Unlocking and locking47
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
Locking the vehicle
– Press button for about 1 second.
Tailgate release
– Press button for about 1 second.
Deactivating safe securing system
– Press button twice in 2 seconds. Further information
⇒page 42.
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked. If you unlock the car with button but do not open a door or
the boot lid within the next 30 seconds, the car locks again automatically.
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.
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 41.
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. 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.
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 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.
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.

•The system is fitted with a force limiter. The closing process will
be stop if an obstruction is detected and the window will open
again. You should then take particular care when closing the
windows! You may otherwise suffer severe injuries as a result of
getting an arm, for example, jammed in the window!
•It is recommended to deactivate the electrically operated power
windows in the rear doors (safety pushbutton) ⇒page 49,
fig. 30 when children are being transported on the rear seats.
Note
•After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the
windows for a further 10 minutes. The automatic closing and opening
functions will not operate during this time. The power windows are
switched off completely once you open the driver or front passenger door.
•When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and
ventilation system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows
are opened, dust as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addi-
tion the wind noise is more at certain speeds.AA

Front seats
Basic information
The front seats have a wide range of different settings and can thus be
matched to the physical characteristics of the driver and front passenger.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important for
•safely and quickly reaching the controls,
•a relaxed, fatigue-free body position,
•achieving the maximum protection offered by the seat belts and
the airbag system.
The chapters which follow describe the procedure which you should adopt
for adjusting the seats.
WARNING
•Never transport more occupants than the maximum seating in
the vehicle.
•Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to
the seat. Children must be fastened ⇒page 174, “Transporting
children safely” with a suitable restraint system.
•The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted
to match the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts
must always be correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal
protection for you and your occupants.
•Always keep your feet in the footwell when the car is being
driven - never place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the
window or on the surfaces of the seats. This is particularly impor- tant for the front seat passenger. You will be exposed to increased
risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply the brake or in the
event of an accident. If an airbag is deployed, you may suffer fatal
injuries when adopting an incorrect seated position!
•It is important for the driver and front passenger to maintain a
distance of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dash panel.
Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag
system will not be able to properl y protect you - hazard! The front
seats and the head restraints must always also be correctly
adjusted to match the body size of the occupant.
•Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as any objects
may get behind the pedals during a driving or braking manoeuvre.
You would then no longer be able to operate the clutch, to brake or
accelerate.

Note
•When storing settings with the memory buttons, we recommend that
you begin with the front button and assign a memory button to each addi-
tional driver.
•Each new setting stored with the same button erases the previous
setting.
•Each time you store the seat and exterior mirror settings for driving
forward you also have to re-store the individual setting of the exterior
mirror on the passenger side for reversing.
Assigning remote control to the memory buttons
After storing the settings of the seat and exterior mirrors, you
have 10 seconds in order to assign the remote control to the
appropriate memory button.
– Withdraw the ignition key.
– Press the release button ⇒page 46 and hold it pressed for 1
second until an audible signal confirms that the setting has
been stored. The setting is stored with the memory button
which you have selected.
If you wish to be able to retrieve the settings which are stored in the
memory by also using the remote control, you have to assign the remote
control to a memory button in each case.
We recommend that you assign one of the two remote controls supplied
with your car, to the front memory button, and the other remote control key
to the middle memory button. If you wish, you can obtain an additional key with radio remote control from
a Škoda Service Partner and then assign the radio remote control to the
rear memory button.
Note
•If the remote control had previously been assigned to another memory
button, this setting is then erased by the new assignment.
•If you assign the remote control to a memory button which has already
been assigned to a remote control, the old assignment is also replaced by
a new assignment in this case.
•The assignment of the remote control to a memory button is retained,
however, after reassigning the seats and exterior mirrors.
Retrieving seat and exterior mirror settings for driving
forward
You can retrieve the stored settings either with the
memory buttons or with the remote control*.
Retrieving settings with memory buttons
– For safety reasons, you can only retrieve the seat and mirror
settings if the ignition is switched off. You have a choice of two
different ways of retrieving the settings:
– One-touch automatic memory: with the driver door open,
operate the desired memory button ⇒page 74, fig. 56
with one-touch. The seat and the exterior mirrors now move
automatically into the stored position.
