40Playing order of files and foldersThe equipment plays the MP3s stored on a data media in the following order.
The illustration shows a typical MP3 CD that contains tracks, folders and
subfolders.
•Playback commences with the first track of the “root directory” of the CD.
For example, there are two titles and in the root directory.•Once the tracks from the root directory have been played, the tracks in the
folders are next, following the same order as they are found in the data
media. For example, there are two main folders in the root directory: F1 and
F2 . The folder F1 is found in the first place within the root directory, which
means that the two files in it ( and ) will be played immediately after
those in the root directory.•Once the tracks from the first folder have been played, the tracks in the
subfolders are next, following the same order as they are found in the data
media. For example, folder F1 has two subfolders: F1.1 and F1.2, which
contains a subfolder F1.1.1 within F1.1. The unit first plays all the tracks in
subfolder F1.1 , then switches to subfolder F1.1.1 and plays the tracks in
that subfolder Once all of the tracks from subfolder F1.1.1 have been
played, subfolder F1.2 is next, and the tracks in . If there are more
subfolders within F1.2, the unit changes to those folders as described above.•Once all of the files in the first folder of the root directory (and the
subfolders) have been played, the files in the next folder are played, in the
order described above. For example, tracks and in folder F2.•The track that is currently playing is highlighted in the radio-navigation
system's track list page 36, fig. 27 . The name of the folder currently being
played appears in the bottom line of the screen. If the track is in the root direc-
tory of the data media, only the name of the data media is shown.Note
•The unit also supports playlists and treats them like folders when playing
files.•Refer to the notes on requirements for data media, folders and playlists

MEDIA-IN multi-media interface (MDI)Description
The MEDIA-IN multi-media interface provides users with a
USB connector and an AUX connector. Depending on the
vehicle, this interface is located in the central console or
underneath the central armrest between the front seats.
Depending on the vehicle's unit, the followin g is possible from the radio-navi-
gation unit through the MEDIA-IN interface:•Play and operate audio files from a mass storage medium or MP3 player
with USB connection. The MEDIA-IN multi-media interface supplies the usual
USB voltage of 5 volts.•Play and operate audio files from an iPod. In this case, the iPod must be
connected using the cable or special SEAT adapter support. In the case of the
León, the "AUX2 Input" option must be enabled in the Media Settings menu
(MEDIA →SETUP) for audio playback of an iPod.•Play audio files from an external medium connected to the AUX socket.
External audio sources connected to the AUX socket of the MEDIA-IN interface
can be played through the radio-navigation system but cannot be operated.
Consult the specific manufacturer's instruction manual for operating the
external audio source. The external audio source will continue to play until it
is switched off, despite another source starting to play in the radio-navigation
system. In the case of the León, the "AUX2 Input" option must be selected in
the Media Settings menu (MEDIA →SETUP) for audio playback of a device
connected to the AUX socket.

42•If the vehicle is equipped with a Rear Seat Entertainment system, audio
from a portable multi-media device connected to the AUX RSE socket can be
played through the radio-navigation system. To play audio from a device
connected to this socket, enable the "AUX2 Input" option in the Media
Settings menu (MEDIA →SETUP) . Make sure no other multi-media device or
audio cable is connected to the MEDIA-IN interface, as these take playback
priority over the AUX2 input. Refer to the Rear Seat Entertainment system
manual for further information.WARNING
The risk of injury during a sudden braking manoeuvre or in an accident is
increased if the glove compartment cover or armrest is open.•Always keep the glove compartment and armrest closed while the
vehicle is in motion.WARNING
Loose objects inside the vehicle may obstruct the driver and lead to serious
injuries.•The external audio data medium must never be placed on the instru-
ment panel. A sudden driving manoeuvre could cause the device to be flung
through the vehicle interior and injure occupants.•The external audio source must never be placed close to an airbag. If an
airbag is triggered, the device could be flung towards the compartment and
injure the vehicle passengers.•Occupants must not have the data medium in their hands or placed on
their legs while the vehicle is in motion. A sudden driving manoeuvre could
cause the device to be flung through the vehicle interior and injure occu-
pants.•The wires connecting the external data medium must be arranged so
they do not obstruct you when driving.
Note
•Only audio files readable through the MEDIA-IN socket will be displayed
and played. Where a medium connected contains damaged files or files in
unreadable formats, these will not be displayed.•USB connection takes priority over the MEDIA-IN interface AUX socket.
Either of these, or an iPod adapter where applicable, takes priority over the
AUX RSE socket. Therefore, to play audio from a medium connected to the
AUX RSE socket, make sure there is no device or cable connected to the
MEDIA-IN interface.•You can disconnect the connection with the external medium whenever
required without losing data, independent to the indications of the external
data media.External data media requirements •The unit only supports external data media and USB mass storage devices
that comply with the USB 2.0 specifications.•External data media must use a FAT file system, either FAT16 (< 2 GB) or
FAT32 (> 2 GB) (FAT: File Allocation Table)•In the case of MTP players (Media Transfer Protocol), which have the
“PlaysForSure” or “ReadyForVista” logo, factors such as the battery status
and the quantity of data may affect the way these devices respond to commu-
nication via the MEDIA-IN multi-media interface. It may take several minutes
before the MTP player is ready to play.•When playing files from large hard drive memories with many files and
complex file structures (a large number of folders and subfolders, non-play-
able files, etc.), there may be delays in the reading of audio files. The
connected device may also affect the unit's response time.•The folder structure on the external data medium should not have more
than eight folder levels. A folder should not contain more than 1000 items.

