Driving
system must be disconnected manually
whenever driving with a trailer. Otherwise
the brake system could be damaged and
could consequently cause a serious acci-
dent or injury.
Always disconnect the Start-Stop system
manually when using a towing bracket that
has not been fitted by a CUPRA workshop.
Note
Before hitching or unhitching a trailer, al-
ways deactivate the anti-theft alarm
page 90. Otherwise, the tilt sensor could
cause the alarm to go off.
Do not drive with a trailer for the engine's
first 1000 km
page 212 .
CUPRA recommends that, if possible, the
tow hook be removed or covered when it is
not going to be used. In the event of a rear-
end collision, the damage to the vehicle
could be greater if the tow hook is fitted.
Some retrofitted towing brackets cover
the rear towing eye. In these cases, the
towing eye should not be used for tow-
starting or for towing other vehicles. For
this reason, if the vehicle has been retrofit-
ted with a towing bracket, always keep the
tow hook in the vehicle when you remove it.
Technical requirements
Vehicles that are factory-mounted with a
towing device meet all the technical and le-
gal requirements for driving with a trailer
page 281.
If the vehicle is retrofitted with a towing
bracket, only a bracket that is authorised for
the maximum authorised load of the trailer
that is to be towed may be fitted. The towing
bracket must be suitable for the vehicle and
the trailer and must be properly secured to
the vehicle's chassis. Only use a towing
bracket that has been authorised by CUPRA
for this vehicle. Always check and take into
account the towing bracket manufacturer's
instructions.
Towing bracket fitted on the bumper
Never fit a towing bracket to the bumper or
to the area where the bumper is mounted.
The towing bracket should not impair the
bumper's function. Do not make modifica-
tions or repairs to the exhaust system or the
brake system. Make regular checks to ensure
that the towing bracket is secure.
Engine cooling system
Driving with a trailer increases the load on
the engine and cooling system. The cooling
system should have sufficient coolant and be
prepared for the additional effort involved in
driving with a trailer.
Trailer brakes
If the trailer has its own brake system, please
take the relevant legal requirements into ac-
count. Never connect the trailer's brake sys-
tem to the vehicle's brake system.
Tow cable
Always use a cable between the vehicle and
the trailer
page 277 .
Trailer tail lights
The trailer's rear lights should comply with
the statutory safety regulations
page 277 .
Never connect the trailer's rear lights directly
to the vehicle's electric system. If you are not
sure that the trailer's electrical connection is
correct, have it checked by a specialised
workshop. To do so, CUPRA recommends
going to a specialised CUPRA dealer or any
SEAT dealership.
Exterior mirrors
If you cannot see the area behind the trailer
with the exterior mirrors of the towing vehi-
cle, additional mirrors will have to be instal-
led in accordance with the regulations of the
country in question. The exterior mirrors
should be adjusted before you start driving
and must provide a sufficient field of vision at
the rear.
