Driving
For vehicles with the optical parking system
(OPS), the inf
ot
ainment syst
em screen dis-
plays the detected zones in front of and be-
hind the vehicle, indicating - within the limits
of the system - the position of obstacles in re-
lation to the vehicle.
The park assist system cannot be switched
on if the factory-fitted towing bracket is elec-
trically connected to a trailer.
WARNING
Despite the assistance provided by the
park assist system, do not run any risks
when parking. The system is not a r
eplace-
ment for driver awareness.
Unintentional movements of the vehicle
could cause serious injury.
Adjust your speed and driving style to vis-
ibility, road, traffic and weather conditions.
The surface of certain objects and items
of clothing and external sound sources
may have a negative affect on the park as-
sist signals or on the system sensors or
may not reflect its signals.
The sensors have blind spots in which ob-
stacles and people are not registered.
Always observe the area around the vehi-
cle, as the sensors do not always detect
small children, animals or objects.
CAUTION
The park assist system aims ex
clusively
at other parked vehicles, without taking
curbs or other circumstances into account.
Make sure you do not damage the tyres
and wheel rims when parking. Where nec-
essary, stop manoeuvring to avoid damag-
ing the vehicle.
The sensors may not always be able to
detect objects such as trailer draw bars,
thin rails, fences, posts and trees, etc. This
could result in damage to your car.
Although the parking distance warning
system detects and warns of the presence
of an obstacle, the obstacle could disap-
pear from the angle of measurement of the
sensors if it is too high or low and the sys-
tem would no longer show it. Therefore, it
will not warn you of these objects. Ignoring
the warnings of the parking sensor system
could cause considerable damage to the
vehicle. This is also valid when using the
park assist (e.g. to park behind a truck or
motorcycle). Therefore, always keep a
close watch on the area in front of and be-
hind the vehicle while parking, and inter-
vene promptly if necessary.
To ensure that the system works properly,
the bumper sensors must be kept clean,
free of ice and snow and uncovered.
The bumper sensors may become dam-
aged or misaligned, for example, when
parking.
When cleaning the sensors with high-
pressur
e or steam cleaning equipment,
spray the sensors briefly at a distance of
no less than 10 cm.
Note
Contact a specialised workshop with any
syst
em faults. SEAT r
ecommends taking
your car in for technical service.
