Unlocking and locking
Key
Two keys with remote control are provided with the vehicle ⇒fig. 22 .
WARNING
•Always withdraw the key whenever you leave the vehicle - even if it is
only for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the
vehicle. The children might otherwise st art 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 cl ean 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.
Changing the battery of the radio remote control
Each radio-operated key contains a ba ttery which is housed in the cover

⇒ page 45.
Electronic immobiliser
The electronic immobiliser prevents the vehicle being operated by an
unauthorised person.
An electronic chip is integrated in the he ad of the key. The immobiliser is deacti-
vated with the aid of this chip when the key is inserted in the ignition lock. The elec-
tronic immobiliser is automatically activated when you withdraw the ignition key
from the lock.
Note

Central locking system
Description
Unlocking or locking the vehicle causes all the doors and the fuel filler flap to be
unlocked or locked at the same time by th e central locking system. The boot lid is
unlocked when opening. Afterwards you can open the boot lid by pressing the
handle on the lower edge of the boot lid ⇒page 41.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:
•by using the remote control ⇒page 44,
•using the buttons for the central locking system ⇒page 39,
•from the outside using the vehicle key ⇒page 40, “Emergency unlocking and
locking of the driver's door”.
The indicator light in the driver's door
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 39 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 an d in the towing protection monitoring*
⇒ page 46. Contact a specialist garage to obtain assistance.
Convenience operation of windows
One can open and close the windows when opening and closing the vehicle
⇒ page 49.
Opening a single door*
This function allows one to just unlock the driver's door. The other doors and the
fuel filler flap remain locked and are on ly unlocked after repetitive unlocking.
You can have the function opening a sin gle door activated by a Škoda Service
Partner on request or you can activate it yourself with the aid of the information
display* ⇒page 23.
Automatic locking*
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a speed
of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the ca r is then automatically unlocked again. In
addition, it is possible for the driver or front passenger to unlock the car by pressing
the central locking button
 ⇒ page 39 or by pulling the door opening lever.
You can have the function of the automatic locking activated by a specialist garage
on request or you can activate it yourself with the aid of the information display*
⇒ page 23.
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
m ore difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - danger to
life!

Seats and Stowage
Front seats
Basic information
The front seats have a wide range of differ ent 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 offere d by the seat belts and the airbag
system.
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 171, “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 important for the front seat
passenger. You will be exposed to increa sed risk of injury if it becomes
necessary to apply the brake or in the ev ent 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 airb
ag system will not be able to prop-
erly 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.
Adjusting the front seats
Adjusting a seat in a forward/back direction
–Pull the lever ⇒fig. 62 up and push the seat into the desired posi-
tion.
– Release the lever and push the seat further until the lock is heard to engage.
Adjusting height of seat
– Lift the seat if required by pulling or pumping lever upwards.
