If you do not remove the CD in the following
10 seconds, it will be drawn back in for safety
reasons, without changing to CD mode.

If the data on the inserted CD cannot be read
or the CD is damaged, the corresponding in-
dication will be shown on the screen.
Depending on the unit, when a CD cannot be
read it will retry three times, ejecting and re-
inserting the CD, before showing the indica-

● Uneven road surfaces and strong vibrations
may cause the CD to jump.
● If the interior temperature of the unit is too
high, it will not accept or play any more CDs.
● If, after having inserted several CDs, the in-
dication CD drive error still appears, contact a
s pec
ialist workshop. Inserting and removing memory cards

Booklet Instruction manual.
The infotainment system enables you to play
and manage audio files and some video files
from an external data medium connected to
the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface.
Where this manual refers to external data me-
dia, this means USB mass storage devices
containing supported audio files, such as
MP3 players, iPods ®
and USB sticks.
The MEDIA-IN multimedia interface supplies
the usual USB voltage of 5 volts. Adapter for connecting a data medium
The external data media are connected to the
MEDIA-IN multimedia interface using an
adaptor.
Depending on the market and features, the
adaptor is included in the supply. Other
adaptors can be purchased from your SEAT
Dealership.
Do not use memory card adaptors, USB ex-
tension cords or USB hubs!

Audio mode
Notes and restrictions
The infotainment system enables you to view,
play and manage compatible audio files
through the MEDIA-IN multimedia interface.
In the case of MTP players and depending on
the battery charge and the quantity of data, it
may take a few minutes for them to be ready
for use.
External hard discs with a capacity greater
than 32 GB must, in certain circumstances,
be reformatted to the FAT32 file system. On
the Internet, for example, you will find pro-
grams and instructions for this.
If the data carrier has several partitions, only
the first partition will be recognised (except
with USB, in which the first 2 will be visible).
Take into account all other instructions and
limitations regarding requirements for media
sources.
Connecting and disconnecting an external
data medium
● Connect a suitable adaptor to the MEDIA-IN
multimedia interface.
● Connect the external data medium to the
MEDIA-IN multimedia interface via the adapt-
er.
● If necessary, switch on the external data
medium or select the appropriate data mode.
Regardless of any indications to the contrary
that there may be on the matter, the external data medium can be disconnected from the
MEDIA-IN multimedia interface at any time
without losing the data.
When disconnecting an iPod
®
or iPhone ®
from the adaptor, take care to press the two
unlocking tabs on the narrow sides of the
iPod ®
connector simultaneously.
Operating the infotainment system
An external data medium that is correctly
connected to the MEDIA-IN multimedia inter-
face can be operated using the infotainment

source. Once playback of the Bluetooth audio
source has finished, the infotainment system
will remain in AUDIO BT mode.
Controlling playback
The extent to which the Bluetooth audio
source can be controlled via the infotainment
system depends on the Bluetooth audio
source connected.

Audio mode
Media players with the AVRCP Bluetooth pro-
file, the playback of the Bluetooth audio
source can be started and stopped automati-
cally when changing to Bluetooth audio
mode, or to another audio source. In addi-
tion, it is possible to view or change the track
via the infotainment system. Note
Due to the large number of different Blue-
tooth audio sources available, it is not possi-
ble to guarantee fault-free operation of all
functions described here. Note
● Deactivate the service and warning sounds
of a connected Bluetooth audio source (for
example, the key tones of the mobile phone)
to avoid interference noise and anomalies in
the operation.
● Depending on the external player connec-
ted, the response time of the system can
vary.
● To ensure your BT player works correctly,
check the compatibility lists first. Changing tracks in the main menu

Navigation
Navigation Introduction and operation of
the navigation system Introduction General information
The current position of the vehicle is deter-
mined through the GPS satellite system
(Global Positioning System). Sensors in the
vehicle measure distances driven. With the
detailed material stored in the map, and ac-
cording to the traffic news stored, all the val-
ues obtained are compared. Similarly, the
traffic reports are taken into account to calcu-
late the route (dynamic navigation
››› page 35 ). With all the data available, the
n av
igation system calculates the optimum
route to the destination.
The destination is defined by entering an ad-
dress or a point of interest, e.g. a petrol sta-
tion or hotel.
Spoken instructions and visual guidance on
the navigation unit and the combi-instrument
direct you to your destination.
Depending on the country, some infotain-
ment system functions can no longer be se-
lected when the vehicle is travelling above a
certain speed. This is not an operational er- ror; it is to comply with the legal require-
ments.
Limitations during navigation Possible errors during navigation
When the navigation system cannot receive
data from the GPS satellites (dense tree foli-
age, underground parking areas), it is possi-
ble to proceed with navigation using the sys-
tem of vehicle sensors.
For the navigator to work properly, navigation
should begin when the signal is received
from the satellite.
In areas that are not or only partially digitised
on the data medium (e.g. insufficient defini-
tion of one-way streets and road categories),
the navigation system will still attempt to
provide route guidance.
If navigation data are unavailable or incom-
plete, the navigation system may be unable
to determine the exact vehicle position. As a
result, the navigation may not be as exact as
usual.
Area of navigation and validity of the
navigation data
Roads and streets are subject to constant
change (e.g. new roads, changes to street
names and house numbers). After some
time, navigation data will no longer be up-to-date. This may lead to inaccurate or incorrect
route guidance.
Current navigation data media and versions
for other countries are available from SEAT
dealerships.
Note
The user must pay attention to the road
signs, which take precedence over those
shown on the screen. Use navigation data from a memory
card
Memory cards containing updated navigation
data can be obtained from SEAT dealerships.
●
Insert the memory card ›››
page 23 .
● Do not remove the memory card while test-
ing. Wait for the testing icon to disappear.
If the inserted memory card contains valid
navigation data, the following message ap-
pears: “The source contains a valid naviga-
tion database”. It is now possible to navigate
with the memory card data. When the memo-
ry card is no longer needed by the hardware,
it will be prepared for removal ›››
page 23.

Navigation
Note
● Do not remove the memory card while the
navigation data is in use. This could damage
the memory card!
● The navigation memory card may not be
used as memory for other files. The infotain-
ment system will not recognise the files
saved.
● SEAT recommends only using original SEAT
memory cards to use navigation data. The
use of other memory cards could limit its op-
eration. Main menu of navigation
