Parking and manoeuvring
217
Parking aid system (Park Assist)
WARNING
Quick turns of the steering wheel when park-
ing or e
xiting a parking space with Park As-
sist can cause serious injury.
●
Do not hold the steering wheel during ma-
noeuvres to park or exit a parking space un-
til the system requests it. Doing so disables
the system during the manoeuvre, resulting
in the parking being cancelled.
NOTICE
●
In certain circumstances, the ultrasonic
sensors do not det
ect objects such as trailer
tongues, bars, fences, posts or thin trees, or
an open (or opening) rear lid, which could
damage the vehicle.
●
Retrofitting of certain accessories to the
vehicle, such as a bicycle rack, may interfere
with the operation of the Park Assist system
and cause damage.
●
The Park Assist system uses as a reference
parked vehicles, curbs and other objects.
Make sure that the tyres and wheels are not
damaged while parking. If necessary, oppor-
tunely interrupt the parking manoeuvre to
avoid damaging the vehicle.
●
The ultrasound sensors on the bumper may
be damaged or shifted in the event of a colli-
sion, for example, when entering or exiting a
parking space.
●
If you use high-pressure or vapour equip-
ment t
o clean the ultrasound sensors, do not
apply it directly unless very briefly and al-
ways from a distance of more than 10 cm.
●
A registration plate or plate holder on the
front with larger than the space for the reg-
istration plate, or a registration plate that is
curved or warped can cause:
–
False detections.
–
The sensors to lose visibility.
–
Cancellation of the parking manoeuvre
or defective parking.
●
If one of the ultrasonic sensors is dam-
aged, the area corresponding to that group
of sensors (front or rear) is deactivated and
cannot be activated until the fault is correc-
ted. However, you can still use the sensors
of the other bumper as per usual. If there
is a fault in the system, consult a specialist
workshop. SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT
dealership for this.
Note
●
In order to guarantee good system oper-
ation, k
eep the ultrasound sensors of the
bumper clean, free of snow or ice, and do not
cover them with adhesives or other objects.
●
Certain sources of noise, such as rough as-
phalt or paving stones and the noise of other
vehicles can induce the Park Assist system
or ParkPilot to give erroneous warnings. The
presence of metal objects can also aect
the manoeuvre.
●
In order to become familiar with the system
and its functions, SEAT r
ecommends that you
practice operating the Park Assist system in
an area where there is not too much trac or
in a car park.
