user profile.
During the connecting procedure, no other mobile phone may be connected with the hands-free system.
Up to four mobile phones can be paired with the hands-free system, whereby on- ly one mobile phone can communicate with the hands-free system.
The visibility of the hands-free system is automatically switched off 3 minutes af-
ter the ignition is switched on and is also deactivated when the mobile phone has connected to the hands-free system.

On vehicles fitted with the Amundsen+ navigation system, this function can be accessed via the navi-
gation system menu; refer to the » operating instructions for the Amundsen+ navigation system .
2)
Depending on the Bluetooth®
version on the mobile phone, an automatically generated 6-digit PIN
(SSP) is either displayed, or the PIN 1234 has to be entered manually.
3)
Some mobile phones have a menu, in which the authorisation for establishing a Bluetooth ®
connec-

Dialogue – version 1Fig. 83
Multifunction steering wheel: Voice control
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 90.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice commands and to carry them out is called "dialogue". The system gives audible feedback and
guides you through the relevant functions if necessary.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors.
› Speak at a normal volume without intonation or excessive pauses.
› Avoid poor pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof in order to reduce or eliminate dis-
turbing noise from outside.
› It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that your voice is louder
than the increased surrounding noise.
› During the dialogue, limit background noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talk-
ing at the same time.
› Do not speak when the system is making an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is housed in the moulded headliner and directed
towards the driver and front passenger. Therefore, the driver and the front pas-
senger can operate the equipment.

Entering a phone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous sequence of numbers spo-
ken one after the other (the whole number at once) or in the form of digit blocks
(separated by short pauses). After each string of digits (separated by a brief pause
in speaking), all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0-9 and symbols +, , # are permitted. The system does not recognize
any combination of connected numbers, e.g. "twenty-three".
Switching on voice control
Briefly press the button 1
» Fig. 83 on the multifunction steering wheel.
Switching off voice control
If the system is currently playing a message, the message that is currently being
played must be terminated by briefly pressing button

» Fig. 83 on the multi-
function steering wheel.
If the system is expecting a voice command, you can end the dialogue yourself:

AUX input/MDI input
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 92.
Depending on the equipment, your vehicle may have AUX or MDI inputs (AUX and
USB) for connecting external audio sources.
The connected external audio sources (e.g. iPod or MP3 player) can then be used
for audio playback on your factory installed radio or radio-navigation system.
Extension cables to connect external sources are available from ŠKODA original
accessories.
For a description of use, refer to the operating instructions for the relevant radio or navigation system.
AUX input
The AUX input is located in one of the following places:
› Between the front seats in the centre console
» Fig. 87 - ;
› On the front of the Amundsen+ navigation system.
Multi-Device Interface (MDI) input
If vehicles are equipped with the MDI input, this will be located above the storage compartment in the front centre console » Fig. 87 -
.
External sources such as iPod ®
, iPad ®
or iPhone ®
connected to the MDI input can
be operated via your unit.
When the ignition is on and a device is connected via a connecting cable, the de-
vice battery is charged.

Power steering
97WARNING■ When driving, hold the steering wheel with both hands firmly on the outer
edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock position. Never hold the steering wheel in
the 12 o'clock position or in any other way (e.g. in the middle or inner edge of
the steering wheel). In such cases, you could severely injure the arms, hands
and head when the driver airbag is deployed.■
Never adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is moving only when the
vehicle is stationary!
WARNING (Continued)■ Adjust the steering wheel so that the distance A » Fig. 88 between the
steering wheel and your chest is at least 25 cm. Not maintaining this minimum
distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect
you - hazard!■
If the steering wheel is adjusted further towards the head, the protection
provided by the driver airbag in the event of an accident is reduced. Check
that the steering wheel is aligned to the chest.

First of all adjust the driver's seat » page 52.
›
Swivel the lever underneath the steering wheel downwards » Fig. 89.
›
Adjust the steering wheel to the desired position (with regard to the height and
forward/back position).
›
Push the lever upwards to the stop.
WARNINGThe lever for adjusting the steering wheel must be locked whilst driving so
that the steering wheel cannot accidentally change position during the jour-
ney – risk of accident!

Page 100 of 226
Power steeringFirst read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 96.
The power steering enables you to steer the vehicle with less physical force.
The power steering only works when the engine is running. It is still fully possible to steer the vehicle if the power steering fails or if the en-gine is not running (e.g. when towing). However, greater physical effort is re-
quired to turn the steering wheel.
Starting and stopping the engine

Switching off the engine
99
The engine can only be started using a correctly coded original key. The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time afterstarting the cold engine. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.
WARNING■ When driving without the engine running, the ignition key must always be in
the position 2 » Fig. 90 on page 98 (ignition switched on). This position is
indicated by the illumination of certain indicator lights in the instrument clus-
ter. ■ If the key is not in position 2
, this could lead to unexpected the steering
locking - risk of accident!
■
Only pull the ignition key from the ignition lock when the vehicle has come
to a complete stop (by applying the handbrake). Otherwise, the steering could
be blocked – risk of accident!
WARNING (Continued)■ When leaving the vehicle, the ignition must always be removed. This is par-
ticularly important if children are left in the vehicle. Children could otherwise
start the engine for example – risk of accident or injury!■
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running.
■
Never switch off the engine before the vehicle is stationary – risk of acci-
dent!
WARNING■ Never leave the engine running in unventilated or closed rooms. The ex-
haust gases from the engine contain substances such as odourless and col-
ourless carbon monoxide (a poisonous gas) – risk to life! ■ Carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness and death.
CAUTION
■The starter must only be operated when the engine is not running and the vehi-
cle is at a standstill. The starter or engine may be damaged if the starter is activa- ted when the engine is running 3
» Fig. 90 on page 98.
■
Do not tow start the engine – there is a risk of damaging the engine and the
catalytic converter. The battery from another vehicle can be used as a jump-start
aid » page 189 , Jump-starting .
CAUTION
■
Avoid high engine revolutions, full throttle and high engine loads before the en-
gine has reached its operating temperature – risk of damaging the engine!■
Do not switch the engine off immediately at the end of your journey after the
engine has been operated over a prolonged period at high loads but leave it to
run at an idling speed for about 1 minute. This prevents any possible accumulation
of heat when the engine is switched off.
For the sake of the environment
Do not warm up the engine while the vehicle is stationary. If possible, start your
journey as soon as the engine has started. Through this the engine reaches its
operating temperature more rapidly and the pollutant emissions are lower. 97Starting-off and Driving
