numbers may be selected using the multi-function steering wheel and calls
can be made using the multi-function steering wheel.
WARNING
•Please concentrate on driving. As the driver, you have the responsibility
for your safety and that of others. For this reason, you should only use the
functions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the vehicle in
all situations - otherwise, you may create an accident risk!•The speech system must not be used in cases of emergency, since the
voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed or delayed
telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers manually!Note
•If your mobile phone allows you to store several numbers (home, mobile,
office..) under the same name or entry, they will all be listed as independent
entries on the instrument panel screen, but under the same name.•Depending on the mobile phone model, these entries will appear under
the same name with one different letter or character at the end. For example:
Antonio W, Antonio H, Antonio M.
Using the hands-free system from the steering wheel
The hands-free system can be used from the steering wheel.As well as using the voice command system, it is possible to use the functions
of the hands-free system from the controls on the steering wheel and the
radio.
When connection is established between your mobile telephone and the
hands-free device, the phonebook in your telephone and/or your SIM card
(depending on the phone) is downloaded to the hands-free device.
The phonebook may take up to four minutes to fully download to the commu-
nication system the first time the system is used. The download process is
indicated on the dash panel display.
Depending on the version, when the connection is established between your
mobile telephone and the hands-free device, the phonebook in the tele-
phone is downloaded to the hands-free device as well as lost calls, received
calls and last calls. From this moment, the phone book of the telephone as
well as lost calls, received calls and last calls are available on the screen of
the vehicle instrument panel.

button located on the multi-function control.
If one of these buttons is pressed while using the voice command system, the
function is cancelled.
After pressing the “press to talk” button ⇒fig. 9 , wait a few seconds for
the sound signal, after which the vocal commands may be used. These commands may be used to manage the functions of the hands-free telephone
system as well as the phone book.

Take note of these tips and suggestions when using the
phone book.•It is important that names stored in the phone book have a noticeable
acoustic difference between them so the system can recognise the entries.•In the event that an telephone book entry is not recognised (e.g. if
someone else tries to call-up a name), the phone book entries can be read out
by giving the command PLAY PHONE BOOK.•The numbers zero to nine are recognised by the system. Say the numbers
clearly so that the system can recognise them easily.
Should the system say

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.

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.
