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 6.
● Familiarise yourself with the unit overview ⇒ page 8.
● Restore factory settings (standard settings) in the system settings menu
⇒  page 99.
● Use suitable data media for Media mode ⇒ page 29. 
Safety instructions
WARNING
Your attention may be distracted from the traffic if you use the radio and
navigation system while driving, resulting 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).
● If the volume is too high, you could damage your hearing. Even if the
volume is too loud for a short period only.
WARNING
The recommendations and traffic signs shown by the navigation system
may differ from the true traffic conditions.
● Traffic signs and traffic regulations have priority over the recommen-
dations and instructions given by the navigation system.
● Adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, road, traffic and
weather conditions.
WARNING
External devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly se-
cured could be flung though the interior during a sudden driving or brak-
ing manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.
● While the vehicle is in motion, always fasten or store external devices
securely outside the airbag deployment zones.
● Arrange the connecting leads of external devices so that they do not
obstruct the driver.
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 sources or connect-
ing a new audio source ⇒ page 11. 

Introduction
WARNING
Opening a CD player's housing may lead to injuries from invisible laser
radiation.
● Only have CD players repaired by a specialised workshop.
CAUTION
The memory card slot's locking mechanism can be damaged by incorrect in-
sertion of a memory card or by inserting a non-compatible memory card!
● When inserting a card, make sure it is correctly positioned ⇒ page 33.
● Applying force may destroy the memory card slot's locking mechanism.
● Only use suitable memory cards ⇒ page 29.
CAUTION
● When inserting and removing CDs, always hold them at right angles to
the front of the unit. Inserting or removing them at an angle to the drive may
lead to scratching ⇒  page 32.
● Inserting a second CD while a CD is already inserted or being ejected
may damage the CD player. Always wait until the CD has been ejected!
CAUTION
Any foreign objects attached to a data medium and non-round data media
can damage the CD player.
● Only clean 12-cm standard CDs should be used!
– Do not stick stickers or other items to the CDs. Stickers may peel off
and damage the drive.
– Do not insert 8-cm single CDs or non-round CDs (shaped CDs).
– Do not insert DVD-Plus discs, Dual Discs or Flip Discs, as these are
thicker than normal CDs. Versions available

General operating information
Introduction
If system settings are modified, some aspects of the unit's operation may
differ from the descriptions given in this manual. For this reason, SEAT rec-
ommends that you reset the unit to its factory settings the first time you use
it ⇒ page 100.
Additional Information:
● Safety notes  ⇒ page 6
● Unit overview ⇒ page 8
● Multifunction steering wheel, to change track or station ⇒ Booklet Own-
er's Manual, chapter Vehicle overview
Note
Lightly pressing the buttons or briefly pressing the touchscreen is sufficient
to operate the unit.
Note
Never press a button down for longer than 10 minutes. Otherwise the sys-
tem will interpret this as a malfunction ( button jammed).
Note
Due to country-specific legislation, certain functions cannot be selected on
the screen when the vehicle is travelling above a certain speed.
Note
Using a mobile telephone in the vehicle may cause noise from the vehicle
speakers.
Note
In some vehicles equipped with a parking distance warning system, the vol-
ume of the current audio source is automatically lowered when reverse gear
is engaged. If talking on the telephone through the radio and navigation
system, the volume of the conversation is also lowered automatically when
reverse gear is engaged.
Note
Restrictions on the use of devices using Bluetooth technology may be appli-
cable in some countries. Please ask your local authority for further informa-
tion. 
Switching on and off
With the ignition on, press the rotary/push knob 
⇒ Fig. 1 1 briefly to
manually switch the unit on or off.
When the unit is switched on, the system starts, and the last selected audio
source is played at the last selected volume, provided this is not greater
than the “start-up volume”.
When the key is removed from the ignition, the radio and navigation unit
automatically switches off. By pressing the rotary/push knob 
⇒ Fig. 1 1
,
the radio switches on and switches off automatically after approx. 30 mi-
nutes (switch-off delay), or manually if the rotary/push knob is pressed
again.
Anti-theft code
The anti-theft code is stored in the vehicle once it has been entered (con-
venience radio code). The anti-theft coding lock then only needs to be re-
leased manually if the unit is installed in another vehicle. In such a case, a
keypad field and a prompt to enter the code will appear when the unit is
switched on. In this case, you should contact a SEAT dealership. 

volume is too loud for a short period only.
CAUTION
If the volume is too high or the sound is distorted, the vehicle speakers may
be damaged.

(e.g. due to very quiet audio output from an external audio source), lower
the volume again before switching audio source. 
Additional information and display options
The text displayed on the screen may vary depending on the settings and
may not match the illustrations shown here.
All displays appear only after the radio-navigation system has completed
start-up.

the texts relating to driver assistance systems fitted at the factory are dis-
played. These displays disappear automatically when they are no longer re-
quired. 

Irrespective of the currently selected station, an additional component of
the receiver ensures that a station which broadcasts traffic programmes is
always received.

the background.
If the traffic news tracking function is available, TP is displayed on the upper
right corner of the screen ⇒ Fig. 17.
When no radio stations are received, for example, when the reception is
generally poor, No TP is displayed. 

Audio mode
Media mode Introduction
“Media sources” are audio sources containing audio files on various differ-
ent data media (e.g. CD, memory card, external MP3 player). These audio
files can be played by the radio and navigation system from its correspond-
ing drives or audio input sockets (internal CD player, memory card slot, ME-
DIA-IN interface, AUX-IN, etc.).
The supported file formats listed are collectively referred to below as “audio
files”. A CD containing audio files of these types is referred to as an “audio
data CD”.
Additional Information:
● Safety notes  ⇒ page 6
● Unit overview ⇒ page 8
● Multimedia interface ⇒ page 42
WARNING
● Inserting a data medium while you are driving could distract you from
the road and result in accident.
