Navigation Introduction to navigation
Introduction
General information
The current vehicle position is determined by means of the GPS system
(Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure distances driv-
en. The measurement values are adapted using the detailed information
from the navigation data medium maps and according to the stored traffic
management. Where applicable, the TMC traffic reports are included in the
route calculation ⇒ page 71. The navigation system uses these data to
determine an optimal route to the destination.
The destination is defined by entering an address or a point of interest, e.g.
a petrol station or hotel.
Navigation announcements and visual guidance on the navigation unit and
the instrument panel direct you to your destination ⇒ page 64.
Depending on the country, some radio-navigation system functions can no
longer be selected when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed. This
is not a malfunction, but simply a legal requirement.
Navigation data
At the close of this edition, SEAT has two different versions of radio and nav-
igation system “SEAT MEDIA SYSTEM 2.2”, one for Western Europe and one
for Eastern Europe, with and without DAB respectively ⇒ page 24.
In normal circumstances, all the necessary navigation data is already stored
in the navigator. The maps stored in the system (Western Europe or Eastern
Europe Version) depend on the country in which the vehicle is sold. SD cards with the different maps offered by SEAT or with the annual map up-
dates can be obtained through the SEAT Technical Service. Please ask your
SEAT dealership ⇒ page 48.

Note
Dirty or damaged navigation data media may lead to problems when copy-
ing navigation information or even in the navigation itself. Store unused da-
ta media in a suitable container or in the original box to protect them from
mechanical damage, heat, humidity or direct sunlight. 
Limitations of the navigation function
Possible errors in navigation
If the navigation system is not able to receive data from the GPS satellites
(dense vegetation, underground garage), it is still possible to navigate us-
ing the vehicle sensory analysis.
In areas that are not or only partially digitised on the data medium (e.g. in-
sufficient definition of one-way streets and road categories), the navigation
system will still attempt to provide route guidance. 

48Navigation
If navigation data are unavailable or incomplete, the navigation system may
be unable to determine the exact vehicle position. As a result, the naviga-
tion may not be as exact as usual.
Navigation area and age of navigation data
The accuracy of the data (small villages, streets and house numbers) de-
pends on the respective version for the country.
Roads and streets are subject to constant change (e.g. new roads, changes
to street names and house numbers). After some time, navigation data will
no longer be up-to-date. This may lead to inaccurate or incorrect route guid-
ance.
In the case of small villages, they may have to be searched for as Points of
Interest (POI) rather than by their name.
Map updates and different map versions (East/West Europe) are available
through SD cards. Please consult a Technical Service. 
Updating the internal navigation data memory
Fig. 43 Navigation setup
menu. The navigation data for the vehicle sales zone are stored in the internal
memory of the navigation system. This data can be used directly for naviga-
tion.
It is also possible to navigate using navigation data stored in one of the
available SD cards (please consult a Technical Service), without needing to
download the data from the SD card to the internal memory of the navigator
(this option is recommended if temporarily using a navigation database:
e.g. different geographical areas).
The navigation data in the internal memory of the system can be updated
using the SD cards available (please consult a Technical Service). Please
note that if you upload data from the SD card to the internal memory of the
navigator, the data previously stored in this memory will be deleted and
cannot be recovered
(option recommended for updating cartography).
Updating navigation data
A memory card containing updated navigation data can be obtained from
an Technical Service.
● Cancel the mechanical protection against overwriting in the memory
card.
● Inserting the memory card ⇒ page 29.
If the inserted memory card contains valid navigation data, a window opens
asking whether you wish to permanently allocate the memory card to the ra-
dio navigation system.
Due to licensing legislation, when the copy has been completed, the memo-
ry card will be allocated to this radio and navigation system and can not be
used for other radio and navigation units.
● Press the Assign
function button to continue.
Information about the navigation data installed and available on the memo-
ry card is displayed.
● Press the function button Install
to start copying the information.

Traffic incidents displayed on the map
Traffic congestion reported via TMC that is on the route is shown on the map
by a coloured symbol. Traffic congestion that is not on the route is shown on
the map by a grey symbol. The positioning of the TMC symbol indicates the
start and the direction of the traffic congestion if both are clearly defined in
the TMC traffic message.
Route sections with traffic congestion that are on the route are coloured red.
Route sections with traffic congestion that are not on the route are coloured
grey. If route guidance is not active, all traffic congestion is coloured grey.
Dynamic route guidance
If the  Dynamic route
function button is activated and a diversion to avoid
traffic congestion on the route is likely to save time, the navigation system
automatically calculates an alternative route.
An announcement is given when the route is recalculated. The same an-
nouncement is given if traffic congestion that was present when the route
was originally calculated is now no longer reported.
Note
A diversion of the route based on TMC traffic reports may not always save
time, if, for instance, there is also heavy traffic on the alternative route.
Note
If there is traffic congestion on a route section further ahead, it is possible
to exclude the section manually if the TMC traffic report has not yet been
received.
Note
The quality of traffic messages depends on the station broadcasting the
traffic reports. This station is responsible for the content of the traffic re-
ports. Displaying TMC traffic reports (TRAFFIC)

if the unit has access to navigation data for the area you are currently travel-
ling through.
Note
The quality of the dynamic route guidance depends on the information con-
tained in the TMC traffic reports. The radio stations are responsible for the
content of the news broadcast. 
Route guidance in demo mode
If demo mode is activated in the Navigation setup menu ⇒ page 74, an ad-
ditional pop-up window opens when you start route guidance.
● Pressing the Demo
function button starts a “virtual route guidance” to
the destination you have entered.
● If you press the Normal
function button, a “real route guidance” starts.
The sequence of events and the operations in virtual route guidance are
similar to those in real route guidance.
Virtual route guidance is repeated when you reach the fictitious destination
and always starts again from the starting point if it is interrupted.
If the starting point for demo mode has been defined manually in the Navi-
gation setup menu, virtual route guidance will start from this position.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by
GPS, any manually entered starting point will be overwritten with the current
vehicle location ⇒ page 74.
When real route guidance is started following virtual route guidance in
demo mode, the unit first has to reorient itself. This may take some time,
depending on the number of satellites the unit can currently receive. Mov-
ing the vehicle may speed up the reorientation process. 
