Driver assistance systems
assumes the responsibility of braking in
time.
The City Safety Assist function cannot pre-
vent ac
cidents or serious injury by itself.
The City Safety Assist system may carry out
unwanted brake interventions in complex
driving situations e.g. when a vehicle crosses
at a short distance.
WARNING
Relying on the City Safety Assist system in
c
ity driv
ing as part of one's driving behaviour
may cause accidents and serious injury. The
system is not a replacement for driver aware-
ness.
Always adapt your speed and the distance
to the vehicles ahead in line with visibility,
weather conditions, the condition of the road
and the traffic situation.
The City Safety Assist function does not re-
act to people, animals or vehicles that cross
or move in the opposite direction in the same
lane.
If after switching on the City Safety Assist
function the vehicle begins to move, slow the
vehicle with the foot brake.
CAUTION
If you suspect that the City Safety Assist la-
ser feat
ure is damaged, disconnect it. This
will avoid additional damage.
Any r
epair of the laser sensor requires spe-
cialised skills. SEAT recommends taking your
car in for technical service.
Note
If
the City
Safety Assist function activates a
brake, the brake pedal range is reduced. This
makes the brake pedal seem “harder”.
Automatic brake intervention by the City
Safety Assist function can be cancelled by
pressing the clutch pedal, the accelerator
pedal or by a corrective intervention.
During automatic braking by the City Safety
Assist function you may hear unusual noises.
This is normal and is produced in the brake
system.
