•RDS evaluation is not possible if the signal is too weak. In this case it
is the frequncy which appears in the status bar or in the info field instead
of the RDS station name.
•If there are unfavourable reception conditions (e.g. in the mountains)
the unit checks very often the alternative frequencies. This can cause brief
mutings.
•If this causes mutings and tone distortions in extremely poor reception
locations, the RDS function is temporarily switched off.
Traffic radio reception
Many stations in the FM range regularly transmit the current traffic reports
within their transmitting range.
After selecting a station, check if the set station has traffic reports.
If the set station is a TP station (station with traffic radio reception), the
identification “ TP” appears in addition to the station name in the info field
of the radio basic menu. The station remains set. The functions “ traffic
information standby ” and “EON” are active.
If the set station has no traffic radio station or cannot be received, the unit
searches automatically for another traffic radio station in the reception
area (start station finding). The message “ TP SEEK” (searching traffic
radio station) appears in the radio information display.
Listening to traffic information
A traffic information is detected by the unit using the traffic information
identification. Even if the radio is set very low or in the CD mode you can
listen to a traffic information. The play function is performed in Mono. The
message “ Info” appears in the radio information display. Simultaneously
the traffic information is recorded in the traffic information memory (TIM)
⇒ page 20. Interrupting a traffic information
If a traffic information was interrupted, press the button . A new
traffic information can be emitted.
Cancel traffic information standby
The traffic information standby is cancelled in the menu “
Select source”
when switching over to FM or AM level.
Traffic information memory - Traffic Memo (TIM)
The radio navigation system has a digital voice memory with which upto
nine traffic reports with a total duration of maximum four minutes can be
automatically recorded.
If the radio is switched on each traffic report of the set station is
recorded, if the show “ TP” is present in the info field.
If the unit is switched off traffic reports are recorded for as long as they
were selected in the menu “ Audio Settings” under “TIM-Standby”
⇒ page 14. This function can also be switched off.
Replaying the traffic reports
If you press the button , the replay of the traffic reports starts with
the last recorded traffic information and continues to the oldest traffic infor-
mation. The show “ TIM Track 4 Time 14:10 TP ” appears in the info field:
TIM - Play function of a recorded traffic information
Tra ck 4 - There are four traffic information. The play function begins with
the latest information.
Time 14:10 - Recording time

After the guidance was activated, the system begins to calculate the route.
This procedure can take some seconds. During this period the display of
the direction of travel in the direction of the destination indicates the infor-
mation “ Calc. route ” and the voice response answers “ The route is
being calculated ”. In addition the distance of the air traffic line to the
destination is shown.
•If the vehicle is located on a digitalized street, the guidance is
performed via acoustic and optical driving recommendations after ending
the route calculation.
•If the vehicle is not located on a digitalized street (e.g. car park,
garage, multi-storey car park), the information “ Off road” is shown on the
left of the screen.
•If you are located outside the ares stored on the navigation CD (e.g.
abroad) the information “ Off map” is shown on the left of the screen.
•If the system cannot calculate a route for the selected destination, the
information “ No route” is shown on the left of the screen. In this case follow the display of the direction of travel which points in the
direction of the destination. You will obtain acoustic and optical driving
recommendations as soon as you are driving on a digitalized street.

road traffic legislation (StVO) is always applicable, also if a driving
recommendation does not comply with the StVO.
Note
•The navigation system gives the driving recommendations as spoken
driving instructions and through guiding symbols in the symbol display on
the screen.
•The recommendations are carried out in good time so that there is
always enough time to prepare a turn process.

Automatic tailback function (for units
with dynamic navigation)
Important information
The unit is prepared technically for dynamic navigation. For the availability
of this function, the following requirements apply:
•Navigation CD must assist the dynamic navigation
•at least one TMC station must be receiveable
Please do not hesitate to contact your Škoda Service Partner should you
have any further questions regarding this matter.
What is dynamic navigation?
The dynamic navigation enables an automatic adaptation of the calcu-
lated route on the basis of the receiveable traffic reports.
The traffic reports are not audibly emitted by different broadcasting
stations in addition to the radio program via a TMC (Traffic Message
Channel).
The navigation system receives this data via a separate TMC box and
evaluates it. If a traffic report is received, which is of great importance for
the calculated route, the route is automatically recalculated.

•By activating the dynamisation the other route options are preset as
fixed and cannot be changed.
•The dynamisation can also be switched on and off during an active
guidance.
•The function “GALA ” is switched off if the dynamisation is switched on.
•The navigation system always calculates a time optimized route; i.e. if
a tailback leads to detours and thus would mean a time loss the naviga-
tion system can under these circumstances guide through the tailback.
This depends on the length and type of the reported tailback and the
length of the possible detour.
Displays of the traffic reports
The traffic reports received via TMC can be displayed also as text
messages on the screen of your navigation system.
– Press the button tailback function . The tailback menu appears.
