Component protection
Some electronic control units are factory-equipped with component protection.
The component protection was developed as a protection mechanism for: › impairment of factory- or garage-fitted control units after installation in another
vehicle (for example, after a theft);
› impairment of components operated outside of the vehicle;
› the possibility of a legitimate installation or change of control units for repairs
at a ŠKODA specialist garage.

■Name of station - Displays the station name
■ Variable - Scrolling display of a long station name Changing the station name
is not permitted.
■ Fixed - Fixed display of station name, a long station name is not fully dis-
played The station name is firmly fixed (suitable for the A-Z list).

Note
■
RDS (Radio Data System) is used to transmit programme IDs and additional
services, thus enabling automatic station tracking, for example. In the event of
sufficiently satisfactory reception, the suitable RDS radio stations will display the
station name instead of the station frequency.■
In countries where the RDS (Radio Data System) function is not adequately
supported, we recommend turning off the AF and RDS setting, otherwise they
can affect the functionality of the radio.
■
The AF (alternative frequency) function ensures that the best receivable fre-
quency of the selected station is automatically and precisely set.
