Any idea what this means and what causes it?

I've only seen that message on a really hot day, when the car was facing into the sun and the interior was roasting.
I believe it's where the audio system is unable to operate fully due to its internal temperature, hence it's protecting itself. Once I drove away with the aircon on for 15 minutes the audio system came on and the message disappeared.
No idea why you're seeing it in March, unless you parked in an oven.

Yea I’ve seen this too a voltage spike will also put the headunit into protection mode too. My head unit constantly has errors every few weeks without fail. Then goes back to normal. Sometimes I even have to do a factory reset as the sound goes and won’t turn back on. What year is the car?
If you take it to seat they’ll probably just say it may be due a software update and book you in to update the software and then ask you to monitor it anyway. That’s what I’d do at VW to a customer if the fault wasn’t present at time of diag bud.
It happens once. When really hot,headunit shutdown for a moment,and start up.

Yea hopefully mate defo mention it to them at the service coz they will just update the software if it isn’t the newest software version. Like I said mine does it without fail every few weeks I’ve just learned to live with it as mines a company car and I don’t care now. Definitely would be a different story if I owned the car like you tho.
Next time it happens put the back of your hand on the screen and feel how hot it is thatll also help explain what’s going on if it is over heating you’ll feel it’s hot. Then you can tell seat it’s potentially over heating.
That’s providing it does it more and more from now on.

That rules that out then maybe. Back to voltage spike theory. Try not to worry about it bud. Just monitor for now until it happens more and more if at all ever happens again. And mention it before the booking of your service so they put it on the job card and not tell them at time of check in when dropping off the car.

I know it’s for VW but SEAT are part of VAG group.

Haha never happens on my 1989 ford Sierra either they just don’t make them like they used it. All this technology these days.
Is it time to suggest to the mods that we have an 'Olde Pharts' section of the forum, where we can gather and complain about all the new-fangled stuff and how much better it was in the good old days?
My missus nominates me as Chief Olde Phart.
