Driver assistance systems
–
Obj
ects with certain surfaces or struc-
tures, such as wire mesh fences or pow-
der snow.
●
Certain surfaces of objects and garments
do not reflect the ultrasound sensors' sig-
nals. The system cannot detect, at least cor-
rectly, these objects or people wearing such
clothes.
●
Ultrasound sensor signals may be affected
by external sound sources. In certain circum-
stances this may prevent them from detect-
ing people or objects.
●
Please note that low obstacles detected by
the system may no longer be registered by
the sensors as the car moves closer, so the
system will not give any further warning. In
certain circumstances, objects such as high
kerbs that could damage the bottom of the
vehicle are not detected either.
●
If the first warning from the Park Pilot is ig-
nored, the vehicle could suffer considerable
damage.
●
The knocks or damage on the radiator
grille, bumper, wheel arch and vehicle under-
body can adjust the orientation of the sen-
sors. This can affect the parking aid function.
Have the function checked by a specialised
workshop.
Note
●
In cert
ain situations, the system can give a
warning even though there is no obstacle in
the detected area, e.g:
–
with rough or c
obbled floors or ground
with long grass;
–
with external ultrasound sources, such as
cleaning vehicles or other vehicles;
–
In downpours, intense snow or dense ex-
haust gases;
–
if the registration plate (front or rear) is
not properly affixed to the bumper sur-
face;
–
or in locations such as the brow of a hill.
●
In order to guarantee good system opera-
tion, keep the ultrasound sensors clean, free
of snow or ice, and do not cover them with
adhesives or other objects.
●
If you use high-pressure or vapour equip-
ment to clean the ultrasound sensors, apply
it directly only very briefly and always from a
distance of more than 10 cm.
●
Retrofitting of accessories to the vehicle,
such as a bicycle carrier, may interfere with
the operation of the Parking Aid.
●
In order to familiarise yourself with the sys-
tem, it is advised that you practice parking in
an area or car park that is free from traffic.
There must be good weather and light condi-
tions.
●
The volume and tone of the warnings can
be modified, in addition to the indications
››› page 180.
●
In vehicles without a driver information
system, these parameters can be modified in
a SEAT Official Service or in a specialised
workshop.

Plea
se observe information on towing a
trailer ››› page 181.

The display on the Easy Connect screen
shows a slight time delay.
Rear parking aid*
The rear Parking Aid assists the driver in
parkin
g by means of audible warning
sounds.
Description
There are sensors integrated in the rear
bumper. When the sensors detect an obsta-
cle, you are alerted by audible warnings.
Make particularly sure that the sensors are
not covered by adhesives, residues and the
like, as this could affect the system's opera-
tion. Cleaning instructions ››› page 194.
The approximate measurement range of the
rear sensors is:
side area 0.60 m
central area 1.60 m
As you approach the obstacle, the time inter-
v
al
betw
een the audible warnings will be re-
duced. When you reach around 0.30 m the
warning will be constant: Do not continue to
move forward (or backward)
