Introduction 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, as
well as connecting a multimedia player. 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
phone book, access to the call list, music playback via streaming audio 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 Bluetooth system, the mobile phone has to be paired with
the vehicle installation via Bluetooth ⇒ page 5.
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!
WARNING (Continued)
● 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. For other languages, the prede-
fined language for the voice control instructions is English. Please take the
vehicle to a Technical Service if you wish to change the language.
4Introduction to the Bluetooth system
Compatibility with mobile phones
New models of mobile phones are being released constantly by the differ-
ent brands, with different operating systems and different ways of operat-
ing. For this reason there are some mobile phones that do not perform
some of the functions correctly or are even totally incompatible. At SEAT we
would like to help you choose a mobile phone, so we have published the
results of compatibility tests performed for different mobile phones. Visit
the SEAT website or ask at your dealer.
Depending on your mobile phone model, certain functions may not be avail-
able or it may be necessary to change the configuration. Familiarise yourself
with your phone and read the instruction manual to learn the possibilities it
offers.
Even when the mobile phone appears as compatible in our list, we have no-
ticed that occasionally it is possible that the phone presents an abnormal
behaviour with the system due to software errors. In this case we recom-
mend updating your mobile phone's software. Mobile phone manufacturers
usually have updates available on their websites, which can improve the
operation of your phone. Bluetooth system components

Getting started: pairing
Getting started: pairing Creation of user profile
Each telephone must be paired with the Bluetooth system
before 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 ⇒ page 6, Automatic pair-
ing, without having to repeat the initial pairing process each time. The
phone will be connected automatically as long as the corresponding user
profile has not been deleted using the telephone menu or the Factory set-
tings function.
A maximum of four user profiles can be created. If you try to create a fifth
profile the system will ask you to erase a profile of your choice.
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. The procedure can be started from the vehicle sys-
tem using the Telephone menu on the instrument panel or from the mobile
phone. Both methods are described below ⇒ page 5 and ⇒ page 6.Pairing the mobile phone with the system in
the instrument panel menu
In order to pair the mobile phone with the vehicle's Bluetooth by
searching for devices from the
Telephone menu in the instrument
panel, follow the steps below:
In the mobile phone
– Activate the Bluetooth function on your mobile phone.
– Activate the Bluetooth visibility on your mobile phone.
In the vehicle
– Turn on the ignition with the key.
– Select the Telephone menu on the instrument panel display
– Select the function Search for Telephones to search for Bluetooth
devices within the range of the system. At the end of the search,
a list of the devices found is displayed.
Pairing the mobile phone
– Select the desired telephone from the list on the instrument
panel display.
– Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
– When asked to do so, enter the PIN shown on the instrument
panel display in the mobile phone and confirm.
6Getting started: pairing
–Confirm the connection instructions in the mobile phone.
– Confirm on the instrument panel the message saying that a new
profile has been created.
– The contacts in your mobile phone address book are copied to
the vehicle system.
– The pairing is complete.
Pairing with the mobile phone
Follow the instructions below to pair the mobile phone with the
Bluetooth system:
– Activate the Bluetooth visibility 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.–
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
want to reactivate the visibility you can do so by using the menus on the in-
strument panel ⇒ page 14 or via voice control ⇒ page 9.
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.

Because of the different pronunciations of each language, some of the names may not be
read as you expected. Because of this you can record up to 15 contacts with your own
voice.
b) It is recommended to restore the factory defaults if you are going to sell the vehicle, so that
your personal details, such as PIN, contacts, calls, etc. are deleted, and the settings are
restored.
DIAL NUMBER command
After saying the DIAL NUMBER command the system asks you to enter a tel-
ephone number. The telephone number can be entered as a sequence of
digits pronounced coherently (complete number), in series of digits (sepa-
rated by a brief pause) or in digits pronounced separately. After each series
of digits (separated by a brief pause) the digits recognised until then are re-
peated.
Digits 0 - 9 and symbols +,
, # are allowed. The system does not recog-
nise coherent numeric combinations such as twenty-three, only individual
digits (two, three).
