Introduction
Introduction Safety instructions relating to the
Infotainment system WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an accident and cause injuries. Operating the
Infotainment system can distract your atten-
tion from the traffic.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to
easily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency services sirens
and horns).
● Hearing may be impaired if using too high a
volume setting, even if only for short periods
of time. WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when
you switch audio source or connect a new au-
dio source.
● Lower the base volume before connecting
or switching audio sources. WARNING
The driving recommendations and traffic indi-
cations shown on the navigation system may
differ from the current traffic situation. ●
Traffic signs and traffic regulations have
priority over the recommendations and dis-
plays provided by the navigation system.
● Adjust your vehicle speed and driving style
to suit visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions. WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data me-
dium while driving can distract your attention
from the traffic and cause an accident. WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may
obstruct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they
do not obstruct the driver. WARNING
External devices that are loose or not proper-
ly secured could move around the passenger
compartment during a sudden driving or
braking manoeuvre or an accident and cause
damage or injury.
● Never place or fit external devices to the
doors, windscreen, steering wheel, dash pan-
el, the backs of the seats, on top of or near
the area marked “AIRBAG” or between these
areas and the occupants. External devices
can cause serious injury in an accident, espe-
cially when the airbags inflate. WARNING
The armrest may obstruct the driver's arm
movements, which could cause an accident
and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the
vehicle is in motion. WARNING
Opening a CD or DVD player's housing can
lead to injuries from invisible laser radiation.
● Have CD or DVD players repaired only by a
qualified workshop. CAUTION
The Infotainment system can be damaged by
the incorrect insertion of a data storage de-
vice or the insertion of an incompatible data
storage device.
● When inserting a data storage device, make
sure it is correctly positioned ››› page 23.
● Applying force may irreparably damage the
memory card slot locking mechanism.
● Only use compatible memory cards.
● When inserting and removing CDs and
DVDs, always hold them at right angles to the
front of the CD/DVD drive without tilting so as
not to scratch them.
● If a CD or DVD is inserted while another is
already in the unit or being ejected, the DVD
drive may be irreparably damaged. Always
wait until the data medium is completely
ejected. » 3

Audio and Media Mode
Media mode Introduction “Media sources
” are audio sources contain-
in
g audio files on various different data stor-
age devices (e.g. CD, memory card, external
MP3 player). These audio files can be played
by the Infotainment system via their corre-
sponding drives or audio input sockets (inter-
nal CD drive, memory card slot, AUX-IN multi-
media socket etc.). Copyright
Audio and video files on data storage devices
are usually protected by intellectual property
rights, as per the corresponding national and
international laws. Be aware of the current le-
gal provisions!

Restrictions and notes
Contamination, exposure to high tempera-
tures and mechanical damage may render a
data medium unusable. Please observe the
manufacturer's instructions.
Variations in the quality of data media pro-
duced by different manufacturers can lead to
problems during playback. Please observe copyright laws.
The unit may be unable to read individual
tracks or the entire data medium due to the
data medium configuration or the devices
and programs used for recording. Informa-
tion can be found on the Internet on the best
ways to create audio files and data media
(compression rate, ID3 tag etc.).
The reading time may vary considerably de-
pending on the condition of the data medium
(copying and deleting actions), folder struc-
ture and file type.Playlists only determine a certain playing or-
der.

There are no files stored in a playlist. The
unit will not play a playlist if the files are not
stored on the data medium at the locations
referred to by the playlist (relative file paths). Note
● Do not use memory card adapters.
● SEAT assumes no liability for any deteriora-
tion or loss of files on data storage devices. 24

nected. Note
● Do not connect an external media player at
the same time to play music via Bluetooth ®
and via the USB port  with the Infotain-
ment system, as this could cause playback
limitations.
● If the external player is an Apple device™,
it cannot be simultaneously connected by
USB and by Bluetooth.
● If a connected device is not recognised, dis-
connect all the connected devices and try
connecting the device again.
● Do not use memory card adaptors, USB ex-
tension cords or USB hubs! External audio source connected to

Audio and Media Mode
Controlling playback
The extent to which the Bluetooth ®
audio
source can be controlled via the Infotainment
system depends on the connected Blue-
tooth ®
audio source.
The available functions will depend on the
Bluetooth ®
Audio profile that the connected
external player supports.
With media players that support the AVRCP
Bluetooth ®
profile, playback on the Blue-
tooth ®
audio source can be automatically
started or stopped when the unit is switched
to Bluetooth ®
Audio mode or to a different
audio source. In addition, it is possible to
view or change the track via the Infotainment
system. Note
● Due to the large number of possible Blue-
tooth ®
audio sources, it is not possible to
guarantee fault-free operation of all descri-
bed functions.
● Always switch off the warning and service
tones on a connected Bluetooth ®
audio
source, e.g. key tones on a mobile telephone,
to prevent possible interference noise and
malfunctions.
● Do not connect an external media player to
play music via Bluetooth ®
and via the USB
port ››› page 31 at the same time with the Infotainment system, as this could cause
playback limitations.
● If the external player is an Apple device™,
it cannot be simultaneously connected by
USB and by Bluetooth. Jukebox (SSD)
