The Telephone functions described below
can be used through the Infotainment system
if there is a mobile telephone connected to it
via Bluetooth ®
››› page 64.
In order for the mobile telephone to be able
to connect to the Infotainment system the tel-
ephone must be equipped with Bluetooth®
.
If there is no mobile telephone connected to
the Infotainment system, the telephone man-
agement system will not be available.
The instructions shown on the screen for the
telephone menus will depend on the mobile
telephone used. There may be variations.
Only use compatible Bluetooth ®
devices. For
further information on compatible Blue-
tooth ®
products, ask your nearest SEAT deal-
er or check on the internet.
Use the instruction manual of the mobile tel-
ephone and of any accessories. If you detect any operating issues between
your mo
b

ile telephone and the Infotainment
system, restart your mobile by switching it off
and on again.
You may experience poor reception or may be
cut off in areas where the signal is weak.
Most electronic devices are shielded against
HF (high-frequency) signals. In any case, the
electronic equipment may not be protected
from the HF signals of the telephone man-
agement system. This may cause interfer-
ence. WARNING
Speaking by telephone and operating the mo-
bi l

e telephone whilst driving can distract you
from the road and cause an accident.
● Always drive carefully and responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to
eas
ily hear signals from outside the vehicle
at all times (e.g. emergency services sirens
and horns).
● In areas of little or no coverage or, in some
case
s, in a tunnel, garage or underpass, your
call may be cut off and you may not be able to
make even emergency calls. WARNING
If a mobile telephone is not secured or is in-
corr ectly

secured in the vehicle, it could move
around the passenger compartment in the event of a sudden driving manoeuvre or emer-
gency
s

top, resulting in injury.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always se-
cure the mo
bile telephone properly outside
the airbag deployment zone. WARNING
Mobile telephones may interfere with and al-
t er the c orr

ect operation of pacemakers if
they are carried directly over them.
● Maintain a minimum distance of at least
20 centimetre
s between the aerials of the
mobile telephone and the pacemaker, as mo-
bile phones may affect the functioning of
pacemakers.
● Do not carry your switched-on mobile tele-
phone in your br
east pocket directly over the
pacemaker.
● If you suspect interference, switch off the
mobi
le telephone immediately. CAUTION
High speeds, poor weather or road conditions
and the quality of

reception can all affect the
quality of a telephone conversation in the ve-
hicle. Note
● Re s

trictions on the use of devices using
Bluetooth ®
technology may apply in some
countries. For further information, contact the
local authorities. 62

●
If y
ou wish to connect a device to the tele-
phone management system via Bluetooth ®
technology, consult the safety warnings in its
instruction manual. Only use compatible
Bluetooth ®
devices. Areas where special regulations apply
Switch off the mobile telephone and the mo-
bi
l

e Bluetooth function in places with a risk
of explosion. In the majority of cases, these
places are signposted, but not always clearly
››› in General information on page 62.
They
inc lude, f

or example:
● the vicinity of chemical pipelines and tanks
● The lower decks of boats and ferries.
● In the proximity of vehicles that run on liq-
uid gas
(such as propane or butane).
● places where the air is laden with chemi-
cals
or particles such as flour, dust or metal
powder.
● all other places where the vehicle engine
must
be switched off. WARNING
Switch off the mobile phone in areas with a
risk of

explosion! The mobile telephone can
automatically connect to the mobile tele-
phone network again if it loses the Blue-
tooth ®
connection to the telephone manage-
ment system. CAUTION
In areas where special regulations apply or
the use of mo

bile telephones is prohibited,
both the telephone and the telephone man-
agement system must be switched off. The
radiation produced by the mobile telephone
when switched on may interfere with sensi-
tive technical and medical equipment, possi-
bly resulting in a malfunction or damage to
the equipment. Bluetooth
® Bluetooth
®
tec
hno
logy allows a mobile tele-
phone to be connected to your vehicle's tele-
phone management system. In order to use
the telephone management system with a
mobile telephone with Bluetooth ®
technolo-
gy, it is first necessary to pair them.
Some Bluetooth ®
mobile telephones detect
and automatically connect when turning on
the ignition if a connection has been previ-
ously established. For this to take place the
telephone must be switched on and its Blue-
tooth ®
function activated, and there must be
no active Bluetooth ®
connection with other
devices.
Bluetooth ®
connections are free.
Bluetooth ®
is a registered trademark of
Bluetooth ®
SIG, Inc. Bluetooth profiles
®
When a mobi
le phone is connected to the tel-
ephone management system, a data ex-
change takes place via one of the Bluetooth ®
profiles.
● Hands-free Bluetooth profile (HFP): If a mo-
bi
le telephone is connected to the telephone
manager through the HFP, calls can be made
wirelessly through the hands-free device.
This function also requires other Bluetooth
profiles such as the phonebook download
and instant messaging.
● Audio profile (A2DP): Bluetooth profi
le for
transmitting audio signals with stereo quali-
ty. This function can also connect other addi-
tional Bluetooth profiles for viewing tracks
and for controlling playback on the mobile
device. Note
To prevent them from being heard through
the spe ak

ers, the button and mobile tele-
phone alert tones must be disconnected.
Where necessary, disconnect the headset
from the mobile telephone you wish to con-
nect to the system. 63
