82Communication
The MDI input is composed of the USB and AUX-IN inputs.
The purpose of the MDI input is to connect external devices (i.e. iPod ®
, mp3
players or USB memories) in order to play music using the audio system or
the navigation system.
In order to connect Apple multimedia devices (such as an iPod ®
/iPhone ®
…)
the corresponding adaptor from the SEAT Original Accessories catalogue is
required.
Voice control
Fig. 41 Multifunction
steering wheel: Voice
control
The time during which the system is ready to receive and execute voice com-
mands is called dialogue. The system gives off acoustic warnings and if
necessary will take you through the respective functions.
The Help menu should be used the first time the voice system is used to be-
come more familiar with the way it works. For voice commands to work optimally, certain factors must be taken into
account:
●
Speak slowly and clearly, as far as possible. The system will not recog-
nise words pronounced unclearly, or words and figures in which syllables
are omitted.
● Speak at a normal volume, without exaggerated intonation or long pau-
ses.
● Close doors, windows and sunroof to dampen and eliminate annoying
noises from outside. Do not turn the air outlets towards the roof.
● When driving at high speed you should speak louder.
● Keep accidental noise in the vehicle during the dialogue to a minimum,
e.g. passengers talking at the same time.
● Do not talk while the system is providing information.
The voice-control microphone is located in the roof trim and faces the driver
and front passenger. This is why the driver and front passenger should use
the device.
Enter the telephone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous row of digits memo-
rised in succession (the whole number at once) or as blocks of digits (sepa-
rated by brief pauses). After each series of digits (separated by a brief
pause) the digits recognised until then are repeated.
Digits 0 - 9 and the symbols +, , # are allowed. The system does not rec-
ognise coherent numeric combinations such as twenty-three.
Voice control activation
Press the 1
⇒ Fig. 41 button briefly on the multi-function steering
wheel.
Voice control deactivation
If the system is giving a message it should be stopped by pressing the

Keys
General notes
Fig. 42 Key with remote control/Key without remote control Two keys are always supplied with the vehicle. Depending on the model ver-
sion, your car may include keys without remote control ⇒ Fig. 42 or with
remote control ⇒ Fig. 42 .
WARNING
● Never leave the key inside whenever you leave the vehicle - even if
only for a moment. This is particularly important if children are to remain
in the vehicle. They might start the engine or some other electrical com-
ponent, e.g. electric windows. Risk of injury!
● Wait until the vehicle has completely stopped before taking the key
out of the ignition. Otherwise the steering wheel may lock suddenly. Risk
of accident!
CAUTION
● Each key contains electronic components and must, therefore, be pro-
tected from damp and strong vibrations.
● Keep the grooves in the key shaft clean. Any dirt (fibre from clothing,
dust, etc.) has a negative impact on locks, ignition, etc.
Note
Should a key be lost, request a duplicate key from an Authorised SEAT deal-
er.

Roll-back function on the electric windows
The electric windows are equipped with a roll-back system that reduces risk
of injury when closing windows.
If an obstacle is present, the closing mechanism will stop and the window
will roll back a few centimetres.
If an obstacle prevents closing for the next 10 seconds, the closing mecha-
nism will once again stop and the window will roll back another few centi-
metres.
If in the next 10 seconds you attempt to close the window after it has rolled
back the second time, only the closing mechanism will be stopped even if
the obstacle is still present. The roll-back function is still connected.
The roll-back function will only be disconnected if you once again attempt to
close the window in the following 10 seconds. In this case, the window will
close at full force
.
If you wait for a further 10 seconds, the roll-back function will be once again
connected.
