The brief instructionBasic functions and im portant informationIntroduction
The chapter of the brief instruction is only used as a quick reference of
the most important operating elements of the vehicle. It is necessary to
observe all the information which is contained in the following chapters
of the Owner's Manual.Unlocking and locking the vehicle Unlocking the vehicle
Unlocking the boot lid
Locking the vehicle
Folding out/folding up of the key
Further information page 43, “Unlocking and locking the vehicle”.
Setting steering wheel positionFig. 3 Adjustable steering wheel: Lever on the steering column / the correct distance of the

Further information page 107, “Setting steering wheel position”.
WARNING

Adjust the steering wheel so that the distance between the steering wheel
and your chest is at least 25 cm fig. 3 - right. Not maintaining this minimum
distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect
you - hazard!

You must not adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is moving!

For safety reasons the lever must always be firmly pushed up to avoid the
steering wheel altering its position uni ntentionally when driving - risk of

come to a stop. The steerin g lock might otherwise enga ge unintentionally - risk
of accident!Caution

Each key contains electronic components; therefore protect them against moisture
and severe shocks.

Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean as impurities (textile fibres, dust etc.)
have a negative effect on the proper operation of the locking cylinder and the ignition
lock.
Note
Please approach an authorised Škoda Servic e Partner if you lose a key since he can
obtain a new one for you.Changing the battery of the radio remote controlFig. 23 Remote control key - remove cover / remove batteryEach remote control key contains a batt ery which is housed under the cover


Pay attention to the correct pola rity when changing the battery.

The replacement battery must have the same specification as the original battery.

If it is still not be possible to unlock or lock the vehicle with the remote control even
after replacing the battery this means that the system has to be synchronised
 page 44.
Electronic immobiliserThe electronic immobiliser prevents the vehicle being operated by an
unauthorised person.An electronic chip is integrated in the head of the key. The immobiliser is deactivated
with the aid of this chip when the key is in serted in the ignition lock. The electronic
immobiliser is automatically activated when you withdraw the ignition key from the
lock.
Note
It is only possible to start the engine of your car with a Genuine Škoda key with the
matching code.Child safety lockThe child safety lock prevents the re ar door from being opened from the
inside.
The rear doors are equipped with a child safe ty lock. You can switch the child safety
lock on and off using the vehicle key.Switching child safety lock on– Use the vehicle key to turn the slit in the rear door to the left in the direction of the arrow fig. 24 .Switching child safety lock off– Use the vehicle key to turn the slit to the right against the direction of the arrow.
So long as the child safety lock is switched on it is not possible to open the door from
the inside with the door opening lever. In this case the door can be opened only from
the outside.Central locking systemDescriptionUnlocking or locking causes all the doors and the fuel filler flap* to be unlocked or
locked at the same time by the central locking system (as long as it is not set differently
in the menu Setup - Convenience information display*). The boot lid is unlocked
when opening. It can be opened by pressi ng the hand grip above the licence plate
 page 42.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:
from the outside using the vehicle key page 40,


After closing the boot lid, it is automatically locked within 2 seconds and the
anti-theft alarm system* is activated. This applies only if the vehicle was locked
before closing the boot lid.

The function of the hand grip above the li cence plate is deactivated when starting
off or as of a speed of more than 5 km/hour for vehicles with central locking. The func-
tion of the hand grip is activated again when the vehicle has stopped and a door is
opened.
Emergency unlocking of the boot lid (Octavia)If there is a fault in the central locking, you can open the boot lid as follows:

Emergency unlocking of the boot lid (Combi)If there is a fault in the central lockin g, you can open the boot lid as follows:
– Fold the seat backrest forwards page 72.
– Open up the cover of the lock upwards fig. 30 .
– Move the operating lever with the aid of a narrow object e.g. screwdriver up to

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
key is approx. 10 m. But this range 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. If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver 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 possible
to again use the remote control.
Note

The remote control is automatically deacti vated when the ignition is switched on.

The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
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 vehi cle cannot be locked using the remote
control.

not closed, the turn signal lights flash only after closing.
WARNING
If 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 not possible to
open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more
difficult for rescuers to get into th e vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note

Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are closed and
you have visual contact with the vehicle.

Once in the car, you must not press the lock button

 of the radio remote control.
Syncronisation of the remote controlIf the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuatin g the remote control system then it is
possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle are no longer
synchronised. This can occur when the button s on the radio-operated key are actuated
a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or the battery on
the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
Press any button on the remote control.

pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1
minute.
Anti-theft alarm system*DescriptionThe anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seeking to
break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning signals if an
attempt is made to break into the vehicle.
How is the alarm system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated au tomatically when the vehicle is locked with
the key on the driver's door or by using th e radio remote control. It is activated 30
seconds after locking the door.
How is the alarm system deactivated?
The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if the vehicle is unlocked by only using the
radio remote control. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle is not
opened within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal.

Ice accumulating on the surface of the wi ndows during the winter may result in a
greater resistance when closing the windows and the window may stop and go down
several centimetres
It is necessary to put the force limiter out of operation in order to close the window
 page 47, “Force limiter of the power windows”.
