Information stored by the
control units

Storage of accident data (Event
Data Recorder)

Your vehicle has an event data recorder
(EDR).

The EDR’s function is to record data in the
event of a mild or serious accident. These da-
ta are used to support the analysis of how dif-
ferent vehicle systems behaved.

The EDR records, over a reduced time range
(normally 10 seconds or less), dynamic driv-
ing data and data from the restraint systems,
such as:

●

How different vehicle systems worked.

●

Whether the driver and the occupants were

wearing their seat belts.

●

How hard the acceleration or brake pedal

was pressed.

●

Vehicle speed.

These data will provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances of the accident.

Data from the driving assist systems are also
recorded. This includes data such as whether
the systems were inactive or active and if
such action had an impact on the vehicle’s
dynamic behaviour, changing its path in the
aforementioned situations, accelerating or
decelerating the vehicle.

Depending on vehicle equipment, this in-
cludes data from systems such as:

●

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)

●

Emergency brake assistance system (Front

Assist).

●

Park Pilot system

The EDR data are only recorded in specific
accident situations. No data are recorded in
normal driving conditions.

No audio or video data inside or around the
vehicle are recorded. Under no circumstan-
ces are personal data such as name, age, or
gender recorded. Nevertheless, third parties
(such as criminal proceedings authorities)
may relate the contents of the EDR data to
other data sources and create a personal
reference in the context of an accident inves-
tigation.

In order to read the EDR data it is necessary
to access (if legally permitted to do so) the
vehicle's ODB (“On-Board-Diagnose”) inter-
face while the vehicle is switched on.

SEAT will not have access to EDR data unless
the owner (or, in “Leasing” cases, the lessee
or hirer) gives their consent. There may be ex-
ceptions to this, depending on legal or con-
tractual provisions.

Due to legal requirements in safety-related
products, SEAT may use the EDR data for
field research and in order to improve vehicle
system quality. Any data used for the purpo-
ses of research will be treated anonymously
(in other words, no reference will be made to
the vehicle, their owner or the lessee/hirer).

Description and operation

Your vehicle is fitted at the factory with a ser-
ies of electronic control units responsible for
the engine and gearbox management. In ad-
dition, the control units supervise the per-
formance of the exhaust gas system and the
airbag systems.

Therefore, while the vehicle is being driven,
these electronic control units are continuous-
ly analysing the vehicle data. In the event of
faults or deviations from the theoretical val-
ues, only this data is stored. Normally, the
warning lamps on the instrument panel light
up in the event of faults.

This data can only be read and analysed us-
ing special equipment.

348

Information for the user

The storing of the data allows specialised
workshops to detect and repair faults. Stored
data may include:

●

Data relating to the engine or the gearbox

●

Speed

●

Direction of travel

●

Braking force

●

Detection of seat belt

The vehicle control units never record conver-
sations held by passengers in the vehicle.

In vehicles equipped with an emergency call
function via the mobile phone or other appli-
ances connected in the vehicle, it is possible
to send the vehicle position. If the control unit
records an accident with airbag activation,
the system may automatically send a signal.
This will depend on the network operator.
Normally, transmission is only possible in
areas with good coverage.

Event Data Recorder

The vehicle is 

not

 fitted with an event data re-

corder.

An event data recorder temporarily stores the
vehicle information. Therefore, in the event of
an accident, it is possible to obtain detailed
information about how the accident occur-
red. For example, in vehicles with airbag sys-
tems, data relating to speed of impact, seat
belt status, seat positions and airbag activa-

tion times may be stored. The volume of data
depends on the manufacturer.

Event data recorders can only be mounted
with authorisation from the vehicle owner
and, in some countries, they are governed by
local legislation.

Reprogramming of control units

On the whole, all the data required for the
component management is stored in the
control units. The programming of certain
convenience functions, such as the turn sig-
nals, individual door opening and instructions
on the display can be modified using special
equipment at the workshop. If this is the case,
the information and descriptions given in the
Instruction Manual will not match the original
functions. Therefore, SEAT recommends that
any modifications be recorded in the section
“Other workshop notes” in the Maintenance
Programme.

The technical service centre must have a re-
cord of any modification to the programming.

Reading the vehicle's fault memory

There is a diagnostics connector in the vehi-
cle interior for reading the vehicle fault mem-
ory. The fault memory documents errors and
deviations from the theoretical values of the
electronic control units.

The diagnostics connector is in the driver side
footwell area, next to the lever for opening
the bonnet, below a cover.

The fault memory should only be read and
reset by a specialised workshop.

Other important information

Environmental compatibility

Environmental protection is a top priority in
the design, choice of materials and manufac-
ture of your new SEAT.

Constructive measures to encourage re-
cycling

●

Joints and connections designed for easy

dismantling.

●

Modular construction to facilitate disman-

tling.

●

Increased use of single-grade materials.

●

accordance with ISO 1043, ISO 11469 and
ISO 1629.

Choice of materials

●

Use of recycled materials.

●

Use of compatible plastics in the same part

if its components are not easily separated.

»

349

Information for the user

●

Use of recycled materials and/or materials

originating from renewable sources.

●

etc.).

●

The use of water-soluble paints.

Stickers and plates

Some parts in the engine compartment come
from the factory with certificates of safety, la-
bels or plates containing important informa-
tion regarding the operation of the vehicle, for
example, on the fuel tank flap, on the pas-
senger's sun visor, on the driver door strut, or
on the floor of the boot.

●

Never remove these certificates of safety,

labels or plates, and ensure they are kept in
good condition and are legible.

●

If a vehicle part, bearing a certificate of

safety, label or plate, is replaced, the special-
ised workshop should attach the information
back in the same place.

Certificate of safety

A certificate of safety on the door strut states
that all the safety standards and regulations
established by the national traffic authorities
responsible for road safety were met at the
time of manufacture. It may also give the
month and year of manufacture, together
with the vehicle ID number.

Warning of high voltage label

There is a label close to the bonnet lock
which warns of high voltage in the vehicle's
electrical system. The vehicle ignition system
complies with several standards, including
the Canadian standard, ICES-002.

Using the vehicle in other countries
and continents

The vehicle is manufactured at the factory for
use in a particular country in accordance
with the national legislation in force at the
time of manufacture.

If the vehicle is sold in another country or
used in another country for an extended peri-
od of time, the applicable legislation of that
country should be observed.

It may be necessary to fit or remove certain
pieces of equipment or to deactivate certain
functions. Service work may also be affected.
This is particularly true if the vehicle is used in
a different climate for an extended period of
time.

As there are different types of frequency
bands around the world, you may find that
the radio or navigation system supplied at the
factory does not work in another country.

CAUTION

●

SEAT does not accept liability for any

damage to the vehicle due to the use of a
lower quality fuel, an inadequate service or
the non-availability of genuine spare parts.

●

SEAT does not accept liability if the vehi-

cle does not comply in part or in full with
the legal requirements of other countries or
continents.
