Just saw this on the Cupra Born Facebook group:

CUPRA are planning an over the air update which will be commencing deployment to vehicles shortly. Please see the statement issued by CUPRA below. This looks like a proactive update so this is good to see.

CUPRA OTA UPDATE STATEMENT:
An over-the-air update is being released in waves to CUPRA Born vehicles (between now and the end of the year), and is expected to take around 10 minutes.
This update includes functionality to detect if any battery cells are discharging by themselves. This does not mean that your battery has this issue, it is designed as a preventative measure.
The wording you will see on your infotainment system is below:
"This update includes a function capable of detecting if any battery cell is discharging by itself. This is a preventative measure that does not imply a current problem in your battery. If this problem is detected during the vehicle's lifecycle, a yellow warning sign would appear on the digital cockpit indicating an error in the electrical driving system.
The vehicle will continue working, but you should go to a workshop as soon as possible to avoid any battery wear. If this update is not installed, the battery operation and the warranty coverage could be affected.
Remember that this installation is a pre-requisite for receiving future Over-The-Air Updates.
If your car is equipped with anti-theft alarm, it will be deactivated during installation.
Once the installation is complete, it will work normally again. This update does not increase the software version."
