Navigation
The navigation system is your “ intelligent front passenger”. You can 
reach the desired destination quickly, easily and reliably without time-
consuming map searching from the starting point of your trip. In unknown 
locations it saves you time by guiding you to the next filling station. You 
can make an intermittent stop on the road, in order e.g. to go and eat in a 
restaurant or to visit a sight. The system uses the data stored on the navi-
gation CD for the calculation of the trip destination. During the guidance 
you will receive via different screen displays information about vehicle 
position; notes regarding turns (direction and distance until the turn) and 
the arrival time at the trip destination.
Announcement of the ŠkodaAuto radio navigation system
Under certain requirements the system must be announced, as it is 
equipped with a radio unit.
How does the radio navigation system function?
The current vehicle position is determined using satellites. The distance 
travelled is measured by the ABS. The direction of travel is determined 
using a gyroscope. The navigation system is provided with this informa-
tion and compared with the stored data.
Outside the densely populated areas it is possible that this type of locating 
does not permit exact position definition. In this case the locating is 
performed via satellites. This type of locating is referred to as Global Posi-
tioning System (GPS ) - global satellite locating system.
Important information
Warranty
The same warranty terms apply for the equipment as for new vehicles.
Note
A damage in the sense of the warranty must not be the result from 
improper handling of the system or from unprofessional repair attempts. 
In addition, no external damage must be present.
Replacement possibility
After the expiration of the warranty, a unit in need of repair will be replaced 
inexpensively with a reconditioned, original unit with spare part warranty. 
However it is required that there is no housing damage and no unauthor-
ised repair attempts have been made.
Note
In the case of a warranty or a replacement service, the Škoda Service 
Partner must be presented with the unit card with code number and serial 
number!
Audio/Video units
Other audio units can be connected with an adapter cable to your naviga-
tion system, which then can be activated in the menu “ Select source” with

Note
If there are less than six RDS stations, the stations without RDS are stored 
and classified according to the field power on the remaining station 
buttons.   If there are less than six radio stations (TP) the remaining station 
buttons are not changed.
 Storing radio stations
You can store on the station buttons   -     three ranges  - 
FM (UKW), TP (Traffic Program  = radio station ) and AM (MW) - 
each six stations on two memory levels (e.g. memory levels FM1 
and FM2)
