Controls and equipmentCommunicationIntroductionThis system allows you to connect your mobile phone to the
vehicle and to use the hands-free mode.The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the
vehicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Note
•The voice command system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, German, English, French, Italian and Czech. Other languages (such
as Dutch or Portuguese) will have Spanish as the default language for voice
instructions, and the vehicle must be taken to an Authorised Service Centre
for the change to be made.•There are certain versions of mobile telephone software that contain
errors. 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.•Some mobile devices do not respond correctly to the orders of the keypad
in hands-free mode. Always use the vehicle controls to interact with the
mobile phone.

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
regarding the use of mobile telephones and radio transmitters.
