Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
After the car is locked with the deactivated safe securing system, the indi-
cator light flashes only after 30 seconds.
Indicator light in the driver's door on vehicles with anti-theft alarm
system
After locking the vehicle the indicator light flashes for 2 seconds fast, then
more slowly.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system
⇒page 43 is not
operating, the indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds
fast, goes out and starts to flash slowly after about 30 seconds.
If the indicator light first of all flashes fast for about 2 seconds, afterwards
lights up for about 30 seconds and then flashes slowly, there is a fault in
the system of the central locking or the interior monitor* ⇒page 50.
Contact a specialist garage to obtain assistance.
Convenience operation of windows
One can open and close the electrically powered windows when unlocking
and locking the vehicle ⇒page 53, “Window convenience operation”.
Opening a single door*
This function allows one to just unlock the driver's door. The other doors
remain locked and are only unlocked when the command is repeated. The
single door opening function can be first activated by recoding the control
unit of the central locking system. This work is undertaken by a Škoda
Service Partner can give you more information.
Automatic locking*
All the doors and the tailgate are locked automatically once the car
reaches a speed of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked
again. In addition, it is possible for the driver to unlock the car by pressing
the central locking button
 or by pulling the door opening lever. If you wish, your Škoda Service Partner can convert the central locking
system of your car to the automatic locking mode.
WARNING
•Locking the doors prevents involuntary opening in an excep-
tional situation (an accident). Locked doors prevent unwanted
entry into the vehicle from outside, for example at road crossings.
Locked doors do, however, make it more difficult for rescuers to
get into the vehicle in an emergency - danger to life!
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 vehicle.
•Only the front doors can be unlocked and locked using the key if the
central locking system fails. You can operate the rear door manually.
−Emergency locking of the door ⇒page 46.
Safe securing
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system.
Locking the vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automat-
ically blocked. The indicator light in the driver's door flashes. It is not
possible to open the doors with the door handle either from the inside or
from the outside. This acts as an effective deterrent for attempts to break
into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system. This is done by locking the
vehicle with the key or radio-operated key twice within 2 seconds.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is
unlocked and locked again.

safe securing system is deactivated:
•The door is unlocked by actuating the door-opening lever.
•The door opens upon actuating the door-opening lever again.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing
system is activated, there must not be any person and animals in
the vehicle as it is then not possible to open either a door or a
window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard!

Folding out of the key
– Press button .
Folding up of the key
– Press button and collapse the key bit in the housing.
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked. The vehicle will lock again automatically if you unlock the
vehicle using button but do not open a door or the tailgate within the
next 30 seconds. This function is intended to prevent the car being
unlocked unintentionally.
The safe securing system along with the anti-theft alarm system* are,
however, deactivated during these 30 seconds.
When the vehicle is unlocked or locked, the interior lights in the door
contact are automatically switched on or off.
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been
correctly locked.
If the turn signal lights do not flash, check the doors, bonnet and tailgate
again to ensure that they are closed. If the doors, the bonnet or the tailgate
remain open when the anti-theft alarm system* is activated, the turn signal
lights do not flash until after they have been closed.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing
system is activated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as
it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the
inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get
into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
•Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and tailgate are
closed and you have visual contact with the vehicle.
•Once in the car, you must not press the lock button  of the master key
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being
inadvertently locked and, in addition, the anti-theft alarm system* being
switched on. Should this happen, press the unlock button
 of the master
key.
Synchonisation of the remote control
If the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuating the remote control system
then it is possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle
are no longer synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-
operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
•Press any button on the remote control.
•pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key
within 1 minute.
Anti-theft alarm system*
The anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against
people seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and
visual warning signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle.

– Turn the light switch into position O ⇒page 55, fig. 32 .
– Switch on the switch for daylight driving lights ⇒page 55,
fig. 33 .
– After switching on the ignition the side lights are switched on.
– After starting the engine the low beam is switched on.
Switching off daylight driving lights*
– Switch off the switch for daylight driving lights ⇒page 55,
fig. 33 .
– Turn the light switch to the position side lights
 or low beam
 ⇒ page 55, fig. 32 .
Low beam comes on only if the ignition is switched on. The low beam is
switched off automatically when the engine is started and after switching
the ignition off; only the side lights come on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering* the position of certain
switches differs from that shown in ⇒page 55, fig. 32 . The symbols which
mark the switch positions are identical, however.
WARNING
Never drive with side lights on - risk of accident! 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. In this case, always switch on
the low beam when it is dark or if visibility is poor.
Note
•An audible warning will sound if you withdraw the ignition key and open
the driver's door when the vehicle lights are still on.
•The acoustic warning signal is switched off over the door contact when
the driver's door is closed (ignition off). The vehicle can be parked with the
side lights on.
•If you park the car for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all
lights, or leaving only the side lights switched on.
•The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in
accordance with the legal requirements.
•In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be
misted up from inside.
−The temperature difference between interior and external area of
the headlight lenses is decisive.
− When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are
free from mist after a short period. The headlight lenses can possibly
mist up at the border areas.
− It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
− This mist has no influence on the life of the lighting system.
Cornering lights* 
For a better cornering illumination the cornering lights are controlled in the
optimal position in line with the vehicle speed and the steering angle.
If the warning light
 flashes for 1 minute while driving or after switching
on the ignition and a warning signal sounds, a fault is confirmed.

The interior light is switched on for about 20 seconds when a vehicle with
a central locking system is unlocked, when a door is opened or when the ignition key is removed. The requirement for this is that the switch is in the
door contact position. The inner light goes out out immediately after the

locking system stays on for a few seconds after the doors have been
closed. The inner light goes out out immediately after the ignition is
switched on.
The interior lighting is switched off after about 30 minutes when a door has
been left open in order to avoid discharging the battery of the vehicle.
