the boot lid within the next 30 seconds, the car locks again automatically.
This function is intended to prevent the vehicle being unlocked uninten-
tionally.
The safe securing system along with the anti-theft alarm system* are,
however, deactivated during these 30 seconds.
If the
single door opening function has been activated on your car, you
unlock only the driver door by pressing button once and the complete
vehicle by pressing the button twice ⇒page 43.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the power seats and exterior
mirrors* move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of
driver seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved automatically.
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.
Note
•Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid 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.
Synchronisation of the vehicle key code
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 open with the key within
1 minute.
Anti-theft alarm system
Description
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.
How is the alarm system switched on?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated automatically when the vehicle is
locked with the key on the closed driver's door or by using the remote
control. It is activated 30 seconds after closing the door.
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!

How is the alarm system switched off?
The anti-theft alarm system is switched off if the vehicle is unlocked by
only using the remote control. The vehicle is automatically locked again if
the vehicle is not opened within 30 seconds after reactivating the anti-theft
alarm system.
Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the key into the driver door you
then have to insert the key into the ignition lock and switch the ignition on
within 15 seconds after opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-
theft alarm system. The alarm will be triggered if you do not switch on
the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered?
The following security areas of the locked vehicle are monitored:
•Bonnet
•Boot lid
•Doors
•Ignition lock
•Vehicle interior* ⇒page 49.
•A drop in voltage of the on-board power supply
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is
disconnected while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
If you unlock and open the boot lid with the key, the alarm is immediately
triggered.
How is the alarm switched off?
You switch the alarm off if you unlock the car with the radio remote control
in the key or if you switch the ignition on.
Turn signals
All of the turn signal lights flash once to indicate that the doors, the bonnet
and the boot lid have been correctly closed when locking the car. If the turn signal lights do not flash, check the doors, bonnet and boot lid
again to ensure that they are closed. If the doors, the bonnet or the boot
lid remain open when the anti-theft alarm system is activated, the turn
signal lights do not flash until after they have been closed.
Indicator light (LED)
The LED in the top of the door trim on the driver door first of all flashes
rapidly after the car is locked, then slowly. This indicates that the anti-theft
alarm system
including the interior monitor* is activated.
Note
•Before leaving the car, check that all the doors, windows and the elec-
tric sliding/tilting roof* are properly closed in order to ensure that the anti-
theft alarm system is fully operational.
•Power supply for the remote control operation is provided by a battery.
The battery must be replaced, ideally by the Škoda dealer, if the central
locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control at less
than 3 metres away.
