Introduction
WARNING
Opening the housing on a CD player can lead to injuries from invisible la-
ser radiation.
● CD players should only be 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 31.
● Applying force may destroy the memory card slot's locking mechanism.
● Only use suitable memory cards ⇒ page 27.
CAUTION
● When inserting and removing a CD, always hold it flat and at a right an-
gle to the front of the unit. Inserting or removing them at an angle to the
drive can lead to scratching ⇒ page 30.
● 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.
CAUTION
Any foreign objects attached to a data medium and non-round data media
can damage the CD player.
● Only clean standard 12 cm CDs should be used.
– Do not stick stickers or other items to the CDs. Stickers may peel off
and damage the drive.
– Do not insert 8 cm single CDs or non-round CDs (shaped CDs).
– Do not insert DVD Plus discs, dual discs or flip discs, as these are
thicker than normal CDs. Versions available

General information on operating the unit
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 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
● 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
loudspeakers.
Note
In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the vol-
ume of the loudspeakers is automatically lowered when reverse gear is en-
gaged. 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. 1 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” ⇒ page 99.
When the key is removed from the ignition, the radio and navigation unit
automatically switches off. If the unit comes on again without the ignition
being switched on, it will switch off automatically after 30 minutes (switch-
off delay).
Anti-theft coding
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 dealership.

WARNING
Your attention may be distracted from the traffic if you use the radio and
navigation system while driving, resulting in accident.
● Always stay alert and drive responsibly.
WARNING (Continued)
● 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
The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged if the volume is too high or the
sound is distorted.
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.

played.
Fig. 67 Map view during
route guidance
When route guidance starts, the system automatically switches to the map
view ⇒ Fig. 66. The red symbol indicates the vehicle's position and heading ⇒ Fig. 66. If
the vehicle position symbol remains in the same position and the map view freezes, it is currently not possible to determine the vehicle's position,
e.g. in a multi-storey car park.
During route guidance the navigation route is shown as a blue line. Sec-
tions closed to traffic either manually or due to TMC messages advising of
traffic congestion
⇒ page 69 are shown in colour on the calculated route.
The next road to take is displayed in the top line of the screen.
After a few seconds, the function buttons disappear from the bottom line of
the screen to display more information on the route ⇒ Fig. 67.
● Briefly press the bottom-right or bottom-left area of the screen to display
the function buttons again ⇒ Fig. 66.
● Pressing the NAV
unit button switches between the
Navigation main
menu and the map view.
When the function buttons are hidden, the current street and information
about the journey length are displayed on the bottom line of the screen
⇒ Fig. 67.

: Expected time of arrival or travelling time ⇒ page 72.
Shortly before you reach a turning point, a turning arrow appears, indicating
the direction to turn. The distance to the turning point is also displayed be-
low it.
Changing the map scale (Autozoom)
The “Autozoom” function is enabled for the map view by default. This
means that the map view automatically zooms in and out: Small scale on
motorways. Large scale in urban areas.
● Turn the setting knob ⇒ Fig. 1 10
to manually change the scale of the
map for a few seconds. Turn the knob clockwise to zoom in. Turn the knob
anticlockwise to zoom out.
● To permanently retain the manually selected map scale, “Autozoom”
must be deactivated in the Navigation setup menu ⇒ page 72.

Telephone control (Phone)
WARNING
If you use mobile phones or two-way radios in the car without connection
to an external aerial, electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could ex-
ceed limit values. This also may occur to external aerials that have not
been correctly installed.
● Maintain a distance of at least 20 centimetres between mobile phone
aerials and pacemakers, as mobile phones may have a negative effect on
pacemakers.
● Mobile phones must not be carried in shirt pockets, directly over the
pacemaker.
● If you suspect interference, switch off the telephone immediately.
Link and connect the mobile phone to a radio and
navigation system
Fig. 77 Setup: Bluetooth
settings.
Fig. 78 Bluetooth set-
tings: BT equipment.
To use a mobile phone via the radio and navigation system, it is necessary
to establish a connection between both units once.
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.
