CAUTIONIf the safe securing system is activated» page 32, the door opening lever and
the central locking buttons do not operate.
Note
■ In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehi- cle.■
Only the driver's door can be locked or unlocked with the key if the central lock-
ing system fails. The other doors and the tailgate can be locked or unlocked man-
ually. ■ Emergency locking of the door » page 31.
■ Emergency unlocking of the boot lid » page 38.
Individual settings
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 31.
Opening a single door
This selection function makes it possible to only unlock the driver's door. The oth-
er doors remain locked and are only unlocked when the command is repeated.
Automatic locking and unlocking
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a
speed of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked again. In addition, it is possible for the driver or front passenger to unlock the car by press-
ing the central locking button
» page 33 .
The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
Note
Individual settings can be applied in a specialist workshop.
Safe securing
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 31.
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system. The door
locks are blocked automatically if the vehicle is locked from the outside. The warning light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it be-gins to flash evenly at longer intervals. It is not possible to open the doors withthe door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts as an effec-
tive deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
The safe securing system can be deactivated within 2 seconds by double locking
the vehicle.
If the safe securing system is not operating, the warning light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and starts to flash evenly at longer in-
tervals after about 30 seconds.
The safe securing system is activated again the next time the vehicle is unlocked and locked.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, the door can
be opened from the inside by a single pull on opening lever of the respective
door.
WARNINGIf the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then no longer pos-
sible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors
make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk of death.
Note
■ The anti-theft alarm system is activated when the vehicle is locked even if the
safe securing system is deactivated. The interior monitor is however not activa- ted.■
You will be informed that the safe securing system is activated after the vehicle
is locked by the CHECK DEADLOCK message on the instrument cluster display. On
vehicles equipped with the MAXI DOT display, the display shows Check deadlock.
Read manual.

You can use the remote control key to:
› unlock and lock the vehicle,
› unlocking boot lid;
› open and close the windows
» page 40, Window convenience operation .
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.
The system must be initialised by a specialist garage if a lost key is replaced or if
the receiver unit has been repaired or replaced. Only then can the remote control
key be used again.
Note■ The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched
on.■
Operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
from transmitters close to the car operating in the same frequency range (e.g.
mobile phone, TV transmitter).
■
The battery must be replaced if the central locking or anti-theft alarm system
does react to the remote control at less than 3 metres away » page 29.
■
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
key.

Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked. If the vehicle is unlocked using button 1
» Fig. 16 and none of the doors
or the tailgate are opened within the next 30 seconds, the vehicle is automatical-
ly locked again and the safe securing system or anti-theft alarm system is reacti- vated. This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentional-ly.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the electrically adjustable seats and exteri-
or mirrors move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver
seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved.
Locking
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been correctly
locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
WARNINGIf 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 – risk of death.
Note
■ Only operate the remote control when the doors and boot lid are closed and the
vehicle is in your line of sight.■
A ŠKODA partner can also activate/deactivate the acoustic signals on vehicles
with an anti-theft alarm system.

If the vehicle does not unlock when the remote control is pressed, the key may
not be synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the remote control key are pressed several times outside the operating range of the equipment or if the
battery in the remote control key has been replaced.
Synchronise the key as follows.
›
Press any button on the remote control key.
›
Unlock the door with the key within 1 minute of pressing the button.
