Introduction
This system allows you to connect your mobile phone to the
vehicle and to use the hands-free mode.
The hands-free device means that the telephone can be used inside the
vehicle; the driver does not have to remove his/her hands from the steering
wheel nor is he/she distracted from driving.
Note
•The voice command system is only available in the following languages:
Spanish, German, English, French, Italian and Czech. Other languages (such
as Dutch or Portuguese) will have Spanish as the default language for voice
instructions, and the vehicle must be taken to an Authorised Service Centre
to change this.
•There are certain versions of mobile telephone software that contain
errors. These errors may give rise to faulty operation of the vehicle hands-free
system. In this case, please consult the Authorised Service Centre for your
mobile telephone.
•Some mobile devices do not respond correctly to keypad orders while in
hands-free mode. Always use the vehicle controls to interact with the mobile
telephone.

Bluetooth®
Bluetooth technology enables wireless connections between
mobile and fixed devices without needing cables.
The use of mobile communication and information is becoming increasingly
more important in both personal and business environments.
Until recently, the transfer of information between mobile devices was only
possible through wired and infrared connections.
These non-standardised connections greatly limited the range of use and
were very complicated to operate.
For this reason, the introduction of the Bluetooth® technology represents a
great change, allowing the establishment of a standardised remote connec-
tion between mobile devices from different manufacturers.
WARNING
The Bluetooth function must be switched off during air travel (please refer
to the phone manual).
Note
Certain software versions of some mobile telephones contain errors or limited
functions (for example “Download phone book”). These errors may give rise
to faulty operation of the vehicle hands-free system. In this case, please
consult the Authorised Service Centre for your mobile telephone.
Bluetooth® configuration
Before using the functionality of the Bluetooth connection
between the mobile telephone and the hands-free system for
the first time, the connection must be configured.
The hands-free system and the mobile telephone must recognise each other.
To proceed, first the Bluetooth function on the mobile telephone must be acti-
vated. Then, after turning on the ignition, select the option on the telephone
to search for other Bluetooth communication devices within range, in other
words, the hands-free system of the vehicle (SEAT_UHV). The next step is to
select this hands-free system. The complete instructions for completing this
operation are found in the instruction manual for the mobile phone.
The final step for establishing the connection is the introduction of the PIN
code into the hands-free system (initially 1234). If you would like to change
the PIN code for the SEAT _UHV system, please contact an official SEAT work-
shop. Once the PIN code has been entered, then the connection is estab-
lished and the system can be used with the Bluetooth system. The moment
that the connection is established, the hands-free kit will emit an acute
sound.
Once the initial configuration process is finished, each time the telephone is
within range of establishing a Bluetooth connection with the hands-free
system this will be done automatically as long as the ignition is on and
without any need to configure the connection further.
The connection between the telephone and the hands-free system will not be
established if this system is already communicating with another phone.
If there are two or more Bluetooth teleph ones within communication range of
the hands-free system then the system will connect with the phone that was
most recently connected.

WARNING
•When your mobile phone establishes a connection with the hands-free
system, it emits both a visual and audible signal.
•It should be noted that when driving at night with the radio off, the
visual signal involves the screen lighting up for approximately 3 seconds.
Note
It is important to personalise the device PIN code using a personal 4 digit
code. Consult an official SEAT workshop.

Radiophones
Any retrofit installations of radiophones in the vehicle require prior approval.
SEAT generally authorises in-vehicle installations of approved types of radio-
phones provided that:
•the aerial is installed correctly,
•the aerial is installed on the exteri or of the vehicle (and shielded cables
are used together with non-reflective aerial trimming),
•the effective transmitting power does not exceed 10 Watts at the aerial
base.
Your Authorised Service Centre will be able to inform you about options for
installing and operating radiophones with a higher transmitting power. Business equipment
The retrofit of domestic and business equipment is permitted provided that
these do not effect the driver's concentration and that they are
CE approved.
Equipment retrofitted to the vehicle that may have an effect on the concentra-
tion of the driver must come with a specific licence for this type of vehicle and
with the symbol CE.
Note
•The posterior fitting of electric and electronic equipment in this vehicle
affects its licence type and could lead to the withdrawal of the vehicle regis-
tration document under certain circumstances.
•We would request that you pay special attention to the instructions
regarding the use of mobile telephones and radio transmitters.
