22TipsHere are some tips and points to reme mber when playing music files in the
car:•We recommend that, instead of storing music files in the main directory of
the memory stick or MP3 player, you create separate folders e.g. for tracks
belonging to the same genre or artist. Therefore, bear in mind that your sound
system can display and play a maximum of six folders. The folders are allo-
cated first in numerical order and then in alphabetical order as CD 1 to CD 6.
Folders that do not contain music files are automatically ignored. You can
create any number of subfolders.•If there are no folders on your memory device, the sound system will allo-
cate all the music files it finds to CD 1.•Track numbers appear with a maximum of two digits in the sound system
display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a track with a three-digit
number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both displayed as track “25”. We
therefore do not recommend allocating more than 99 tracks to each folder.•Bear in mind that special characters (diaeresis, accents, etc) are at the
end of the alphabet.
The following music formats are supported:•mp3 (MPEG1 Layer3 from 32 to 320 kbps)•wma (from 8 to 192 kbps)•wav (11.025, 22.050 and 44.1 kHz sampling frequency with 16-bit
encoding, stereo)•ogg vorbis (up to q10, 48 kHz, stereo)
DRM music formats are not supported.Caution
Never store important data on the memory stick or MP3 player. SEAT is not
liable in any manner for any data or files that may be damaged or lost.
Aux-in connectionIntroduction
Portable players can be plugged into the Aux-in connection
using a 3.5 mm jack plug.The Aux-in socket is located in the centre console. It is compatible with port-
able players with a 3.5 mm jack plug. It cannot be guaranteed that all port-
able players will function without any problems.
Caution
•Very high or very low temperatures (a common occurrence in a car's inte-
rior) can cause damage to portable players and/or impair their performance.
Never leave the portable player in the vehicle in case of extreme temperatures
(either very high or very low)•Never store important data on portable players. SEAT is not liable in any
manner for any data or files that may be damaged or lost.Note
Please refer to the operating instructions of your portable player for important
information on its operation.Connecting a portable player– Switch on your vehicle's sound system.

WARNING
Today's driving conditions require your full attention. As the driver, you
bear the responsibility for road safety. Never operate a portable player
while driving, as this could result in an accident.
Note
•We recommend setting the output level of the portable player to about
70 percent of maximum. Before adjusting the volume using the sound system
in your vehicle, you should first use the volume adjuster of the portable
player.•Using a portable player with the engine switched off will drain the
battery.

Phone book
The phone book entries on your SIM card and your mobile
phone directory are automatically stored in the mobile phone
interface.Loading the phone book entries
Provided your mobile phone supports this function, the phone book entries
will be automatically scanned into the memory of the mobile phone adapter
after you have switched on the ignition and inserted the mobile phone in the
adapter. It may take several minutes to load the entries, depending on how
many entries are stored on the mobile phone. The message Please wait... will
appear on the instrument panel display during this process.
The last four phone books loaded into the mobile phone adapter remain
stored there. When you link a fifth mobile phone to the mobile phone
adapter, the phone book from the mobile phone which has not been used for
the longest time is deleted from the mobile phone adapter. Up to 500 phone
book entries per phone book can be stored in the memory.
Using the mobile phone again later
If the SIM card is identical, the phone book entries are already stored in the
mobile phone adapter. You can use the phone book almost immediately.
The system automatically searches for changes or new entries and stores
them automatically. This process can take several minutes. If your vehicle is
equipped with the speech control system* ⇒page 31, you cannot record any
spoken names in the phone book for the speech control system while phone
book entries are being loaded from the mobile phone.
Speech dialogue systemIntroduction
You can use speech commands to operate various functions
of the telephone.Functions
When used in combination with the hands-free system, you can make calls
without touching your mobile phone. The speech control system recognises
commands and digits spoken by different people.
The speech control system allows you to do the following:•Create an acoustic phone book for the speech control system ⇒page 32•Enter and dial a telephone number ⇒page 35
Traffic reports are not announced during a running dialogue. The dialogue
will be ended immediately when an incoming phone call is received. To
answer the call, press the left thumbwheel on the multi-function steering
wheel* or the talk button on the mobile phone adapter.
Unclear speech commands
The system acknowledges your commands with an acoustic signal. If the
system does not recognise a speech command, it will answer with Pardon?
and request you to repeat the command. After a third failed attempt the
system will answer with Cancel and the dialogue will be ended.
How to help the system understand you•Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if you are driving fast.•Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce background noise. Make
sure that passengers are not talking when you say a command.
