Remember
6RememberConvenience anti-theft codeThe sound equipment automatically identifies “its” vehicle.
If the electricity supply is interrupted, when the ignition is switched on again,
the sound equipment automatically checks whether it can still identify “its”
vehicle. Once the vehicle has been identified, the sound equipment is again
ready for use after a few seconds.
With the convenience code it is no longer necessary to manually unblock the
sound equipment.
However if the sound equipment is in another vehicle, it must be unblocked
by entering the code. To obtain the code, contact an authorised SEAT
dealer.Display on instrument panel Information referring to the radio is al so displayed on the instrument panel.
The function is activated by pressing and holding the lower button of the
rocker switch located at the end of the windscreen wiper lever and selecting
the function “Audio” in the menu.
Important information concerning the handling of your radio equipmentUse when driving
Travelling on today's roads requires th e driver's full attention at all times.
Modern radios offer many sophisticated features providing a variety of forms
of entertainment and a range of inform ation on traffic and road conditions
etc.
However, the radio, with all its possibilities, should only be used if condi-
tions really allow it.
For example, changing CDs or reading CD labels while driving has frequently
led to dangerous situations.
The radio volume should be set so that acoustic signals from outside can also
be heard at all times.
WARNING
Please keep your attention on driving as a priority!Soft-Clipping FunctionThe radio has an automatic volume reduction system to avoid distortion and
possible damage to the radio and speakers.
