CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
The car can be unlocked and locked
using button 1 and 2 in the door handle
even if the ignition is switched off (provided
the car is not locked from the outside).
The tailgate can be unlocked and loc-
ked using button 1 and 2 or the car key -
see chapter „Tailgate“ (Owner’s Manual).
If the central locking system fails, it is
only possible to unlock and lock the front
doors and the tailgate with the car key.
Opening a single door
This optional function enables you to un-
lock only the driver door. The other doors
remain locked and are not unlocked until a
further command is given (unlock). This
necessitates changing the coding of the
central locking control unit. This is an op-
eration which is carried out by your Škoda
dealer, who can provide you with more de-
tailed information on this facility.
- with the remote control.
Notes
When the car is unlocked, all the loc-
king knobs move up.
When the car is locked, the driver’s door
should be closed. The other doors can b e
closed also after the car has been locked.
When the car is locked, all the locking
knobs should move down. If this is not the
case, open the relevant door once again
and close it properly.
The indicator light in the driver door -
next to the locking button - flashes to con-
firm that the car has been correctly locked.
The indicator light does not flash if the Safe
lock has been deactivated - refer to p. 9.
This does not apply, however, to models
which are equipped with the anti-theft alarm
system* because the indicator lamp in this
case signals that the system is active.
Safe lockAfter the car has been locked from the out-
side, all the door locks are automatically
blocked. It is no longer possible to pull out
the inside locking knobs. The warning light
in the driver’s door flashes. It is not possi-
ble to open the doors either with the inside
or the outside handle. This acts as a deter-
rent to any attempt to break into the car.
The Safe lock can be deactivated. This
is done by locking the car twice with the key
or the remote control within 2 seconds.
If the Safe lock has been deactivated,
the indicator light next to the locking knob
in the driver’s door does not flash.
This does not apply to models which are
equipped with an anti-theft alarm system*
because the warning lamp signals that the
system is active.
The Safe lock is again operational once
the car has been unlocked and locked again.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
TailgateTo unlock and open the tailgate:
Insert key into the lock with the slot in the
vertical position, turn to the left and release.
Raise tailgate handle slightly and lift tail-
gate open. The handle is located between
the licence plate lights. The tailgate is held
in the top position by a gas strut.
To lock the tailgate:
Pull the tailgate down and close with a slight
swing.
Turn the key to the right and remove it from
the lock.
The tailgate is maintained in the top posi-
tion by a gas strut.
The tailgate is properly closed when the key
slot is vertical. Note
On models fitted with central locking sy-
stem* the tailgate is automatically unlocked
and locked together with the other locks.
On models fitted with anti-theft alarm sy-
stem* the tailgate can only be unlocked with
the remote control because the alarm is
triggered after it is unlocked with key.
Warning
Please observe the correct proce-
dure for unlocking and opening the
tailgate. If you unlock tailgate with
the key and at the same time raise the
handle, this can result in the open-
ing mechanism being blocked. A
blocked mechanism can be released
by leaving the handle and locking the
tailgate with the key. Please always
follow the correct procedure to avoid
damaging the opening mechanism.
After closing the tailgate, always
pull on the tailgate to check that it is
properly locked - the tailgate might
otherwise open suddenly when driv-
ing even if the lock has been prop-
erly closed.
Never drive with the tailgate slight-
ly ajar or even open otherwise the
exhaust gases will be drawn into the
car!
Do not press on the rear window
when closing the boot lid, it could
crack - risk of injury!
If you find that the slot of the key
is not vertical, an attempt has been
made to break into the car. We rec-
ommend checking the vehicle equip-
ment. Turn the slot of the key into the
vertical position to ensure that the
lock closes properly. As a check, lock
the car once and then unlock it. If it
is not possible to insert the key into
the lock, the lock has been damaged.
Have it repaired at a Škoda Dealer.

12CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
The remote control integrated in the key
can be used to operate the central locking
and the anti-theft warning system - see
pages 8 and 13.
The central locking and anti-theft warning
systems can be operated from a distance
of up to 10 metres. If the batteries have lost
power, the range of the remote control is
reduced.

mote control without folding key - refer to
the appropriate text.
Unlocking and locking carTo unlock the car, briefly press the button

To lock the car, briefly press the button
(item 1).
If the button (item 1) is pressed twice within
2 seconds when locking the car, the safe

Note
After pressing one of the two buttons, the
indicator light in the key flashes. If the light
does not flash, the batteries in the key
may be discharged . Have the batteries
checked at a Škoda dealer and replaced,
if necessary.
The remote control can be used to acti-
vate the anti-theft alarm system and to lock
the car or to deactivate the anti-theft alarm
system and to unlock the car. If the car is
unlocked without the doors being opened
(e.g. by pressing the button of the remote
control accidentally), the car is automati-
cally locked again after 30 seconds.
The Safe lock and the anti-theft alarm are
not operational during these 30 seconds,
however.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Synchronizing the car key codeIf it is no longer possible to unlock the car
using the remote control, the problem may
be that the codes of the key and the con-
trol unit in the car no longer agree. This can
happen if the buttons of the key are pres-
sed several times beyond the effective ran-
ge of the system or if the battery of the re-
mote control has been replaced.
For this reason, the code must be re-syn-
chronized by pressing any desired button
on the remote control. Open the door with
the key within one minute after pressing the
button.
Anti-theft alarm system*General notes

protection provided against attempts to
break into the car.

in the interior of the car or by an attempt to steal
the car radio. It is possible, in certain circum-
stances, that the rear area of the interior of the
car is not fully monitored.2)The characteristics of the visual and audible sig-
nal differ according to the country.

14CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTThe radio remote control can be used to
activate the anti-theft alarm system and to
lock the car, or to deactivate the anti-theft
alarm system and to unlock the car.Switching off interior motion sensorThe procedure for switching the interior mo-
tion sensor off and on is the same as for

le, to leave animals in the car.

Further information is available from
your Škoda Dealer.
The frequency coding of the remote con-
trol and the receiver means that it is not
possible to use the remote control of other
cars.
If the key and remote control are lost,
please contact your Škoda Dealer.
The power for the remote control is sup-
plied by batteries. If the anti-theft alarm
system does not react to the remote con-
trol until you are less than 3 metres from
the car or if the indicator light in the key
does not flash when the button is pressed,
the batteries have to be replaced. This is
best done at a Škoda Dealer.
