Towing bracket device*
Turn the tow hitch under the bumper with
your hand until you feel and see that it en-
gages and the control lamp on the Fig. 235
button stays on.
Close the rear lid.
Meaning of control lamp
If the warning light of the button ›› Fig. 235
is flashing, this means that the tow hitch has
not been attached properly or is damaged
.
If the warning lamp stays on with the rear
lid open, the tow hitch is correctly in place
both when engaged and when covered.
The control lamp of the button will go off
approx. 1 minute after closing the rear lid.
WARNING
Undue use of the towing bracket may cause
injury and accidents.
Only use the tow hitch if it is properly en-
gaged.
Always ensure that no person, animal or
object is to be found in the path of the tow
hitch.
Never use a tool or instrument while the
tow hitch is moving.
Never press the ››Fig. 235 button when
there is a trailer hooked to the vehicle or
when a carrier system or other accessories
are mounted on the tow hitch.
If the tow hitch is not attached properly, do
not use it. Instead, go to a specialised work-
shop and have the towing bracket checked.
If you detect any fault in the electrical sys-
tem or in the towing bracket, contact a speci-
alised workshop and ask them to check it.
If the ball has a diameter of less than 49
mm at any one point, do not use the towing
bracket under any circumstances.
CAUTION
If you clean the vehicle with high-pressure or
steam devices, do not point the jet directly
towards the retractable tow hitch or the trail-
er power socket, as this may damage the
joints or remove the grease necessary for lu-
brication.
Note
At extremely low temperatures, the tow hitch
may be impossible to use. In this case, place
the vehicle in a warmer location (for example,
a garage).
Fitting a bicycle carrier on the retract-
able tow hitch
The maximum allowed weight of the carrier
system, including the load, is 75 kg. The car-
rier system should not protrude more than
700 mm backwards from the spherical head.
Only carrier systems on which up to 3 bikes
can be mounted are allowed. Heavier bicy-
cles must be mounted as close to the vehicle
as possible (tow hitch).
WARNING
The incorrect use of the tow hitch with a bicy-
cle rack mounted on the tow hitch can cause
accidents and injury.
Never exceed the maximum weight or the
limits indicated above.
The bicycle rack may not be mounted to the
neck of the hitch below the ball because, due
to the shape of the neck and depending on
the rack model, the rack could be incorrectly
mounted on the vehicle.
Always read and take the manufacturer as-
sembly instructions into account.
CAUTION
If the maximum weight and limits indicated
above are exceeded, the vehicle may suffer
considerable damage.
Never exceed the values indicated!
Note
SEAT recommends removing, as far as possi-
ble, all removable parts of the bicycles before
setting off. These parts include, for example,
baskets and saddlebags, child seats or bat-
teries. This improves aerodynamics and the
centre of gravity of the rack system.
