front of the vehicle, in a speed range of ap-
proximately 5-30 km/h (3-19 mph).
When the system detects a possible collision
with a vehicle in front, the vehicle prepares for
›››
a possible emergency braking
If the driver does not react to an imminent
collision, the system can automatically brake
the vehicle in order to reduce speed faced
with a possible collision. The system can help
to reduce the consequences of an accident.
If the City Safety Assist function determines
that the driver has braked insufficiently when
faced with an imminent collision, the system
can increase the brake force in order to re-
duce speed. The system can help to reduce
the consequences of an accident.
WARNING
The smart technology in the City Safety As-
sist system cannot change the limits im-
posed by the laws of physics and by the
system itself. The increased convenience
offered by the City Safety Assist system
should never prompt you to take risks. The
driver always assumes the responsibility of
braking in time.
The City Safety Assist function cannot
●
prevent accidents or serious injury by itself.
The City Safety Assist system may carry
●
out unwanted brake interventions in com-
plex driving situations e.g. when a vehicle
crosses at a short distance.

WARNING
Relying on the City Safety Assist system in
city driving as part of one's driving behav-
iour may cause accidents and serious in-
.
jury. The system is not a replacement for
driver awareness.
Always adapt your speed and the dis-
●
tance to the vehicles ahead in line with visi-
bility, weather conditions, the condition of
the road and the traffic situation.
The City Safety Assist function does not
●
react to people, animals or vehicles that
cross or move in the opposite direction in
the same lane.
If after switching on the City Safety Assist
●
function the vehicle begins to move, slow
the vehicle with the foot brake.
CAUTION
If you suspect that the City Safety Assist la-
ser sensor is damaged, switch it off. This
will avoid additional damage.
Any reparation of the laser sensor re-
●
quires specialist knowledge. SEAT recom-
mends taking your car in for technical serv-
ice.
Note
If the City Safety Assist function activates
●
a brake, the brake pedal range is reduced.
This makes the brake pedal seem "harder".
Automatic brake intervention by the City
●
Safety Assist function can be cancelled by
pressing the clutch pedal, the accelerator
pedal or by a corrective intervention.
During automatic braking by the City
●
Safety Assist function you may hear unusu-
al noises. This is normal and is produced in
the brake system.
