Fig. 135 Sensor detection zones.
The radar sensors are located on the left and
right of the bumper and are not visible from the
›››
outside Fig. 134. The sensors monitor both
the blind spot and traffic behind the vehicle
›››
Fig. 135.
They support the following functions:
●
Lane departure warning (Side Assist)
›››
page 205.
●
Rear cross traffic alert (RCTA)
Automatic deactivation of supported func-
tions
The rear radar sensors deactivate automati-
cally when, among other reasons, one of the
sensors is detected to be permanently covered.
This may be the case if, for example, there is a
layer of snow or ice over one of the sensors.
The relevant text message will appear in the
instrument panel display.

NOTICE
●
The radar sensors on the rear bumper may
be damaged or shifted in the event of a colli-
sion, for example, when entering or exiting a
parking space. This may result in the system
disconnecting itself, or at least possibly hav-
ing 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 de-
parture warning's functions may be limited or
work incorrectly if other paints are used.

●
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 auto lane changing or the rear
cross traffic alert if the radar sensors are
dirty.
●
Radar operation may also be affected if
objects such as bicycle racks or luggage
racks interfere with the visibility of the ra-
dars.
Ultrasound sensors
The bumpers are fitted with ultrasound sensors
to perform the following functions:
›››
●
Park Assist page 219.
›››
●
Park assist plus page 214.
›››
●
Rear park assist page 217.
NOTICE
●
Damage to the radiator grille, bumper,
wheel arch and vehicle underbody can mod-
ify the orientation of the sensors. This can af-
fect the parking aid function. Have the func-
tion checked by a specialised workshop.
●
A number plate or number plate holder
with dimensions that exceed the space for
the number plate, or a cured or deformed
number plate can cause false detections or a
loss of visibility for the sensors.
Note
● In order to guarantee good operation, keep
the sensors clean, free of snow and ice, and
do not cover them with stickers or other ob-
jects.
● If you use high-pressure or vapour equip-
ment for cleaning, do not apply it directly,
unless you do so very briefly, and always
keep a distance of more than 10 cm away.
