Factors that may affect how the radar sensor
oper at
e
s
If laser sensor operation is impaired, due to
heavy rain, spray, snow or mud, the ACC is
deactivated temporarily. The relevant text
message will appear in the dash panel dis-
play. If necessary, clean the radar sensor
››› Fig. 195.
When the radar sensor begins to operate
properly again, the ACC will automatically be
available again. The message on the instru-
ment panel screen will switch off and the ACC
will be reactivated again.
ACC operation may be affected by a strong ra-
dar reverse reflection, for example in a closed
car park.
Trailer mode
When driving with trailer the ACC controls
less dynamically.
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 ACCnot available
remain s 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
mes s

age, the vehicle may initiate an involun-
tary movement and could crash into the vehi-
cle 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 serious injuries.
If necessary, apply the brake. 223

o

ss traffic alert: zone monitored around the
vehicle exiting the parking space. The parking assistant uses the radar sensors
on the r
e
ar b

umper ››› Fig. 202 to monitor the
traffic crossing behind the vehicle as it backs
out of a parallel parking space or as it is be-
ing manoeuvred, for example in very low visi-
bility conditions. If the system detects that someone else on
the roa

d is approaching the rear of the vehi-
cle ››› Fig. 205, an acoustic alarm is heard.
In addition to the acoustic alarm, if the vehi-
cle is equipped with the park assist system,
the driver is also informed by means of a vis-
ual signal on the radio screen. This signal is
displayed in the form of a red strip at the
back of the image of the vehicle on the radio
screen. This strip displays the side of the ve-
hicle towards which traffic is approaching. 1)
Automatic braking to reduce damages
If the rear cross traffic alert detects that
someone else on the road is approaching the
rear of the vehicle and the driver does not
step on the brake, the system will engage the
brakes automatically.
The parking system helps the driver by auto-
matically engaging the brakes to reduce any
damage. The system will brake automatically
if the vehicle is reversing at a speed of ap-
proximately 1-12 km (1-7 mph). Once it has
detected that the vehicle has stopped, the
system will keep the vehicle stopped for ap-
prox. 2 seconds.
After automatically braking to reduce dam-
age, the system will not be able to automati- cally brake again for approximately 10 sec-
onds.
You c
an interrupt the automatic braking by
stepping hard on the accelerator pedal or the
brake pedal in order to regain control of the
vehicle. WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into the
re ar c

ross traffic alert cannot overcome the
limits imposed by the laws of physics; it only
works within the limits of the system. The
parking assistant function should not tempt
you into taking any risks. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
● The system should never be used in limited
vis
ibility conditions or complicated traffic,
e.g., in high-traffic areas or when crossing
multiple lanes.
● Be sure to always be aware of the vehicle's
surrou
ndings, since the system often fails to
detect things such as bicycles or pedestrians.
● The rear cross traffic alert itself will not
brake the
vehicle to a complete stop. 1)
It is only displayed if the vehicle is equipped with
a park in

g system.

Prematurely stopping or automatically inter-
rupting the manoeuvres for parking or exit-
ing a parking space
Park Assist interrupts the manoeuvres for
parking or exiting a parking space in any of
the following cases:
● Press the  button. ●
The s
peed ex

ceeds approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph).
● The driver takes hold of the steering wheel.
● The parking manoeuvre does not end with-
in appro
ximately 6 minutes following activa-
tion of the automatic steering.
● There is a fault in the system (the system is
temporari
ly unavailable).
● ASR is switched off.
● ASR or ESC intervene with regulation.
● The driver door is opened.
To re
start the manoeuvre it is necessary that
none of these things occur and that the 
button is pressed again.
Special Characteristics
The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations inherent to the system. For exam-
ple, it is therefore not possible to enter or exit
a parking space on sharp bends.
While entering or exiting a parking space, a
brief signal sounds to prompt the driver to
change between forward and reverse gears
(depending on the case). In successive ma-
noeuvres, the assistant tells the driver to
change gears, at the latest, when the contin- uous audible signal is given (object present
at a dis

