Loading a memory card
The navigation system is equipped with two MP3 memory
card readers.
– Press the button ⇒page 24, fig. 27 to open the display.
– Insert the memory card (printed side faces up, contact surface faces down) into the slot of the card reader ⇒fig. 28. The
missing corner of the memory card must face to the front right (in
the direction of travel) ⇒fig. 29 .
– T h e n p u s h t h e m e m o r y c a r d i n t o t h e s l o t u n t i l y o u f e e l i t e n g a g e s . The memory card must be flush with the surrounding area.If the memory card has been inserted correctly the display (when folded
open) will indicate the formatted memory capacity of the card. If there are
MP3 audio files which can be read by the MP3 player stored on the card, the
display will also show the file format “MP3 audio” or the data carrier name (if
allocated).
Do not remove the card from the drive while the message Reading card... Do
not remove. is shown on the display. If the memory card is removed, data
could be lost. The memory card will then have to be re-formatted before it can
be used again.
If you insert a memory card and do not play it immediately, the ID3 tags will
load in the background. If you start playing the memory card immediately, the
ID3 tag for the current track will be displayed.
Use the MP3 function to play back a memory card which is already loaded in
the player ⇒ page 54.
Note
•The memory capacity indicated in the display is the formatted memory
capacity of the SD/MMC card you are using. It may differ from the capacity
printed onto the card.•The time required for loading the memory card depends on the number of
files on the memory card. The more files there are the longer it will take to load
the memory card.

Use of laser equipment
Laser devices are categorised according to DIN IEC 76 (CO) 6/VDE 0837 into
four safety classes. The audio devices used in your vehicle are classified as
safety class 1. Lasers used in devices that fall into this category are very weak
and well shielded, so there is no danger if used correctly.

28Instructions relating to memory cardsThe system is compatible with SD and MMC memory cards.The two MP3 memory card drives have been tested for use with many prod-
ucts currently available on the market. However, there may be some memory
cards which are not supported.
Store the memory cards in a suitable case to protect them from dirt and dust
and to avoid scratches or other kind of damage.
Caution
Only use one-piece SD/MMC memory cards. If you use SD/MMC adapter
cards (more than one piece), the memory card can detach from the adapter
(e.g. caused by jolting, etc). Parts could then get stuck in the drive.
Note
The quality of the MP3 function may vary for certain types of memory card.iPod interface*General notes
The iPod interface can be used to connect an iPod to your
navigation system and allows you to play audio files directly
over the vehicle's sound system.The iPod interface is located in your vehicle's glove box. It is compatible with
3rd generation or higher iPod
2) devices (made from about 2003 onwards),
with the exception of the iPod Shuffle. The iPod is controlled using the CD function
⇒page 48.
•The navigation system orders (first numerically and then alphabetically)
the playlists with the tracks stored in the iPod and then assigns them in the
sequence CD 1 to CD 5. For easier playing of these playlists through the
vehicle's sound system, we recommend you create five playlists (e.g. 1.... to
5....) in your iPod.•If you select CD 6, all the tracks on the iPod will be played even if they are
stored in different playlists.
Information stored on the iPod, such as artist, track, album and genre, or the
name of a playlist, does not appear on the navigation system display.Caution
Very high or very low temperatures (a common occurrence in a vehicle's inte-
rior) can cause damage to the iPod and/or impair its performance.•Please do not leave your iPod in the vehicle in case of extreme tempera-
tures.Note
Please refer to the iPod operating instructions for important information on
how to use your iPod.2)iPod is a registered trademark of Apple Computer Inc.

30•Make sure that the iPod is fixed in place with one of the adapters
supplied.Note
•Your Dealer also offers appropriate adapters for iPods that are not latest
generation.•For further information on adapter adaptation, please see the information
enclosed with the adapters supplied.Inserting the iPod into the iPod interface– Switch on the navigation system ⇒ page 4.
– With the display facing upwards and the contact towards the front, slide the iPod into the bay until you hear it engages. The
iPod will switch on automatically and the battery will be charged.
– If the navigation system does not detect the iPod after you insert it, please “reset” the iPod (refer to the iPod operating instruc-
tions).To start the iPod, press the button ⇒page 48.
The iPod is switched off automatically when you switch off the navigation
system or the ignition.
Note
•To ensure optimum sound quality, you should enable the “sound check”
setting on the iPod and disable the “EQ” (equaliser) before inserting the iPod
(please refer to the iPod operating instructions).•Slight scoring marks may occur on the iPod when used with the adapter.
Functions
The iPod is operated using the navigation system controls.– To start the iPod, press the button.The following functions are available:•Play all tracks stored on the iPod•Select directly and play up to five track lists•Switch between the different track lists•Fast forward and rewind within a track•Change tracks within a playlist•Play tracks in shuffle mode ("shuffle")•SCAN function
For further information on handling, please refer to the “MEDIA” chapter
⇒ page 48.TipsHere are some tips and points to remember when using the iPod in the
vehicle:•Track numbers appear with a maximum of two digits in the navigation
system display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a track with a three-
digit number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both displayed as track “25”. For
this reason we do not recommend allocating more than 99 tracks to each
playlist.•If you reach the end of a playlist when selecting a track directly
(forward/reverse), the count is resumed at track “1”.

music will be continued at the point where you stopped playing.
MP3 players and USB sticks which are not explicitly approved must have
“CERTIFIED USB
TM” or “CERTIFIED HIGH SPEED USB
TM” status.
Caution
•Do not connect a device other than a memory stick or MP3 player to the
USB port. It is not possible to operate hard discs or USB hubs, etc. via the USB
port.•Do not connect the MP3 player directly to the USB port. This could
damage the device.•Never remove a memory device when the USB port is selected as source
(CD). This could damage your memory device.Note
For up-to-date information on compatible MP3 players and USB sticks, please
ask a SEAT dealer or visit www.seat.es.Functions
Music files are played just like on a CD changer using the
controls on your car's sound system.To start the memory stick or MP3 player, select the “CD changer” function on
the sound system.
The following functions are available:•Play all tracks stored on the memory device (if no folders are stored on the
memory device)
•Select and play up to six main folders with music files (just like selecting
CD 1 to 6 on a CD changer)•Change between main folders with music files (just like changing the CD
on a CD changer)•Change tracks within a main folder•Fast forward and rewind within a track•SCAN function•Play tracks in random or shuffle mode
For more information on how to operate the system, please refer to the “CD”
chapter in the operating manual for your sound system.TipsHere are some tips and points to remember when playing music files in the
car:•We recommend that, instead of storing music files in the main directory of
the memory stick or MP3 player, you create separate folders e.g. for tracks
belonging to the same genre or artist. Your sound system can display and
play a maximum of six folders, however. The folders are allocated first in
numerical order and then in alphabetical order as CD 1 to CD 6. Folders that
do not contain music files are automatically ignored. You can create any
number of subfolders.•If there are no folders on your memory device, the sound system will allo-
cate all the music files it finds to CD 1.•Track numbers appear with a maximum of two digits in the sound system
display. The first digit is suppressed if you select a track with a three-digit
number, i.e. track 125 and track 25 are both displayed as track “25”. We
therefore do not recommend allocating more than 99 tracks to each folder.•We recommend you not to use the “Name CD” function on vehicles with
the BNS 5.0 navigation system, as the folders may not be named correctly.
