Traffic incidents displayed on the map
Traffic congestion reported via TMC that is on the route is shown on the map
by a coloured symbol. Traffic congestion that is not on the route is shown on
the map by a grey symbol. The positioning of the TMC symbol indicates the
start and the direction of the traffic congestion if both are clearly defined in
the TMC traffic message.
Route sections with traffic congestion that are on the route are coloured red.
Route sections with traffic congestion that are not on the route are coloured
grey. If route guidance is not active, all traffic congestion is coloured grey.
Dynamic route guidance
If the  Dynamic route
function button is activated and a diversion to avoid
traffic congestion on the route is likely to save time, the navigation system
automatically calculates an alternative route.
An announcement is given when the route is recalculated. The same an-
nouncement is given if traffic congestion that was present when the route
was originally calculated is now no longer reported.
Note
A diversion of the route based on TMC traffic reports may not always save
time, if, for instance, there is also heavy traffic on the alternative route.
Note
If there is traffic congestion on a route section further ahead, it is possible
to exclude the section manually if the TMC traffic report has not yet been
received.
Note
The quality of traffic messages depends on the station broadcasting the
traffic reports. This station is responsible for the content of the traffic re-
ports. Displaying TMC traffic reports (TRAFFIC)

Route guidance in demo mode
If demo mode is activated in the Navigation setup menu ⇒ page 74, an ad-
ditional pop-up window opens when you start route guidance.
● Pressing the Demo
function button starts a “virtual route guidance” to
the destination you have entered.
● If you press the Normal
function button, a “real route guidance” starts.
The sequence of events and the operations in virtual route guidance are
similar to those in real route guidance.
Virtual route guidance is repeated when you reach the fictitious destination
and always starts again from the starting point if it is interrupted.
If the starting point for demo mode has been defined manually in the Navi-
gation setup menu, virtual route guidance will start from this position.
If the vehicle is moved and the unit can determine its current location by
GPS, any manually entered starting point will be overwritten with the current
vehicle location ⇒ page 74.
When real route guidance is started following virtual route guidance in
demo mode, the unit first has to reorient itself. This may take some time,
depending on the number of satellites the unit can currently receive. Mov-
ing the vehicle may speed up the reorientation process. 

74Navigation
Ending demonstration mode
As a general rule, the Demo mode should be switched off after use, other-
wise you will always have to select between virtual navigation or normal
navigation before starting navigation to a destination.
Normally, the demonstration mode automatically ends on completion of the
route guidance programme or when a new navigation destination (not de-
tour) is entered. When the vehicle starts to move, or when the unit is switch-
ed off, the demonstration mode ends.
If necessary, switch off the demonstration mode in the navigation setup
menu.
● Press the SETUP

Introduction
Introduction
The telephone functions described below may be controlled using the radio
and navigation system, and by voice control, provided that there is a mobile
phone switched on and with the BT function on. In addition, the mobile
must be connected and paired via Bluetooth to the radio and navigation
system.
For the connection between the mobile phone and the radio and navigation
system, the mobile phone must have Bluetooth®
and it must be activated.
If no mobile phone is connected to the radio and navigation system, tele-
phone control from the navigator and voice control will not be available.
● Pair and connect the mobile phone to the radio and navigation system
⇒ page 79.
When the mobile phone has been paired with the navigation system, the
phone can be controlled via the navigation system and the multifunction
controls on the steering wheel using the vehicle instrument panel. Func-
tions available include making calls in hands-free mode, access to the mo-
bile phone book, access to the list of calls received, missed and recently di-
alled, and control of these functions using the voice recognition system.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the ve-
hicle; the driver will not have to remove their hands from the steering wheel
nor will be distracted from traffic.
Please observe instructions concerning the use of mobile phones in vehi-
cles without an external aerial ⇒ page 78.
WARNING
Telephone calls and the use of the mobile phone pre-installation while
driving may distract the driver from the road and result in accident.
● You should always drive with due care and attention.
● Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times, e.g. emergency service sirens.
● Your call may be cut off or you may be unable to make calls if you are
in an area with no mobile phone network coverage, an area where the
network is very weak or, in some cases, in a tunnel, garage or underpass.
This also means that no emergency calls can be made.
WARNING
If your mobile phone is loose and is not securely fastened, it could be
thrown around the vehicle interior in the event of sudden braking, sharp
movements or accident and cause injury to passengers.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always secure the mobile phone prop-
erly outside the airbag deployment zone.
WARNING
Mobile phones may affect the operation of pacemakers. Always maintain
a suitable distance between the phone and the pacemaker.
● Maintain a gap of roughly 20 centimetres between the aerials of the
mobile phone and the pacemaker, as mobile phones may affect the func-
tioning of pacemakers. 

