Towing bracket device*
Trailer mode
Introduction
Take into account country-specific regula-
tions about driving with a trailer and the use
of a towing bracket.
The vehicle has been developed primarily for
carrying people, although it can also be used
to tow a trailer if fitted with the corresponding
technical equipment. This additional load has
an effect on the useful life, fuel consumption
and vehicle performance and in some cases
can reduce the service intervals.
Driving with a trailer requires more force from
the vehicle, and thus more concentration
from the driver.
In winter, winter tyres should be fitted on both
the vehicle
and
the trailer.
Maximum vertical load technically per-
missible on the coupling
The
maximum
vertical load technically per-
mitted from the trailer draw bar on the towing
bracket's tow hitch is
80 kg
.
Vehicles with the Start-Stop system
If the vehicle has a factory-fitted towing
bracket or one that is retrofitted by SEAT, the
Start-Stop system operates as normal. No
special characteristics need to be taken into
account.
If the system does not recognise the trailer or
the trailer bracket has not been retrofitted by
SEAT, the Start-Stop system must be discon-
nected by pressing the corresponding button
in the lower part of the centre console before
driving with the trailer, and it should remain
off for the rest of the journey
Vehicles with driving profile selection
If you are going to be towing a trailer, the use
of the
Eco
driving profile is not recommen-
ded. You are advised to select another of the
available driving profiles before beginning to
drive with a trailer.
WARNING
Never use the trailer to transport people,
since it would put their life in danger and is
also prohibited.
WARNING
Undue use of the towing bracket may
cause injury and accidents.
●
Only use the towing bracket if it is in a
perfect state of repair and is properly se-
cured.
●
Never modify or repair the towing bracket
in any way.
