WARNING: The infotainment central computer is inter-connected with the control units mounted on the vehicle. Therefore, there is a serious danger of accident and injury if the central computer is repaired or disassembled and reassembled incorrectly.

• Never replace the central computer with another used, recycled, or from another vehicle at the end of its useful life.
• The repair or disassembly and reassembly of the central computer should only be carried out at specialized workshops. SEAT recommends visiting a SEAT dealership for this.
• The factory-assembled radio with integrated software is interconnected with the control units mounted on the vehicle. Therefore, there is a serious danger of accident and injury if the radio is repaired or disassembled and reassembled incorrectly.

• Hearing may be impaired if using too high a volume setting, even if only for short periods of time.
• The following circumstances may result in an emergency call, phone call, or data transmission not being made or being interrupted:
  • When in areas with zero or insufficient mobile telephony or GPS signal. Also in tunnels, confined areas between very tall buildings, garages, underpasses, mountains, and valleys.
  • When in areas with a sufficient mobile phone or GPS signal, the telephony network of the telecommunications provider has interference or is not available.
  • When the vehicle components necessary to make emergency calls, phone calls and to transmit data are damaged, do not work, or do not have sufficient electrical power.
  • When the battery of the mobile phone device is discharged or its charge level is insufficient.
• In some countries and some telephone networks, it is only possible to make an emergency call, if a mobile telephone device is connected to. the telephone interface of the vehicle, inside it there is an “unlocked” SIM card with sufficient balance to make calls and with sufficient network signal coverage.
• Read and observe the operating instructions provided by the manufacturer in question when using mobile phone devices, data media, external devices, external audio, and multimedia sources.
• Position the connection cables of the audio sources and external devices so that they do not interfere with the driver.
• When changing or connecting an audio or multimedia source may cause sudden changes in the volume.
• Lower the volume before connecting or switching to audio or multimedia sources.
• If mobile phones and radiocommunication devices are used without connection to an external antenna, the maximum electromagnetic radiation levels inside the vehicle might be surpassed, thus posing a risk to the health of the driver and passengers. This is also the case if the external antenna has not been correctly installed.
• Keep a distance of at least 20 centimeters between the antennas of the mobile phone device and an active medical device, such as a pacemaker, as mobile phones might alter the functioning of these devices.