tance of ≤30 cm) by Park Pilot.
When the Park Assist system turns the steer-
ing wheel with the vehicle stationary, the in-
strument panel also displays the symbol .
Keep the brake pedal depressed while the
symbol remains on the dash panel display to
turn the wheels with the vehicle stopped.
This way, the system will require fewer ma-
noeuvres to complete the parking action.
Trailer mode
The Park Assist system cannot be switched
on if the factory-fitted towing bracket
››› page 249 is electrically connected to a
trailer.
After changing a wheel
If, after changing a wheel, the vehicle stops
entering and exiting parking spaces correctly,
the circumference of the new wheel may be
different and the system may need to adapt
to it. The adaptation is automatic and takes
place during driving. Making turns slowly and
in both directions (20 km/h [12 mph]) for a
few minutes may contribute to this adapta-
tion process ››› in Introduction on

The driver is always responsible for braking
in time ››› .
Autom atic

braking intervention to avoid ex-
ceeding the speed limit
To avoid exceeding the speed limit of approx-
imately 7 km/h (4 mph) when entering or
leaving a parking space, the brakes may acti-
vate automatically. After automatically acti-
vating the brakes, the manoeuvres to enter or
exit a parking space may continue.
The brakes are only automatically activated
once for each attempt to enter or exit a park-
ing space. If the speed of approximately
7 km/h (4 mph) is exceeded again, the corre-
sponding operation is halted.
Automatic braking to reduce damages
Depending on certain conditions, the Park
Assist system can automatically brake the ve-
hicle when faced with an obstacle, briefly ac-
tioning and holding down the brake ped-
al ››› . Following this the driver must press
the br ak
e ped

al.
Automatic braking intervention to reduce
damage leads to the parking manoeuvre fin-
ishing. WARNING
The automatic braking intervention by Park
Ass i

st should never tempt you to take any
risk that may compromise safety. The system
is not a replacement for driver awareness.
● The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations
inherent to the system. In certain
situations, the automatic braking interven-
tion may only work in a limited way or not
work at all.
● Always be ready to use the brakes yourself!
● The automatic braking intervention will end
after ap
proximately 1.5 seconds. Following
this, brake the vehicle yourself. Parking aid (Park Pilot)
Gener a
l

information Assorted assistance systems – which vary
dependin
g on the equipment
fitt

ed in the car
– will help you when parking or manoeu-
vring.
The rear parking aid is an audible assistant
that warns about obstacles located behind
the vehicle ›››
page 241.
During parking, Parking System Plus assists
the driver by visually and audibly warning
them about obstacles detected in front and
behind the vehicle ›››
page 242. WARNING
● Alw a

ys pay attention, also when looking
straight ahead, to traffic and the vehicle sur-
roundings. The assistance systems are not a
replacement for driver awareness. When in-
serting or removing the vehicle from a park-
ing space, or when performing similar ma-
noeuvres the driver always assumes the re-
sponsibility.
● Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times t
o suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
● The ultrasound sensors have blind spots in
which ob
stacles and people are not regis-
tered. Pay special attention to children and
animals.
● Always keep visual control of the vehicle
surrou
ndings: use the mirrors for additional
help. CAUTION
Parking Aid functions may be negatively af-
fect ed b

y different factors that may lead to
damage to the vehicle or its immediate sur-
rounds:
● Under certain circumstances, the system
does not
detect or display certain objects:
– Objects such as chains, trailer draw bars,
fences, posts and thin trees.
– Objects that are located above the sen-
sors, such as protrusions in a wall. 240

Braking while manoeuvring function* 3 Only valid with Parking System Plus
The emer
g

ency braking function is used to
minimise damage in the event of a collision.
Depending on the equipment, if the Parking
Aid is active, the braking while manoeuvring
function activates emergency braking when it
detects an obstacle in the vehicle’s path that
could cause a collision, driving forwards or in
reverse.
The function will not brake if the Parking Aid
is activated automatically. For the system to
operate, manoeuvring speed must be be-
tween 2.5 and 10 km/h (between 1.5 and 6
mph) for the front area and between 1.5 and
10 km/h (between 1 and 6 mph) for the rear.
Following an intervention, the braking while
manoeuvring function will be inactive in the
same direction of travel for 5 metres. Once
the gear is changed, or the selector lever’s
position is changed, the function will be ac-
tive again. The Parking Aid’s limitations ap-
