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.

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

⇒ 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

Adjusting sound settings
60DSP ("Digital Signal Processing")GALA are the German initials for the speed-dependent
volume adjustment function.– Press the control button for the Sound function from an audio or
SETUP menu or
– Select DSP ⇒ page 59, fig. 74 .
– Select GALA ⇒ fig. 76.
– Select on of the five levels ⇒ fig. 76 or
– Select off . The function will be switched off.The GALA function boosts the volume level accordingly as the vehicle's speed
increases to drown out background noise.
If you select level 1, the volume will only be boosted slightly as speed
increases. If you select level 5, the volume will be boosted more strongly as
speed increases.
Dynamic noise compensation*Dynamic noise compensation automatically adjusts the music volume so that
the music is not drowned out by background noise. The volume will seem to
maintain its normal decibel strength.
The dynamic noise compensation function responds to both continuous and
transient background noise.
How does the dynamic noise compensation work?
A microphone in the interior registers the music volume and the volume of
background noise. The background noise is then digitally analysed and proc-
essed by the system. At the same time, the sound system boosts the play-
back volume accordingly in the affected frequency range so that the music
can still be heard clearly.
Note
Any malfunction of the AudioPilot system is indicated by a triple warning
gong which sounds when the navigation system is switched on. If this should
happen, please have the AudioPilot system checked by a qualified
workshop.

Mobile phone system*
86Telephone speech control systemIntroduction
You can use speech commands to operate various functions
of the telephone.Functions
When used in combination with the hands-free system, you can make calls
without touching your mobile phone. The speech control system recognises
commands and digits spoken by different people.
The speech control system allows you to do the following:•Create an acoustic phone book for the speech control system ⇒page 86•Enter and dial a telephone number ⇒page 91
Traffic reports are not announced during a running dialogue. The dialogue
will be ended immediately when an incoming phone call is received. To
answer the call, press the left thumbwheel on the multi-function steering
wheel* or the talk button on the mobile phone adapter.
Unclear speech commands
The system acknowledges your commands with an acoustic signal. If the
system does not recognise a speech command, it will answer with Pardon?
and request you to repeat the command. After a third failed attempt the
system will answer with Cancel and the dialogue will be ended.
How to help the system understand you•Speak clearly in a normal volume. Speak louder if you are driving fast.•Speak in a normal tone without long pauses.•Avoid speaking when the system is saying a cue.•Close doors, windows and sun roof* to reduce background noise. Make
sure that passengers are not talking when you say a command.
•Keep the air outlets of the air distribution system pointed away from the
microphone, which is fitted in the vicinity of the front interior lights.•The system should only be operated by the driver, since the hands-free
microphone is directed towards the driver.WARNING
•Please direct your full attention to the road at all times! As the driver,
you bear the responsibility for road safety. Therefore, you should only use
the functions in a manner that allows you to maintain control of the vehicle
in all situations.•The speech control system must not be used in cases of emergency,
since the voice changes in stressful situations. This could result in a failed
or delayed telephone connection. Always dial emergency numbers
manually.
Speech control system phone book
Name tags are stored in the phone book for the speech
control system.General notes
The phone book for the speech control system has 50 memory positions. You
can use it independently of the mobile phone. The name tags are stored in
the phone book for the speech control system.
Functions
The phone book for the speech control system gives you various options:•Dialling phone numbers stored previously ⇒page 93•Recording a name in the speech control phone book for a phone book

WARNING
•Today's driving conditions require the full attention of drivers. Please
see ⇒page 6, “Notes on road safety”.•Pay attention to traffic rules when driving. The route calculated by the
navigation system is a recommendation of how best to reach a destination.

take precedence. Pay attention to traffic lights, no-stopping signs, lane
change restrictions, one-way streets, etc.Caution
The volume of the sound system should be set at a level that enables you to
hear acoustic signals from outside, such as police and fire brigade sirens.
Failure to do so may cause an accident.
IntroductionIntroductionThe SEAT navigation system can help you reach your destination without
spending a lot of time studying maps.

display ⇒fig. 114 and instrument panel display ⇒page 99, fig. 116
regarding vehicle position, turn-off information (direction and distance to
turn-off), remaining distance to destination and estimated arrival time. Addi-
tionally, you receive spoken navigation information ⇒ page 100.
