Acc Operation; Radar Sensors; Start Regulation - Seat Ateca 2020 Owner's Manual

Radar sensors

The ACC uses the front radar technology.
Read its maintenance instructions and infor-
mation about its limitations
WARNING
The ACC's technology cannot overcome
the system's inherent limitations or change
the laws of physics. If used negligently or
involuntarily, it may cause serious acci-
dents and injuries. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
Always be prepared to brake or acceler-
●
ate.
If you press the accelerator pedal the
●
ACC will stop working. Therefore, it will not
brake or request any braking intervention.
Adapt your speed and safe distance to
●
the vehicle in front of you at all times to suit
visibility, weather, road and traffic condi-
tions.
Do not use the ACC in poor visibility, or
●
on roads that are steep, with lots of curves
or slippery.
Never use ACC when driving off-road or
●
on unpaved roads.
The system does not react to stationary
●
obstacles (such as a traffic jam queue). Re-
act soon enough to avoid a hazardous sit-
uation.
The system does not react to people, ani-
●
mals or vehicles that are crossing or ap-
proaching in the opposite direction.

If you are driving with a spare wheel fit-
●
ted, the ACC system could automatically
switch off. Switch off the system when
starting off.

Brake immediately if the ACC does not
●
slow down enough.
Brake immediately when a driver inter-
●
vention instruction is displayed on the in-
strument cluster screen.
If the vehicle continues to move involun-
●
tarily after a driver intervention prompt,
brake the vehicle.
Note
If the ACC does not work as described in
this chapter, do not use it until it has been
checked by a specialised workshop. Visit-
ing a SEAT dealership is recommended.

The ACC does not regulate anything yet
(standby).

Start regulation

●
›››
The ACC sets the current speed, or the clos-
est speed within the valid range (30-210
km/h), as the cruise speed.
With manual transmission, the gear lever
must be in any gear except first and reverse,
and the speed must be higher than approxi-
mately 30 km/h (18 mph). On vehicles with

ACC operation
