g and safety warnings WARNING
● The Re ar As

sist does not make it possible
to precisely calculate the distance from ob-
stacles (people, vehicles, etc.) and nor can it
overcome the system's own limits, hence us-
ing it may cause serious accidents and inju-
ries if used negligently or without due care.
The driver should be aware of his/her sur-
roundings at all times to ensure safe driving.
● The camera lens expands and distorts the
field of
vision and displays the objects on the
screen in a different, vague manner. The per-
ception of distances is also distorted by this
effect.
● Some objects may, due to the resolution of
the disp
lay screen - not be displayed in a sat-
isfactory manner or may not be displayed at all. Take special care with thin posts, fences,
rai
lin

gs or trees that might not be displayed
on screen and could damage the vehicle.
● The rear assist has blind spots where it is
not pos
sible to represent people or objects
(small children, animals and certain objects
cannot be detected in its field of vision). Mon-
itor the vehicle's surrounding area at all
times.
● Keep the camera lens clean, free of ice and
snow
, and do not cover it.
● The system is not a replacement for driver
awar
eness. Supervise the parking operation
at all times, as well as the vehicle's surround-
ing area. Adapt your speed and driving style
at all times to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
● Do not be distracted from the traffic by
looking at
the screen.
● The images on the rear assist screen are
only tw
o-dimensional. Due to a lack of spatial
depth, protruding parts or holes in the road,
for example, are more difficult to detect or
may not be seen at all.
● Vehicle load modifies the representation of
the orientation lines
displayed. The width
represented by the lines diminishes with ve-
hicle load. Pay special attention to the vehi-
cle's surroundings when the inside of the ve-
hicle of the luggage compartment is carrying
a heavy load.
● In the following situations, the objects or
other vehic
les shown in the navigation sys-
tem display appear to be further away or » 173

Parking manoeuvre
● Place the vehicle in front of the parking
spac
e and engage reverse gear (manual
gearbox) or move the selector to the R posi-
tion (automatic gearbox).
● Reverse slowly, and turn the steering wheel
so that the s
ide orientation lines lead to-
wards the parking space.
● Guide the vehicle into the parking space so
that the s
ide orientation lines run parallel to
it.

4 The cruise control system allows you to drive
at
a c
on

stant speed of 30 km/h (19 mph) or
higher without having to press the accelera-
tor. However, the speed is only maintained
within the margin permitted by the engine
power and the braking effect of the engine.
The  warning lamp lights up on the general
instrument panel if cruise control is switched
on. WARNING
● For s af

ety reasons the cruise control sys-
tem must not be used in dense traffic or
where roads conditions are poor (e.g. due to
ice, aquaplaning, loose grit, snow). – Risk of
accident!
● The programmed speed can only be re-es-
tabli
shed if it is not too high for current traf-
fic conditions.
● Always switch the cruise control system off
after u
sing it in order to avoid involuntary
use. CAUTION
● The crui se c

ontrol cannot maintain a con-
stant speed when the vehicle is moving
downhill. The vehicle tends to accelerate un-
der its own weight. Therefore, shift down or
use the brake pedal in good time to slow the
vehicle. Note
● In v ehic

les with an automatic gearbox, the
cruise control system cannot be switched on
if the selector lever is in position P, N or R.
● In vehicles with a manual gearbox, the
cruise c
ontrol cannot be switched on if first
gear or reverse gear is engaged. Setting the speed

Wheels and tyres
Unusual vibration or the car pulling to one
s ide m
a
y indicate that one of the tyres is
damaged. Reduce speed immediately and
stop if you suspect that a wheel may have
been damaged! Check the tyres for damage
(blisters, cracks, etc.). If no external damage
is visible, drive slowly and carefully to the
nearest Official Service and have the vehicle
inspected.
Changing wheels Fig. 215
Interchanging tyres. Changing wheels around
If
the w
e

ar is visibly greater on the front tyres,
they should be exchanged for the rear tyres
as shown in the diagram ››› Fig. 215. All the
tyres will then last for about the same time.
To ensure that the wear is equal on all tyres
and maintain their optimum useful life, they
should be changed around every 10 000 km. Storing tyres
When you r

emove the tyres, mark them in or-
der to maintain the same direction of rotation
when they are installed again.
When removed, the wheels and/or tyres
should be stored in a cool, dry and preferably
dark location. Store tyres in a vertical posi-
tion, if they are not fitted on wheel rims.
New tyres or wheels All four wheels must be fitted only with tyres
of
the s
ame type, s

ize and the same tread
pattern.
The correct tyre/wheel combinations speci-
fied for your vehicle are listed in its docu-
mentation.
Note for Italy: A SEAT Service Centre should
be consulted whether different sized wheels
or tyres to those originally fitted by SEAT may
be fitted, as well as the combinations al-
lowed between the front axle (axle 1) and
back axle (axle 2).
Understanding the tyre designations makes
it easier to choose the correct tyres. The tyre
designation is marked on the sidewall. For
example.

Wheels and tyres
CAUTION
Follow the instructions given on the tempora-
ry s
pare wheel label. Note
The tyre pressure of the spare wheel must al-
wa y

s correspond to the highest pressure pre-
scribed for the model of vehicle in question. Tyre monitoring systems
Ty r

e pressure* The tyre pressure monitoring system uses
ABS
sen
sor

s to compare the revolutions and
the circumference of each wheel. Should the
circumference of any wheel change, the
warning lamp  on the general dash panel
››› page 103 will light up and an audible
warning will be heard.
Tyre circumference may change if:
● Tyre pressure is too low
● Tyre structure is damaged
● Vehicle load not evenly distributed
● wheels on one axle are subjected to greater
load, (e.
g. driving with trailer, uphill, down-
hill);
● Snow chains are fitted
● The temporary spare wheel is fitted ●
One wheel on the axl
e has been changed
Basic system settings
Should the tyre pressure change or if one or
more wheels are changed or the position of
the wheel on the vehicle is changed, e.g.
changing round the front and rear wheels, or
where a warning lamp lights up when driv-
ing, the system must be adjusted as follows: ● Inflate all tyres to the prescribed pressures
›››
page 216.
● Switch the ignition on.
● Store the new tyre pressure in the Easy

 page 20.
The warning lamp  lights up
If the pressure on at least one tyre is signifi-
cantly lower than the pressure set by the driv-
er, the warning lamp  will light up ››› .
The w arnin
g l

amp  flashes
If the warning lamp flashes, there is a fault in
the system. Contact a specialised service to
have it fixed. WARNING
● If the w arnin

g lamp  lights up, slow down
immediately and avoid any severe braking or
steering manoeuvres. Stop and check the
tyres and their pressure as soon as possible. ●
Under cer t

ain conditions (e.g. sporty driv-
ing style, driving on loose surfaces or in win-
ter) the warning lamp  may take a while to
light up or may remain switched off.
● Despite the tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem, the driver r
emains responsible for main-
taining the correct tyre pressure. You must
therefore check the tyre pressure often. Note
● The ty re pr

essure monitoring system is not
a replacement for regularly checking the tyre
pressure, as it is unable to recognise an even
drop in pressure.
● The tyre pressure monitoring system is un-
able t
o warn of a sudden drop in tyre pres-
sure, e.g. a puncture. In this case, try to stop
the vehicle carefully with no severe braking
or steering manoeuvres.
● To ensure the tyre pressure monitoring sys-
tem work
s correctly, the basic setting must
be performed every 10 000 km (6000 miles)
or once a year. Winter service
