Assistant systems
●
If you pr
ess the accelerator pedal the
ACC will stop working. Therefore, it will not
brake or request any braking intervention.
●
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.
●
Do not use the ACC in poor visibility, or
on roads that are steep, with lots of curves
or slippery.
●
Never use ACC when driving off-road or
on unpaved roads.
●
The system may not react in time to sta-
tionary obstacles (such as a traffic jam
queue), particularly at high speeds. React
soon enough to avoid a hazardous situa-
tion.
●
The system may not react to stopped ve-
hicles in the same lane. You must react ear-
ly enough yourself in this case.
●
The system does not react to people, ani-
mals or vehicles that are crossing or ap-
proaching in the opposite direction.
●
If you are driving with a spare wheel fit-
ted, the ACC system could automatically
switch off. Switch off the system when
starting off.
●
Brake immediately if the ACC does not
slow down enough.
●
Brake immediately when a driver inter-
vention instruction is displayed on the in-
strument cluster screen.
●
If the vehicle continues t
o move involun-
tarily after a driver intervention prompt,
brake the vehicle.
●
The brake pedal may move downwards
during braking. Be careful not to position
your foot under the pedal.
Note
If the ACC does not work as described in
this chapter, do not use it until it has been
checked by a specialised workshop. CUPRA
recommends visiting a specialised CUPRA
dealer or any SEAT dealership.
