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

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 tele-

risk of explosion. In the majority of cases,
these places are signposted, but not always
clearly ››› in General information on

. They include, for 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.

● 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.
● Audio profile (A2DP): Bluetooth profi

function can also connect other additional
Bluetooth profiles for managing and control-
ling playback. CAUTION
● To pr ev

the mobile phone and the Infotainment sys-
tem:
● The ignition must be switched on.
● The Bluetooth ®
fu
nction of the mobile tele-
phone and the Infotainment system must be
active as well as visibility.
● The keypad lock on the mobile telephone
mus

On the screen the system will dynamically
update the names of the Bluetooth devices
found.
As soon as the search is completed, the
names of the Bluetooth ®
devices found are
displayed on-screen.
● In the Infotainment system select the mo-
bil
e telephone to which you want to connect
from the list of Bluetooth devices found. In certain circumstances, it is possible that to
finish the connection betw

een the two devi-
ces, you must enter additional data in the
mobile telephone and Infotainment system.
● If necessary, confirm the link to the mobile
telephone.
● U

se your mobile telephone to enter and
confirm y
our PIN code, as indicated in the
display of the infotainment system.
OR:
● Compare the PIN code shown on the dis-
pla
y of the Infotainment system with that
shown on the mobile telephone. If they
match, confirm on both devices.
The infotainment system and the mobile tele-
phone will now be connected to each other.
When the pairing has been finalized correct-
ly, the PHONE main menu will appear. The
phonebook and call lists stored in the mobile
phone will be loaded once the requests have
been accepted in the mobile phone. The du-
ration of the loading process depends on the
amount of data stored on the mobile tele-
phone. After loading, the data will be availa-
ble on the Infotainment system.
Pairing and connection of mobile telephones
You can pair up to 20 mobile telephones to
the Infotainment system, but only one mobile
telephone can be connected as hands-free,
28

Telephone management system (PHONE)*
and this or another device as a Bluetooth
audio pr ofi
l
e.
When the Infotainment system is switched
on, it automatically connects to the last con-
nected mobile telephone. If it is not possible
to connect to this mobile telephone, the tele-
phone management system will try to auto-
matically connect to the next mobile tele-
phone on the list of paired devices.
The maximum range of the Bluetooth ®
con-
nection is approx. 10 metres. The active
Bluetooth ®
connection disconnects if this
distance is exceeded. The connection is auto-
matically re-established as soon as the de-
vice is once again within Bluetooth ®
range.
If the maximum number of paired devices is
reached and you wish to pair another one to
the system, it will automatically replace the
one least used recently. If you wish to replace
it with another one, the user must erase it be-
forehand. To do so:
● Press the Setup button on the device while
in telephone mode.
● Pr

ess the Bluetooth function button.
● Activate the P

firm the process. Note
● It m a

y be necessary to confirm the phone-
book data transfer request on the mobile tel-
ephone.
● Check that there are no requests pending
accept
ance in your mobile phone. If there are,
this could block some of the functions in the
PHONE menu. Description of the telephone

profiles (for example, one used as a Blue-
tooth-audio player and/or another as a
hands-free telephone). Note
