WARNING
Please always pay full attention to the traffic situation around you! As the driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Only use the functions in such a way that you always maintain the control over your vehicle in all traffic situations!
Using the display
Carefully handle the display because dent s and scratches can occur through pres- sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects.
The display can be cleaned with a soft cl oth and finger marks can be wiped away with pure alcohol.
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will corrode the display surface.
Anti-theft protection
Anti-theft coding
Your radio is equipped with a convenience co ding. If the radio is being operated for the first time, the safety code is not only stored in the radio but also in the vehicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the batte ry, first of all switch on the ignition and then the radio.
If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be entered. In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a Škoda Service Partner or a Škoda importer.
As the unit only functions after entering the safety code, this practically excludes its use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety.

The code is stored in the instrument cl uster. Through this it is automatically decoded (convenience coding). A manual entry of the code is normally not necessary.

If the code number is entered incorrectl y for the second time, the unit will be blocked for approx. one hour. It is only po ssible to repeat the entry of the safety code after an hour has expired and while the unit is switched on and the ignition key remains in the ignition lock.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - furthermore applies.

Information on how to use a CD

Formation of condensation
When it is cold and after rain showers, moisture can deposit in the CD drive (condensation). This can effect the CD jump or impair the play function. In such cases wait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CDs
If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather with a soft fluffly cloth from inside to outside. In case of severe layers of dirt we recom- mend to clean the CD with a commercially av ailable CD cleaner. Also in this case do not clean the CD in the direction of a circ le but rather from inside to outside and then let it dry off.
