WARNING■ The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be
observed.■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle with-
out an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incor-
rectly, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the
vehicle.
■
Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed
on airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a telephone in the deployment area of an airbag, on a seat,
on the dash panel or in another area, from which it can be thrown during a
sudden braking manoeuvre, an accident or a collision - risk of injury. There
are storage compartments with lids and if necessary there is the multime-
dia storage compartments to hold this » Vehicle owner's manual , chap-
ter Practical equipment.
■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways a tele-
phone conversation can be interrupted and no telephone connection can be
established - not even in an emergency!■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is limited
to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles
between the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your tele-
phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when es-
tablishing a connection with the device or transferring data.
Note
Available updates for Bluetooth ®
devices as well as information about the
phone support can be obtained from the ŠKODA website www.infotain-
ment.skoda-auto.com .1)
With some phones, it is necessary to set the connection to the device as "authorised" in order for the
automatic connection to be successful. If this is not set, the system will prompt you for a confirmation
each time you attempt to connect to the telephone.
