WARNING
The elastic baggage net stretches when it is
secured t
o the luggage compartment fasten-
ing rings. The secured baggage net is taut.
The hooks on the net can cause injury if the
net is incorrectly hooked or unhooked.
●
Always ensure that the hooks do not sud-
denly release from the fastening rings when
hooking or un-hooking.
●
Always keep your face and eyes protected
at a safe distance to avoid injury should a
hook slip while hooking or unhooking.
●
Always engage the hooks in the order giv-
en. If a baggage net hook springs back this
can cause injury.
Roof carrier*
Intr
oduction
The vehicle roof has been designed to opti-
mi
se aer
ody
namics. For this reason, conven-
tional roof carrier systems cannot be secured
to the roof water drain channel.
Given that the water drains have been incor-
porated into the roof for aerodynamic rea-
sons, only the SEAT approved basic supports
and roof carrier systems can be used.
When should the roof carrier system be re-
moved?
●
When it is not being used.
●
When the vehicle is being washed in a car
wash.
●
When the vehicle height exceeds the maxi-
mum height (e.g. in a garage).
WARNING
The risk of an accident is increased by trans-
porting he
avy or bulky loads on the roof,
which affects the car's handling by shifting
the centre of gravity and increasing suscepti-
bility to cross winds.
●
Always secure loads correctly with suitable
and undamaged attachment rope or straps.
●
Large, heavy, wide and flat loads negatively
affect the vehicle aerodynamics, centre of
gravity and handling.
●
Avoid brusque manoeuvres and sudden
braking.
●
Adjust your speed and driving style to visi-
bility, road, traffic and weather conditions.
CAUTION
●
Alwa
ys remove the roof carrier system from
the roof before entering a car wash.
●
The height of your vehicle is changed by
the installation of the roof carrier and the
load secured on it. Compare the vehicle
height with the passage height, for example
in underground car parks or for garage doors.