77
Telephone control (Phone)
WARNING (Continued)
● Do not keep mobile phones in breast pockets directly above pacemak-
ers.
● Switch off the mobile phone immediately if you suspect there may be
interference.
WARNING
An unfolded armrest may restrict the driver's movements causing a seri-
ous accident.
● While driving, the armrest should always be closed.
CAUTION
High speeds, poor weather or road conditions and the quality of reception
can all affect the quality of a telephone conversation in the vehicle.
Note
● The instructions shown on the screen for each telephone menu will de-
pend on the mobile phone used. There may be variations.
● Please observe instructions for the use of the mobile phone and phone
accessories, together with instructions referring to the use of headphones.
● You may experience problems with reception or your call may be cut off
in areas without network coverage.
● Most electronic devices are shielded against high-frequency signals.
However, some electronic devices may not be shielded against radio fre-
quency signals from the telephone. This could lead to malfunction.
● The voice control system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, German, English, French, Italian, Portuguese, Czech, Russian and
Dutch. For other languages, the predefined language for the voice control
system will depend on the country in which the vehicle is sold. Please ask
the Technical Service to change the predefined language if required. Areas with special regulations
Switch off the mobile phone and the pre-installation in areas with a high
risk of explosion. These areas are usually marked, although not always
clearly
⇒ 
in Introduction on page 76. For example:
● In the vicinity of chemical pipelines and tanks
● Below deck on board ships and ferries.
● In the proximity of vehicles that run on liquid gas (such as propane or
butane)
● Areas with chemical products or particles in the air, such as flour, dust
or metal powder.
● Any area in which the car engine must be switched off.
WARNING
Switch off your mobile phone in areas with a high risk of explosion! The
mobile phone can be automatically reconnected to the mobile phone net-
work if the Bluetooth connection is switched off for the pre-installation.
CAUTION
Always switch off your mobile phone and the pre-installation in restricted
areas or areas where the use of mobile phones is not permitted. Radiation
from a mobile phone which is switched on may interfere with sensitive tech-
nical or medical equipment, resulting in malfunction or damage to this
equipment. 
Compatibility with mobile phones
Connection between a mobile phone and the navigation system will depend
on the mobile phone paired with the navigator. 

78Telephone control (Phone)
New models of mobile phone are continually being launched on the market.
These are developed by different manufacturers, use different operating
systems and operate in different ways. Therefore, some mobile phones are
unable to correctly perform the functions described, or are totally incompati-
ble with the radio and navigation system.
Depending on the model of phone, some functions may not be available or
may require the phone configuration to be changed. Familiarise yourself
with your mobile phone and with the radio and navigation unit. Please read
the mobile phone manual carefully to determine the available options.
To help you when choosing a mobile phone, SEAT offers the results of the
compatibility tests on different mobile phones. Visit the SEAT web page or
ask your dealership for further information.
Even when a mobile phone is shown as compatible in the SEAT lists, it may
not work correctly when paired with the radio and navigation system, due to
the SW version of the mobile phone. In this case, we recommend you up-
date the telephone software. Mobile phone manufacturers usually make up-
dates available on Internet for their customers in order to improve the work-
ing of the phone. 
Using a mobile phone in the vehicle
Mobile phones send and receive radio waves, both during a call and while
on stand-by. Some scientific studies claim that radio waves above certain
values may be harmful to the human body. The authorities and international
committees have defined limits and directives to ensure that electromag-
netic radiation from mobile telephones remains within limits which are not
harmful to human health. Nevertheless, there is no conclusive scientific evi-
dence that wireless telephones are totally safe.
Therefore, some experts recommend moderate use of mobile phones until
the results of further research currently underway are published. If a mobile phone is used inside the vehicle without first connecting it to the
vehicle telephone exterior aerial, electromagnetic radiation may be greater
than if the mobile phone had been connected to a built-in or exterior aerial.
If the vehicle has a suitable hands-free device, it complies with legislation
in many countries where the use of mobile phones within the vehicle is only
permitted using a hands-free device.
The factory-mounted hands-free system has been designed for use with
conventional mobile phones and mobile phones with Bluetooth technology.
Mobile phones must be mounted on a suitable support. This support must
be securely inserted into the base plate. This ensures that the mobile phone
is securely attached to the instrument panel, it is always within reach of the
driver and is connected to the vehicle exterior aerial.
Connecting the mobile phone to a built-in or exterior aerial, helps to reduce
the levels of electromagnetic radiation affecting the human body. The quali-
ty of the connection is also improved.
If the mobile phone is used inside the vehicle without the hands-free sys-
tem, the phone will not be securely attached to the instrument panel, nor
will it be connected to the vehicle exterior aerial. In addition, the mobile
phone will not charge through the support. On-going calls may also be in-
terrupted and the quality of the connection affected.
Only use your mobile phone inside the vehicle if it is connected to a hands-
free system with an exterior aerial.
WARNING
A loose or incorrectly attached phone could be thrown around the vehicle
interior in the event of sudden braking, sharp movements or accident and
cause injury to passengers.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always secure the mobile phone prop-
erly outside the airbag deployment zone. 

79
Telephone control (Phone)
WARNING
If you use mobile phones or two-way radios in the car without connection
to an external aerial, electromagnetic radiation in the vehicle could ex-
ceed limit values. This also may occur to external aerials that have not
been correctly installed.
● Maintain a distance of at least 20 centimetres between mobile phone
aerials and pacemakers, as mobile phones may have a negative effect on
pacemakers.
● Mobile phones must not be carried in shirt pockets, directly over the
pacemaker.
● If you suspect interference, switch off the telephone immediately.

Link and connect the mobile phone to a radio and
navigation system
Fig. 77 Setup: Bluetooth
settings.
Fig. 78 Bluetooth set-
tings: BT equipment.
To use a mobile phone via the radio and navigation system, it is necessary
to establish a connection between both units once.
The mobile phone can be connected to the radio and navigation system in
two ways:
● active connection
● passive connection
With the active connection, the search for the unit is started using the radio
and navigation system. With the passive connection, the search for the unit
is started using the mobile phone. Sometimes the search process is unable
to find the device it wishes to pair to the radio and navigation system. It
may be necessary to repeat the search several times.
The following settings in the mobile phone and in the radio and navigation
system are required for both types of connection:
● The Bluetooth ®
function must be on or visible in the mobile phone and
in the radio and navigation system.
● The mobile phone keypad must be unlocked.
● The mobile phone notification and keypad tones should be switched off. 
