Note
This Owner's Manual describes the range of fu
nctions at the time of going to press.
The illustrations can differ in minor
details from the version of your unit.
Important informationWarrantyThe equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles. After the expiration of the warranty, a piec
e of equipment in need of repair will be
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, however, a precondition that the housing has
not been damaged and no unauthorised
attempts have been made
to carry out repairs.
Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty must not be the result of improper handling of the system or from unprofession
al repair attempts. It is also essential
that there is no external damage.Device operationThe unit should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it. The volume settings must be selected in
such a way that audible signals from the
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility
vehicles (police cars,
ambulances and fire
brigade), can be heard at all times.

WARNING
Please concentrate fully at
all times on your driving! As the driver you are
fully responsible for road safety. Only use the functions of the radio in such a way that you are always in full co
ntrol of your vehicle in all traffic
situations!Using the displayCarefully handle the display because dent
s and scratches can occur through pres-
sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects. The display can be cleaned with a soft cl
oth and finger marks can be wiped away
with pure alcohol.
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or
petrol as they will corrode the display
surface.Anti-theft protectionAnti-theft codingYour radio is equipped with a convenience co
ding. If the radio is being operated for
the first time, the safety code is not only
stored in the radio but also in the vehicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the batte
ry, first of all switch on the ignition
and then the radio. If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be entered. In this case, please do not hesitate to co
ntact an authorised Škoda Service Partner
or a Škoda importer. As the unit only functions after entering the
safety code, this practically excludes its
use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety.
Note
The code is stored in the instrument cluste
r. This ensures that it is automatically
decoded (convenience coding). Manual
input of the code is normally not
necessary.Enter code– Switch on the radio if the ignition is on. – Enter the safety code using the station keys - . – Confirm the safety code by pressing the station key .If you have confirmed a wrongly entered co
de, you can repeat once again the entire
process. If the code number is entered incorrectl
y for the second time, the unit will be
blocked for approx. one hour. It is possible
to enter again the safety code after one
hour has expired, when the unit and th
e ignition have been switched on.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for
an hour - will continue to apply.
Basic settingSwitching the unit on and off– The system is switched on or off by briefly pressing the control button
.
If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock while the unit is switched on, the unit will switch off automatically. You can switch on
