General information
Owner's Manual This Owner's manual describes
all possible equipment variants without identify-
ing them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in this Owner's manual.
The scope of equipment for your vehicle is described in the sales documentation
you were given when purchasing the car. For more information, contact your local
ŠKODA retailer. Ð

Important information Safety information WARNING
● Concentrate fully at all times on your steering! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Only use the system so that you are in full control
of your vehicle in every traffic situation - risk of accident!
● Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside, e.g. sirens
from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police, ambulance and fire
brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.
● High volumes can cause hearing damage.
● For safety further information see ⇒ page 18 , Safety instructions for the
operation of the navigation system. ÐWarranty The equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles.
After the expiration of the warranty, a piece of equipment in need of repair can be
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, howev-
er, a precondition that the housing has not been damaged and no unauthorised
attempts have been made to carry out repairs. Note
The warranty does not relate to:
● Damage and defects due to improper handling of the equipment,
● Damage and defects from unprofessional repair attempts,
● Devices with damage to the exterior. Ð
Cleaning the display CAUTION
● Do not use solvents such as turpentine or petrol as they may corrode the dis-
play surface.
● Carefully handle the display because dents and scratches can occur through
pressure of the finger or contact with sharp objects. Note
The display can be cleaned with a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away
with pure alcohol. Ð
Signal receipt Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio and GPS signal
even causing it to fail completely.

General information

Anti-theft protection
The anti-theft coding of your radio navigation system prevents an operation of
the system after a voltage interruption, e.g. during a vehicle repair or after theft.
After disconnecting the battery, disconnecting the radio navigation system from
the on-board voltage of the vehicle or after a fuse failure, the code must be en-
tered before the system can be used again. The code number can only be called
up
“online” via the ŠKODA system, as this guarantees even more effective anti-
theft protection. Please contact your authorized ŠKODA Service Partner, if neces-
sary.
Enter code
If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the
unit must be unlocked by entering the correct four-digit code.
– Enter the four-digit code using the function keys 0 to
9 . The digit is accepted
in the entry line.
After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (inac-
tive) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
– To delete the numbers in the entry line from right to left, press the function
key Delete .
– If the correct code is displayed in the entry line, press the function key OK .
Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry of the code, the procedure can be re-
peated twice . The number of possible attempts is shown in the bottom display
line.
If the code is entered incorrectly for the third time, the unit will be blocked for ap-
prox. one hour. It is not possible to enter the safety code again until after one
hour, while the unit and the ignition were switched on.
If three invalid attempts are then made again, the radio navigation system will be
blocked again for an hour. Note
The code is normally saved in the instrument cluster memory. This ensures that it
is automatically decoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is nor-
mally not necessary. ÐSpecial functions Parking aid
If your vehicle is equipped with a
“parking aid” and after it is activated, the dis-
tance to the obstacle is shown in the display.
Climatronic
If you vehicle is equipped with Climatronic, information from Climatronic is shown
in the display.
Personalisation
Your vehicle can be equipped with up to four keys. Individual settings of the navi-
gation system area always assigned to the key currently in use. Up to 4 different
setting variants can be stored for the navigation system. When using the key for
the first time, the factory setting on the navigation system is valid. Ð4
