General operating information
Introduction
If system settings are modified, some aspects of the unit's operation may
differ from the descriptions given in this manual. For this reason, SEAT rec-
ommends that you reset the unit to its factory settings the first time you use
it ⇒ page 100.
Additional Information:
● Safety notes  ⇒ page 6
● Unit overview ⇒ page 8
● Multifunction steering wheel, to change track or station ⇒ Booklet Own-
er's Manual, chapter Vehicle overview
Note
Lightly pressing the buttons or briefly pressing the touchscreen is sufficient
to operate the unit.
Note
Never press a button down for longer than 10 minutes. Otherwise the sys-
tem will interpret this as a malfunction ( button jammed).
Note
Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected on
the screen when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.
Note
Using a mobile telephone in the vehicle may cause noise from the vehicle
speakers.
Note
In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the vol-
ume of the current audio source is automatically lowered when reverse gear
is engaged. If talking on the telephone through the radio and navigation
system, the volume of the conversation is also lowered automatically when
reverse gear is engaged.
Note
Restrictions on the use of devices using Bluetooth technology may be appli-
cable in some countries. Please ask your local authority for further informa-
tion. 
Switching on and off
With the ignition on, press the rotary/push knob 
⇒ fig. 2 1 briefly to
manually switch the unit on or off.
When the unit is switched on, the system starts, and the last selected audio
source is played at the last selected volume, provided this is not greater
than the “start-up volume”.
When the key is removed from the ignition, the radio and navigation unit
automatically switches off. By pressing the rotary/push knob 
⇒ fig. 2 1
,
the radio switches on and switches off automatically after approx. 30 mi-
nutes (switch-off delay), or manually if the rotary/push knob is pressed
again.
Anti-theft code
The anti-theft code is stored in the vehicle once it has been entered (con-
venience radio code). The anti-theft coding lock then only needs to be re-
leased manually if the unit is installed in another vehicle. In such a case, a
keypad field and a prompt to enter the code will appear when the unit is
switched on. In this case, you should contact a SEAT dealer. 

ped.

⇒ page 99.
WARNING
Your attention may be distracted from the traffic if you use the radio and
navigation system while driving, resulting in accident.
● You should always drive with due care and attention.
● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
● If the volume is too high, you could damage your hearing. Even if the
volume is too loud for a short period only.
CAUTION
If the volume is too high or the sound is distorted, the vehicle speakers may
be damaged.
Note
If the base volume has been turned up high to play an audio source
(e.g. due to very quiet audio output from an external audio source), lower
the volume again before switching audio source. 
Additional information and display options
The text displayed on the screen may vary depending on the settings and
may not match the illustrations shown here.
All displays appear only after the radio-navigation system has completed
start-up.
Depending on the vehicle, the changes to the air conditioning settings or
the texts relating to driver assistance systems fitted at the factory are dis-
played. These displays disappear automatically when they are no longer re-
quired. 
