Bluetooth
®
Bluetooth technology enables wireless connections between 
mobile and fixed devices without needing cables.Mobile communication and information is gaining ever greater importance 
for personal use as well as in today's modern business world.
Information transfer between mobile devices up until recently was only 
possible through wired and infrared connections.
These non-standardised connections greatly limited the range of use and 
were very complicated to operate.
For this reason, the introduction of the Bluetooth® technology represents a 
great change, allowing the establishment of a standardised remote connec-
tion between mobile devices from different manufacturers.
WARNING
The Bluetooth function must be switched off during air travel (please refer 
to the phone manual).
Note
Certain software version of some mobile telephones contain errors or limited 
functions (for example “Download phone book”). These errors may give rise 
to faulty operation of the vehicle hands-free system. In this case, consult the 
Authorised Service Centre for your mobile telephone.Bluetooth
®
Before using the functionality of the Bluetooth connection 
between the mobile telephone and the hands-free system for 
the first time configuration of the connection is required.It will be necessary that the hands-free system and the mobile telephone 
recognise each other. To proceed, first the Bluetooth function on the mobile 
telephone must be activated. Then, after switching on the ignition, select the 
option on your mobile telephone to search for other Bluetooth communica-
tion devices within range, which will include the hands-free system of the 
vehicle (SEAT_BT). The next step is to select this hands-free system. The 
complete instructions for completing this operation should be found in the 
instruction manual for the telephone.
The final step for establishing the connection is  to enter the PIN code for the 
hands-free device (initially 1234) . Where the PIN code for the SEAT_BT 
system is to be changed, contact any official SEAT dealer. Once the PIN code 
is input then the connection is established and the system can be used with 
the Bluetooth system. The moment that the connection is established, the 
hands-free kit will emit an acute sound.
Once this initial configuration procedure is complete,  whenever your mobile 
phone and the hands-free device are within range of establishing a Blue-
tooth connection , this is established as long as the ignition is switched on , 
without the need for further configuration.

Communication
32The connection between the telephone and the hands-free system will not 
be established if this system is already communicating with another phone.
If there are two or more Bluetooth telephones within communication range of 
the hands-free system then the system will connect with the one that was 
most recently connected.
WARNING
•When your mobile phone establishes a connection with the hands-free 
system, it emits both a visual and audible signal.•It should be noted that when driving at night with the radio off, the 
visual signal involves the screen lighting up for approximately 3 seconds.Note
It is important to personalise the device PIN code using a personal 4 digit 
code. Consult an official SEAT workshop.Radiophones and business equipmentRadiophones and fixed insta llation business equipmentRadiophones
Any retrofit installations of radiophones in the vehicle require prior approval. 
SEAT generally authorises in-vehicle installations of approved types of radio-
phones provided that:•the aerial is installed correctly,•the aerial is installed on the exterior of the vehicle (and shielded cables 
are used together with non-reflective aerial trimming),
•the effective transmitting power does not exceed 10 Watts at the aerial 
base.
Your Authorised Service Centre will be able to inform you about options for 
installing and operating radiophones with a higher transmitting power.
Business equipment
The retrofit of domestic and business equipment is permitted provided that 
these do not have an effect on the concentration of the driver and that they 
are  CE approved. Equipment retrofitted to the vehicle that may have an effect 
on the concentration of the driver must come with a specific licence for this 
type of vehicle and with the CE symbolNote
•The posterior fitting of electric and electronic equipment in this vehicle 
affects its licence type and could lead to the withdrawal of the vehicle regis-
tration document under certain circumstances.•We would request that you pay special attention to the instructions
