Introduction
Introduction Gener a
l
operating information
Safety notes Travelling on today's roads requires the driv-
er's f
u

ll attention at all times.
Only operate the radio and its various func-
tions when the traffic situation really permits
this. WARNING
● Bef or

e starting the trip, you should famili-
arise yourself with the different radio func-
tions.
● High audio volume may represent a danger
to y
ou and to others.
● Adjust the volume in a way that you can
distin
guish surrounding noise, for example,
horns and sirens, etc.
● Radio settings should be made when the
car is
stopped or by a passenger. WARNING
Distracting the driver in any way can lead to
an acc ident

and cause injuries. Operating the
infotainment system while driving can dis-
tract your attention 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 service sirens).
● If you set the volume excessively high you
may
suffer damage to your ears. This can also
happen if you are exposed to an excessively
high volume even for a short time. WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when
y ou sw it

ch audio source or connect a new au-
dio source.
● Reduce the base volume before switching
audio source or c
onnecting a new audio
source ››› page 7. WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data me-
dium whil e driv

ing can distract your attention
from the traffic and cause an accident. WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may
ob s

truct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they
do not ob
struct the driver. WARNING
External devices that are loose or not proper-
ly sec ur

ed could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or braking manoeu-
vre, or in the ev
ent

of an accident.
● Never, for any reason, fit the external units
on the doors, on the wind
screen, on or near
the area marked “AIRBAG” on the steering
wheel, on the dash panel, on the seat backr-
ests or between these areas and the passen-
gers. These units may cause serious injury in
the event of an accident, especially if the air-
bag is activated. WARNING
The centre armrest may obstruct the driver's
arm mo vement

s, which could cause an acci-
dent and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the
vehicl
e is in motion. Note
● Not in ser

ting the data medium correctly, or
inserting unsuitable data media, may damage
the unit.
● When inserting the memory card, make
sure it
is in the correct position ››› page 22
● If you push too hard, you could damage the
lock on the memor
y card slot.
● Only use suitable memory cards.
● The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged
if the v
olume is too high or the sound is dis-
torted. 6

Radio Data Services RDS (FM band) Fig. 10
Radio text. Fig. 11
Filter (PTY). The RDS (Radio Data System) offers addition-
al
inf
orm
ation in FM such as the visualisation
of the station name, automatic station track-
ing (AF), text broadcast by radio (Radio Text
››› Fig. 8), traffic announcements (TP) and sta-
tion type (PTY). Depending on the country and the unit in
question, the RD

S can be deactivated in the
FM Settings menu ››› page 15.
Without RDS it is not possible to obtain radio
data services.
Station name and automatic station tracking
When the RDS is available, you can view the
names of the stations providing this service
in the RADIO main menu and in the list of FM stations .
The FM stations send different contents un-
der one name (for example, Radio 3) in vari-
ous regional frequencies, provisionally or
permanently ››› Fig. 8.
When driving, the automatic station tracking
automatically changes to the frequency that
provides the best reception of the currently-
selected station. However, this can interrupt
the regional station currently tuned.
The automatic changing of frequencies and
automatic station tracking can be configured
through FM Settings ››› page 15.
Set a station name
In some cases the name of the station is too
long. This text may be blocked/unblocked by
pressing on the station name for 3 seconds.
A dot will appear/disappear to the left or
right of the station name. Radio text
Some RDS-enab
led stations also broadcast
additional text information known as radio
text. The INFO button allows you to view the
radio text.
Filter by station type (PTY)
With the RDS activated, stations may provide
information on their broadcast content
(news, music, culture, etc.). As seen in figure
››› Fig. 11, it is possible to filter stations by
their content. Note
● Due t o m

atters of infrastructure, RDS func-
tions may be limited in certain countries, and
you may not be able to receive traffic an-
nouncements, automatic station tracking (AF)
or programme types (PTY). The TP button will
not function in these countries. 12

Controlling playback
The extent to which the Bluetooth ®

Audio profi

le 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 t o the l

arge number of different Blue-
tooth audio sources available, it is not possi-
ble to guarantee fault-free operation of all
functions described here.
● Deactivate the service and warning sounds
of a connect
ed Bluetooth audio source (for
example, the key tones of the mobile tele-
phone) to avoid interference noise and
anomalies in the operation.
● Depending on the external player connec-
ted, the re
sponse time of the system can
vary.
● Do not connect an external media player at
the same time to p
lay music via Bluetooth®
and via the USB port with the Infotainment
system, as this could cause playback limita-
tions.

General information The Telephone functions described below
can be u
sed thr

ough the Infotainment system
if there is a mobile telephone connected to it
via Bluetooth ®
››› page 27.
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 mobile telephone and the Infotainment system, restart your mobile by switching it off
and on again.
Y ou m

ay 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 stop, resulting in injury. ●
Whil e the

vehicle is in motion, always se-
cure the mobile 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. 26
