All displays appear only after completely re-
starting the radio system. Note
● Only a sm
all amount of pressure is needed
to operate the unit.
● Due to country-specific legislation, certain
function
s cannot be selected when the vehi-
cle is travelling above a certain speed.
● Using a mobile telephone in the vehicle
may
cause noise from the vehicle loudspeak-

Rotary/push knobs
The left-hand rotary/push knob
››› Fig. 1 8 is referred to as the volume con-
tro l
or the on/off switch.
The right-hand rotary/push knob 14 is refer-
r ed t
o a
s the setting knob.
Unit buttons and function buttons
The labelled buttons on the unit are referred
to as “unit buttons” and are pictured as a
button symbol with, e.g. the MEDIA unit but-
t on ›

Ther e ar
e 5 u
nlabelled unit buttons below the
screen ›››
Fig. 1 11 . These unit buttons are re-
f err
ed t
o as “function buttons” as their func-
tions depend on the active function mode.
The function assigned to a function button is
shown on the corresponding button in the
lower section of the display (e.g. ›››
Fig. 2). Switching on and off ●
To switch the unit on or off manually, briefly
pre s
s the rotary knob ››› Fig. 1 8 .
When the unit i
s switched on the system
starts up. The last audio source used is
played at the last selected volume setting,
provided this does not exceed the preselec-
ted “switch-on volume” ( Volume ›››
page 18).
D ependin
g on the unit and country in ques-
tion, the unit is switched off when the engine
is turned off or the key is removed. If the unit
comes on again without the ignition being
switched on, it will switch off automatically
after 30 minutes (switch-off delay).
Energy management
If, when the ignition is switched off and the
unit switched on, the battery voltage falls be-
low the minimum onboard power supply volt-
age, an audible warning sounds and LOW
BATTERY appears. You should switch the
unit off.
Anti-theft encryption
Once the anti-theft code has been entered for
the first time, it remains stored in the vehicle
(convenience radio coding). If you have to en-
ter the anti-theft code manually, for example,
if you have fitted the unit in another vehicle,
consult a Seat dealer. »

and audio DMB)*
Introduction Some units are equipped with an additional
DAB r
a
dio receiver.
The DAB radio receiver supports the DAB,
DAB+ and DMB-Audio broadcasting stand-
ards.
In Europe, digital radio is transmitted via
Band III frequencies (174 MHz to 240 MHz)
and the L Band (1452 MHz to 1492 MHz).
The frequencies of the two bands are referred
to as “channels” and each has a channel
name e.g. 12 A .
Several DAB stations are combined into one
channel with the additional services availa-
ble in a “block”.
DAB is currently not available in all areas . In
areas without DAB, is displayed in DAB ra-
dio mode. The system and functions settings
allow in this case a change of FM station
››› page 18. In the system and functions
settings there is the configuration of other
settings for the tracking of stations and for
playing DAB notifications. Note
The radio stations are responsible for the
cont ent
of the information sent.10

Additional DAB stations
Some DAB stations temporarily or perma-
nently offer additional stations, (for example,
for broadcasting sports events).
If there is an additional station available, this
will also be indicated in the main display
next to the name of the station. In the list of
stations, additional stations are identified by
“2nd” on the right margin.
To move to an additional station, select the

Functional description of speed-dependent
volume adjustment (GALA)
The speed-dependent volume regulation au-
tomatically increases the volume as the vehi-
cle speed increases.
You can set the degree to which the volume
increases with speed on a scale between 1
and 7.
If a low value is set, the volume increases on-
ly slightly as the speed of the vehicle increa-
ses. At a high setting the volume increases
further. At 0 speed-dependent volume ad-
justment is switched off.
DAB-FM LINKING Function
If reception of the currently selected DAB sta-
tion is lost (e.g. no DAB available), the unit
attempts to find the station on the FM fre-
quency band and tune to it.
Automatic station tracking between frequen-
cy bands only works if the DAB station and
the FM station transmit the same station
identifier or the DAB signal indicates a corre-
sponding station on the FM frequency band. »
