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

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.

ised repair attempts have been made.

“AUX ”. More detailed information is available from your Škoda Service 
Partner.
Operating the radio navigation system when the 
vehicle is moving.
The requirements of today's street traffic demand from the driver that he 
always concentrates fully when driving.
The extensive and fastidious equipment details of this system offer - 
besides the possibilites of entertainment - also a wide range of information 
which will help you reach the trip destination quickly and reliably.
Only if the traffic situation allows it, should you operate the radio 
navigation system with its wide range of possibilites.
The volume settings must be selected in such a way that acoustic signals 
from the outside, such as e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police 
cars, ambulances and fire brigade), can be heard at any time.
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!
Anti-theft coding
After removing the unit, the anti-theft coding prevents electronically the 
use of the unit by an unauthorised person. If the information “
SAFE” appears in the display after switching on the unit, 
it can only be operated again by entering the correct code.
Before using the navigation system and the map 
display
•Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•Street and location names can be changed. There are exceptional 
cases in which the names stored on the CD might not correspond to the 
changed names.
•The route calculated by the navigation system is a recommendation 
for reaching the trip destination. While driving please pay attention to stop-
ping restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets, toe change restrictions, 
channels and ferries.
WARNING
The road traffic legislation (StVO)  is always applicable, also if a 
driving recommendation does  not comply with the StVO.
