ABS Seat Mii electric 2019 Owner's Manual

Seat belts
moment a vehicle starts moving, a type of en-
er gy call
ed “kinetic energy” starts acting on
both the vehicle and its passengers.
The amount of “kinetic energy” depends on
the speed of the vehicle and on the weight of
the vehicle and of its passengers. The higher
they are, the more energy there is to be “ab-
sorbed” in the event of an accident.
The most significant factor, however, is the
speed of the vehicle. If the speed doubles
from 25 km/h (15 mph) to 50 km/h (30 mph),
for example, the corresponding kinetic ener-
gy is multiplied by four.
Given that the passengers of the vehicle in
our example do not have their seat belts fas-
tened, in the event of a collision the entire
amount of the passengers' kinetic energy will
be only absorbed by the mentioned impact.
Even at speeds of 30 km/h (19 mph) to
50 km/h (30 mph), the forces acting on bod-
ies in a collision can easily exceed one tonne
(1000 kg). At greater speed these forces are
even higher.
Vehicle occupants not wearing seat belts are
not “attached” to the vehicle. In a head-on
collision, they will move forward at the same
speed their vehicle was travelling just before
the impact. This example applies not only to
head-on collisions, but to all accidents and
collisions. Even at low speeds the forces acting on the
body in a collision are so gr
eat that it is not
possible to brace oneself with one's hands. In
the event of a head-on collision, vehicle oc-
cupants not wearing a seat belt will be
thrown uncontrollably forward and will col-
lide, for example, against the steering wheel,
instrument panel or windscreen ››› Fig. 7.
It is also important for rear passengers to
wear seat belts properly, as they could other-
wise be thrown forward violently through the
vehicle interior in an accident. If a rear seat
occupant is not wearing a seat belt, they are
not only endangering themselves but also
the occupants of the front seats ››› Fig. 8. How to properly adjust your

Observe the safety warnings ››

tr ol and w
arning lamps on page 70. Brake assist systems
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)*
The ESC helps t
o impr

ove safety. It reduces
the tendency to skid and improves the stabili-
ty and roadholding of the vehicle. The ESC
detects critical handling situations, such as
vehicle understeer or oversteer, or wheelspin
on the driving wheels. It stabilises the vehicle
by braking individual wheels or by reducing
the engine torque. The warning lamp will
flash on the instrument panel when the ESC is
intervening !.
The ESC includes the anti-lock brake system
(ABS), the hydraulic brake assist (HBA), the
traction control system (ASR) and the elec-
tronic differential lock (EDS)
ESC also helps stabilise the vehicle by
changing the torque.
Anti-lock brake system (ABS)
ABS prevents the wheels from locking up un-
der braking until the vehicle has reached a
virtual standstill. You can continue to steer the
vehicle even when the brakes are on full.
Keep your foot on the brake pedal and do not pump the brakes. You will feel the brake pedal
pul
sat

e while the ABS is working.
If the running gear or brake system is modi-
fied, the effectiveness of the ABS could be se-
verely limited.
Hydraulic Brake Assist (HBA)*
The brake assist system can reduce the re-
quired braking distance. The braking force is
automatically boosted if you press the brake
pedal quickly in an emergency. You must
keep pressing the brake pedal until the dan-
ger has passed.
Traction control system (ASR)
In the event of wheelspin, the traction control
system reduces the engine torque to match
the amount of grip available. This helps the
car to start moving, accelerate or climb a
gradient.
Electronic differential lock (EDL)*
When the EDL detects wheelspin, it brakes
the spinning wheel and directs the power to
the other driven wheel. This function is active
up to approximately 100 km/h (62 mph).
To prevent the disc brake of the braked wheel
from overheating, the EDL cuts out automati-
cally if subjected to excessive loads. The ve-
hicle can still be driven. The EDL will switch on
again automatically when the brake has
cooled down. Electronic brake pressure distribution
(EBV)
In all vehicl
es, when the brakes are applied,
the centre of gravity of the vehicle moves for-
ward. As a consequence, there is a danger
that the rear wheels may lock due to their low
traction. The electronic brake pressure distri-
bution controls the brake pressure for the rear
wheels and ensures that this pressure is dis-
tributed optimally between the front and rear
axles. Under normal circumstances it pre-
vents the rear part of the vehicle from skid-
ding due to excessive braking of the rear
wheels. The function of the electronic brake
pressure distribution is incorporated in the
ABS function.
Electromechanical brake servo (eBKV)
With the ignition switched on, the electrome-
chanical brake servo supports the force of
the foot by increasing the pressure that the
driver exerts on the brake pedal. After discon-
necting the ignition, the assistance of the
brake servo is progressively reduced. Once
stopped, immobilise the vehicle to prevent it
from moving ››› page 159.
If the electromechanical brake servo does
not work, the yellow control lamps

Commercial warranty for the high-
v olt

age battery of electric and hy-
brid vehicles of SEAT S.A. 1. Compl
ementing the aforementioned war-
r
anties, the seller SEAT dealer grants the
high-voltage batteries of the vehicles that it
has sold an 8-year or 160,000-km warranty,
whichever comes first, for any material or fin-
ish defect.
2. The reduction of the battery’s capacity
over time is conditioned by the component it-
self and does not represent a defect from a
warranty point of view, provided said capaci- ty is not below 70% of the useful capacity be-
for

e 8 years or 160,000 km have passed,
whichever comes first.
3. The warranty for high-voltage batteries will
be invalidated when the defect is due to use,
handling or maintenance not in accordance
with the content of the instruction manual.
This is particularly applicable the battery
charge.
4. In addition, except for the duration of the
warranty, all conditions relating to the legal
warranty of the SEAT dealer (requirements,
criteria for assessing the absence of defects,
exclusion grounds, processing of entitlements
to benefits, entry into force, start and scope
of the warranty validity period, etc.) shall ap-
ply in relation to the high-voltage battery. Vehicle maintenance
