If the hazard warning lights are not working,
you must use an alternative method of draw-
ing attention to your vehicle. This method
must comply with traffic legislation.
Note
●
The vehicle battery will discharge and run
down if the hazard warning lights remain on
for too much time (even with the ignition
turned off).
In some vehicles, the brake lights flash
●
when braking occurs suddenly at a speed of
approximately 80 km/h (50 mph) to alert ve-
hicles behind. If braking continues, the haz-
ard warning lights system will automatically
be turned on at a speed of less than approxi-
mately 10 km/h (6 mph). The brake lights re-
main lit. Upon accelerating, the hazard warn-
ing lights will be automatically turned off.
Adjusting the headlights
In those countries where vehicles drive on
the other side of the road to the home coun-
try, the asymmetric dipped beam may dazzle
drivers of oncoming vehicles.
For this reason, stickers may be needed to
cover the headlights when driving abroad.
For further information, please refer to a spe-
cialised workshop. SEAT recommends visiting
a technical service.
Lights and visibility
Note
The use of stickers to cover headlights is only
permitted over a short period. To modify the
direction of the headlamps more permanent-
ly, please take the vehicle to a specialised
workshop. SEAT recommends taking your car
in for technical service.

Instrument and switch lighting
When the side lights or dipped beam head-
lights are switched on, the lighting for instru-
ments and controls lights up at a constant
brightness.
WARNING
Heavy objects in the vehicle may mean that
the headlights dazzle and distract other driv-
is
ers. This could result in a serious accident.
Adjust the light beam to the vehicle load
