As an additional warning signal, a 3 time peep sounds if the car is driven at a speed
of more than 6km/hour an d if the door is open.
Radio display
These displays appear in addition to the normal information in the radio display.
Auto Check Control
Car state
The Auto Check Control carries out a check of certain functions and vehicle compo-
nents. The check is performed constantly wh en the ignition is switched on, both
when the vehicle is stationary, as well as when driving.
Operational faults, urgent repairs, service work or other information appear in the
display of the instrument cluster. The displays are shown with a red or yellow light
symbol depending on the priority of the message.
The red symbols indicate danger (priority 1) while the yellow symbols indicate a
warning (priortity 2). Information for the driver may also appear in addition to the
symbols ⇒page 22. Investigate the displayed faults as soon as possible. If several operational faults exist
at the same time, the symbols will appear
one after the other and are each visible
for about 2 seconds.
The error messages are faded out after 10 seconds or by actuating the rocker switch
⇒ page 19, fig. 11 and are stored under the information CAR STATUS.
There is at least one error message to be read when the term CAR STATUS is
flashing in the main menu. The display will show STATUS 1/2 (for example) if a
number of error messages are present. This display indicates that the first of a total
of two error messages should be displayed.
Actuate the rocker switch , to call up the individual error messages.
If a fault occurs, a warning signal will also sound in addition to the symbol and text
in the display:
•Priority 1 - three warning signals
•Priority 2 - one warning signal
Operational check of the automatic gearbox
When the ignition is switched on, the Auto Check Control automatically carries out
an operational check. The following text will appear first if the selector lever is the
position P or N:
"APPLY FOOT BRAKE WHEN SELECTING GEAR WITH VEHICLE
STATIONARY." (Apply foot brake when selecting a gear while the vehicle is
stationary).
You must depress the brake pedal first and press the Shiftlock button at the same
time in order to move the selector lever out of these positions.
The text will disappear once you select a drive position ( R, D etc.), and the Auto
Check Control function is displayed.
If the Auto Check Control detects faults, these will be displayed about 15 seconds
after starting the engine in place of the text shown above. A warning signal sounds
at the same time.

Unlocking and locking
Key
– Press the unlock button ⇒fig. 18 in order to open and close the
folding key.
Your car is supplied with two master keys ⇒fig. 17 as well as a service key
and a key ring . The master keys fit in all vehicle locks. The service key can be
used only to open the doors and to start the engine. The service key is intended, for
example, to be handed over with your car when it goes for a service, or when you
arrive at the hotel. Key ring
The key ring only has the key number on it
which is essential for producing other
keys. This number can be us ed to order replacement keys from the Škoda Service
Par tners.
The key ring with the number should be separately and securely kept in safe
keeping since keys can only be replaced if th ey are lost or damaged by giving this
number. You should also therefore give this key ring to the purchaser when selling
the vehicle.
WARNING
•Always withdraw the key whenever you leave the ve hicle - even if it is
only for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the
vehicle. The children migh t otherwise start the engine or operate electrical
equipment (e.g. power windows) - risk of injury!
•Do not withdraw the ignition key from the ignition lock until the vehicle
has come to a stop. The steering lock might otherwise engage unintention-
ally - risk of accident!
Caution
•Each key contains electronic components ; therefore protect them against mois-
ture and severe shocks.
•Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean as impurities (textile fibres, dust
etc.) have a negative effect on proper op eration of the keys and the ignition lock.
Note
Please approach a Škoda Service Partner if you lose a key since he can obtain a new
one for you.

Central locking system
Description
Unlocking or locking the vehicle causes all doors to be unlocked or locked at the
same time by the central locking system. Th e boot lid is unlocked when opening. It
can be opened by pressing the hand grip above the licence plate.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:
•from the outside using the vehicle key ⇒page 34
•using the buttons for the central locking system ⇒page 35
•by using the radio remote control ⇒page 37
Convenience operation of windows
One can open and close the electrically powered windows when unlocking and

If you wish, your Škoda Service Partner ca n convert the central locking system of
your car to the automatic locking mode.
WARNING
Locking the doors prevents involuntary opening in an exceptional 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
•After unlocking the vehicle see, if the se curing knobs are located on all doors at
the bottom.
•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.
•Should the central locking system not operate properly, you can lock and unlock
the front doors and the boot lid with the key. Emergency unlocking of fuel filler flap
⇒ page 183.
Safe securing
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door lock s to be automatically blocked. It is not
possible to pull out the locking buttons. The indicator light in the driver's door
flashes. It is not possible to open the d oors 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.
Deactivating the safe securing system means that the warning light next to the
securing knob in the driver's door will not fl ash. This is not the case, however, for an
activated anti-theft alarm system* since the indicator light is showing that the
system is active ⇒page 39. The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is unlocked and
locked again.
The doors can be opened from the inside
if the vehicle is locked and the 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 outsid e and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, 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 emer-
gency - hazard!
Note
The anti-theft alarm system is also armed when the car is closed without activating
the safe securing system. In this case, always switch off the interior monitoring
sensor* ⇒page 40 first of all to avoid an alarm being triggered unintentionally.
