Important Information
Important Information. Traffic safety
Travelling on today's roads requires the driver's full attention at all times.
Only operate the radio system and its various functions when the traffic sit-
uation really permits this.

●Before starting the trip, you should familiarise yourself with the dif-
ferent radio functions.
●High audio volume may represent a danger to you and to others.
●Adjust the volume in a way that you can distinguish surrounding
noise, for example, horns and sirens, etc.
●Radio settings should be made when the car is stopped or by a pas-
senger.
Note
The card bearing the radio code is available according to the model of the
vehicle. Separate the radio card and keep it in a safe place, but never inside

Safety notes
WARNING
Accidents and injuries can occur if the driver is distracted. Operating the
radio-navigation system can distract you from the road.
●Always drive carefully and responsibly.
●Select volume settings that allow you to easily hear signals from out-
side the vehicle at all times (e.g. emergency service sirens).
●Setting the volume too high may damage your hearing. This also ap-
plies if you are exposed to high volumes for short periods only.
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 source or connecting
a new audio source.
WARNING
Driving recommendations and traffic symbols displayed by the naviga-
tion system may differ from the current traffic situation.
●Traffic signs and traffic regulations have priority over the recommen-
dations and displays provided by the navigation system.
●Adapt your speed and driving style to suit visibility, weather, road
and traffic conditions.
WARNING
Connecting, inserting or removing a data medium while the vehicle is in
motion can distract you from the road and lead to accidents.
WARNING
Connecting leads for external devices may obstruct the driver.
●Arrange the connecting leads so that they do not obstruct the driver. 

5Introduction
WARNING
External devices that are placed loose in the vehicle or not properly se-
cured could be flung though the interior and cause injuries during a sud-
den driving or braking manoeuvre, or in the event of an accident.
●You should never position or attach an external device on a door, on
the windscreen or above or near to the areas marked “AIRBAG” on the
steering wheel, the dash panel and the seat backrests, or between these
areas and the vehicle occupants. External devices could cause serious in-
jury in an accident, especially when the airbags inflate.
WARNING
An armrest may obstruct the driver's arm movements, which could cause
accidents and severe injuries.
●Always keep the armrest closed while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
Opening a CD or DVD player's housing can lead to injuries from invisible
laser radiation.
●Have CD or DVD players repaired only by a qualified workshop.
CAUTION
The unit can be damaged by incorrect insertion of a data medium or inser-
tion of an incompatible data medium.
●When inserting a memory card, make sure it is correctly positioned
⇒ page 30.
●Applying force may destroy the memory card slot's locking mechanism.
●Only use suitable memory cards.
●When inserting and removing CDs and DVDs, always hold them at right
angles to the front of the unit. Inserting or removing them at an angle to the
DVD drive may lead to scratching.
●Inserting a second CD or DVD while a CD or DVD is inserted or is being
ejected can destroy the DVD drive. Always wait until the data medium is
completely ejected.
CAUTION
Any foreign objects attached to a data medium and non-round data media
can damage the DVD drive.
●Only clean standard 12 cm CDs or DVDs should be used!
–Do not affix stickers or other items to the data medium. Stickers may
peel off and damage the drive.
–Do not use printable data media. Coatings and prints may peel off
and damage the drive.
–Do not insert 8 cm single CDs or irregularly shaped CDs or DVDs.
–Do not insert DVD Plus discs, dual discs or flip discs, as these are
thicker than normal CDs.
CAUTION
The vehicle loudspeakers may be damaged if the volume is too high or the
sound is distorted. 

General information on operating the unit
Introduction
Due to changes to settings, the display content may vary and some aspects
of the unit's operation may differ from the descriptions given in this man-
ual.
Additional information and warnings:
●Safety notes  ⇒ page 4
●Unit overview ⇒ page 6
Note
Lightly pressing the buttons or briefly pressing the touchscreen is sufficient
to operate the unit.
Note
After you make entries, the radio-navigation system may need a few sec-
onds for processing and may not respond to operation of controls. Never-
theless, do not continue to operate the unit, because operating sequences
that have been input are “memorised” and “processed” in succession once
the background processes have been completed.
Note
Not all listed function buttons and functions may be available due to the de-
vice software used in your market. The equipment is not faulty if a function
button is missing from the screen.
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
loudspeakers.
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. 
Switching on and off
●To switch the unit on or off manually, briefly press the rotary/push knob
 ⇒ Fig. 1.
When the unit is switched on, the system starts up and the audio source
last played will be activated.
Depending on the unit version and the country, the unit may be switched off
automatically when the engine is switched off or the vehicle key is removed
from the ignition lock. If the unit is switched on again, it will be switched off
automatically after approximately 30 minutes (switch-off delay).
Anti-theft coding
Once the anti-theft code has been entered for the first time, it remains stor-
ed in the vehicle (convenience radio coding). If the anti-theft code has to be
removed manually, e.g. because the unit has been installed in another vehi-
cle, please contact a SEAT dealership.
If only the vehicle battery has been disconnected, switch the ignition on be-
fore switching on the unit again. 

source, reduce the volume again before switching to another audio source. 
Additional display content and display options (screen off,
clock display etc.)
All displays appear only after the radio-navigation system has completed
start-up.

the status bar within a few seconds. The station or track will then be dis-
played above or below it. This display feature can be deactivated under Set-
up System ⇒ page 123.

tings or information on factory-fitted driver assistance systems may be dis-
played temporarily on the screen. These displays disappear automatically
