Unlocking all doors and the luggage compartment lid
› Press the button
.
The following applies if your vehicle has been locked using the central locking
button.
› It is not possible to open the doors or the luggage compartment lid from the
outside (safety feature, e.g. when stopping at traffic lights etc.).
› The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
› If at least one door has been opened, the vehicle cannot be locked.
› In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked from the inside in order to enable rescuers to gain
access to the vehicle. WARNING
The central locking system also operates if the ignition is switched off. Chil-
dren should never be left unattended in the vehicle since it is difficult to pro-
vide assistance from the outside when the doors are locked. Locked doors
make it difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – hazard! Note
If the safe securing system is activated » page 22, the door opening lever and the
central locking buttons do not operate. Ð Remote control
Introductory information
You can use the remote control key to:
› unlock and lock the vehicle,
› unlock the luggage compartment lid.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle. The operating range of
the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control can
be reduced if the batteries are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking the
car manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or replaced, the
system must be initialised by a ŠKODA
Service Partner. Only then can the remote
control key be used again. Note
■ The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched
on. ■ The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter). £

Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked. If the vehicle is unlocked using button 1
and none of the doors or the
luggage compartment lid are opened within the next 30 seconds, the vehicle is
automatically locked again and the safe securing system is reactivated. This func-
tion is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally. Locking
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been correctly
locked.
If the doors or the luggage compartment lid remain open after the vehicle has
been locked, the turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
WARNING
If the car is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is activated,
there must not be any person in the car as it is then not possible to open ei-
ther a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more diffi-
cult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – hazard! Note
■ Only operate the remote control when the doors and luggage compartment lid
are closed and the vehicle is in your line of sight. ■ To avoid the car being locked inadvertently once in the car, the lock button of the remote control must not be pressed before the key is inserted into the ig-
nition lock. Should this happen, press the unlock button
of the remote control.
Ð Synchronization
If the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuating the remote control system then it
is possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle are no lon-
ger synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-operated key are
actuated a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or
the battery on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
› press any button on the remote control key;
› pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1 mi-
nute. Ð
