Note
The headlights, rear lights and turn signals may mist up temporarily on the
inside in cool or damp weather. This is normal and in no way effects the useful
life of the vehicle lighting system.
Adhesive strips for headlights or adjusting headlights
In those countries where vehicles drive on the other side of the road to the
home country, the asymmetric dipped beam may dazzle drivers of oncoming
vehicles. Therefore, when driving abroad, adhesive strips should be attached
to the headlights or the headlights should be adjusted accordingly.
The direction of the headlights can be adjusted from the instrument panel, in
the menu Settings submenu Travel mode page 70.
For those vehicles in which it is not possible to adjust the headlights from the
menu, adhesive strips are used to cover certain parts of the headlamp cover
or the headlights may be adjusted at a specialised workshop. For further
information, please refer to a specialised workshop. SEAT recommends
visiting a qualified workshop.
Note
The use of Travel mode and adhesive strips on the headlights is only author-
ised for a short period of time. To modify the direction of the headlamps more
permanently, please take the vehicle to a specialised workshop. SEAT recom-
mends visiting a qualified workshop.
