Lane departure warning
(Side Assist) with rear cross
traffic alert (RCTA) and door
opening warning (Exit As-
sist)*
Introduction
The lane departure warning (LCA) helps de-
tect traffic that is at the rear of the vehicle.
The rear cross traffic alert (RCTA) helps the
driver when backing out of a parallel parking
spot and when manoeuvring.
The door opening warning (EWA) alerts the
occupant of a possible danger approaching
Driver assistance systems
from behind when opening or when any of
the vehicle's doors are open.
The lane departure warning has been devel-
oped for driving on paved roads.
WARNING
The smart technology incorporated into
the lane departure warning (LCA) with rear
cross traffic alert (RCTA) and the door
opening warning included cannot over-
come the limits imposed by the laws of
physics; it only works within the limits of the
system. Accidents and severe injury may
occur if the lane departure warning or the
rear cross traffic alert are used negligently
or involuntarily. The system is not a re-
placement for driver awareness.
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.
Keep your hands on the wheel at all times
●
to be ready to intervene in the steering at
any time.
Bear in mind the control lamps of the lane
●
departure warning, the messages on the in-
strument panel display, as well as the
acoustic signals on the door speakers and
act according to what they indicate.
The lane departure warning could react
●
to any special constructions that might be
present to the sides of the vehicle, e.g. high
or irregular dividers. This may cause erro-
neous warnings.
The visibility of radar sensors may be af-
●
fected due to leaves, snow, strong haze or
dirt, among others. Clean the area in front
of the sensors.
Never use the lane departure warning on
●
unpaved roads. The lane departure warn-
ing has been designed for use on paved
roads.
Always pay attention to the vehicle's sur-
●
roundings.
Never use the lane departure warning,
●
the rear cross traffic alert or the door
opening warning if the radar sensors are
dirty.
The control lamps of the lane departure
●
warning may have limited functionality due
to solar radiation.
CAUTION
The radar sensors on the rear bumper
●
may be damaged or shifted in the event of
a collision, for example, when entering or
exiting a parking space. This may result in
the system disconnecting itself, or at least
possibly having its functionality diminished.
In order to ensure that the radar sensors
●
work properly, keep the rear bumper free of
snow and ice and do not cover it.
The rear bumper should only be painted
●
with paint authorised by SEAT. The lane
