precondition that the housing has not be en 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 unprofessional repair attempts. It is also essential that
there is no external damage.Information on how to operate the radio navigation systemThe requirements of today's road traffic demand the driver’s full concentration at all
times.
Apart from the availability entertainmen t, the extensive and demanding equipment
details of this radio navigation system also offer a wide range of information, which will
help you to reach your destination quickly and safely.
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 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 navigation
system in such a way that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all
traffic situations!
•
The following must always have priority over the driving recommendations:
•
the road traffic legi slation, even if the drivin g recommendations contradict
the StVO,
•
the actual acknowledgement of traffic si gns, light signals or signs placed by
the police at the relevant location,
•
the facts and circumstances prevai ling at the relevant location.
Before using the radio navigation system•
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•
Street and location names can be changed. It is therefore possible that the names
stored on the CD might not correspond to the changed names.
•
The route calculated by the radio navi gation system is a recommendation for
reaching the intended destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets, lane changes, bodies of water and ferries,
railways etc.Caution
•
Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging them.
Gentle pressure on the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit. Please note that
the control buttons have predetermined breaking points, in order to reduce the risk of
injury.
•
Do not use any pointed or sharp-edged objects to operate the touch-screen. Slight
finger pressure sufficient to operate the equipment. A display on the screen, which
cannot be called up by pressing the button, is therefore not available at that time.
•
Please note that a dirty or scratched navigation CD can considerably impair the
speed and the functions of the radio navigation system.
Screen careTreat the screen with great care, because de nts and scratches can occur through finger
pressure or contact with sharp objects.
The screen can be cleaned with a soft clot h and finger marks can be wiped away with
pure alcohol.
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will attack the screen surface.

General information5
Anti-theft protectionThe anti-theft coding of your radio naviga tion system prevents an operation of the
system after a voltage interruption, e.g. duri ng a vehicle repair or after theft. After
disconnecting the battery, disconnecting th e radio navigation system from the on-
board voltage of the vehicle and after a fuse failure, the code must be entered before
the vehicle can be used again.Enter code– If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the unit can be unlocked by entering the corr ect four-digit code number. The number
of the possible attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
– Press a digit from to on the digit block displayed on the screen. The digit is accepted in the entry line.
– After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (inactive) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
– Press on the screen in order to delete the digits in the entry line from right to left and thereby correct your input, if necessary.
– If the correct code number is displayed in the entry line, press .
Code number
The code number can only be called up “onl ine” via the Škoda system, as this guaran-
tees even more effective anti-theft protection. Please contact your authorized Škoda
Service Partner, if necessary.
Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entr y of the code, the procedure can be repeated
twice . The number of possible attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the third 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 the ig nition have been switched on.
If three invalid attempts are then made ag ain, the radio navigation system will be
blocked again for an hour.
The cycle - three attempts, blocked fo r an hour - will continue to apply.
Note
The code is normally stored in the instrument cluster. This ensures that it is automati-
cally decoded (convenience coding). Ma nual input of the code is normally not
necessary.

Operation when driving The demands of today's road traffic require fu ll concentration from all road users at all
times.
WARNING
•
Always concentrate fully on your driving. Inattention by the driver can lead
to accidents and injuries.
•
Do not allow yourself to be distracted by trying to use the unit, concentrate
instead on the traffic situation.
•
Use the unit only if road, weather and traffic conditions permit and you will
not be distracted.
•
The various volume settings must be selected in such a way that audible
signals from the outside, such as e.g. a Martins horn from police cars and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.Note
Depending on the country, some functions of the radio navigation system can no
longer be selected on the screen at certai n speeds. This is not a malfunction, but corre-
sponds to the legal requirements of this particular country.Special functionsPar king aid*
If your vehicle is equi pped with “parking aid” and after it is activated, the distance to
the obstacle is shown on the screen.
Climatronic*
If your vehicle is equipped with climatronic, a feedback is received on the screen when
changing the settings.
Personalisation
Your vehicle can be equipped with up to fo ur keys. Individual settings of the unit are
always assigned to the key, which is currentl y inserted in the ignition lock. In practice, this means that each time you use another ve
hicle key, the setting of the unit which is
assigned to the key is carried out.
Switching the system on and off– The system is switched on or of f by pressing the control button .
The last active audio source before switching off is repeated.
If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock while the unit is switched on, the unit will
switch off automatically. You can then switch the unit on again. If the ignition is
switched off, the system switches off automa tically after approx. half an hour (vehicle
battery protection against discharging). Th is process can be repeated as often as
necessary.General - operationThe screen of the unit is a so-called touch screen (touch-screen). Fields circled in
colour on the touch-screen are presently “a ctive” and are operated by touching the
screen. Active fields, which call up a function or a menu, are called “ function buttons”
/ .
