Operation
WARNING
The intelligent technology in the ACC cannot
overcome the system's inherent limitations
or change the laws of physics. If used negli-
gently or involuntarily, it may cause serious
accidents and injuries. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
●
Adapt your speed and safe distance to the
vehicle in front of you at all times to suit visi-
bility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
●
Do not use the ACC when visibility is bad,
on steep roads, with several bends or in slip-
pery circumstances such as snow, ice, rain or
loose gravel, or on flooded roads.
●
Never use the ACC when driving off-road or
on unpaved roads. The ACC has been de-
signed for use on paved roads only.
●
The ACC does not react on approaching a
fixed obstacle, such as the tail of a traffic
jam, a damaged vehicle or a vehicle stopped
at the traffic lights.
●
The ACC does not react to people or animal
or vehicles crossing your path or which ap-
proach you head-on in the same lane.
●
If the ACC does not reduce speed sufficient-
ly, brake the vehicle immediately by applying
the pedal.
●
If you are driving using the spare wheel,
the ACC system could automatically switch
off during the journey. Switch off the system
when starting off.
●
If the vehicle continues to move involuntar-
ily after a driver intervention prompt, brake
the vehicle by applying the pedal.
●
If the dash panel displays a driver interven-
tion prompt, adjust the distance yourself.
●
The driver shou
ld be ready to accelerate or
brake by him/herself at all times.
CAUTION
If you have the sensation that the radar sen-
sor is damaged, disconnect the ACC. This will
avoid possible damage. If this occurs have it
adjusted.
●
Repairs to the radar sensor require special-
ist knowledge and special tools. SEAT recom-
mends visiting a SEAT dealership for this pur-
pose.
Note
●
If the ACC system does not work as descri-
bed in this chapter, do not use it until it has
been checked by a specialised workshop.
SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT dealership
for this purpose.
●
Maximum speed with the ACC activated is
limited to 160 km/h (100 mph).
●
When the ACC is switched on, strange
noises may be heard during automatic brak-
ing cause by the braking system.
