General information This system allows you to connect your mo-
bile phone via Bluetooth connection and to
use the hands-free mode.
The hands-free device means that the tele-
phone can be used inside the vehicle; the
driver will not have to remove their hands
from the steering wheel nor will be distracted
from traffic.
Available functions include making calls in
hands-free mode, access to the mobile
phone address book, access to the call list
and control of the voice recognition system.
Before using the Bluetooth system, the mo-
bile phone should be connected to the vehi-
cle installation via Bluetooth
›››
page 74. Switching on/off
The Bluetooth system is activated when the
ignition is turned on and it is deactivated
when the key is removed from the ignition.
With the system activated, if the button
››› Fig. 80 
(“PTT”) is pressed the voice con-
trol activates, and if there is no telephone
connected, Bluetooth visibility is turned on
and a search for a telephone begins.
If there is a call in process when the system
is deactivated, the active call is not cancel-
led, but transferred to the mobile phone.
Bluetooth
Use compatible Bluetooth devices only. For
more information about compatible Blue-
tooth products, consult your dealership or
the SEAT website. 1)
If a telephone is already connected via Bluetooth
to the PND

Communications and multimedia
Some Bluetooth mobile phones are detected
and connected automatically when the igni-
tion is switched on. For this to take place the
telephone must be switched on and its Blue-
tooth function activated, and there must be
no active Bluetooth connection from other
devices.
Bluetooth connections are free.

Exchange of information between the mobile
phone and the Bluetooth system
The mobile phone system sends the data and
the requests via Bluetooth to the mobile
phone that is connected. If the connected
mobile phone is temporarily “overloaded”, it
may not respond to the requests from the
Bluetooth system.
In this case, wait for the mobile phone to re-
act or make a new call. WARNING
● Before starting the trip, you should famili-
arise yourself with the different functions of
the Bluetooth system. Bluetooth system set-
tings should adjusted when the car is stop-
ped or by a passenger.
● Please concentrate on driving. As the driv-
er, you are also responsible for road safety.
For this reason, you should only use the func-
tions when the traffic situation allows so and
in a manner that allows you to maintain con-
trol of the vehicle. Otherwise, you run the risk
of causing an accident.
● The speech system must not be used in ca-
ses of emergency, since the voice changes in
stressful situations. This could result in a
failed or delayed telephone connection. Al-
ways dial emergency numbers manually!
● Always observe applicable legislation.
● Adjust the volume so that external warning
sounds (e.g. emergency vehicles, etc.) are al-
ways audible. Note
● The voice control system is only available
in the following languages: Spanish, Mexican
Spanish, German, English, French, Canadian
French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian
and Dutch. For other languages, the prede-
fined language for the voice instructions is
English. Please take the vehicle to technical
services if you wish to change the language. ●
There may be restrictions on the use of
Bluetooth devices in some countries. Infor-
mation is available from the local authorities.
● If you connect the mobile phone Bluetooth
system to a Bluetooth device, consult the
safety warnings in its instruction manual. Use
compatible Bluetooth products only.
● If a call is received or made using the Blue-
tooth system when the radio is switched off,
this will always automatically turn on provid-
ing that the ignition is switched on. The mes-
sage Phone will appear on the radio display
when a c a

ll is received.
● If a call is received or made, the sound of
the radio programme or other audio source
that is currently being listened to will be mut-
ed in order for the telephone conversation to
be carried out without unpleasant back-
ground noise.
● Adjust the volume of the conversation on
the mobile phone to “maximum” and modify
the volume on the radio volume control. Compatibility with mobile phones
New models of mobile phones are being re-
leased constantly by the different brands,
with different operating systems and differ-
ent ways of operating. For this reason there
are some mobile phones that do not perform
some of the functions correctly or are even
totally incompatible. To help you when

Operation
choosing a mobile phone, SEAT offers the re-
sults of the compatibility tests on different
mobile phones. Visit the SEAT website or ask
at your dealer.
Depending on your mobile phone model, cer-
tain functions may not be available or it may
be necessary to change the configuration. Fa-
miliarise yourself with your phone and read
the instruction manual to learn the possibili-
ties it offers.
Even when the mobile phone appears as
compatible in our list, we have noticed that
occasionally it is possible that the phone
presents an abnormal behaviour with the
system due to software errors. In this case,
we recommend you update the telephone
software. Mobile phone manufacturers usual-
ly make updates available on Internet for
their customers in order to improve the work-
ing of the phone.
In the event that you have various applica-
tions to make calls, such as internet calling,
the mobile will ask you from which applica-
tion you wish to make the call. Until confir-
mation is given you will not be able to make
the call.
If you try to make a call and it is not pro-
cessed, check your mobile phone as it is pos-
sible that a pop-up window on your tele-
phone is requesting you to select the pro-
gram with which to make the call. Bluetooth system components

BRadio ››› Booklet Radio User profile
Each telephone must be paired to the Blue-
tooth system before using it for the first time.
When pairing a mobile phone for the first
time, you will be asked to create a user pro-
file. A user profile is necessary for you to con-
nect the mobile phone to the SEAT Bluetoothsystem. Once the user profile has been cre-
ated, your telephone can be connected auto-
matically or manually . It is not necessary to
repeat the initial connection process each
time.
A maximum of four user profiles can be cre-
ated. If you try to create a fifth profile, the
profile which has been inactive for the most
time will automatically be deleted.
The pairing process can take several minutes
depending on the size of the phone book.
The procedure for pairing your mobile phone
to the SEAT system for the first time is descri-
bed below.
Pairing the mobile phone Follow the steps below to connect the mobile
phone to the vehicle's Bluetooth by search-
ing for devices from the mobile phone:
●
Activate the Bluetooth in the mobile phone.
● Turn on the ignition with the key. The vehi-
cle system will be visible to the mobile phone
via Bluetooth for 3 minutes. If 3 minutes have
passed you can also switch on Bluetooth visi-
bility again for 3 minutes more by pressing
the button  (“PTT”) ›››
Fig. 80 .
● Se ar

ch for Bluetooth devices using the mo-
bile phone. Refer to the mobile phone man-
ual for instructions.
