82Communication
The MDI input is composed of the USB and AUX-IN inputs.
The purpose of the MDI input is to connect external devices (i.e. iPod ®
, mp3
players or USB memories) in order to play music using the audio system or
the navigation system.
In order to connect Apple multimedia devices (such as an iPod ®
/iPhone ®
…)
the corresponding adaptor from the SEAT Original Accessories catalogue is
required.
Voice control
Fig. 41 Multifunction
steering wheel: Voice
control
The time during which the system is ready to receive and execute voice com-
mands is called dialogue. The system gives off acoustic warnings and if
necessary will take you through the respective functions.
The Help menu should be used the first time the voice system is used to be-
come more familiar with the way it works. For voice commands to work optimally, certain factors must be taken into
account:
●
Speak slowly and clearly, as far as possible. The system will not recog-
nise words pronounced unclearly, or words and figures in which syllables
are omitted.
● Speak at a normal volume, without exaggerated intonation or long pau-
ses.
● Close doors, windows and sunroof to dampen and eliminate annoying
noises from outside. Do not turn the air outlets towards the roof.
● When driving at high speed you should speak louder.
● Keep accidental noise in the vehicle during the dialogue to a minimum,
e.g. passengers talking at the same time.
● Do not talk while the system is providing information.
The voice-control microphone is located in the roof trim and faces the driver
and front passenger. This is why the driver and front passenger should use
the device.
Enter the telephone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous row of digits memo-
rised in succession (the whole number at once) or as blocks of digits (sepa-
rated by brief pauses). After each series of digits (separated by a brief
pause) the digits recognised until then are repeated.
Digits 0 - 9 and the symbols +, , # are allowed. The system does not rec-
ognise coherent numeric combinations such as twenty-three.

Roof carrier*
Introduction
WARNING
● The load on the roof carrier must be properly secured. Risk of acci-
dent!
● Always secure the load using retaining straps in good condition.
● Distribute the load evenly.
● When transporting heavy or large objects on the roof, any change in
the normal vehicle behaviour due to a change in the centre of gravity or
an increased wind resistance must be taken into account. Risk of acci-
dent! For this reason, a suitable speed and driving style must be used.
● Avoid sudden manoeuvres and braking.
● Adjust your driving style to suit visibility, the weather and road and
traffic conditions.
● Never exceed the allowed axle loads or allowed maximum weight.
Risk of accident!
CAUTION
● Only use SEAT-authorised roof carriers.
● Where roof carriers from other systems are used or where they are not
fitted properly, any damage caused to the vehicle will not be covered by the
warranty. Therefore, carefully follow the Instruction Manual for installation
of the roof carrier.
● On vehicles fitted with a sliding sunroof, make sure it does not hit the
load on the roof when opened
● Remember that the rear lid must not hit the roof load.
● The total height of the vehicle increases according to the roof load. Com-
pare the height of the vehicle with the heights of bridges or, for example,
the size of the garage door. ●
Do not forget to remove the roof carrier before entering an automatic
carwash.
● Take into account that the load must not damage the aerial located on
the roof.
For the sake of the environment
The increased air resistance means that the vehicle uses more fuel.
