An audible signal sounds as a warning.

Immediately reduce speed and avoid sudden steering and braking manoeu-
vres.

Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition off and check the tyres and their inflation
pressures » page 176 .

Correct the tyre pressure if necessary or replace the affected wheel
» page 182 or use the repair kit » page 186.

Save the tyre pressure values in the system » page 141.
System fault
 flashes for approximately 1 minute and remains lit – there may be a fault in
the tyre pressure monitoring system.

Stop the vehicle, turn the ignition off and start the engine again.
If the warning light  flashes again after the engine has started, there is a
system error.

Seek help from a specialist garage.
Disconnecting the vehicle battery
If the vehicle's battery has been disconnected and reconnected, the indicator
light 
comes on after switching on the ignition.
The warning light should go out after driving a short distance.
If, after a short drive, the indicator light does not go out, there is a system er-
ror.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
Other incidents
The following reasons can explain the warning light  being illuminated.
▶ The vehicle is loaded on one side. Distribute loads as evenly as possible.
▶ The wheels of one axle are loaded more heavily (e.g. when towing a trailer or
when driving uphill or downhill).
▶ Snow chains are mounted.
▶ A wheel has been changed.
CAUTION
Under certain circumstances (e.g. sporty style of driving, wintry or unpaved
roads) the warning light  can be delayed or does not light up at all.

If there is a fault in the turn signal system, the warning light flashes at twice
its normal rate. This does not apply when towing a trailer.
When the hazard warning light system is switched on, this will cause all of the
turn signal lights as well as both warning lights to flash.

Connection set-up›Switch on the ignition.›
Start the SmartGate application using the communication device to be con-
nected.

Then follow the instructions in the manual, which are included in the
SmartGate application.
With SmartGate, a maximum of two communication devices can be connected
simultaneously using Wi-Fi Direct, with as many launched ŠKODA applications
as required.
If you want to connect to SmartGate in another vehicle, you must first end the
existing connection to the SmartGate application and then re-establish the
connection.
Disconnection
The connection can be switched off in one of the following ways.

Switch off the ignition for longer than 5 seconds (for vehicles with a starter
button, switch off the engine and open the driver's door).

End the connection in the SmartGate application.

Switch off the Wi-Fi on the connected communication device.
Automatic connection
If the communication device once had a connection with SmartGate, then the
connection is automatically restored after the ignition is started.
SmartGate web interface
Read and observe
and on page 50 first.
SmartGate parameters can be set in the SmartGate web interface.
The following address must be entered via Wi-Fi in the web browser of the

Password/PIN code change
Read and observe
and on page 50 first.
The password for the Wi-Fi connection preset by the factory is the completevehicle identification number (upper case); the PIN code for the Wi-Fi Direct
connection preset by the factory is the last 6 digits of the vehicle identification
number.
After changing the password/PIN, the connection to SmartGate must be re-es-
tablished on the communication device to be connected using the new pass-
word or new PIN code.
If the password/PIN code is still set to the preset factory password/PIN code,
you are requested to change the password/PIN code after starting the ŠKODA
application. Without changing the password/PIN code, you are unable to use
the application.
Changing the password for the Wi-Fi connection

Open the SmartGate web interface.

In the menu item “WPA/WPA2 key:” Enter the new password (8 to 63 alpha-
numeric characters and special characters, small and capital letters).

Confirm the password change by tapping on the “Save” interface.

Restart SmartGate by tapping on the “Reboot” 1)

Your car is equipped with a central locking system.
The central locking system allows you to lock and unlock all doors, the fuel fill-
er flap and boot lid at the same time. The functions of the central locking sys-
tem can be individually adjusted » page 55.
After unlocking, depending on vehicle equipment and setting the following is
valid for the central locking. ▶ The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked.
▶ An double audible signal sounds additionally on vehicles which are fitted
with the anti-theft alarm system.
▶ The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are unlocked.
▶ The interior light comes on.
▶ The SafeLock system is switched off.
▶ The indicator light in the driver door stops flashing.
▶ The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated.
After locking, depending on vehicle equipment and setting the following is

▶ The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap are locked.

The interior lamp goes out.
▶ The SafeLock system is switched on.
▶ The indicator light in the driver door begins flashing.
▶ The anti-theft alarm system is activated.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Protection against unintended vehicle unlocking
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the SafeLock system
or anti-theft alarm system will be switched on.WARNING■ Never leave the key in the vehicle when you exit the vehicle. Unauthor-
ized persons, such as children, for example, could lock the car, turn on the
ignition or start the engine - there is a danger of injury and accidents!■
When leaving the vehicle, never leave people who are not completely in-
dependent, such as children, unattended in the vehicle. These individuals
might not be able to exit the vehicle by themselves or to help themselves.
Can be fatal at very high or very low temperatures!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) have a negative effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and ig-
nition lock.

If the driver's door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.
