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. 

Playback of music stored in the mobile phone through the Bluetooth Audio
wireless communication interface is only possible with some factory-instal-
led radios. The mobile phone must be paired with the communication sys-
tem.
Media mode indications in ⇒ booklet Radio
In order to use a mobile phone as a media player, the mobile phone must
be compatible with the “Advanced Audio Distribution Profile” (A2DP) Blue-
tooth profile. The A2DP profile allows the wireless transmission of a high-
quality stereophonic sound signal. Consult your mobile phone manufactur-
er.
The media player can be used via voice control ⇒ page 9 1)
. The mobile
phone must be compatible with the “Audio Video Remote Control Profile”
(AVRCP) Bluetooth profile. In some mobile phones the media player will
have to be started in the mobile phone before you can use it via voice con-
trol.

Note
● If the mobile phone and the communication system are connected via
Bluetooth, when another user is connected, they will be disconnected and
the music currently playing on the mobile phone will stop. There can only be
one device connected to the communication system at a time.
● With some mobile phones the volume can be adjusted directly on the
phone. SEAT recommends setting the maximum volume on the mobile
phone and making necessary adjustments on the radio during playback.
● Always switch off the warning and service tones on a connected Blue-
tooth audio source, e.g. key tones on a mobile telephone, to prevent inter-
ference noise and malfunctions. 
