Operation
SEAT recommends that towing brackets be
r
etr
ofitt
ed at a specialised workshop. For ex-
ample, it may very well be necessary to ad-
just the cooling system or mount thermal pro-
tection plates. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT dealership for this.
If a towing bracket is retrofitted, the distance
specifications should always be kept in
mind. The distance between the centre of the
spherical head and the road ››› Fig. 221
D
must never be less than that indicated. This
al
so ap
p
lies when the vehicle is fully loaded,
including the technically permissible maxi-
mum vertical load on the coupling device.
