86Telephone speech control systemIntroduction
You can use speech commands to operate various functions 
of the telephone.Functions
When used in combination with the hands-free system, you can make calls 
without touching your mobile phone. The speech control system recognises 
commands and digits spoken by different people.
The speech control system allows you to do the following:•Create an acoustic phone book for the speech control system  ⇒page 86•Enter and dial a telephone number  ⇒page 91
Traffic reports are not announced during a running dialogue. The dialogue 
will be ended immediately when an incoming phone call is received. To 
answer the call, press the left thumbwheel on the multi-function steering 
wheel* or the talk button   on the mobile phone adapter.
Unclear speech commands
The system acknowledges your commands with an acoustic signal. If the 
system does not recognise a speech command, it will answer with  Pardon? 
and request you to repeat the command. After a third failed attempt the 
system will answer with  Cancel and the dialogue will be ended.
How to help the system understand you•Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if you are driving fast.•Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce background noise. Make 
sure that passengers are not talking when you say a command.
•Keep the air outlets of the air distribution system pointed away from the 
microphone, which is fitted in the vicinity of the front interior lights.•The system should only be operated by the driver, since the hands-free 
microphone is directed towards the driver.WARNING
•Please direct your full attention to the road at all times! As the driver, 
you bear the responsibility for road safety. Therefore, you should only use 
the functions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the vehicle 
in all situations.•The speech control system must not be used in cases of emergency, 
since the voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed 
or delayed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers 
manually.

when driving with the navigation system active.Be sure that you always have complete control of your vehicle in all traffic situ-
ations when using navigation system functions.
WARNING
•Today's driving conditions require the full attention of drivers. Please 
see  ⇒page 6, “Notes on road safety”.•Pay attention to traffic rules when driving. The route calculated by the 
navigation system is a recommendation of how best to reach a destination. 
If driving instructions run contrary to traffic laws, the traffic laws always 
take precedence. Pay attention to traffic lights, no-stopping signs, lane 
change restrictions, one-way streets, etc.Caution
The volume of the sound system should be set at a level that enables you to 
hear acoustic signals from outside, such as police and fire brigade sirens. 
Failure to do so may cause an accident.
IntroductionIntroductionThe SEAT navigation system can help you reach your destination without 
spending a lot of time studying maps.
During route guidance you receive information in the navigation system 
display  ⇒fig. 114  and instrument panel display  ⇒page 99, fig. 116  
regarding vehicle position, turn-off information (direction and distance to 
turn-off), remaining distance to destination and estimated arrival time. Addi-
tionally, you receive spoken navigation information ⇒ page 100.
There are two possibilities for route guidance:•Route without stopover (single destination mode)•Route with stopovers (route plan)
