Driving
●
In order to become f
amiliar with the sys-
tem and its functions, SEAT recommends
that you practice operating the Park Assist
system in an area where there is not too
much traffic or in a car park.
Description of the parking assist
system
The components of the Park Assist system
are the ultrasonic sensors l
ocated in the front
and rear bumpers, the button to switch the
system on and off and the messages on the
instrument panel display.
Prerequisites for parking
●
The traction control (TCS) must be switch-
ed on
›››
page 259.
●
Speed when passing next to the parking
space: do not exceed approx. 50 km/h (31
mph).
●
Keep a distance between 0.5 and 2.0 me-
tres when driving past the parking space.
●
Space length (parallel parking): vehicle
length + 0.8 meters.
●
Space width (angle parking): vehicle width
+ 0.8 meters.
●
Do not exceed approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph) when parking. The vehicle will per-
form an automatic braking only once if this
speed is exceeded. If you exceed the speed
more than once, the Park Assist system
switches off.
Requirements for leaving the parking
space (only for parallel parking)
●
The traction control (TCS) must be switch-
ed on
›››
page 259.
●
Space length: length of the vehicle + 0.5
metres.
●
Do not exceed approximately 7 km/h
(4 mph) when exiting the parking space.
Prematurely stopping or automatically in-
terrupting the manoeuvres for parking or
exiting a parking space
Park Assist interrupts the manoeuvres for
parking or exiting a parking space in any of
the following cases:
●
Press button in the infotainment system,
> Driver assistance > Park Assist sys-
tem.
●
When exceeding a speed of approximately
7 km/h (4 mph) more than once.
●
The driver takes control of the steering
wheel.
●
The parking manoeuvre does not end within
6 minutes from the activation of automatic
steering.
●
There is a fault in the system (the system is
temporarily unavailable).
●
The TCS is disconnected.
●
TCS or ESC intervene with regulation.
●
The driver door is opened.
To restart the manoeuvre it is necessary that
none of these things occur and that the
button on the infotainment system is pressed
again.
Special characteristics
The Park Assist system is subject to certain
limitations inherent to the system. For exam-
ple, it is therefore not possible to enter or exit
a parking space on sharp bends.
While entering or exiting a parking space, a
brief signal sounds to prompt the driver to
change between forward and reverse gears
(depending on the case). In successive ma-
noeuvres, the assistant tells the driver to
change gears, at the latest, when the contin-
uous audible signal is given (object present at
a distance of ≤30 cm) by Park Pilot.
When the Park Assist system turns the steer-
ing wheel with the vehicle stationary, the in-
strument panel also displays the symbol .
Keep the brake pedal depressed while the
symbol remains on the dash panel display to
turn the wheels with the vehicle stopped. This
way, the system will require fewer manoeu-
vres to complete the parking action.
