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.
Note
Separate the radio card and keep it in a safe place, but never inside the ve-
hicle. If the card bearing the radio code is lost, go to a SEAT dealership,
where you will be given help.
Note
● The anti-theft coding does not need re-entering if the battery has only
been disconnected. In this case, switch the ignition on before switching on
the sound system.
● The card bearing the radio code is available according to the model of
the vehicle. 

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:
Observe the basic safety notes .⇒ page 4.
Familiarise yourself with the unit overview.⇒ page 6.
Use suitable data media for Media mode.⇒ page 21.
Safety notes
WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating the
infotainment system while driving can distract your attention from the
traffic.
● Always drive carefully and 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 damage your hearing. This also ap-
plies if you are exposed to high volumes for short periods only.
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 ⇒ page 8.
WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data medium while the vehicle is in
motion can distract you from the road and lead to accidents.
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 though the interior and cause injuries during a sud-
den driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.
● You should never position or attach an external device on a door, on
the windscreen or above or near to the areas marked “AIRBAG” on the
steering wheel, the dash panel and the seat backrests, or between these
areas and the vehicle occupants. External devices can cause serious in-
jury in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate. 

Introduction
WARNING
An armrest may obstruct the driver's arm movements, which could cause
accidents and severe injuries.
● Always keep the armrest closed while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Opening the housing on a CD player can lead to injuries from invisible la-
ser radiation.
● CD players should only be repaired by a qualified workshop.
CAUTION
● When inserting and removing the CD, always hold it at right angles to
the front of the unit without scratching or tilting it.
● Inserting a second CD while a CD is already inserted or being ejected
may damage the CD player. Always wait until the data medium is completely
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 clean standard 12 cm CDs should be used.
– Do not affix stickers or other items to the data medium. Stickers may
peel off and damage the drive.
– Do not insert 8 cm single CDs or irregularly shaped CDs or DVDs.
– Do not insert DVD Plus discs, dual discs or flip discs, as these are
thicker than normal CDs.
CAUTION
The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged if the volume is too high or the
sound is distorted. 

General information on operating the unit
Introduction
Depending on the vehicle you can also change the track or station and ad-
just the volume using the multifunction steering wheel ⇒ Booklet Instruc-
tion manual, chapter Overview of the vehicle.
Additional information and warnings:
● Safety notes  ⇒ page 4
● Unit overview ⇒ page 6
Additional display information
Depending on the vehicle specification, changes to air conditioning set-
tings or information on factory-fitted driver assistance systems may be dis-
played temporarily on the screen. These displays disappear automatically
when they are no longer required.
Note
● Only a small amount of pressure is needed to operate the unit.
● Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected
when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.
● Using a mobile phone in the vehicle may cause noise from the vehicle
speakers.
● In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the
volume of the current audio source is automatically lowered when reverse
gear is engaged. Rotary/push knobs, unit and function buttons
Overview

Rotary/push knobs.
● Labelled unit buttons (hard keys).
● Function buttons (soft keys).
Rotary/push knobs
The left-hand rotary/push knob ⇒ Fig. 1 1
is referred to as the volume con-
trol  or the on/off switch.
The right-hand rotary/push knob ⇒ Fig. 1 8
is referred to as the setting
knob.
Unit buttons and function buttons
The system labelled buttons are called “unit buttons”, e.g. SOUND
button
⇒  Fig. 1.
There are six unlabelled unit buttons below the screen ⇒ Fig. 1 7
. These
are known as “function buttons” because their function depends on the ac-
tive function mode.
The current function of a function button is displayed just above the button
in the bottom line of the screen (e.g. ⇒ Fig. 6). 
Switching on and off
● To switch the unit on or off manually, briefly press the rotary/push knob
 ⇒ Fig. 1 rotary/push knob.
When the unit is 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 preselected “switch-on volume” (ON-VOL or START-VOL
⇒  page 52). 

Introduction
Depending on the unit and country, 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 below the minimum onboard power supply voltage, an audible
warning sounds and LOW BATTERY appears. You should switch the unit off.
If the battery voltage level continues to fall, LOW BATTERY and RADIO OFF are
briefly shown on the display. The unit will switch off automatically. 
