Important information
Traffic safety
Travelling on today's roads requires the driver's full attention at all times.

Only operate the Bluetooth system and its various functions when the traffic
situation really allows this.

WARNING
● Before starting the trip, you should familiarise yourself with the dif-
ferent functions of the Bluetooth system.
● High audio volume may represent a danger to you and to others.
● Adjust the volume in a way that you can distinguish surrounding
noise, for example, horns and sirens, etc.
● Bluetooth system settings should be made when the car is stopped,
or by a passenger. 

ible Bluetooth products, consult your dealership or the SEAT website.

Bluetooth technology permits the connection of a mobile phone to the vehi-

Bluetooth technology, the process of pairing them must be performed in ad-
vance.
 Introduction to the Bluetooth system 5

WARNING
● Please concentrate on driving. As the driver, you have the responsibil-
ity for your safety and that of others. For this reason, you should only use
the functions when the traffic situation allows so and in a manner that
allows you to maintain control of the vehicle. Otherwise, you run the risk
of causing an accident.
● 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) 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. 
6 Introduction to the Bluetooth system

Compatibility with mobile phones Bluetooth system components

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. Fig. 1 Display and handling components of the Bluetooth system.

In the event that you have various applications to make calls, such as inter-

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 with the Bluetooth function activated

and the visibility activated. The mobile phone must be close to the vehicle.
● The vehicle system has switched on Bluetooth visible (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.
● The connection to the system has not been deleted in the mobile.

With the ignition switched on, the system searches in the memorised Blue-
tooth devices (user profiles), and if one of these devices is found a connec-
tion attempt is made to connect to the last linked profile that meets the pre-
viously mentioned requirements. The system will continue connection at-
tempts while there is no connected device.
