Trips abroad
In some countries, certain safety regulations
can be in for
ce that differ from the vehicle's
technical characteristics. Before travelling
abroad, SEAT recommends you consult a
technical service about the legal require-
ments and the following points:
●
Does the vehicle need technical modifica-
tions for driving abroad, for example, adjust-
ment of the headlamps?
●
Does the vehicle have all the tools, diag-
nostics equipment and spare parts r
equired
for inspections and repairs?
●
Are there any SEAT dealers in the destina-
tion country?
●
Will it be possible to find operating fluids
that meet SEAT specifications in the country
of destination?
●
Are special tyres required in the destination
country?
CAUTION
SEAT does not accept liability for any dam-
age to the v
ehicle due to an inadequate
service or the non-availability of genuine
spare parts.

Automatic off
The GRA disconnects automatically or is
temporarily interrupted:

If the system detects a fault that could af-
fect the working order of the CCS.
●
If you press and maintain the accelerator
pedal for a certain time, driving faster than
the stored speed.
●
If the dynamic driving control systems inter-
vene, ASR, ESC, etc.
●
If the brake pedal is pressed.
●
If the airbag is triggered.
●
If the lever is taken out of the D/B position.
●
If the emergency braking function in the city
brakes the vehicle.
WARNING

ver
e injuries if it is not possible to drive at a
constant speed maintaining the safety dis-
tance.

tance from the vehicle in front is insuffi-
