General information on operating the unit
Introduction
If system settings are modified, some aspects of the unit's operation may
differ from the descriptions given in this manual. For this reason, SEAT rec-
ommends that you reset the unit to its factory settings the first time you use
it ⇒ page 102.
Additional Information:
● Safety notes ⇒ page 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
● Multifunction steering wheel, to change track or station ⇒ Booklet Own-
er's Manual, chapter Vehicle overview
Note
Lightly pressing the buttons or briefly pressing the touchscreen is sufficient
to operate the unit.
Note
Never press a button down for longer than 10 minutes. Otherwise the sys-
tem will interpret this as a malfunction ( button jammed).
Note
Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected on
the screen when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.
Note
Using a mobile telephone in the vehicle may cause noise from the vehicle
loudspeakers.
Note
In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the vol-
ume of the loudspeakers is automatically lowered when reverse gear is en-
gaged. If talking on the telephone through the radio and navigation system,
the volume of the conversation is also lowered automatically when reverse
gear is engaged.
Note
Restrictions on the use of devices using Bluetooth technology may be appli-
cable in some countries. Please ask your local authority for further informa-
tion.
Switching on and off
With the ignition on, press the rotary/push knob
⇒ Fig. 1 1 briefly to
manually switch the unit on or off.
When the unit is switched on, the system starts, and the last selected audio
source is played at the last selected volume, provided this is not greater
than the “start-up volume” ⇒ page 101.
When the key is removed from the ignition, the radio and navigation unit
automatically switches off. If the unit comes on again without the ignition
being switched on, it will switch off automatically after 30 minutes (switch-
off delay).
Anti-theft coding
The anti-theft code is stored in the vehicle once it has been entered (con-
venience radio code). The anti-theft coding lock then only needs to be re-
leased manually if the unit is installed in another vehicle. In such a case, a
keypad field and a prompt to enter the code will appear when the unit is
switched on. In this case, you should contact a SEAT dealership.

unit button from any menu.
● Press the Sound function button at the bottom-left of the screen to open

Changing the volume settings and adjustments
The volume settings and adjustments can be pre-defined.
While volume settings are being adjusted, the currently active audio source
is played at the level of the setting as it changes.
● In the Sound main menu, press the Volume
function button
⇒ Fig. 94.
● Press the function button Max. switch-on volume, Traffic announcements (TP)⇒
page 21, Navigation volume or Speed-dependent vol. adjustment to open the cor-
responding settings menu.
● Turn the setting knob or press the
or function button.
● Pressing the Vol. reduction function button opens a pop-up window in
which you can set the automatic audio volume reduction applied when the
parking distance warning system (PDC) is active. When reverse gear is en-
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
between 1 and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases only slightly as the speed of the
vehicle increases. At a high setting the volume increases further. At 0
speed-dependent volume control is switched off (display: Off).
