General information
Operating instructions
Please read this Amundsen+ navigation system (from here on referred to only as device) Owner's Manual carefully, because operation in accordance with these instructions is a prerequisite for proper use of the unit.
These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without
identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent
equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in these operating instructions.
The level of equipment of your vehicle refers to your purchase contract of the ve- hicle. More information is available from the ŠKODA Partner 1)
where you bought
the vehicle.
Please note that these instructions are meant only as an addendum to the infor-
mation presented in the Vehicle Manual for your vehicle. Therefore, they can be
used only in conjunction with the latest manual for this vehicle. For a detailed de-
scription of some functions listed in these instructions, see the Vehicle Manual.
If you have any questions about your unit, please contact a ŠKODA Partner. The illustrations can differ in minor details from your device; they are only inten-
ded for general information.

Important information
Safety information
The device should only be used when traffic conditions permit safe use.
WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.■
Only use the device so that you are in full control of your vehicle in every
traffic situation – there is the risk of accidents!
■
Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside the vehicle,
e.g. sirens from vehicles to give way to, such as the police, ambulance and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.
■
High volumes can cause hearing damage.

Screen cleaning
CAUTION
■ Do not use solvents such as benzine or turpentine, which may damage the
screen surface.■
Treat the screen with care, as finger pressure or contact with sharp objects may
cause dents and scratches on the surface.
Note
The screen can be cleaned with a soft cloth and alcohol if necessary.
Signal receipt
Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio and GPS sig-
nal even causing it to fail completely.

Anti-theft protection
The anti-theft coding of your device prevents operation of the system after a voltage interruption, e.g. during a vehicle repair or following theft. After discon-
necting the battery, disconnecting the radio navigation system from the on-board voltage of the vehicle or after a fuse failure, the code must be entered before the 

2General information

system can be used again. The code number can only be retrieved “online” via theŠKODA system, as this guarantees even more effective anti-theft protection. Visita specialist garage 1)
if necessary.
Enter code
If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the unit must be unlocked by entering the correct four-digit code.›
Enter the four-digit code using the function keys 0 to 9. The digit is accepted
in the entry line.
After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (inac- tive) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
›
To delete the digits in the entry line from right to left, press the function key Delete.
›
When the correct code is displayed in the entry line, press the function key OK.
Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry of the code, the procedure can be re- peated twice. The number of attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
If the code is entered incorrectly for the third time, the unit will be blocked for ap-
prox. one hour. It is not possible to enter the safety code again until after one
hour, while the unit and the ignition were switched on.
If three invalid attempts are then made again, the radio navigation system will be
blocked again for an hour.
Note
The code is normally saved in the instrument cluster memory. This ensures that
the device is automatically decoded (convenience decoding). Manual input of the
code is normally not necessary.
Screen display
The screen of the unit displays information such as information from the Clima-
tronic, the vehicle distance to an obstacle if the “parking aid” has been activated, etc.
Personalisation
Your vehicle can be equipped with up to four keys. Individual settings of the de-
vice are always assigned to the key currently in use. Up to 4 different setting var-
iants can be stored for the device. When using the key for the first time, the fac- tory setting for the device is valid.1)

NAV mode (Navigation)
Introductory information
The route is recalculated each time if you ignore driving recommendations or
change the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommenda-
tions can only then be re-transmitted.
In regions that are not or only partially digitised and are therefore not included in the navigation data, the device will continue to try to provide guidance to the
destination. It should be noted that under these circumstances the guidance to
the destination may not be completely correct if, for example, one-way streets
and road categories (motorway, country road, etc.) are not or only partially inclu-
ded in the navigation data used.
When entering an address (city, street), only those letters or symbols which make up a logical entry will be presented. A list of possible names will be shown. Do not
forget to enter the blank space in names made up of more than one word, such
as High Wycombe.
The last voice output can be repeated by pressing the menu button
15
. The vol-
ume can be changed while you listen to the travel recommendation.
The GPS satellites will not be able to reach the aerial once you are in a tunnel or
underground garage. In these cases, the unit uses only the vehicle's sensors and
an internal gyroscope for navigation.
WARNING■ Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving! Driver inattention can
lead to accidents and injuries. As the driver you are fully responsible for road
safety. Only use the functions of the device in such a way that you are always
in full control of your vehicle in all traffic situations!■
The following must always have priority over the driving recommendations: ■ the road traffic legislation, even if the driving recommendations contradict
the StVO,
■ the actual acknowledgement of traffic signs, light signals or signs placed
by the police at the relevant location,
■ the facts and circumstances prevailing at the relevant location.
■
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
WARNING (Continued)■Traffic signs and traffic regulations always have priority over the driving rec-
ommendations provided by the navigation system.■
Route guidance is subject to constant changes, particularly to information
relating to one-way streets, pedestrian zones etc. stored in the navigation da-
ta. Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stop-
ping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not tak-
en into account by the device.
■
Always adjust the driving speed to the road, traffic and weather conditions.
Do not let the device to tempt you to drive too fast in the fog, for example –
risk of accident!
■
The device and its various functions should only be used when traffic condi-
tions permit safe use.
■
The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situations,
e.g. due to road works or out of date navigation data. In such a case, always
observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommendations.
■
Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside the vehicle,
e.g. sirens from vehicles to give way to, such as the police, ambulance and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.
Note
■ It is not necessary to enter the destinations (country, city, road, point of interest
names) including all country-specific (or language-specific for points of interest)
special characters.■
Depending on the country, some functions of the device can no longer be selec-
ted on the screen at certain speeds. This is not a malfunction, but corresponds to
the legal requirements of the particular country.

card is assigned to your device and cannot be used with a different device. 
17NAV mode (Navigation)

■Use SD - Using the navigation data directly from the SD memory card. If you
want to use navigation data from other regions that differs from the data stor- ed in the memory of the device, you can also use data directly from the SD
memory card for guidance. This means you have two different sets of naviga-
tion data at your disposal. It is not necessary therefore to copy the navigation data from the SD memory card to the memory of the radio navigation system.
■ Install
- Copies the navigation data from the SD memory card to the internal de-
vice memory. The “old” navigation data in the internal device memory is deleted.
Data cannot be recovered once deleted »
.
No navigation data is available during copying. The copy process takes around 2
hours.
Do not remove the SD memory card during the process of copying data from the
SD memory card to the internal memory of the radio navigation system! You can
damage the memory card!
Manual copying
If you insert the SD memory card with valid navigation data but the copy process
does not start automatically, you can start it manually.
Press the button NAV

→ SETUP.
■ Navigation data basis
- displays the options for the navigation data
■ Install/use SD data - installs/uses the navigation data from the SD memory card
CAUTION
If the navigation data in the internal device memory is overwritten by a different
version, this data cannot be restored !
Note
You can obtain an SD memory card with the latest navigation data or with data
for other countries from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
