Before the next service interval is reached, a message concerning the kilometres
and days remaining until the next service is due is shown for about 10 seconds
after the ignition is switched on. Alternatively, this information can be displayed
manually at any time if required.
The kilometre indicator or the days indicator reduces in steps of 100 km or, where
applicable, days until the service due date is reached.
Note
■ Information is retained in the Service Interval Display even after the vehicle bat-
tery is disconnected.■
If the instrument cluster is exchanged after a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by a specialist garage.

Your car is equipped with a central locking system.
The central locking system allows you to lock and unlock all doors, the fuel filler
flap 1)
and tailgate at the same time.
The safe securing system » page 33 is integrated in the central locking system.
Once the car is locked from the outside, the door locks are automatically blocked
by the safe securing system »
.
The following is true after unlocking
› The doors, the boot lid and the fuel filler flap 1)
are unlocked.
› The interior light, which is switched by the door contact, comes on.
› The safe securing system is switched off.
› The indicator light in the driver door stops flashing.
› The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated 2)

.
Displaying an error
If the indicator light in the driver's door initially flashes quickly for around 2 sec-
onds, and then lights up for 30 seconds without interruption before flashing
again slowly, you will need to seek the assistance of a specialist garage.WARNING■ If 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!■
Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into the vehicle from outside, for ex-
ample at road crossings.
Note
■ In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehi- cle.■
Only the driver's door can be unlocked or locked using the key if the central
locking system fails » page 32. The other doors and the tailgate can be emer-
gency locked or emergency released. ■ Emergency locking of the door » page 194.
■ Emergency unlocking of the boot lid » page 194.

Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next 30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the safelock system or anti-
theft alarm system will be switched on. This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally.
Locking
The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Checking the battery condition
If the red indicator light
B
» Fig. 13 does not flash when you press a button on
the remote control key, the battery is empty. Replace the battery » page 193.
ABCAUTION■
Only operate the remote control when the doors and boot lid are closed and the
vehicle is in your line of sight.■
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
key.
■
Operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal interfer-
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
Note
For vehicles with an anti-theft alarm system, the acoustic signals can also be acti-
vated/deactivated when locking/unlocking at a ŠKODA partner
Safe securing system
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 31.
The door locks are blocked automatically if the vehicle is locked from the outside.
Afterwards, it is not possible to open the doors with the door handle either from
the inside or from the outside.
This fact is pointed out by the following message on the display of the instrument
cluster after switching off the ignition.
Check deadlock! Owner's manual!CHECK SAFELOCK
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.
Switching off
The safelock can be switched off by locking twice within 2 seconds.
Switching on
The safelock switches on automatically the next time the vehicle is locked and
unlocked.
Switch-on display
The warning light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it
begins to flash evenly at longer intervals.

Switch-off display
The indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out
and starts to flash at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must re- main 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!
Note
This function only applies to certain countries.
Individual settings
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 31.
Opening a single door
This function makes it possible to only unlock the driver's door. The other doors
remain locked and are only unlocked when the command is repeated.
Automatic locking/unlocking
All doors are locked from a speed of around 15 km/h. The button in the handle of
the boot lid is deactivated.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked again. In addition, it is possible for the driver or front passenger to unlock the car by press- ing the central locking button
.
The vehicle doors can be unlocked and opened at any time by pulling once on the door opening lever.
Note
Individual settings can be carried out in a specialist workshop.

Unless otherwise stated, the lights only work when the ignition is switched on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering, the position of some of the controls
differs from that shown in » Fig. 21 on page 41. The symbols which mark the po-
sitions of the controls are identical.
WARNING■ The activation of the lights should only be undertaken in accordance with
national legal requirements.■
The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the
lights.
■
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other oncoming traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is dark or if visibility is poor.
NoteThe headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched on,
the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although the
headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist has no
influence on the life of the lighting system.

Switching the cooling system on/off

The Climatronic in automatic mode ensures the best-possible setting of the tem-
perature of the outflowing air, the blower stage and air distribution.
The system also takes sunlight into account, which eliminates the need to alterthe settings manually.
The cooling system only operates if the following conditions are met. The cooling system is switched on » page 82, Control elements .
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above approx. +2 °C.
The cooling system is switched off at excessive coolant temperatures in order to guarantee a cooling effect when the engine is under a high load.
Note
We recommend that you have Climatronic cleaned by a specialist garage once ev-
ery year.Control elementsFig. 80

The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +29 ℃. The interior tem-
perature is regulated automatically within this range.
If you select the temperature below +18 ℃, “LO” appears in the display.
If you select a temperature higher than +29 ℃, “HI” appears in the display.
In both limit positions the Climatronic operates at maximum cooling or heating
capacity, respectively. The temperature is not automatically regulated in this case.
CAUTION
Lengthy and uneven distribution of the air flow out of the vents (especially
around the feet) and large differences in temperature, for example, when getting
out of the vehicle, can cause susceptible individuals to catch a cold.
recirculated air mode
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 82.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting into
the vehicle, e.g. when driving through a tunnel or in a traffic jam.
