USB/AUX-IN multimedia interface*
Introduction
Depending on the market and the features, the vehicle may have a USB -AUX-IN connection ⇒ Fig. 20.
The infotainment system enables you to play and manage audio files froman external data medium connected to the USB/AUX-IN multimedia inter-face.
Where this manual refers to external data media, this means USB mass stor-age devices containing supported audio files, such as MP3 players and USBsticks.
The USB - AUX-IN multimedia interface supplies the usual USB voltage of 5volts.

Standard repre-sentation: AUX-IN menu.
The external audio source connected to it is played over the vehicle speak-ers and cannot be controlled via the radio-navigation system.
An external audio source connected to the socket is indicated by AUX on thescreen.
Connecting an external audio source to the AUX IN multimedia socket
●
Reduce the base volume of the infotainment system.
●
Connect the external audio source by connecting the AUX-IN multimediajack.
●
Start playback of the external audio source.
●
In the MEDIA main menu press the function button MEDIA and selectAUX ⇒ Fig. 19.
29Audio modeThe output volume of the connected external audio source should be adjus-ted to the volume of the other audio sources ⇒ page 47.

Note
●Please read and observe the external audio source manufacturer operat-ing manual.●
Interference may be heard if the external audio source is powered fromthe vehicle’s 12-volt socket.
●
If the sound from the external audio source is too low, if possible, in-crease the output volume on the external audio source. If this is not suffi-cient, increase the input volume.
●
If the sound from the connected external audio source is too loud or dis-torted, if possible, lower the output volume on the external audio source. Ifthis is not sufficient, reduce the input volume.
Instructions for connecting data mediaFig. 20
USB/AUX-INmultimedia interface.
In the case of multimedia players and depending on the battery charge andthe quantity of data, it may take a few minutes for them to be ready for use.
If the data medium has several partitions, only the first partition will be rec-ognised.
Take into account all other instructions and limitations regarding require-ments for media sources ⇒ page 20.
Note
●Read and bear in mind the manufacturer's instruction manual for the ex-ternal data medium.●
The connecting adaptor used must not be crushed or bent sharply. Thiscould damage the adaptor and cause operational faults.
●
To play music, do not simultaneously link the external media player tothe infotainment system using Bluetooth and the USB/AUX-IN multimediainterface, as this can cause limitations in the playback.
●
The use of USB cable extensions and USB hubs may cause operating er-rors.
32PHONE mode*●Consult the compatibility list to ensure your mobile phone will workproperly.●
If you detect any strange behaviour between your mobile phone and theradio, restart your mobile by switching it off and on again.
●
Most electronic devices are shielded against high-frequency radio sig-nals. On certain occasions, nevertheless, electronic equipment might notbe protected against the radio frequency signals of the telephone manage-ment (Phone). This may produce interference.
Places with special regulations
Switch off the mobile phone and the preinstallation for mobile telephonesin places with risk of explosion. These areas are common but are not alwaysclearly marked ⇒ in Introduction to telephone management on page 31.They include, for example:
●
Areas with piping and reservoirs containing chemical products.
●
Below deck, on boats and ferries.
●
Near vehicles that run on liquefied gas (such as propane or butane).
●
In places where there are chemical substances or particles such as flour,dust or metal chips in the air.
●
In any other place where you must turn off the engine of your vehicle.
WARNINGSwitch off your mobile phone in places with risk of explosion! Your mo-bile phone will automatically connect to the mobile phone network assoon as the Bluetooth connection is cut from the mobile preinstallation.
NoteIn areas with special requirements and where the use of mobile phones isprohibited, you must keep the mobile phone and its preinstallation switch-ed off at all times. The radiation emitted by mobile phones when switchedon can cause interference in sensitive technical and medical equipment,which could damage this equipment or cause it to stop working properly.
Linking and connecting your mobile phone to
the infotainment system
To operate a mobile phone through the infotainment system, you need tolink both devices one time only.
For your safety, we recommend you carry out this connection when the vehi-cle is stationary. In some countries you cannot perform the pairing with thevehicle running.
You must guarantee the following setup in the mobile phone and the info-tainment system:
●
The Bluetooth® function must be active and visible on the mobile phoneand infotainment system, respectively.
●
The keypad lock of the mobile phone must be disconnected.
●
The notification and key tones of your mobile phone must be disconnec-ted.
In some countries, after switching the ignition on, the Bluetooth® functionof the infotainment system must be activated or remain visible for around 3minutes.
During the linking process you must enter data using your mobile phone'skeypad. To do so, you must have your mobile phone to hand.
34PHONE mode*Note●The behaviour may vary depending on the device connected.●
For some android mobile devices you must accept the request to accessthe PBAP phonebook after linking, to be able to access the phonebook. It isrecommended to activate the option “always” so as not to have to accept itevery time you connect.
General information
Please refer to the notes on using a mobile phone in the vehicle withoutconnection to exterior antenna ⇒ Booklet Instruction Manual, chapter Ac-cessories and technical modifications.
Only use devices that support Bluetooth. At your SEAT dealership, or on theInternet, you will find information about products that support Bluetooth.
Take into account the instruction manual of the mobile phone and of themanufacturer of the accessories. In areas with poor coverage there may beanomalies in the reception and calls may be interrupted.
Most electronic devices are shielded against radio frequency signals (high-frequency). On some occasions, nevertheless, electronic devices cannot beprotected against the radio frequency signals from the telephone manager.This may produce interference.
Note
●There may be restrictions on the use of Bluetooth devices in some coun-tries. Information is available from the local authorities.●
To connect the phone manager to a device via Bluetooth technology,read the corresponding instruction manual for the particular safety instruc-tions. Only use products that support Bluetooth.
Bluetooth®
Bluetooth®
Bluetooth technology is used to connect a mobile phone to the vehicle'sphone manager. To use the phone manager with a mobile phone with Blue-tooth, the pairing process must be performed once.
If a connection has already been established, some mobile phones withBluetooth are recognised and a connection is established with them auto-matically when the ignition is switched on. For this purpose, the mobilephone and its Bluetooth must be switched on, and all the live Bluetoothconnections with other devices must be closed.
The Bluetooth wireless connection is free.
Bluetooth® is a registered trademark of Bluetooth® SIG, Inc.
Bluetooth profiles®
When you connect a mobile phone to the phone manager, the data ex-change is through one of the 2 Bluetooth profiles.
●
Hands-free Bluetooth profile (HFP): If a mobile phone is connected tothe telephone manager through the HFP, calls can be made wirelesslythrough the hands-free device.
●
Advanced audio profile (A2DP): Bluetooth profile for transmitting audiosignals with stereo quality.
Description of the telephone manager
Some functions and settings can only be carried out when the vehicle is sta-tionary, and are not compatible with all mobile telephones.
