 mph) ››› .

orward drive position
The D/S position enables the gears to be op-
erated in normal mode (D) or sport mode (S).
To select Sport mode S, move the lever back-
wards. Pushing the lever again will select nor-
mal mode D. The selected driving mode is
displayed on the instrument panel screen.
In normal mode (D), the gearbox selects the
best gear ratio. This depends on the engine load, the road speed and the dynamic gear
control pr

ogramme (DCP).
Sport mode (S) should be selected for a
sporty driving style. This setting makes use of
the engine's maximum power output. When
accelerating the gear shifts will be noticea-
ble.
Under certain circumstances (e.g. on moun-
tain roads) it can be advantageous to switch
tiptronic mode ››› page 231
, to adapt the
gears to suit the road conditions.
Selector lever lock
In N, the lever lock prevents a gear range
from being engaged, and prevents the vehi-
cle from moving off accidentally.
Press and hold the brake pedal with your left
foot with the engine running.
As a reminder to the driver, when the lever is
in position N the following indication will be
shown on the screen:
When stationary, apply footbrake
while selecting a gear.
The lever is not locked if it is moved quickly
through position N (e.g. when shifting from R
to D). This makes it possible, for instance, to
“rock the vehicle backwards and forwards” if
it is stuck in snow or mud. The lever lock en-
gages automatically if the brake pedal is not
pressed and the lever is in position N for more than about one second at a speed of less
than 5 km/h (3 mph). WARNING

Driving
Steering Inf ormation r
elating to different ve-
hicle processes. Electro-mechanical power steering adapts
el
ectr

onically to the speed of the car, torque
and steering angle.
Even if the power steering fails or the engine
is stopped, it is possible to continue to rotate
the steering wheel as long as the key remains
in the ignition, but more force must be ap-
plied.
Progressive steering
Depending on the vehicle’s features, it may or
may not incorporate a progressive steering
system.
In city traffic you do not need to turn so much
on parking, manoeuvring or in very tight turns.
On the road or on the motorway, progressive
steering transmits, for example, in bends, a
sportier, more direct and noticeably more dy-
namic driving sensation. Control lamp v

Never ignore the warning lamps or messag-
es.

Start and driving
Description Depending on the equipment fitted in the ve-
hicl
e
, SEAT Drive Profile can operate on the
following functions:
Engine
Depending on the profile selected, the engine
responds more quickly or smoothly to the ac-
celerator being pressed. When the Eco pro-
file is selected, the Start-stop function is acti-
vated.
In vehicles with automatic transmission, the
gear change timing is changed to put the
changes at higher or lower revolutions. The
Eco profile activates the Inertia function,
thereby reducing consumption. The rest of
the driving profiles will activate the inertia use
function when the selector lever is not in the S
position, depending on how the accelerator
pedal is released ››› page 234
. When the ve-
hicle is turned on again, the function is activa-
ted by default to reduce consumption.
With manual transmission, the Eco profile
changes the gear change recommendations
to facilitate more efficient driving.
Dynamic chassis control (DCC)*
The DCC continuously adapts the damping
of the suspension system to the characteris-
tics of the road surface and the driving situa-
tion (speed, acceleration and steering wheel angle) according to the selected driving pro-
fil
e

. The vehicle's dynamic behaviour is also
adapted to improve grip on curves and turn-
ing capacity. Within the Individual profile you
can also adjust the DCC level in a custom-
ised manner.
In the event of a fault in the DCC, the follow-
ing message is displayed on the instrument
screen Fault: shock absorber regula-
tion
Steering
The power steering varies its driving modes
and adapts to the profile selected, thus offer-
ing the best behaviour for each situation.
Air conditioning
The Climatronic can operate in Eco mode
with particularly limited consumption.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)*
Depending on the driving profile, the perform-
ance of the ACC varies, to allow more sporty
acceleration and braking or a more respect-
ful fuel consumption.
PreCrash system
The PreCrash system adapts according to
the selected configuration. The Sport driving
profile has specific settings to adapt to driv-
ing characteristics ››› page 24
. Setting the driving profile There are several ways to select a driving
pr
ofil

e using the infotainment system:

Driver assistance systems
Limitations
This syst em does not r
eact to objects that
cross transversely or to animals. The basic
limitations of the Front Assist must also be
taken into account ››› page 251
.
Turn assist Turn assist can avoid a collision with a vehicle
appr
oaching in the opposit

e direction, by
braking the vehicle itself when the intention is
to turn.
This system is active up to 15 km/h (9 mph).
Limitations
The turn-off assist function is available if you
have indicated your intention to turn by acti-
vating the turn signal, you have turned the
steering wheel and the turning path has star-
ted.
It only reacts to vehicles that are in the path
of the vehicle (not to animals, people, etc.).
The basic limitations of the Front Assist must
also be taken into account ››› page 251

ain circumstances,
some of the reactions may be inappropriate
from the driver's standpoint. So pay attention
in order to intervene if necessary.
The following conditions may cause the
