How to reset the infotainment system of the Seat Leon

Model: Seat Leon KL1, KL8 - Years 2020-2026
Part: Onboard computer

Let's see how to reset the infotainment system of the Seat Leon: we start with a soft reset to use when the screen occasionally freezes, and we have a temporary slowness of the system. Locate the volume button on the dashboard, and hold it down for 10/15 seconds; wait for the screen to turn off and on again and release it when you see the Seat logo. With this system, personal settings are not lost, it is a quick operation and solves a good part of small problems. If instead we need to solve persistent problems, serious malfunctions of the system, or before selling the car, we must do a complete reset: go to "settings" and select "system". from here we select "restore factory settings". This deletes all data: contacts, preferences, associated apps, loses all settings and deletes connected accounts.
