About this manual
This instruction manual is valid for all variants
and versions of your CUPRA model. It de-
scribes all the equipment and models with-
out specifying whether they are optional
equipment or model variants. As a result,
equipment not fitted to your vehicle or only
available in certain countries may be descri-
bed. Find out about your vehicle's equip-
ment in the documentation supplied with it
and please contact your CUPRA Specialised
Service or SEAT Official SEAT Service if you
require more detailed information.
All information provided in instruction man-
ual corresponds to the information available

under continuous development, it may have
differences to the data included in this man-
ual. For this reason, no claims can be made
in the event of mismatching data, illustra-
tions and descriptions.
Ensure that the on-board documentation is
kept in the vehicle at all times if you sell it or
lend it to third parties. In addition, CUPRA
recommends resetting the infotainment sys-
tem to factory settings to delete all personal
data.
Some details on the drawings may vary from
its vehicle and must be interpreted as a
standard representation.
The direction indicators (left, right, for-
wards, backwards) in this manual refer to the
travel direction of the vehicle unless other-
wise stated.

left-hand drive vehicles. In right-hand drive
vehicles, the arrangement of the controls
differs partly from that shown in the illustra-
tions or described in the texts.
Technical modifications to the vehicle or
safety-critical issues that have arisen since
the time of going to press will be included in
a supplement to the on-board documenta-
tion.

Driver information
Instrument panel
Introduction
After switching the drive system on with a 12-
volt battery that is heavily discharged or
newly changed some system settings (such
as the time, the date, the personalised com-
fort settings and the programming) might be
altered or deleted. Check and correct these
settings once the battery is sufficiently
charged.
WARNING
Any distraction may lead to an accident,
with the risk of injury.
●Do not operate the instrument panel
controls when driving.
●To reduce the risk of accident and injury,
only make adjustments to the instructions
on the screen of the instrument panel and
to the instructions on the screen of the In-
fotainment system when the vehicle is sta-
tionary.

Fig. 2 Digital Cockpit on the dash panel.
The Digital Cockpit is a digital instrument
cluster with a high-resolution colour liquid
crystal display. In addition to the speedome-
ter, by selecting different information pro-
files you can display information from the
driver assistance systems, among other
things. From here on the Digital Cockpit will
be referred to as the “digital instrument clus-
ter”.
Views in the display area
The digital instrument cluster can display the
following views
›››Fig. 2 :
Summary: Before switching on the drive
system: view with information on mile-
age (km), battery state of charge and
range.
–
Basic: Driving indications with infor-
mation on driver assistance systems,
speed and navigation.
Driver assistance systems: Display
of active driver assistance systems and
speed. The navigation context is hid-
den.
Navigation: Representation with in-
formation about the guided route and
speed. The graphic view of the driver
assistance systems is hidden.
Items such as pop-up windows are displayed
in the upper display area, depending on the
situation.
The amount and content of the information
displayed may vary depending on the equip-
ment.
Adjusting the views
The different views give you a better over-
view of driving and navigation data or infor-
mation on driver assistance systems.

Incidents on the digital instrument cluster
Information and warnings are displayed on
the digital instrument cluster as incidents. In-
cidents are displayed on the instrument clus-
ter from the top and are hidden again after a
short time.
WARNING
Any distraction affecting the driver in any
way can lead to an accident and cause inju-
ries.
●Operating the digital instrument cluster
can distract your attention from the traffic.
●Always drive as carefully and responsibly
as possible.
Battery state of charge and range
on the digital instrument cluster
Fig. 3 On the digital instrument cluster:
range and reserve indication.
Battery state of charge indication
The current state of charge of the high-volt-
age battery is indicated by the symbol on
the digital instrument cluster
›››Fig. 3 1.
The battery symbol will be more or less full
depending on the state of charge of the bat-
tery.
Range indication
The vehicle range is displayed in kilometres
(km) or miles (mi) depending on the selected
setting
›››Fig. 3 2
The displayed value is calculated and upda-
ted based on the driving style and ambient
conditions. Hence, the autonomy may vary
even with the high-voltage battery fully
charged.
Reserve area
Battery state of charge and range
Reserve indication (warning level 1) and
range
Reserve indication (warning level 2) and
range
When the red zone of the high voltage bat-
tery reserve is reached, the symbol is dis-
played together with a percentage value in
colour
›››Fig. 3 3.
Reserve area warning levels:
The battery state of charge is less
than 20%.
The battery state of charge is less than
10%. In addition, the battery state of
charge in % is displayed.
Charge the high-voltage battery as soon as
possible to prevent the vehicle from stopping
››› .
WARNING
If the vehicle is driven with a very low a
charge level of the high-voltage battery,
the vehicle may stall in traffic, causing seri-
ous damage or accidents and injuries.
●Always ensure that the charge level of the
high-voltage battery is sufficient!

Driver information
WARNING
When the high-voltage battery charge level
reaches the reserve level, it is possible that
certain driving properties may vary, i.e. the
acceleration behaviour of the vehicle.
●Always adapt the speed and driving style
to the conditions of visibility, weather, road
and traffic, as well as the charge level of the
high-voltage battery.
CAUTION
The self-discharge of the high-voltage bat-
tery, for example due to the vehicle being
parked for several months, can cause dam-
age to the battery in the event of high am-
bient temperature and the battery having a
low charge level.
●Always ensure that the charge level of the
high-voltage battery is sufficient!
Note
If the outside temperature is very low and,
therefore, the high-voltage battery is very
cold, the autonomy may be reduced.
Power display
Fig. 4 On the digital instrument cluster:
power indicator (schematic representa-
tion).
The power display shows the current electric
motor power availability and the current
drive power.
Display system
On the bar that is split in half, the power indi-
cator always shows the availability of brake
energy recuperation
›››Fig. 4 1(green) on
the left hand side and power availability
›››Fig. 4 2(blue) on the right hand side.
When the corresponding section of the bar
reaches the end mark, availability is unlimi-
ted. If there is a limitation, the bar is short-
ened accordingly.
The current drive power is displayed dynami-
cally on a bar with a lighter colour, either as
recuperation power (light green) on the left,
or as drive power (light blue) on the right.
When the current drive power and current
power availability are the same (the bars are
the same length), the power limit of the
electric motor has been reached.
Relevant factors
Aside from the speed of the vehicle, the fol-
lowing factors are also relevant:
●The availability of drive and recuperation
depends on the state of charge of the high
voltage battery. If its state of charge is high,
recuperation may be limited; if it is low, drive
may be limited.
●If the temperature of the high voltage bat-
tery is very low or very high, the available
drive power may be reduced in general. This
affects drive and recuperation.
WARNING
Driving properties may vary when the elec-
tric motor's available power is low or the
state of charge of the high-voltage battery
reaches its reserve level, e.g. the vehicle's
acceleration behaviour.
●Always adapt the speed and driving style
to the conditions of visibility, weather, road
and traffic, as well as the charge level of the
high-voltage battery.
Note
The power limit cannot be reached at any
speed.
