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.
Remote control*To unlock the car briefly press button
(pos. 1).
To lock the car briefly press button (pos. 2).
To open the key - press button (pos. 3).
To close the key - press button (pos. 3) and
fold the key together.
Note
The illustration shows the remote control
with the folding key. The functions of Un-
lock, Lock, etc. are the same as for the re-
mote control without folding key - refer to
the appropriate text.
Unlocking and locking carTo unlock the car, briefly press the button
(item 2).
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
lock and the interior motion sensor are
deactivated.
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
The anti-theft alarm system enhances the
protection provided against attempts to
break into the car.
The anti-theft alarm system monitors the
following parts of the car:
- Doors
- Tailgate
- Bonnet
- Ignition lock
- Interior of car
1).
- Voltage drop in electrical system.
The alarm is activated by:
Opening the doors
Opening the tailgate
Opening the bonnet
Switching on the ignition
Movements inside the car.
The alarm is recognizable from the visual
and audible signals2) (the flashing of the
turn signal lights and the noise of the si-
ren) for 30 seconds.
1)Alarm is triggered by the movement of persons
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.
If a further attempt is made to break into
the car after these 30 seconds, the alarm
is again activated.Operating the anti-theft alarm systemActivating alarm

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
switching off the Safe lock - see page 9.
This function makes it possible, for examp-
le, to leave animals in the car.
Switching off alarm
If the alarm has been triggered, press and
hold the Unlock button of the remote con-
trol for about one second in order to switch
off the alarm. The alarm is then switched
off and the car is unlocked. You can also
switch off the alarm by unlocking the car
with the key and the switching the ignition

vated by once again pressing the button
(lock car).
General notes The life of the siren source is 5 years.
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.

22CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTMemory for driver’s seatThe memory of your driver’s seat offers the
possibility of storing your own individual
settings for the seat and exterior mirrors. It
is possible to store the individual settings
for up to three drivers in each case using
the memory button D. If another person
drives the car, it is then only necessary to
press button D for the seat and exterior
mirrors to be set automatically to the indi-
vidually programmed position. Memory button
D can be used to store and
retrieve the
- individual settings of the driver’s seat,
- Storing and retrieving exterior mirror settings (on left and right) for driving
forward , or exterior mirror setting (on
right) for reversing.
In addition, you can use the keys of the
remote control* to retrieve the stored set-
tings of a memory button.
The memory system can be switched off at
any time with the lock switch E. The seat
and the exterior mirrors can then only be
adjusted manually.
Storing seat and mirror settings for
driving forward Switch the ignition on.
Adjust the seat - see pages 20 and 21.
Adjust both exterior mirrors - see page
16.
Press one of the memory buttons D and
hold the button for about three seconds until
an audible signal confirms that the settings
have been stored.
The settings are then stored under the
memory button selected.
Storing exterior mirror setting for
reversing* Switch the ignition on.
Switch over operation of the exterior
mirror to position R.
Shift into reverse gear.
Position the exterior mirror on the right
into the desired setting - refer to p. 17.
Press one of the memory buttons D and
hold the button for about three seconds until
an audible signal confirms that the setting
has been stored.
The settings are stored under the selected
memory button.
Notes
We recommend beginning with the left-
hand button for the memory assignment
and allocating a memory button to each
additional driver.
Each new setting which is stored with the
same button cancels the previous setting.
Each time new settings are stored for the
seat and mirrors for driving forward, it is
also necessary to re-store the individual
setting of the right-hand exterior mirror for
reversing.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Assigning remote control keys* to
the memory buttonsIf you wish to be able to retrieve the set-
tings stored in the memory using the remote
control key, you must assign the keys to a
particular memory button.
We recommend assigning one of the two
factory-supplied remote control keys to the
left-hand memory button and the other keys
to the middle button.
You can obtain an additional remote con-
trol key, if necessary, from your Škoda Dea-
ler and then assign it to the right-hand
memory button.Carry out the following procedure
to assign the remote control keys:After storing the settings of the driver’s seat
and mirrors, you have 10 seconds to as-
sign the remote control key to the corre-
sponding memory.
Withdraw the remote control key from
the ignition lock for this purpose.
Press the opening button of the remote
control key - see page 12 and hold the but-
ton for about one second until an audible
signal confirms the assignment has been
made.
The setting is stored under the memory
button you selected.
Notes
If the remote control key has already
been assigned to another memory button,
the „old“ assignment is cancelled.
If the remote control key is assigned to
a memory button which has already been
assigned to another key, the „old“ assign-
ment is also cancelled in this case.
The assignment of a remote control key
to a memory button is retained even if you
store new seat and mirror settings with this
button.
Retrieving seat and mirror settings
for driving forwardYou can retrieve the stored settings by us-
ing the memory buttons D as well as the
remote control*.
Retrieving with the memory buttons
For safety reasons, you are able to retrie-
ve the seat and memory settings only if the
ignition is switched off . You have two
possibilities for retrieving the settings in this
case:
„One-touch automatic memory“: With the
driver door opened, briefly press on the
desired memory button D. The seat and
exterior mirrors now move automatically
into the stored position.
