Operation
When a car that is manufactured in a country
that driv es on the right tr
av
els to a country
that drives on the left (or vice versa), it is nor-
mally necessary to cover part of the head-
light bulbs with stickers or to change the ad-
justment of the headlights to avoid dazzling
other drivers.
In such cases, the regulations specify certain
light values that must be complied with for
designated points of the light distribution. This
is known as “Tourist light”.
The light distribution of the halogen and full-
LED headlights allows the specific “tourist
light” values to be met without the need for
stickers or changes in the settings. Note
“Tourist light” is only allowed temporarily. If
you are pl anning a l

ong stay in a country
that drives on the other side, you should
take the vehicle to an Authorised Technical
Service to change the headlights. Interior lights

With the help of this system, the ABS is activa-
t ed mor

The brake assist function is deactivated auto-
matically when the brake pedal is released.
Hill hold control (HHC)*
The HHC system makes it easier to start the
vehicle on hills. The system maintains the
brake pressure created by pressing down on
the brake pedal for 2 seconds after it has
been released. Your foot can be removed
from the brake pedal and you can use the
accelerator pedal and move away on a hill
without having to use the handbrake. The
brake pressure drops as the accelerator ped-
al is pressed. If the vehicle cannot be started,
it will start to move backwards after 2 sec-
onds.
The HHC is activated on gradients of over 5%,
if the driver door is closed. It only works for
starting on hills, moving both forward and in
reverse. It is not activated during start-up
down hill.

If the ! warning lamp illuminates on ignition,
the ESC system may have switched off due to

tion again, if the warning lamp has switched off, this means the ESC is functioning correct-
ly again.

The informative display indicates:
Fault: electronic stability con-
trol (ESC)

to the presence of metallic objects (e.g. rails
on the r oad or sheets used in r
oad w
orks).
The area in front of and around the radar
sensor should not be covered with adhesives,
additional or similar headlights, as this may
negatively affect Front Assist operation.
If the front of the vehicle is not properly re-
paired or structural modifications are made
to it, for example if the suspension is lowered,
Front Assist operation may be affected. SEAT
recommends visiting a SEAT dealership for
this purpose. CAUTION
If you have the sensation that the radar
sensor is damaged or has lost its settings, disconnect the Fr ont Assist. This will av

oid
possible dangerous situations caused by a
system malfunction. If this occurs have it
adjusted.
