6Introduction to the Bluetooth system
Compatibility with mobile phones
New models of mobile phones are being released constantly by the differ-
ent brands, with different operating systems and different ways of operat-
ing. For this reason there are some mobile phones that do not perform
some of the functions correctly or are even totally incompatible. At SEAT we
would like to help you choose a mobile phone, so we have published the
results of compatibility tests performed for different mobile phones. Visit
the SEAT website or ask at your dealer.
Depending on your mobile phone model, certain functions may not be avail-
able or it may be necessary to change the configuration. Familiarise yourself
with your phone and read the instruction manual to learn the possibilities it
offers.
Even when the mobile phone appears as compatible in our list, we have no-
ticed that occasionally it is possible that the phone presents an abnormal
behaviour with the system due to software errors. In this case we recom-
mend updating your mobile phone's software. Mobile phone manufacturers
usually have updates available on their websites, which can improve the
operation of your phone.
In the event that you have various applications to make calls, such as inter-
net calling, the mobile will ask you from which application you wish to make
the call. Until confirmation is given you will not be able to make the call.
If you try to make a call and it is not processed, check your mobile phone as
it is possible that a pop-up window on your telephone is requesting you to
select the program with which to make the call. Bluetooth system components

Getting started: pairing
Getting started: pairing Creation of user profile
Each telephone must be paired with the Bluetooth system
before using it for the first time. When pairing a mobile phone for the first time, you will be asked to create a
user profile. A user profile is necessary for you to connect the mobile phone
to the SEAT system. Once the user profile has been created, your telephone
can be connected automatically or manually ⇒ page 9, Automatic pair-
ing, without having to repeat the initial pairing process each time. The
phone will be connected automatically as long as the corresponding user
profile has not been deleted using the telephone menu or the Factory set-
tings function.
A maximum of four user profiles can be created. If you try to create a fifth
profile the system will ask you to erase a profile of your choice.
The pairing process can take several minutes depending on the size of the
phone book.
The procedure for pairing your mobile phone to the SEAT system for the first
time is described below. The procedure can be started from the vehicle sys-
tem using the Telephone menu on the instrument panel or from the mobile
phone. Both methods are described below ⇒ page 7 and ⇒ page 8.Pairing the mobile phone with the system in
the instrument panel menu
In order to pair the mobile phone with the vehicle's Bluetooth by
searching for devices from the
Telephone menu in the instrument
panel, follow the steps below:
In the mobile phone
– Activate the Bluetooth function on your mobile phone.
– Activate the Bluetooth visibility on your mobile phone.
In the vehicle
– Turn on the ignition with the key.
– Select the Telephone menu on the instrument panel display.
– Select the function Search for Telephones to search for Bluetooth
devices within the range of the system. At the end of the search,
a list of the devices found is displayed.
Pairing the mobile phone
– Select the desired telephone from the list on the instrument
panel display.
– Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
– When requested, follow the steps to confirm/enter the PIN. De-
pending on the technology supported by your mobile, different
actions will be requested. 

8Getting started: pairing
Upon attempting to connect for the first time, the system will ask
you to confirm that the password shown on the instrument panel
display is the same as that displayed on the mobile. Confirmation
must be made both on the mobile device and on the instrument
panel using controls on the steering wheel. This password will be a
6 digit code generated randomly each time according to SSP tech-
nology. The system is capable of supporting SSP (Secure Simple
Pairing) in order for the pairing to be performed in a completely se-
cure manner. SSP pairing can only be carried out if your device
supports the SSP function.
–Confirm the connection instructions in the mobile phone.
– Confirm on the instrument panel the message saying that a new
profile has been created.
– The contacts in your mobile phone book are copied to the vehi-
cle system.
– The pairing is complete. 
Pairing with the mobile phone
Follow the instructions below to pair the mobile phone with the
Bluetooth system:
– Activate the Bluetooth on the mobile phone.
– Turn on the ignition with the key. The vehicle system will be visi-
ble to the mobile phone via Bluetooth for 3 minutes. If the 3 mi- nutes have passed you can also switch on Bluetooth visibility
again for 3 minutes by pressing the button “PTT”.
– Search for Bluetooth devices using the mobile phone. Refer to
the mobile phone manual for instructions.
– A list of devices found is displayed on the mobile phone. From
this list, select the device SEAT_BT. Upon attempting to connect
for the first time, the system will ask you to confirm that the
password shown on the instrument panel display is the same
as that displayed on the mobile. Confirmation must be made
both on the mobile device and on the instrument panel using
controls on the steering wheel. This password will be a 6 digit code generated randomly each time according to SSP technolo-
gy. The system is capable of supporting SSP (Secure Simple
Pairing) in order for the pairing to be performed in a completely
secure manner. SSP pairing can only be carried out if your de-
vice supports the SSP function.
– Next, accept the connection instructions on the mobile phone.
– When asked to do so, enter the PIN number 1234 and confirm.
– The contacts from the mobile phone's memory and/or SIM
card 1)
are transferred to the vehicle system. Some mobile
phones may display a message asking for confirmation of ac-
cess to the phone book or other options. These messages
should be accepted in order for the hands-free system to access
the information contained on the mobile and in order to carry
out the complete functions of the system.
– The pairing is complete. 

phone and on the instrument panel display. The system
permits two Bluetooth devices to be connected and used
simultaneously, to perform different functions. In this
case, one device will be used as hands-free (connected to
the HFP profile) and the other as a media player (connec-
ted to the A2DP profile).
Add user Select Add user so that the device starts to search for Blue-
tooth compatible mobile phones. If you try to connect an
