Driver assistance systems
●
If the Emergency Assist does not operate
properly, switch off the Lane Assist
›››
page 293 . Doing so will also switch off
the Emergency Assist.
● Have the system checked by a special-
ised workshop. SEAT recommends visiting a
SEAT dealership for this.
Note
●
Automatic interventions by the Emergen-
cy Assist on the brakes may be interrupted
by pressing the accelerator or brake or by
moving the wheel.
●
Hazard warning lights that come on auto-
matically can be switched off by pressing
the accelerator or the break, moving the
steering wheel or pressing the hazard
warning light switch.
●
If this occurs, the Emergency Assist may
decelerate the vehicle until it comes to a
complete stop.
● When the Emergency Assist is activated,
it is only available again after the ignition
has been switched off and back on again.
Blind spot detector (BSD)
with parking assistance
(RCTA)*
Introduction

The blind spot detector (BSD) helps to detect
the traffic situation behind the vehicle.
The integrated parking assistant (RCTA) helps
the driver when backing out of a parallel
parking spot and in manoeuvring.
The blind spot detector has been developed
for driving on paved roads.
WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into
the blind spot detector (BSD) with parking
assistance (RCTA) included cannot over-
come the limits imposed by the laws of
physics; it only works within the limits of the
system. Accidents and severe injury may
occur if the blind spot detection system or
the rear cross traffic alert are used negli-
gently or involuntarily. The system is not a
replacement for driver awareness.
● Adapt your speed and safe distance to
the vehicle in front of you at all times to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
●
Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
to be ready to intervene in the steering at
any time.
●
Pay attention to the control lamps that
may come on in the external rear view mir-
rors and on the instrument panel, and fol-
low any instructions they may give.
● The blind spot assistant could react to
any special constructions that might be
present on the sides of the vehicle: e.g. high
or irregular dividers. This may cause erro-
neous warnings.
●
Never use the blind spot detector with
rear cross traffic alert on unpaved roads.
The blind spot detector with rear cross traf-
fic alert has been designed for use on
paved roads.
●
Always pay attention to the vehicle's sur-
roundings.
●
Never use the blind spot detector or the
parking assistant if the radar sensors are
dirty.
●
The external rear view mirror control
lamps may have limited functionality due
to solar radiation.
