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 described below. The procedure can be started from the vehicle sys-
tem using the Telephone menu on the instrument panel or from the mobile
phone. Both methods are described below ⇒ page 90 and ⇒ page 90.
Pairing the mobile phone with the system in the dash
panel menu
In order to pair the mobile phone with the vehicle's Bluetooth by searching
for devices from the Telephone menu in the instrument panel, follow the
steps below:
In the mobile phone
● Activate the Bluetooth function on your mobile phone.
● Activate the Bluetooth visibility on your mobile phone.
In the vehicle
● Turn on the ignition with the key.
● Select the Telephone menu on the instrument panel display.
● Select the function Search for Telephones to search for Bluetooth devices
within the range of the system. At the end of the search, a list of the devices
found is displayed.
Pairing the mobile phone
● Select the desired telephone from the list on the instrument panel dis-
play.
● Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone. ●
When requested, follow the steps to confirm/enter the PIN. Depending
on the technology supported by your mobile, different actions will be re-
quested.
● Upon attempting to connect for the first time, the system will ask you to
confirm that the password shown on the dash panel display is the same as
that displayed on the mobile phone. Confirmation must be made both on
the mobile device and on the instrument panel using controls on the steer-
ing wheel. This password will be a 6 digit code generated randomly each
time according to SSP technology. The system is capable of supporting SSP
(Secure Simple Pairing) in order for the pairing to be performed in a com-
pletely secure manner. SSP pairing can only be carried out if your device
supports the SSP function.
● Confirm the connection instructions in the mobile phone.
● Confirm on the instrument panel the message saying that a new profile
has been created.
● The contacts in your mobile phone book are copied to the vehicle sys-
tem.
● The pairing is complete.
Pairing with the mobile phone
Follow the instructions below to pair the mobile phone with the Bluetooth
system:
● Activate the Bluetooth in the mobile phone.
● Turn on the ignition with the key. The vehicle system will be visible to
the mobile phone via Bluetooth for 3 minutes. If the 3 minutes have passed
you can also switch on Bluetooth visible again for 3 minutes by pressing the
button “PTT”.
● Search for Bluetooth devices using the mobile phone. Refer to the mo-
bile phone manual for instructions.
● A list of devices found is displayed on the mobile phone. From this list,
select the device SEAT_BT. Upon attempting to connect for the first time,

Bluetooth System
the system will ask you to confirm that the password shown on the dash
panel display is the same as that displayed on the mobile phone. Confirma-
tion must be made both on the mobile device and on the instrument panel
using controls on the steering wheel. This password will be a 6 digit code
generated randomly each time according to SSP technology. The system is
capable of supporting SSP (Secure Simple Pairing) in order for the pairing to
be performed in a completely secure manner. SSP pairing can only be car-
ried out if your device supports the SSP function.
● Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
● When asked to do so, enter the PIN number 1234 and confirm.
● The contacts from the mobile phone's memory and/or SIM card 1)
are
transferred to the vehicle system. Some mobile phones may display a mes-
sage asking for confirmation of access to the phone book or other options,
these messages should be accepted in order for the hands free system to
access the information contained on the mobile and in order to carry out the
complete functions of the system.
● The pairing is complete.
Note
● The visibility of the Bluetooth system in the vehicle is activated for 3 mi-
nutes when the ignition is turned on with the key. After 3 minutes, if you
want to reactivate the visibility you can do so by using the menus on the in-
strument panel ⇒ page 98 or via voice control ⇒ page 93.
● If for any reason you take more than 3 minutes to perform these steps or
more than 30 seconds to enter the PIN, you will have to start the process
over again. Automatic pairing
When the telephone has been connected and the corresponding user pro-
file created, your telephone will automatically link up with the SEAT tele-
phone system under the following conditions:
● The mobile phone is switched on and the Bluetooth function and visibili-
ty are activated. The mobile phone must be close to the vehicle.
● The vehicle system has Bluetooth visibility switched on (during the 3 mi-
nutes following activation of the contact or after pressing the button “PTT”).
● The automatic connection was accepted during the questions of the first
connection.
