Transport and practical equipment
WARNING
If unsuitable or damaged belts or retaining
strap
s are used, they may break in the event
of braking or an accident. Objects could then
be launched across the passenger compart-
ment and cause serious or fatal injuries.
●
It is important to always use belts or retain-
ing straps that are suitable and in a good
condition.
●
Belts and retaining straps should be se-
curely fastened to the fastening rings.
●
Objects in the luggage compartment that
are unsecured could move suddenly and mod-
ify the handling of the vehicle.
●
Small light objects should also be fixed in
place.
●
A child seat should never be secured with
the fastening rings.
Note
●
The maximum t
ensile load that the fasten-
ing rings can support is 3.5 kN.
●
Belts and securing systems for the appro-
priate load can be obtained from specialised
dealerships. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT dealership for this.
Retaining hooks
Fig. 140 In the luggage compartment: retain-
in
g hook
s
There may be hooks in the upper left and
right
p
ar
t of the luggage compartment.
WARNING
Never use these hooks to secure objects. In
case of
sudden braking or an accident, they
could rupture.
CAUTION
The hooks can support a maximum of 2.5 kg
each.
Roof carrier
Intr
oduction
The vehicle roof has been designed to opti-
mise aerody
namics. For this reason, conven-
tional roof carrier systems cannot be secured
to the water drains.
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 the roof carrier system should be re-
moved:
●
When they are not used.
●
When the vehicle is being washed in a car
wash.
●
When the
vehicle height exceeds the maxi-
mum height, for example, in some garages.
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.
