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. 

Basic functions when using voice control
Adjusting the volume
You can change the sound volume at any time with the radio button or with
the buttons on the multifunction control.
The volume transmitted by the speaker depends, among other aspects, on
the volume transmitted by the mobile. If the volume of the mobile is low, or
on silent, it is possible that no sound will be heard through the car speaker.
Adjust the volume of your Bluetooth device to the maximum.
Do not leave headphones connected to the Bluetooth device when you wish
to use the hands free system.
Complying with these requirements, if the speaker volume is very high, ad-
just it using the controls on the steering wheel or the volume control on the
radio.
Connecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒ Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to start the dialogue at any moment.
If the system does not recognise your command, there is a first help option
which allows a new input. After the second failed attempt, the system re-
peats the second part of the assistance cue. After a third failure the system
will answer with “Operation cancelled” and the dialogue will be ended. Disconnecting voice control (Dialogue)
Briefly press the “PTT” button ⇒  Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  on the steering
wheel multifunction control to end the dialogue at any moment. If the sys-
tem is waiting for a command, you can end the dialogue with the “CANCEL”
command.
Interrupting an on-going message
By pressing the “PTT button” ⇒  Fig. 91  or ⇒ Fig. 92  during the mes-
sage, only the current message is ended and it is possible to give another
command. 
Proper use of the voice control
Note the following to ensure that you are properly understood:
● Speak in a normal tone and without pauses or exaggerated pronuncia-
tion.
● Avoid poor articulation of words.
● Keep the doors, windows and sun roof closed if possible to avoid back-
ground noises that might affect the system.
● Keep the air vents directed away from the microphone (located on the
interior light).
● At high speeds, you might need to speak louder to drown out back-
ground noises.
● Avoid other noises in the vehicle during a dialogue (e.g. other passen-
gers speaking in the vehicle).
● Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.
● The hands-free microphone is directed towards the driver, therefore, on-
ly the driver should try to operate the system.
● To make a call when there is heavy background noise we recommend us-
ing the speech controlled telephone book instead of speaking individual
digits. This will help avoid mistakes when specifying telephone numbers. 

gaged, the volume of the radio and navigation system is lowered to make
manoeuvring easier and so that acoustic warnings are audible. If the maximum start-up volume is set very low, the navigation system an-
nouncements will also be lowered to this level. This may mean that the vol-
ume of the navigation system requires turning up each time the unit is
switched on.
Functional description of speed-dependent volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed dependent volume adjustment automatically increases the vol-
ume as the vehicle speed increases.
The degree to which the volume increases with speed is adjusted on a scale

vehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At 0
speed-dependent volume control is switched off (display: Off).
