32you were playing. If you do not alter the contents of your memory device, the
music will be continued at the point where you stopped playing.
MP3 players and USB sticks which are not explicitly approved must have
“CERTIFIED USB
TM” or “CERTIFIED HIGH SPEED USB
TM” status.
Caution
•Do not connect a device other than a memory stick or MP3 player to the
USB port. It is not possible to operate hard discs or USB hubs, etc. via the USB
port.•Do not connect the MP3 player directly to the USB port. This could
damage the device.•Never remove a memory device when the USB port is selected as source
(CD). This could damage your memory device.Note
For up-to-date information on compatible MP3 players and USB sticks, please
ask a SEAT dealer or visit www.seat.es.Functions
Music files are played just like on a CD changer using the
controls on your car's sound system.To start the memory stick or MP3 player, select the “CD changer” function on
the sound system.
The following functions are available:•Play all tracks stored on the memory device (if no folders are stored on the
memory device)
•Select and play up to six main folders with music files (just like selecting
CD 1 to 6 on a CD changer)•Change between main folders with music files (just like changing the CD
on a CD changer)•Change tracks within a main folder•Fast forward and rewind within a track•SCAN function•Play tracks in random or shuffle mode
For more information on how to operate the system, please refer to the “CD”
chapter in the operating manual for your sound system.TipsHere are some tips and points to remember when playing music files in the
car:•We recommend that, instead of storing music files in the main directory of
the memory stick or MP3 player, you create separate folders e.g. for tracks
belonging to the same genre or artist. Your sound system can display and
play a maximum of six folders, however. The folders are allocated first in
numerical order and then in alphabetical order as CD 1 to CD 6. Folders that
do not contain music files are automatically ignored. You can create any
number of subfolders.•If there are no folders on your memory device, the sound system will allo-
cate all the music files it finds to CD 1.•Track numbers appear with a maximum of two digits in the sound system
display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a track with a three-digit
number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both displayed as track “25”. We
therefore do not recommend allocating more than 99 tracks to each folder.•We recommend you not to use the “Name CD” function on vehicles with
the BNS 5.0 navigation system, as the folders may not be named correctly.

altered using the control buttons ⇒page 153.
Note
We recommend that you enter these settings when the vehicle is stationary.
Please note ⇒ page 6, “Notes on road safety”.Traffic programme
Use the traffic programme option to switch the function on
and off as desired.
– Starting from any one of the radio menus, press the
⇒page 9 button.
– Select the Traffic programme (on ⇒ fig. 45) function to switch
this function on.If the traffic programme function is switched on ( on), the traffic announce-
ments will also cut in when you are listening to a CD or using the navigation
system*. In addition, if the TP memo timer function ⇒page 148 is activated,
traffic reports are automatically recorded up to 2 hours after the navigation
system has been switched off. These recorded reports can be called up via the
TP memo function ⇒page 146.
Radio stations on MW and LW frequency bands ⇒page 36 do not transmit
traffic news.
If you have selected a station that does not broadcast a traffic programme,
the system will tune into another traffic programme station in the back-
ground. When a traffic report is then broadcast, the system will automatically
switch to that station for the duration of the announcement and the volume
will be adjusted to the value preset for traffic reports ⇒page 61.
The traffic news station is selected on the basis of the following criteria:

information.
Alternative frequencies– Starting from any one of the radio menus, press the ⇒page 9 button.
– Switch on the Alt. frequency function (on) ⇒ page 41, fig. 44 to
automatically change frequency within the same station.Because of the limited range of FM (VHF) signals, a radio station may broad-
cast from several transmitters on different frequencies. If the Alt. frequency
function is switched on (on), the radio-navigation system searches for the
strongest frequency signal and tunes into it.
The radio switches from one frequency to another inaudibly. The programme
name appearing on the display is not changed. The control wheel ⇒page 39
displays the corresponding frequency.
Note
To ensure optimum reception, the alternative frequency function will auto-
matically be set to on when you switch on the navigation system or switch to
another station.

Adjusting sound settings
60DSP ("Digital Signal Processing")GALA are the German initials for the speed-dependent
volume adjustment function.– Press the control button for the Sound function from an audio or
SETUP menu or
– Select DSP ⇒ page 59, fig. 74 .
– Select GALA ⇒ fig. 76.
– Select on of the five levels ⇒ fig. 76 or
– Select off . The function will be switched off.The GALA function boosts the volume level accordingly as the vehicle's speed
increases to drown out background noise.
If you select level 1, the volume will only be boosted slightly as speed
increases. If you select level 5, the volume will be boosted more strongly as
speed increases.
Dynamic noise compensation*Dynamic noise compensation automatically adjusts the music volume so that
the music is not drowned out by background noise. The volume will seem to
maintain its normal decibel strength.
The dynamic noise compensation function responds to both continuous and
transient background noise.
How does the dynamic noise compensation work?
A microphone in the interior registers the music volume and the volume of
background noise. The background noise is then digitally analysed and proc-
essed by the system. At the same time, the sound system boosts the play-
back volume accordingly in the affected frequency range so that the music
can still be heard clearly.
Note
Any malfunction of the AudioPilot system is indicated by a triple warning
gong which sounds when the navigation system is switched on. If this should
happen, please have the AudioPilot system checked by a qualified
workshop.

matically to a level set by the factory. If the volume is too low when the radio
is turned on, it will be increased automatically to a level set by the factory.
