Opening a CD player's housing may lead to injuries from invisible laser
radiation.
● Only have CD players repaired by a qualified workshop.
CAUTION
The memory card slot's locking mechanism can be damaged by incorrect in-
sertion of a memory card or by inserting a non-compatible memory card!
● When inserting a card, make sure it is correctly positioned ⇒ page 33.
● Applying force may destroy the memory card slot's locking mechanism.
● Only use suitable memory cards ⇒ page 29.
CAUTION
● When inserting and removing CDs, always hold them at right angles to
the front of the unit. Inserting or removing them at an angle to the drive may
lead to scratching ⇒ page 32.
● Inserting a second CD while a CD is already inserted or being ejected
may damage the CD player. Always wait until the CD has been ejected!

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.
It is possible to preset certain volume settings and adjustments
⇒ 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.

Telephone control (Phone)
The mobile phone can be connected to the radio and navigation system in
two ways:
● active connection
● passive connection
With the active connection, the search for the unit is started using the radio
and navigation system. With the passive connection, the search for the unit
is started using the mobile phone. Sometimes the search process is unable
to find the device it wishes to pair to the radio and navigation system. It
may be necessary to repeat the search several times.
The following settings in the mobile phone and in the radio and navigation
system are required for both types of connection:
● The Bluetooth ®
function must be on or visible in the mobile phone and
in the radio and navigation system.
● The mobile phone keypad must be unlocked.
● The mobile phone notification and keypad tones should be switched off.
It will be necessary to enter information using the telephone keypad during
the connection process. Therefore, the mobile phone should be to hand.
This is followed by the synchronisation process between the two devices.
The mobile phone book and the list of received, missed and last dialled
calls is automatically loaded into the navigation system.
Start active connection of the mobile phone
When making an active connection, any existing connections to other mo-
bile phones are ended.
● Press the PHONE
unit button.
● Press the SETUP unit button.
● Press the Bluetooth Settings function button.
● Press the Bluetooth Settings function button. The search process may last 15 to 20 seconds. On completion, the names of
any mobile phones found are displayed on the screen. Sometimes the
search process is unable to find the device it wishes to pair to the radio and
navigation system. It may be necessary to repeat the search several times.
●
Select the entry corresponding to the mobile phone to be connected
from the list of Bluetooth devices ⇒ fig. 79.
● Establish a connection by pressing the Connect
function button.
● Alternatively: establish the connection by pressing the right unit button.
● Alternatively: establish the connection by pressing the name of the
phone in the entry in the list.
Now establish a connection between the mobile phone and the radio and
navigation system. To confirm the connection between the two units, certain
information should be entered in the mobile phone.
● Confirm connection in the mobile phone.
● Enter PIN shown on the radio and navigation display via the mobile
phone and confirm.
When the PIN has been correctly entered, a message confirming the connec-
tion is displayed on the radio and navigation system screen. The address
book stored in the mobile phone and the call lists are automatically loaded.
The time taken to load the information will depend upon the quantity of da-
ta stored in the mobile phone. Once the data has been loaded, the tele-
phone control data will be available in the radio and navigation system. The
main menu, PHONE, is displayed on the screen.
