Important notes
Introduction to the subject
WARNING■Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Only use the device in such a way that you have control of the vehicle in
every traffic situation (e.g. Do not write text messages while driving, do not
couple or connect the telephone, do not work with the contact list, do not
enter any destinations, do not connect WLAN or SmartLink etc.)- Otherwise
there is a risk of an accident!
WARNING■ Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside the vehi-
cle, e.g. sirens from emerging vehicles instructing you to give way to, such
as the police, ambulance and fire brigade, can be heard at all times.■
High volumes can cause hearing damage.
WARNING■ Never leave a communication device, e.g. mobile phone, audio sources, in
the deployment area of an airbag, on a seat, on the dashboard or any an-
other area, from which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeu-
vre, an accident or a collision - There is a risk of injury!■
Never connect or disconnect an external device while driving - There is a
risk of accident!
■
Always route the connection cable of the external device such that is
does not restrict you when driving.
CAUTION
In some countries, some unit features can no longer be selected when the ve-
hicle is running faster than a certain speed. This is not a malfunction, but com-
plies with the national legal regulations.External devices and applicationsFig. 1
QR code with reference to the
ŠKODA websites
The availability of some of the functions described in this Owner's Manual
depends on the type of device to be connected and the applications installed
in it.
Mobile phones
On the ŠKODApages, check to see if the device is compatible with the selected
mobile phones. This verification is done by reading the QR code » Fig. 1 by the
associated application in the external device (e.g. phone, tablet) or after typing
the following address into the web browser.
http://go.skoda.eu/compatibility
Due to the large number of mobile phones as well as the ongoing develop-
ment of these devices, ŠKODA AUTO cannot always ensure compatibility with
the device unconditionally. It is always recommended to physically check the
function on the associated vehicle, including the ŠKODA Partners, beforehand.
Only those versions of the selected phones will be tested and supported which
originate from the official distribution network. The same also applies to their
firmware and software.
The functions of the mobile phone to be tested may differ from the same type
of mobile phone depending on the specification for the respective country or
the specific service.
Mobile phones with the operating system and in the version available at the
time of these tests will be tested. In this regard, it could be the case that the
functions of a mobile phone may differ with a different operating system ver-
sion compared to the one used with the tested phone.
ŠKODA AUTO can accept no responsibility for the continuous changes made by
the mobile phone manufacturers and application vendors.
6Introductory information
Page 9 of 100
ŠKODA AUTO does not accept any liability for any damage to the device or ve-
hicle due to the use of incorrect or illegal applications or the improper or unau-
thorized use of mobile phones.
Applications
Applications can be installed in external devices (e.g. Mobile, tablet) making it
possible to display additional information in the device screen or to operate
the device.
Due to the large number of applications and communication systems (e.g..
SmartLink » page 54) As well as the ongoing development of these devices,
the applications may not be functional in all external devices. ŠKODA AUTO can
accept no liability for their proper function.
Applications, their use and the required data connection may be chargeable.
The range of available applications and their functionality is dependent on the
device, vehicle and region.
The function of mobile applications can be influenced by the quality of the In-
ternet connection.
Some applications are dependent on the availability of services that are provi-
ded by third parties.Device overview

Introductory information
Introduction to the subject
This chapter deals with the operation of a device with the telephone connec- ted via Bluetooth ®
as well as the use of the SIM-card in the external module.
Depending on the Bluetooth ®
-profile used it is possible to connect to a tele-
phone or two phones simultaneously to the device.
The SIM card in the external module can be used for data and telephone serv-
ices (applies to Columbus).
If telephones are connected to the device with multiple SIM cards, then calls
can be accepted by all SIM cards of the connected telephones.
For outgoing calls, it depends on the type of connected telephone, either only
the primary SIM card or one of the other SIM cards can be selected.
The device makes it possible to choose if you want to work with text messag-
es on the main phone (if supported by phone), or work with text messages in-
serted in the external module.
If the device to is connected to an external device via Apple CarPlay ™
, then the
use of the Bluetooth ®
Connection is not possible and the phone menu is not
available. A possible data connection via the SIM card remains operational
» page 53 .
If the device is connected to an external device via Android Auto ™
then the
connected phones and the Bluetooth ®
player are automatically disconnected
by connecting to external device and it connects to the device via Bluetooth ®
.
Connecting an additional telephone and the use of telephone services on the
SIM card via Android Auto ™
is not possible over the duration of the connection.
If the Bluetooth ®
Feature was not turned on in external device to be connec-
ted, it will be automatically switched on usingAndroid Auto ™
switched when
setting up the connection. A possible data connection via the SIM card remains
operational » page 53.
Phonebox
The storage compartment in the front centre console can be equipped with
the Phonebox function » Owner's Manual .
If a telephone is directed, with its rear side downwards, on the pad in the stor-
age compartment, the phone signal is amplified by the roof antenna.
Telephones that support the Qi standard for wireless charging, can also be charged wirelessly in the storage compartment.WARNINGThe general binding country-specific regulations for operating mobile
phones in the vehicle must be observed.WARNINGWhile wireless charging is taking place, no objects may be between the pad
and the telephone being charged.■
Metal objects can become hot due to the action of the induction field -
There is a risk of injury. If there is a metal object in the storage compart-
ment that has become hot, then take out the telephone and let the object
cool in the storage compartment!
CAUTION
While wireless charging is taking place, there may be noobjects between the
pad and the telephone being charged - thePhoneboxFunction could be im-
paired.■
With cards with a magnetic strip or chip, SD card, USB flash drives and similar
devices, there is a risk of data loss and damage to the disk.
■
Metal objects can become hot due to the action of the induction field - there
is a risk of damage to the telephone.
Note
■ At the start of the wireless charging, the appropriate message appears on
the device screen.■
For optimum telephone signal strength and uninterrupted wireless charging,
we recommend placing the phone in the storage compartment without the
protective sleeve, if possible.

Pair and connect
Introduction to the subject
The range of the connection to the hands-free system is limited to the passen-
ger compartment.
To connect a telephone with the device, the two devices must be paired via
Bluetooth ®
.
The pairing procedure is dependent on the number of telephones already con-
nected, whether using the SIM card inserted in the external module or via the
telephone using the rSAP profile » page 40, Possible connection types .
42Phone
Page 45 of 100
Up to 20 external devices can be paired with the device. After reaching the
maximum number, the pairing of the next external device will replace that of
the device that has not been used for the longest period of time.
A connection with a telephone that is already paired does not require coupling. It is enough to find the telephone that has been coupled in the list of coupled
phones and make the connection.WARNINGPair and connect a telephone to the device only when the vehicle is at a
standstill - there is risk of accident!
conditions for coupling
Fig. 38
QR code with reference to the
ŠKODA websites
The telephone can be coupled with the device under the following conditions.
The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function of the device and the telephone is switched on.
The visibility of the device and the telephone is switched on.
The telephone is within range of the Bluetooth ®
signal of the device.
