Phone mode Bluetooth System
General information
This system allows you to connect your mobile phone via Bluetooth connec-
tion and to use the hands-free mode, as well as connecting a multimedia
player.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Available functions include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the
phone book, access to the call list, music playback via streaming audio and
control of the voice recognition system.
Before using the Bluetooth system, the mobile phone should be connected
to the vehicle installation via Bluetooth ⇒ page 39.
Switching on/off
The Bluetooth system is activated when the ignition is turned on and it is
deactivated when the key is removed from the ignition.
With the system activated, if the “PTT” is pressed the voice control activates
and if there is no telephone connected, Bluetooth visible is turned on and a
search for a telephone is begun.
If there is a call in process when the system is deactivated, the active call is
not cancelled, but transferred to the mobile phone.
Bluetooth
Use compatible Bluetooth devices only. For more information about compat-
ible Bluetooth products, consult your dealership or the SEAT website. Some Bluetooth mobile phones are detected and connected automatically
when the ignition is switched on. For this to take place the telephone must
be switched on and its Bluetooth function activated, and there must be no
active Bluetooth connection from other devices.
Bluetooth connections are free.

Declaration of conformity
S1nn GmbH & Co. KG certifies that the UHV High unit complies with the ba-
sic requirements and the rest of the relevant provisions of the Directive
1999/5/CE. A copy of the declaration of conformity can be found at http://

Exchange of information between the mobile phone and the Bluetooth
system
The mobile phone system sends the data and the requests via Bluetooth to
the mobile phone that is connected. If the connected mobile phone is tem-
porarily “overloaded”, it may not respond to the requests from the Blue-
tooth system. The following message is shown in the instrument panel dis-
play: “Mobile phone does not respond ”.
In this case, wait for the mobile phone to react or make a new call. 

WARNING
● Please concentrate on driving. As the driver, you are also responsible
for road safety. For this reason, you should only use the functions when
the traffic situation allows so and in a manner that allows you to main-
tain control of the vehicle. Otherwise, you run the risk of causing an acci-
dent.
● The speech system must not be used in cases of emergency, since the
voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed or de-
layed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers manually!
● Always observe applicable legislation.
● Adjust the volume so that external warning sounds (e.g. emergency
vehicles, etc.) are always audible.
Note
● The voice control system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, Mexican Spanish, German, English, French, Canadian French, Ital-
ian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and Dutch. For other languages, the prede-
fined language for the voice instructions is English. Please take the vehicle
to a Technical Service if you wish to change the language.
● There may be restrictions on the use of Bluetooth devices in some coun-
tries. Information is available from the local authorities.
● If you connect the mobile phone Bluetooth system to a Bluetooth de-
vice, consult the safety warnings in its instruction manual. Use compatible
Bluetooth products only.
● If a call is received or made using the Bluetooth system when the radio
is switched off, this will always automatically turn on providing that the igni-
tion is switched on.
● If a call is received or made, the sound of the audio source that is cur-
rently being listened to will be muted in order for the telephone conversa-
tion to be carried out without unpleasant background noise.
● Adjust the volume of the conversation on the mobile phone to “maxi-
mum” and modify the volume on the radio volume control. Compatibility with mobile phones
New models of mobile phones are being released constantly by the differ-
ent brands, with different operating systems and different ways of operat-
ing. For this reason there are some mobile phones that do not perform
some of the functions correctly or are even totally incompatible. To help you
when choosing a mobile phone, SEAT offers the results of the compatibility
tests on different mobile phones. Visit the SEAT website or ask at your deal-
er.
Depending on your mobile phone model, certain functions may not be avail-
able or it may be necessary to change the configuration. Familiarise yourself
with your phone and read the instruction manual to learn the possibilities it
offers.
Even when the mobile phone appears as compatible in our list, we have no-
ticed that occasionally it is possible that the phone presents an abnormal
behaviour with the system due to software errors. In this case, we recom-
mend you update the telephone software. Mobile phone manufacturers
usually make updates available on Internet for their customers in order to
improve the working of the phone.
In the event that you have various applications to make calls, such as inter-
net calling, the mobile will ask you from which application you wish to make
the call. Until confirmation is given you will not be able to make the call.
If you try to make a call and it is not processed, check your mobile phone as
it is possible that your a pop-up window on your telephone is requesting
you to select the program with which to make the call. 

Creation of user profile
Each telephone must be paired to the Bluetooth system before using it for
the first time.
When pairing a mobile phone for the first time, you will be asked to create a
user profile. A user profile is necessary for you to connect the mobile phone
to the SEAT system. Once the user profile has been created, your telephone
can be connected automatically or manually ⇒ page 41, Automatic pair-
ing, without having to repeat the initial pairing process each time. The
phone will be connected automatically as long as the corresponding user
profile has not been deleted using the telephone menu or the Factory set-
tings function.
A maximum of four user profiles can be created. If you try to create a fifth
profile the system will ask you to erase a profile of your choice.
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 39 and ⇒ page 40. 
Pairing the mobile phone with the system in the
instrument 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: 

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 48 or via voice control ⇒ page 43.
● 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. Operation using the steering wheel buttons
