Using the display
Carefully handle the display because dents and scratches can occur through pres- sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects.
The display can be cleaned with a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away with pure alcohol.
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will corrode the displaysurface.Ð
Anti-theft protection
Anti-theft coding
Your radio is equipped with a convenience coding. If the radio is being operatedfor the first time, the safety code is not only stored in the radio but also in thevehicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, first of all switch on the igni- tion and then the radio.
If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be en- tered. In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a ŠKODA Service Partner or aŠKODA importer.
As the unit only functions after entering the safety code, this practically excludes its use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety.
Note
The code is stored in the instrument cluster. This ensures that it is automaticallydecoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is normally not necessa-ry.Ð
Enter code
›Switch on the radio if the ignition is on. SAFE is displayed and then 1000.›Enter the safety code using the function keys 1 - 4.›Confirm the safety code by pressing down on the function key 6.
If you have confirmed a wrongly entered code, you can repeat once again the en-tire process.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the second time, the unit will be blocked for approx. one hour. It is possible to enter again the safety code afterone hour has expired, when the unit and the ignition have been switched on.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - will continue to apply.Ð

3General information

Information on how to use a CD
CD to jump Uneven road surfaces and strong vibrations may cause the CD to jump.
Formation of condensation When it is cold and after rain showers, moisture can deposit in the CD drive (con-densation). This can effect the CD jump or impair the play function. In such caseswait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CDs If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD in the direction of a circle but ratherfrom inside to outside with a soft lint-free cloth. In case of severe layers of dirt werecommend to clean the CD with a commercially available CD cleaner. Also in thiscase do not clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather from inside to out-side and then let it dry off.
Overheating protection If the temperature in the unit exceeds 85°C, the play function of the CD is endedfor safety reasons.
CAUTION
■Never use liquids such as gasoline, paint thinner or disk cleaner, otherwise thesurface of the CD could get damaged! ■Never expose the CD to direct sun rays!■Please never write or affix the CD!
Note
Dirt or damage of a CD can lead to difficulties when “reading” the information. The difficulty in reading the error depends on the dirt or on the severity of themechanical damage. Severe scratches cause reading errors which can make theCD jump or “get stuck”. All CDs must be treated carefully and always be stored ina protective case.Ð
External sources
Input AUX ›The input for external audio sources AUX is located under the armrest of thefront seats.›Activate the AUX input by pressing the button MEDIA and by subsequentlypressing the function key AUX .
›External audio sources, which are connected to the AUX input, cannot beoperated via the radio.
It is possible to play back external audio sources via the loudspeakers of the radio in the vehicle.
You can select another audio source on the radio at any time. As long as the ex- ternal audio source is not switched off, it remains always active in the back-ground.
Please refer to the Owner's manual of the respective manufacturer for the opera- tion of the external audio source.
Adjust the play function volume of the external audio source The play function volume of the external audio source can be changed via the vol-ume control on the radio.
Depending on the connected audio source, the output volume on the external au- dio source can be changed.
You can also change the input sensitivity of the external audio source » page 4,AUX, in order for the play function volume of the external audio source to adapt to other audio sources or to avoid distortions of the play function volume.
Adapter A 3.5 mm jack plug is required to connect external audio sources via the AUXinput. If the external audio source does not have this jack plug, you must use anadapter.
We recommend that you purchase an adapter for connecting the USB devices, the devices with Mini USB output or an iPod, at an authorised ŠKODA Service Partner.
Conditions for proper connection›Only USB devices with the specification 2.0 can be connected.›The version of the file allocation table FAT (File Allocation Table) of the connec- ted device must be FAT16 ( <2 GB) or FAT32 (> 2 GB).›In order to replay from a unit with a hard disk (HDD) which includes a large datavolume, it can lead to a time delay when reading in the overview of the musicdata.›In order to replay from a unit, which includes a complicated folder structure, itcan lead to a time delay when reading in the overview of the music data.›The folder structure in the connected unit must not exceed a depth of 8 levels.One folder must not contain more than 1000 data.›A USB extension cable or USB distributor (HUB) must not be used to connectthe unit.