•USB extension cables and USB hubs may not be used to connect up an
external data medium.•If a data medium is divided into several partitions, only the first partition
with compatible audio files will be used.•The unit does not support memory card adapters and these may lead to
malfunctions.•Malfunctions may occur if the software on an external MP3 player has
been updated with a manufacturer's firmware guarantee.•It may be necessary to switch on the eternal data medium or select the
appropriate data mode.•Please refer to the res pective manufacturer's man ual for instructions on
the operation of the external data medium.Supported file formats The operation and performance of the playable file formats on the unit are the
same as for MP3 compressed audio files and are therefore not described
separately here.•The radio-navigation system can play and control audio files of the
formats MP3, WMA, OGG Vorbis and AAC from an external data medium.•The unit supports playlists in the formats PLS, B4S, ASX and WPL.•The unit cannot play WMA audio files (Windows Media Audio) that are
copyright protected by the DRM process (Digital Rights Management).•In general, no copyright protected files can be played (e.g. M4P).•It is not possible to play files in 3GP format or “WMA lossless” files.
Note that there are no MP3 files stored in a playlist. A playlist only determines
a certain playing order. If a playlist cannot be played, check that the “relative
paths” are correct, i.e. that the MP3 files on the data medium are actually
stored at the locations referenced by the playlist.

playersSafety precautions for equipment fitted with lasers Laser devices are classified by DIN IEC 76 (CO) 6/ VDE 0837 into safety
classes 1 to 4.
SEAT CD players conform to class 1.
The lasers used in class 1 units are low energy lasers, or are shielded in such
a manner that they present no danger when used correctly.
WARNING
•The CD player is a class 1 laser product. If it is opened, there is a risk of
injury from invisible laser radiation.•The CD player contains no parts which you can service or repair by your-
self. You should, therefore, contact a qualified workshop if there is a
mechanical defect or if the CD player has to be repaired.
Tips on CD mode and handling data media
With the goal of guaranteeing optimum playback quality, try
not to use damaged, scratched or dirty data media.Cleaning a CD
Hold the CD at the sides. Avoid leaving fingerprints on the CD.
Use a soft, lint–free cloth to clean it. Wipe the disk in a straight line from the
centre outwards. Stubborn soiling can be removed with an ordinary CD
cleaning fluid or isopropyl alcohol.
Caution
•Never use fluids such as petrol, paint thinner or record cleaner, as these
can damage the surface of the CD!•Use standard 12 cm CDs only. Special shape discs (sometimes called
“Shape CD”) or 8 cm “singles” cannot be played and they will damage the
player.•DVD-Plus, Dual Discs and Flip Discs are thicker than standard CDs and
must not be inserted into the unit.•Insert the CD into the CD slot to the point where it is pulled in automati-
cally.

NAV (navigation system) function selection button47
NAV (navigation system) function selection button IntroductionGeneral points
Using sensors, the data received from the satellites and traffic
information, the best route is planned and the driver is
guided to the destination.How the system works
The current vehicle position is determined by means of the GPS satellite
system (Global Positioning System). Sensors in the vehicle measure
distances that have been driven. The values are compared to the detailed
map information contained in your navigation data and are corrected as
necessary with the support of TMC traffic reports ( TMC = Traffic Message
C hannel) page 80. With all of this data, an optimal route to the destination
is determined.
The audible navigation indications, the maps that appear on the navigation
equipment's screen and the arrows on the instrument panel screen will help
you arrive at your destination in the easiest, safest way- as if you were accom-
panied by an invisible guide.
This enables you to drive to an address in an unfamiliar town, find the nearest
petrol station or be guided to a hotel, for example.
Operation
All of the unit's audio sources are fully available while you are navigating to a
destination
14). Navigation announcements are made at the preset volume
and interrupt the active audio mode. The volume of the current audio source will then be lowered so that you do not "miss" the navigation announcement
page 12, “Changing volume settings”.
Pressing the function selection button always switches straight to the
Navigation main menu. To display the vehicle position in the map view, press
the function button.
When entering an address (town, street), only those letters or symbols which
make up a logical entry will be presented. A list of possible names will be
shown. Do not forget to enter the blank space in names made up of more than
one word, such as “St. Helens”.
The route will be recalculated if you leave or disregard the route that was orig-
inally calculated. This process takes only a few seconds.
The last announcement made can be repeated during route guidance by
pressing the setting knob page 3, fig. 1 . To also display the destina-
tion press the button. During a navigation indication, you can change the
volume by turning the volume knob .
Safety information on use of the navigation systemThe navigation system determines the position of the vehicle and its
heading, plus the distance and route to a selected destination. It takes into
account the traffic rules and regulations stored on the navigation data
medium . The system guides you using audible indications. Direction
arrows are also shown on the screen.
The destination is entered when the vehicle is stationary. The route guidance
function is designed for cars and is thus unsuitable for larger commercial
vehicles.
14)Exception: when the internal CD drive is being used to navigate directly from a navi-
gation CD.
