Important Information
Important Information Important Information. Traffic safety
Travelling on today's roads requires the driver's full attention at all times.
Only operate the radio system and its various functions when the traffic sit-
uation really permits this.
WARNING
● Before starting the trip, you should familiarise yourself with the dif-
ferent radio functions.
● 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.
● Radio settings should be made when the car is stopped or by a pas-
senger.

The card bearing the radio code is available according to the model of the
vehicle. Separate the radio card and keep it in a safe place, but never inside
the vehicle. If the card bearing the radio code is lost, go to a SEAT dealer-
ship, where you will be given help. 

Introduction
Before using the unit for the first time
Before using the unit for the first time, carry out the following steps. This
will enable you to use the unit safely and make full use of the functions it
provides:

 ⇒ page 4.
 Familiarise yourself with the unit overview
⇒ page 6.

Safety notes
WARNING
Any distraction may lead to an accident, with the risk of injury. Operating
the radio system could distract you from the traffic.
● Always stay alert and drive responsibly.
● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
● Setting the volume too high may cause damage to your hearing. This
also applies if the device is set to high volumes for a short period.
WARNING
The volume level may suddenly change when you switch audio source or
connect a new audio source.
● Reduce the base volume before switching audio source or connecting
a new audio source.
WARNING
The connection, introduction or removal of data media whilst driving may
distract you from the traffic, causing an accident.
WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may obstruct the driver.
● Arrange the connecting leads so that they do not obstruct the driver.
WARNING
External devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly se-
cured could be flung through the interior of the vehicle during a sudden
driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident and cause
damage or injury.
● Never fit external units on the doors, windscreen, on or near the area
marked with the word “AIRBAG” on the steering wheel, the dash panel,
seat backrests or between these areas and the vehicle occupants. In the
case of an accident, external units can cause serious injury, particularly
when the airbags inflate.
WARNING
Opening the housing on a CD player can lead to injuries from invisible la-
ser radiation.
● Only have CD players repaired by a Specialised workshop. 

the front of the unit without scratching or tilting it.
● Inserting a second CD while a CD is already inserted or being ejected

fully ejected!
CAUTION
The CD drive can be damaged by any foreign objects attached to a data me-
dium, and by irregularly shaped data media.
● Only use standard 12 cm CDs!
– Do not stick stickers or other items to the data medium. Stickers may
peel off and damage the drive.
– Do not use printable data media. Covers and stickers may peel off
and damage the drive.

thicker than normal CDs.
