Driving
reverse driving lights or other sources of
electrical current.
CAUTION
●
Avoid corners, and sudden and sharp
braking.

Once the trailing arm has been removed,
place the corresponding cover on the hole
of the fastening point. This prevents dirt
from entering the hole – see the trailer sys-
tem assembly manual.
Note
●
In the event of frequent journeys with a
trailer, we recommend also having the ve-
hicle inspected in between the service in-
tervals.
●
When connecting and disconnecting the
trailer, the handbrake must be applied.

For technical reasons, trailers with LED
reverse lights cannot be incorporated into
the vehicle anti-theft alarm system.

a genuine SEAT accessory.
The towing device has a maximum vertical
load of
50 kg .
