Towing bracket device*
●
In order to reduce the danger of injury in
the event of rear-end collisions and to
avoid injury to pedestrians and cyclists
when parking the vehicle, cover or remove
the tow hitch when you are not using a trail-
er.
●
Never fit a towing bracket “with weight
distribution” or “load compensation”. The
vehicle has not been designed for this type
of towing bracket. The towing bracket
could fail and the trailer could be released
from the vehicle.
WARNING
Driving with a trailer and transporting
heavy or large objects can affect driving
properties and even cause an accident.
●
Always secure the load properly using
belts or straps that are suitable and in
good condition.
●
Adapt your speed and driving style at all
times to suit visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions.
●
Trailers with a high centre of gravity are
more likely to overturn than those with a
low one.
●
Avoid sudden braking and manoeuvres.
●
Take great care when overtaking.
●
Reduce speed immediately if you notice
that the trailer is swaying, however slightly.
●
Never drive at more than 80 km/h
(50 mph) when towing a trailer (or at more
than 100 km/h (60 mph) in exceptional cir-
cumstances). This also applies in countries
where driving at higher speeds is permit-
ted. Take into account the speed limit for
vehicles with trailers in the corresponding
country, as it could be less than the speed
limit for vehicles without a trailer.
●
Never attempt to “straighten” the towing
vehicle and trailer while accelerating.
WARNING
If the towing bracket has been retrofitted
by a non-SEAT workshop, the Start-Stop
system must be disconnected manually
whenever driving with a trailer. Otherwise
the brake system could be damaged and
could consequently cause a serious acci-
dent or injury.
●
Always disconnect the Start-Stop system
manually when using a towing bracket that
has not been fitted by a SEAT workshop.
Note
●
Before hitching or unhitching a trailer, al-
ways deactivate the anti-theft alarm
. Otherwise, the tilt sensor
could cause the alarm to go off.
●
Do not drive with a trailer for the engine's
first 1000 km
●
SEAT recommends that, if possible, the
tow hitch be disassembled or covered
when it is not going to be used. In the event
of a rear-end collision, the damage to the
vehicle could be greater if the bracket is fit-
ted.
●
Some retrofitted towing brackets cover
the rear towing eye. In these cases, the
towing eye should not be used for tow-
starting or for towing other vehicles. For
this reason, if the vehicle has been retrofit-
ted with a towing bracket, always keep the
tow hitch in the vehicle when you disas-
semble it.

Lamp on button lights up
The tow hitch is not securely locked in position.
Check that the towing bracket is locked

Some warning and control lamps will light up
briefly when the ignition is switched on to
check certain functions. They will switch off
after a few seconds.
WARNING
If the warning lamps and the corresponding
messages are ignored when they light up,
the vehicle may stall in traffic and cause
accidents and severe injuries.
●
Never ignore the warning lamps or mes-
sages.
