Infotainment system
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth®. Wireless Full Link is now
configur ed.
The pairing has concluded. The connect
ed
mobile phone device can also use Wireless
Full Link from now on without the USB con-
nection.
If pop-up menus are rejected during the con-
nection process, Wireless Full Link will not be
available. In this case, SEAT recommends re-
moving the devices in both the iPhone set-
tings and the infotainment system, and re-
starting the connection process. WARNING
The use of applications while driving can
distr act your att

ention from the traffic. Any
distraction affecting the driver in any way
can lead to an accident and cause injuries.

o account what is indicated in
page 194, Languages available depend-
ing on the market. In online* mode, com-
mands are recorded more accurately, as
more data is available.
Voice control understands questions and ex-
pressions without having to learn commands.
Commands can be formulated freely and
can be colloquial. You will find proposals for
commands in the infotainment system.
Functions are reduced in offline mode.
Loud noises inside or outside the vehicle can
cause malfunctions, as well as confusing
phrases and answers.
Languages available depending on the
market
Online* and offline: German, American Eng-
lish, British English, French, Italian, Spanish
and Czech. These languages have advanced
functions such as Online Commands, air con-
ditioning control, natural interaction, etc. The other languages of the infotainment sys-

do not offer Online Commands, air con-
ditioning control or natural interaction.
Requirements

Start and driving
As soon as the temperature of the high-volt-
age has incr ease enough, the driv
e system
can be switched on again.
To ensure that the drive system can be
switched on, even in very low outside temper-
atures, SEAT recommends parking the vehicle
in a place protected from the cold. Note
A click is heard when the drive system is
t urned on. This is compl

etely normal and
does not mean there is a problem. Starting the engine

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.

Switching to a different operating mode

Information about the operating mode that

e is displayed on the in-

Observe the safety warnings ››

› in Con-
tr ol and w
arning lamps on page 85. Description and operation
Hill Descent Control limits the speed on steep
descents by aut
omatically br

aking all four
wheels, both when moving forward and in re-
verse. As the anti-lock brake system remains
active, it prevents the wheels from locking. In
vehicles with manual transmission, the Hill
Descent Control adapts the theoretical
speed without slowing the engine below its
idling speed.
After starting the descent of a slope below
30 km/h (18 mph), speed is limited to a mini-
mum of 2 km/h (1 mph) and a maximum of
30 km/h (18 mph). When appropriate, the
driver may increase or decrease the speed
within the limit by pressing the accelerator or the brake. At this point the function is interrup-
ted and, if necessary, it is then r

eactivated.
Even so, it is imperative that the surface guar-
antees sufficient adhesion. For this reason,
the Hill Descent Control will not fulfil its func-
tion when, for example, descending a slope
with a frozen or slippery surface.
Hill Descent Control is available when the
dash panel display shows the message k .
Hill Descent Control automatically intervenes
if the following conditions are met:

Start and driving
sportier, more direct and noticeably more dy-
namic driving sensation.
St eering assist
This help assists the driv
er in critical situa-
tions. It recommends turning the steering
wheel to perform a corrective manoeuvre
(counter-steering), turning slightly to avoid
skidding ››› .
WARNING
Steering assist helps the driver in critical
sit uations. The driv

er is the person who has
to control the vehicle's steering at all times. Control lamp

messages shown on the instrument panel display.
Do not continue driving if the steering column re-
mains locked after switching on the ignition. Seek
specialist assistance. The control lamp should light up for a few
seconds when the ignition is s
wit

ched on. It
should go out once the engine is started. WARNING
Never ignore the warning lamps or messag-
es.

Driving
Engine
Depending on the pr ofil
e 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
activated.
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 233
. 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)*
DCC continuously adapts the shock absorb-
ers to the condition of the road and current
driving conditions, according to the pre-set
programme.
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 po
wer 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.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
In the Offroad and Snow driving profiles, the
electronic stability Control (ESC)
››› page 278 adjusts to adapt to the terrain.
In addition, hill descent control (HDC) is acti-
vated in the Offroad profile ››› page 236
.
PreCrash system
The PreCrash system adapts according to
the selected configuration. The Sport and
Offroad driving profiles have specific settings to adapt them to driving and terrain charac-
teristics
