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.
In the event that you have various applications to make calls, such as inter-
net calling, the mobile will ask you from which application you wish to make
the call. Until confirmation is given you will not be able to make the call.
If you try to make a call and it is not processed, check your mobile phone as
it is possible that your a pop-up window on your telephone is requesting
you to select the program with which to make the call. Bluetooth system components

Operation
Correct use of the voice control
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● Avoid poor articulation of words.
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.
● Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).
● At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out back-
ground noises.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.
● The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend us-
ing the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers.
