Seat LEON 2019 Owner's Manual page 277

The area in front of and around the radar
sensor should not be covered with adhesives,
additional or similar headlights, as this may
negatively affect Front Assist operation.
If the front of the vehicle is not properly re-
paired or structural modifications are made
to it, Front Assist operation may be affected.
SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT dealership
for this purpose.
CAUTION
If you have the feeling that the radar sensor
is damaged or has lost its settings, discon-
nect the Front Assist. This will avoid possi-
ble dangerous situations caused by the in-
adequate operation of the system. If this
occurs have it adjusted.
The sensor may not be adjusted correct-
●
ly if it receives an impact. This may com-
promise the system's efficacy or discon-
nect it.
Repairs to the radar sensor require spe-
●
cialist knowledge and special tools. SEAT
recommends visiting a SEAT dealership for
this purpose.
A registration plate or plate holder on the
●
front that is larger than the space for the
registration plate, or a registration plate
that is curved or warped can cause the ra-
dar to malfunction.
Clean away the snow with a brush and
●
the ice preferably with a solvent-free de-
icer spray.
