Operation
Variable floor in the tilted position
When the
v
ari
able floor is tilted you can ac-
cess the spare wheel/anti-puncture kit area.
●
Lift the variable floor in the high position
using handle
1
, pull it up and push it to-
w
ar
d
s the backrest of the rear seats until the
floor folds along the hinge line and the mov-
able part of the floor is resting on itself.
●
Rest the floor on its housings ››› Fig. 171
(arrows).
WARNING
During a sudden driving or braking manoeu-
vre, or in the event
of an accident, objects
could be flung though the interior and cause
serious or fatal injuries.
●
Always secure objects, even when the lug-
gage compartment floor is properly lifted.
●
Only objects that do not protrude more
than 2/3 the height of the floor may be car-
ried between the rear seat and the raised lug-
gage compartment floor.
●
Only objects that do not weigh than ap-
proximately 7.5 kg may be carried between
the rear seat and the raised luggage compart-
ment floor.
CAUTION
●
The maximum w
eight that can be loaded on
the luggage compartment variable floor in
the top position is 150 kg.
●
Do not let
the luggage compartment floor
fall when closing it. Always carefully guide it
downwards in a controlled manner. Other-
wise, the lining and the floor of the luggage
compartment could be damaged.
Note
SEAT recommends the use of straps to secure
o
bj
ects to retaining rings.
Roof carrier*
Intr
oduction
The vehicle roof has been designed to opti-
mi
se aer
ody
namics. For this reason, cross
bars or conventional roof carrier systems can-
not be secured to the roof water drains.
As the roof water drains are integrated in the
roof to reduce air resistance, only SEAT-ap-
proved cross bars and roof carrier systems
can be used.
Cases in which cross bars and the roof carri-
er system should be disassembled.
●
When they are not used.
●
When the vehicle is washed in a car wash.
●
When the vehicle height exceeds the maxi-
mum height, for ex
ample, in some garages.
WARNING
When heavy or bulky loads are transported
on the roof c
arrier system, car driving per-
formance is affected, as the centre of gravity
shifts and there is greater wind resistance.
●
Always secure the load properly using belts
or retaining straps that are suitable and in a
good condition.
●
Bulky, heavy, long or flat loads have a neg-
ative effect on aerodynamics, the centre of
gravity and driving performance.
●
Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
CAUTION
●
Remov
e the cross bars and the roof carrier
system before entering a car wash.
●
Vehicle height is increased by the installa-
tion of cross bars or a roof carrier system and
the load secured on them. For this purpose,
check that your vehicle's height does not sur-
pass the headspace limit, for example, for un-
derpasses or for entering garage doors.
●
Cross bars, a roof carrier system and the
load secured on them should not interfere
with the roof aerial or hamper the path of the
panoramic sun roof ››› page 144 and the rear
lid.
●
On opening the rear lid make sure that it
does not knock into the roof load.
