the symbol
as well as a message about the mileage or days until the next
service event appears in the display.
Messages upon reaching scheduled service date
Once the service interval is reached, the symbol
appears in the display after

Resetting the service interval display
We recommend that the display reset is completed by a specialist garage.
We recommend that you do not reset the service interval display yourself. In-
correctly setting the service interval display could cause problems to the vehi-
cle.
Variable service interval
For vehicles with variable service intervals, after resetting the oil change serv-
ice display in a specialist garage, the values of the new service interval are dis-
played, which are based on the previous operating conditions of the vehicle.
These values are then continuously matched according to the actual operating
conditions of the vehicle.
SmartGate
Introduction to the subject

Information about SmartGate on
the ŠKODA websites
48Using the system
Page 51 of 324
SmartGate is a system that transmits certain driving data (such as fuel con-
sumption, speed or similar) via Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct.
The ŠKODA applications installed in a supported external device (e.g. tele-
phone, tablet) give the option to further transmit the received data.
Some ŠKODA applications can be displayed on the Infotainment screen using a
SmartLinkconnection » page 165.
Read in the QR code » Fig. 30 or enter the following address in the web brows-
er to open the website with an overview of the available applications, compati-
ble devices and other information about SmartGate.
http://go.skoda.eu/connectivity-smartgate
CAUTION
■ To increase the access security to the transmitted vehicle data, once the
ŠKODA application has been started, you are requested to change the pass-
word/PIN code if the default password/PIN code has not yet been changed
» page 50 . It is not possible to start the ŠKODA application without changing
it.■
ŠKODA accepts no responsibility for any problems caused by incompatibility
or improper functioning of the external devices.

If the boot lid is closed after locking the vehicle and the key with which the
vehicle was locked remains in the luggage compartment, the lid is automatical-
ly unlatched (partially opened). After automatically unlocking, the turn signal
lights will flash four times. The boot lid remains unlatched (partially opened);
the other doors remain locked.
CAUTION
Some types of gloves can affect the unlocking or locking device via the sen-
sors in the door handle.

Conditions for the locking/unlocking using the central locking button.
The vehicle is not locked from the outside.
None of the doors are open.
›
To lock , press the button
» Fig. 34 .
Locking is displayed in the button by the illumination of the
symbol.
The following applies after locking. ▶ Opening the doors and the boot lid from the outside is not possible.
▶ The doors can be unlocked and opened from the inside by a single pull on the
opening lever of the respective door.
WARNINGDoors locked from the inside make it difficult for rescuers to get into the
vehicle in an emergency – danger to life!SafeLock
Read and observe
and on page 51 first.
SafeLock prevents the doors from behind opened from inside as well as win-dow operation. This makes an attempted break-in to the vehicle more difficult.
Activating
SafeLock is activated when the vehicle is locked from the outside.
This function is pointed out by the following message on the display of the in-
strument cluster after the ignition is switched off.
Check SAFE lock! Log book!CHECK SAFELOCK
Activation display
When SafeLock is activated the warning light in the driver's door flashes for 2
seconds in rapid succession, then starts to flash at longer intervals.
Switching off ▶ By locking twice within 2 seconds.
▶ or: by deactivating the interior monitor and the towing protection
» page 56 .
The warning light in the driver door flashes rapidly for about 2 seconds, then
goes out and starts to flash at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is switched off, the door
can be opened separately from the inside by a single pull on opening lever.
The SafeLock switches on the next time the vehicle is locked.
WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must
remain in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or
open a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!

If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 sec-
onds, the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down
by several centimetres.
If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window be-
ing moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet
been removed, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not
possible to automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched
on.
The force limiter is only not operational if you attempt to close the window
again within the next 10 seconds – the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.
