46Caution
In a critical situation, the movement of the lid can be stopped by applying an
abrupt and quick force against the lid.
Before opening or closing the lid, check if there are any objects in the opening or
closing range which could obstruct the movement (e.g. a load on the roof luggage rack
or on the trailer etc.). - Risk of damaging the lid!
Make sure that there is at least 10 cm of clearance above the opened boot lid (e.g.
distance from the garage ceiling). Otherwis e, it may happen that the clearance above
the opened lid is no longer sufficient after relieving the vehicle of a load (e.g. after
unloading) - risk of damaging the lid.
Do not try to manually close the lid during the electric closing process. Damage can
occur to the system of the electric boot lid.
If you manually close the lid, make sure that you press the lock located at the centre
edge of the lid while pressing down the lid above the Škoda logo.Note
If the electrical opening of the lid was triggered using the button on the remote
control key or the button on the centre cons ole, an intermittent audible signal sounds
while the lid is moving.
The electric boot lid is fitted with a force limiter. If the lid hits an obstacle when
closing, it stops and an audible signal sounds . If you rapidly enter the vehicle during the
opening or closing process of the boot lid, the whole vehicle may jerk and as a result
the movement of the lid can be interrupted - the force limiter is activated.
Manually opening and closing the boot lid is only possible in exceptional cases, in
a slow manner and without sudden movements - if possible close to the centre of the
lid - ; by manipulating the lid on the sides, damage to the electric lid may occur.
In certain circumstances, if the lid is load ed (e.g by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. In order to ensure the electrical function
of the lid, relieve the lid.
Description of the operationWhen operating the lid, the system distinguishes 3 areas fig. 34 where the function
of the individual operating elements changes. The end positions of the lid - fully closed
in the secured lock and fully opened - differ as well.

Note
The expansion of the area page 46, fig. 34 changes proportionally, depending on
the setting of the top position of the lid page 47. When setting the top position of
the lid in the area , the area is not active, the expansion of the area changes
proportionally to the set top position of the lid.Setting the top position of the lidIf the space for opening the lid is restricted (e.g. height of garage) or for more conven-

lower than the maximum top position which can be reached when the lid is opened
manually.
Operational malfunctionsIf the battery is disconnected and reconnected while the boot lid is open, it is neces-
sary to activate the system of the electric b oot lid. Activating means the initialisation of

d with the vehicle key, however only in a
critical situation - risk of damaging the key.Remote controlDescriptionYou can use the remote control key:
to unlock and lock the car,
unlock or open the boot lid,
Opening and closing window.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control key. The
receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the remote control
key 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 receiver unit has been repaired or a new unit installed,
it is then necessary for an authorised Škoda Service Partner to initialise the system.
Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control key.Note
The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched on.
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
from transmitters close to th e car and which operate in the same frequency range (e.g.
mobile phone, TV transmitter).
The battery must be replaced, ideally by an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if the
central locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control at less than
3 metres away.
If the driver door is opened, the vehi cle cannot be locked using the remote
control.
