Trailer towing
WARNING (continued)
Trailers with a high centre of gravity can overturn more easily than
trailers with a low centre of gravity.
Avoid brusque manoeuvres and sudden braking.
Always take the following precautions seriously.
Reduce your speed immediately if you observe the trailer rocking from
side to side.
Never drive at more than 80 km an hour when towing a trailer (or 100
km an hour in exceptional circumstances). This also applies in countries
where higher speeds are permitted. Always take the speed limits for vehi-
cles with and without trailers in each country into account.
Never try to stop the "snaking" by increasing speed.
WARNING
When driving with a trailer and using a trailer hitch that was not installed
by SEAT, the Start-Stop function must be manually deactivated. Otherwise,
this could cause a braking anomaly that could result in an accident with
serious consequences.
Always manually deactivate the Start-Stop function when a trailer is
being used on a trailer hitch that has not been installed by SEAT.
Note
Always turn off the anti-theft alarm system before connecting or discon-
necting a trailer
page 81. Otherwise, the tilt sensor may erroneously acti-
vate the alarm.
Never use a trailer with a new engine (for the first 1000 km or 600 miles)
page 257.
At SEAT, we recommend folding in the trailer hitch ball when a trailer is not
being used. In case of a rear collision, the damage caused to the vehicle with
the extended trailer hitch ball could be more extensive.
In some models, a trailer hitch is necessary for towing vehicles. For this
reason, you should store the tow hitch in the vehicle at all times.
