4Introduction to the Bluetooth system
Introduction to the Bluetooth system
General information
This system allows you to connect your mobile phone via
Bluetooth connection and to use the hands-free mode. The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Available functions include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the
mobile phone address book, access to the call list and control of the voice
recognition system.
The Bluetooth system is activated when the ignition is turned on and it is
deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition.
Before using the communication system, the mobile phone has to be con-
nected to the vehicle's Bluetooth system ⇒ page 6.
WARNING
● Please concentrate on driving. As the driver, you have the responsibil-
ity for your safety and that of others. For this reason, you should only use
the functions when the traffic situation allows so and in a manner that
allows you to maintain control of the vehicle. Otherwise, you run the risk
of causing an accident.
● 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 de-
layed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers manually!
● Always observe applicable legislation.
● Adjust the volume so that external warning sounds (e.g. emergency
vehicles) are always audible.
Note
● The voice control system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, Mexican Spanish, German, English, French, Canadian French, Ital-
ian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and Dutch. To change the language you
must go to a Technical Service.

Creation of user profile
Each telephone must be paired to the Bluetooth system be-
fore using it for the first time. When pairing a mobile phone for the first time, you will be asked to create a
user profile. A user profile is necessary for you to connect the mobile phone
to the SEAT system. Once the user profile has been created, your telephone
can be connected automatically or manually . It is not necessary to repeat
the initial connection process each time.
A maximum of four user profiles can be created. If you try to create a fifth
profile, the profile which has been inactive for the most time will automati-
cally be deleted.
The pairing process can take several minutes depending on the size of the
phone book.
The procedure for pairing your mobile phone to the SEAT system for the first
time is described below.
Pairing with the mobile phone
Follow the steps below to connect the mobile phone to the vehi-
cle's Bluetooth by searching for devices from the mobile phone:
– Activate the Bluetooth function on the mobile phone. Refer to
the mobile phone manual for instructions. –
Turn on the ignition with the key. The vehicle system will be visi-
ble to the mobile phone via Bluetooth for 3 minutes.
– Search for Bluetooth devices using the mobile phone. Refer to
the mobile phone manual for instructions.
– Select the device SEAT_BT from the list of search results on the
mobile phone.
– Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
– When asked to do so, enter the PIN number 1234 and confirm.
(PIN 1234, factory-set, can be modified).
– The contacts from the mobile phone's memory and/or SIM
card 1)
are transferred to the vehicle system.
– The pairing is complete.
Note
The visibility of the Bluetooth system in the vehicle is activated for 3 mi-
nutes when the ignition is turned on with the key. After 3 minutes, if you
need to activate the visibility again, you can do so with the voice control
⇒ page 9 or turning the ignition off and on again.
Note
If for any reason you take more than 3 minutes to perform these steps or
more than 30 seconds to enter the PIN, you will have to start the process
over again.

Automatic pairing
When the telephone has been paired and the corresponding user profile
created, your telephone will automatically pair with the SEAT telephone sys-
tem under the following conditions:
● The mobile phone is switched on with the Bluetooth function activated
and the visibility activated. The mobile phone must be close to the vehicle.
● The vehicle's system has the Bluetooth visibility activated (it will remain
active during 3 minutes after turning on the ignition).
● As long as the automatic connection has been accepted in the ques-
tions during the first pairing.
