to unlock and lock the car,
•
unlocking boot lid,
•
electrically open and close the windows.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control key. The receiver is located in the interior of
the car. The operating range of the remote
control is approx. 10 m. But this range of
the remote control can be reduced if the
batteries are weak. The remote control 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 receiv
er unit has been repaired or a new unit
installed, it is then necessary for an authorised Škoda Service Partner to initialise the system. Only after this is it possib
le to again use the remote control.
Note
•
The remote control is automatically deac
tivated 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).•
The battery must be replaced, ideally by
an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if
the central locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control at less than 3 metres away.•
If the driver door is opened, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote
control.

⇒page 54. If there is an obstacle, the
closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centime-ters. You should then take particular care when closing the windows! You may otherwise suffer severe injuries
as a result of getting an arm, for
example, jammed in the window!
Note
•
After switching the ignition off, it is st
ill possible to open or close the windows
for a further 10 minutes. The automatic closing and opening functions will not operate during this time. The power windows are switched off completely once you open the driver or front passenger door.•
If the child safety lock is switched on,
the lighting of the switch for the window
lifter in the rear doors* is not activated.Force limiter of the power windowsThe electrically operated power windows are fitted with a force limiter. It reduces the risk of bruises or injuries when closing the windows. If there is an obstacle, the closing proce
ss is stopped and the window goes down by
several centimeters. If the obstacle prevents the window from
being closed during the next 10 seconds,
the closing process is interrupted once ag
ain and the window go
e s d o w n b y s e v e ra l
centimeters. You must try to close the window once
again within 10 seconds after the window
has gone down twice, even if the obstacle
was not yet removed, the closing process
is stopped. During this time it is not possible to automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched on.
The force limiter is only switched off, if
you attempt to close the window within the
next 10 seconds -
the window closes now with full strength!
