battery.
•If it is still not be possible to unlock or lock the vehicle with the remote control
even after replacing the battery this mean s that the system has to be synchronised
⇒ 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
It is only possible to start the engine of your car with a Genuine Škoda key with the
matching code.

Switching child safety lock on
– Use the vehicle key to turn the slit in the rear door to the left in the direction of the arrow ⇒page 37, fig. 25 .
Switching child safety lock off
– Use the vehicle key to turn the slit to the right against the direction of the arrow.
So long as the child safety lo ck is switched on it is not possible to open the door
from the inside with the door opening lever. In this case the door can be opened
only from the outside.
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!

The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the key. The receiver is
located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the remote control is
approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control can be reduced if the batteries
are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking the car
manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the rece iver unit has been repaired or a new unit
installed, it is then necessary for a Škoda Dealer to initialise the system. Only after
this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
•The remote control is automatically deac tivated when the ignition is switched
on.
•The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
•The battery must be replaced, ideally by a Škoda Service Partner, if the central
locking or anti-theft alarm system does re act to the remote control at less than 3
metres away.
•If the vehicle door is opened, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote
control.

Universal telephone preinstallation GSM III*
Introduction
This enables you to make full use of the ad vantages of a normal carphone (“hands-
free system” using a microphone integrated in the vehicle, optimal transmission of
signals using an external aerial etc.). The equipment includes also the voice control.
The telephone is connected using the rSAP profile - Remote SIM access profile
(telecommunication of the SIM data) by means of Bluetooth
® technology, if your
telephone supports this profile. The equi pment includes the following functions:
•Display of the SMS text in the information display.
•Free talking in the vehicle interior.
•MUTE signal to the radio.
•Voice control (with the set-up possibility for “short and long dialogue”,
depending on the user's knowledge of the operating structure).
•Convenience mode with the multifunction steering wheel and the display in the
information display.
•Handsfree-system.
The voice control of the telephone is acti vated by pressing the button PTT on the
multifunction steering wheel ⇒page 139, fig. 142 .
A phone phonebook is part of the univers al telephone preinstallation GSM III with
voice control. In the phone phonebook there are 1 000 free memory locations
available. This phone phonebook is inde pendent of the appliance used for the
mobile phone.
Furthermore the volume can be changed indi vidually at any time with the button
for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multifunction steering wheel* with
function buttons on the steering wheel.
Dialogue
The period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and
carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible feed-
back and guides you if nece ssary through the relevant functions. You can start or
end the dialogue at any time by pressing the PTT button. The dialogue is always automatically ended after carrying out an operation, e.g.
after erasing the name from the phonebook.
The dialogue of the incoming call is i
mmediately interrupted and you can accept
the call by pressing the button
.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “ Sorry?” and a new
entry can be performed. After the 2nd error the system repeats the aid. After the 3rd
error the answer “ Cancel” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following
factors:
•Speak with a normal tone of voice wi thout intonation and excessive voice
pauses.
•Avoid insufficient articulation.
•Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to reduce or stop disturbing
exterior noise.
•It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
•During the dialogue avoid additional nois e in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously
talking occupants.
•Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
•The microphone for voice control is in serted in the moulded headliner and
directed to the driver and front passen ger. Therefore the driver and the front
passenger can operate the equipment.
WARNING
Pay attention primarily to the traffic si tuation! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Use the telephone system only to such an extent,
so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.
Note
•Please contact your Škoda Service Partne r if there are any points which are not
clear.
•Please also refer to the additional instructions ⇒page 145.
