ABS Seat Leon Sportstourer 2018 Owner's manual

The essentials
the wheel condition and hub mounting surfa-
ces. These surf aces must be cl
ean bef
ore fit-
ting the wheel.
Tyres with compulsory direction of
rotation A directional tread pattern can be identified
by the arro
ws on the side

wall that point in the
direction of rotation. Always observe the di-
rection of rotation indicated when fitting the
wheel to guarantee optimum properties of
this type of tyres with regard to grip, noises,
wear and aquaplaning.
If it is absolutely necessary to fit the spare
tyre* against the direction of rotation, drive
with care as this means the tyre does not of-
fer optimum driving properties. This is of par-
ticular importance when the road surface is
wet.
To return to directional tread tires, replace the
punctured tyre as soon as possible and re-
store the obligatory direction of rotation of all
tyres.

Driving
Description Depending on the equipment fitted in the ve-
hicle
, SEAT Driv
e Profile can operate on the
following functions:
Engine
Depending on the profile selected, the engine
responds more spontaneously or more in har-
mony with the movements of the accelerator.
Additionally, when Eco mode is selected, the
Start-stop function is automatically activa-
ted.
In vehicles with automatic transmission, the
gear change points are modified to position
them in lower or higher engine speed ranges.
Additionally, the Eco 1)
mode activates the In-
ertia function, enabling consumption to be
further reduced.
In manual gearbox vehicles, Eco 1)
mode cau-
ses the gear change recommendation indi-
cations that appear on the instrument panel
to vary, facilitating more efficient driving.
Dynamic chassis control (DCC)
DCC continuously adapts the shock absorb-
ers to the condition of the road and current driving conditions, according to the pre-set
progr
amme

.
In the event of a fault in the DCC, the follow-
ing message is displayed on the instrument
screen Fault: shock absorber regula-
tion
Address
Power steering becomes more robust in
Sport mode to enable a sportier driving style.
In the Leon Cupra the power steering be-
comes more robust in Cupra mode.
Air conditioning
In vehicles with Climatronic, this can operate
in eco 1)
mode, especially restricting fuel con-
sumption.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) 2)
The acceleration and braking gradient of the
adaptive cruise control varies according to
the active driving profile
