•
The replacement battery must have the same specification as the original
battery.
•
If it is still not be possible to unlock or lock the vehicle with the remote control
even after replacing the batte ry this means that the system has to be synchronised
 page 35.
Electronic immobiliserThe electronic immobiliser prevents the vehicle being operated by an
unauthorised person.An electronic chip is integrated in the head of the key. The immobiliser is deacti-
vated with the aid of this chip when the key is inserted in the ignition lock. The elec-
tronic immobiliser is automatically activa ted when you withdraw the ignition key
from the lock.
Note
It is only possible to start the engine of your car with a Genuine Škoda key with the

So long as the child safety lock is switched on it is not possible to open the door
from the inside with the door opening leve r. In this case the door can be opened
only from the outside.Central locking systemDescriptionUnlocking or locking the vehicle causes all doors to be unlocked or locked at the
same time by the central locking system. The boot lid is unlocked when opening. It
can be opened by pressing the hand grip above the licence plate page 33.
Operation of the central lo cking system is possible:•

Technical Data
If the indicator light first of all flashes fast
for about 2 seconds, afterwards lights up
for about 30 seconds and then flashes slowly, there is a fault in the system of the
central locking or the interior monitor* page 36. Visit a specialist garage to obtain
assistance.
Convenience operation of the windows*
One can open and close the electrically powered windows when unlocking and
locking the vehicle page 39.
Opening a single door*
This function makes it poss ible to only unlock the driver's door. The other doors
remain locked and are only unlocked when the command is repeated.
If you wish, you can have your authorised Škoda Service Partner activate the func-
tion of the single door opening mode.
Automatic unlocking and locking*
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a speed
of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked again. In
addition, it is possible for the driver to unlock the car by pressing the central locking
button
 or by pulling the door opening lever.
If you wish, you can have a specialist gara ge activate the automatic locking function.WARNING
Locking the doors prevents involuntary opening in an exceptional situation (an
accident). Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into the vehicle from outside,
for example at road crossings. Locked do ors do, however, make it more difficult
for rescuers to get into the vehicl e in an emergency - danger to life!
Note
•
In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehicle.
•
Only the front doors can be unlocked and locked using the key if the central
locking system fails. You can lock or unlo ck manually the other doors and the boot
lid.
−Emergency locking of the door page 33.
− Emergency unlocking of the boot lid page 34.
Safe securingThe central locking system is equipped with a safe securing
2) system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door lock s to be automatically blocked. It is not
possible to open the doors with the door handle either from the inside or from the
outside. This acts as an effective deterren t for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system by locking twice within 2 seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operat ing, the warning light in the driver door
flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and starts to flash slowly again after
about 30°seconds.
The safe securing system is again activate d the next time the vehicle is unlocked
and locked again.
The doors can be opened from the inside if the vehicle is locked and the safe
securing system is deactivated:
•
The door is unlocked by actu ating the door-opening lever.
•
The door opens upon actuating the door-opening lever again.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outsid e and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person and animals in the vehicle as it is then not
possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors
make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency -
hazard!
Note
The anti-theft alarm system* is also acti vated with the deactivated safe securing
system when locking the vehicle. The interior monitor* is however not activated.2)Only valid for some countries.

Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same type. The
designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something which you can do yourself, but requires to
be done by a specialist. Other parts of the vehicle must be removed in order to
change the light bulbs. This applies, in particular, to bulbs which can only be reached
from the engine compartment.
We therefore recommend that you have an y bulbs changed by an authorised Škoda
