Important information about this Owner's Manual
This Owner's Manual is valid for the different versions of the Infotainment
Swing (hereinafter referred to only as device). The device may vary in both its
appearance and in the controls arrangement, depending on the vehicle model
in which it is installed.
This Owner's Manual describes all possible device functions without identify-
ing them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent equip-
ment. Consequently, the device in your vehicle does not need to contain all of
the functions described in this Owner's Manual.
For example, if the vehicle is not factory equipped with the sound system, the
menu points
ŠKODA Surround
and
Virtual Subwoofer
are not displayed in the sound
settings menu.
For information about the device , e.g. with respect to its compatibility with
external devices or the software update, please refer to the following web-
sites.
http://go.skoda.eu/infotainment
The availability of some features described in this Owner's Manual depends
on the type of external devices (for example, telephone, music player, etc.).
The illustrations in this Owner's Manual are for illustrative purposes only. The
illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only inten-
ded to provide general information.
ŠKODA AUTO pursues a policy of ongoing product and model development
with all vehicles. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time
with regard to design, equipment and technology. The information provided in
this Owner's Manual corresponds to the information available at the time of
publishing.
Therefore, legal claims cannot be made based on the technical data, illustra-
tions and information contained in this Owner's Manual.
We recommend that the web pages that are referred to in this Owner's Man-
ual are displayed using the classic view. If the web pages are displayed using
the mobile view, they may not contain all necessary information.
Screen texts that appear in this Owner´s Manual may differ slightly depending
on the texts show on the device screen.
Declaration of conformity
ŠKODA AUTO hereby declares that the ŠKODA Infotainment systems meet the
basic requirements and additional provisions of the 1999/5/EC Directive with

Introductory information
Important notes
Introduction to the subject
WARNING■Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Use the device only so that you have the vehicle fully under control in any
traffic situation, for example, the telephone does not couple or connect,
does not work with the contact list, etc. - risk of accident!
WARNING■ Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside the vehi-
cle, e.g. sirens from emergency vehicles, can be heard at all times.■
High volumes can cause hearing damage.
WARNING■ Never leave a communication device, e.g. mobile phone, audio sources, in
the deployment area of an airbag, on a seat, on the dashboard or any an-
other area, from which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeu-
vre, an accident or a collision - risk of injury!■
Never connect or disconnect an external device while driving - risk of ac-
cident!

Always route the connection cable of the external device such that is
does not restrict you when driving.
CAUTION
In some countries, some unit features can no longer be selected when the ve-
hicle is running faster than a certain speed. This is not a malfunction, but com-
plies with the national legal regulations.
External devices and applications
The availability of some of the functions described in this Owner´s Manual
depends on the type of device to be connected and the applications installed
in it.
Mobile phones
On the following pages, check to see if the device is compatible with the selec-
ted mobile phones.
http://go.skoda.eu/compatibility
Due to the large number of mobile phones as well as the ongoing develop-
ment of these devices, ŠKODA AUTO cannot always ensure compatibility with
the device unconditionally. It is always recommended to physically check the
function on the associated vehicle, including the ŠKODA Partners, beforehand.
Only those versions of the selected phones will be tested and supported which
originate from the official distribution network. The same also applies to their
firmware and software.
The functions of the mobile phone to be tested may differ from the same type
of mobile phone depending on the specification for the respective country or
the specific service.
Mobile phones with the operating system and in the version available at the
time of these tests will be tested. In this regard, it could be the case that the
functions of a mobile phone may differ with a different operating system ver-
sion compared to the one used with the tested phone.
ŠKODA AUTO can accept no responsibility for the continuous changes made by
the mobile phone manufacturers and application vendors.
The function of some mobile applications may be affected by the quality of the
Internet connection at the respective location.
ŠKODA AUTO does not accept any liability for any damage to the device or ve-
hicle due to the use of incorrect or illegal applications or the improper or unau-
thorized use of mobile phones.6Introductory information

DAB station tracking
When a DAB transmitter is a part of several broadcast stations and if the cur-
rent station group is not available on any other frequency, then when the sig-
nal is poor, the same station will be searched in another channel group.
Automatic change from DAB to FM
With bad DAB reception the device tries to find an FM transmitter.
The station name is followed by ( 
) while the station is being received on the
FM band. The ( 
) marker disappears when the relevant DAB station can be re-
ceived again.
If a DAB station is also not available in the FM band due to poor reception, the
