DAB programme tracking
If a DAB station is a member of several station groups, when the signal is poor,
the same station is searched in a different station group.
Auto-change DAB -FM
If the DAB signal is poor, the unit will try to find a corresponding FM station for
the DAB station you are currently listening to.
For auto-change to work, the DAB and FM stations must send a sender ID.
› While the station is received on the FM band, (
) is displayed after the station
name. When the relevant DAB station can be received again the marker disap- pears ( ).
› If a DAB station is also not available in the FM frequency band due to poor re-
ception, the device will be switched to mute.
› If you do not want automatic station change (e.g. when driving through tunnels,
when reception may be lost temporarily), you can deactivate this function .
L-band
Different frequency ranges are used for DAB radio reception in different coun-
tries. In some countries the DAB radio reception is only in the so-called L-band.
› If you have any problems with the DAB wireless reception check that DAB Auto-
matic search in L-band is on.
› If there is no DAB radio reception in that country in the L-band, then it is better
to leave it off this menu item. The channel scan is faster.

The Telephone menu is available when the following conditions are met: The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function on the device is switched on.
After the device is switched on, the system attempts to connect to the most re- cently connected mobile phone 1)
.
If a telephone is connected to the device and the device is turned off, the connec-
tion to the phone is not dropped. The connection is lost after switching off the
ignition (for vehicles with KESSY system after switching off the ignition and open-
ing the driver's door).
WARNING■ The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served.■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incorrectly,
this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle.

Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.

Never leave a mobile phone on a seat, on the dashboard or anywhere, from
which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an accident or a
collision - risk of injury. Use storage compartments with lid or the multimedia
holder for safe storage » Vehicle Owner's Manual , chapter Practical equip-
ment.

Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways it is possi-
ble that a phone conversation may be lost and no phone connection is possible -
not even in an emergency!■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is limited to
the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles be-
tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mobile phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when estab-lishing a connection with the device or transferring data.

Introductory information
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 35.
The device allows for a wireless connection to the mobile phone. Your mobile
phone can be operated from this unit. 

1)
With some phones, it is necessary to set the connection to the device as "authorised" in order for the
automatic connection to be successful. If this is not set, the system will prompt you for a confirma-
tion each time you attempt to connect to the mobile phone.

ŠKODA permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems with
a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission power of
up to 10 watts.
Please ask at a specialist workshop about installing and operating mobile phones
and two-way radio systems that have a transmission power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the func-
tionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The reasons for this are as follows:
› no external aerial;
› external aerial incorrectly installed;
› transmission power greater than 10 watts.
Note

We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
The phone features depend on the mobile network operators and on the phone
being used. Further information is available from the mobile network operator or
refer to your phone manual

In signal-free areas reception can be interrupted or the call disconnected.

Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. In exceptional
cases, electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals and tele-
phone service may be disrupted.

TMC traffic reports are used to optimise the route during route guidance when
there are traffic disruptions.
The device can obtain this information by using the following facilities:
› Traffic TP in the FM frequency range
» page 25 .
› TP in the DAB frequency range
› TMC traffic report with dynamic adjustment of the current route option
For the correct TMC function, the following conditions are required: The vehicle is within range of the FM RDS-TMC.Adequate and uninterrupted signal reception of a traffic report station 1)
.
Current navigation data in the device.
Operation
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital data service emitted by the radio sta-tion for continuous transmission of traffic information.

Press TRAFFIC to display a list of
traffic reports …/… .
Touch one of the traffic report entries to display traffic report details » page 64.
If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
ports are updated continuously in the background. The station you are listening
to does not have to be a TMC station.
The reception of TMC traffic reports is always switched on and cannot be turned off.
The accuracy of the dynamic route guidance depends on the transmitted traffic
reports. The radio stations broadcasting this information are responsible for the
content.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and saved by the radio navigation sys- tem when navigation data are available for the driven area.
Switch dynamic route on/off
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.›
In the Navigation main menu, press  Route options → → Dynamic route .
Traffic reports influence dynamic route guidance by means of TMC reports when
the Dynamic route » page 47 function is switched on.
Dynamic route switched on
Information on traffic problems received via TMC which affect the route are dis-
played in the map by means of a coloured symbol (e.g., ,  ,  , etc.). Traffic
problems, which do not affect the route, are displayed in the map by means of a
grey symbol. The direction in which a traffic problem is found, is displayed by
means of an arrow in the symbol.
Dynamic route switched off
You are not alerted to received traffic disruptions along your route and are guided
through the traffic disruption by the radio navigation system. The traffic reports are updated automatically in the unit and displayed by pressing the button TRAFFIC
.
If one of the announced traffic disruptions lies along your route, you can also
switch on the dynamic route guidance during the current route guidance or block
the route manually » page 63.
Note
Making a diversion from a traffic jam based on TMC traffic reports may not always
offer a time advantage, e.g. if the diversion route is also congested.
