Operation
●
Always secure objects, even when the lug-
gage compartment floor is properly lifted.
●
Only objects that do not protrude more
than 2/3 the height of the floor may be car-
ried between the rear seat and the raised lug-
gage compartment floor.
●
Only objects that do not weigh than ap-
proximately 7.5 kg may be carried between
the rear seat and the raised luggage compart-
ment floor.
CAUTION
●
The maximum weight that can be loaded on
the luggage compartment variable floor in
the top position is 150 kg.
●
Do not let the luggage compartment floor
fall when closing it. Always carefully guide it
downwards in a controlled manner. Other-
wise, the lining and the floor of the luggage
compartment could be damaged.
Note
SEAT recommends the use of straps to secure
objects to retaining rings.
Roof carrier
Introduction
The vehicle roof has been designed to opti-
mise aerodynamics. For this reason, cross
bars or conventional roof carrier systems can-
not be secured to the roof water drains.
As the roof water drains are integrated in the
roof to reduce air resistance, only SEAT-ap-
proved cross bars and roof carrier systems
can be used.
Cases in which cross bars and the roof
carrier system should be disassembled.
●
When they are not used.
●
When the vehicle is washed in a car wash.
●
When the vehicle height exceeds the maxi-
mum height, for example, in some garages.
WARNING
When heavy or bulky loads are transported
on the roof carrier system, car driving per-
formance is affected, as the centre of gravity
shifts and there is greater wind resistance.
●
Always secure the load properly using belts
or retaining straps that are suitable and in a
good condition.
●
Bulky, heavy, long or flat loads have a neg-
ative effect on aerodynamics, the centre of
gravity and driving performance.
●
Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
CAUTION
●
Remove the cross bars and the roof carrier
system before entering a car wash.
●
Vehicle height is increased by the installa-
tion of cross bars or a roof carrier system and
the load secured on them. For this purpose,
check that your vehicle's height does not sur-
pass the headspace limit, for example, for un-
derpasses or for entering garage doors.
●
Cross bars, a roof carrier system and the
load secured on them should not interfere
with the roof aerial or hamper the path of the
panoramic sun roof ››› page 92 and the rear
lid.
●
On opening the rear lid make sure that it
does not knock into the roof load.
For the sake of the environment
When cross bars and a roof carrier system are
installed, the increased air resistance means
that the vehicle uses more fuel.
