KESSY system* - DescriptionThe KESSY system (Keyless Entry Start Exit System) enables a comfort unlocking and
locking of the vehicle and a start-up without ac tively using the remote control key. It is
sufficient to carry the key with you, for example in your pocket, for unlocking and
locking the vehicle or for starting the engine.
The functions of the central locking system , the safe securing system* and the anti-
theft alarm system* correspond to vehicles without KESSY system. Only the control
elements are different.
Control elements of the system:
Sensor on the outside of the door handle for the front door fig. 26 - serves
for locking the vehicle,
Sensor on the inside of the d oor handle for the front door fig. 26 - serves for
unlocking the vehicle.
Unlocking and locking the vehicleFig. 26 KESSY: Designation of the areas and unlocking/locking the vehicle
If a valid remote control key is located in the area fig. 26 or of the vehicle, it
is possible to unlock the relevant door of this area. This means, if the key is located in
the area , you can unlock the front left door. If the valid key is located in the area ,
it is possible to unlock the boot lid.Unlocking the vehicle– If you hold the door handle of the front door or cover the sensor fig. 26 with
the whole palm of your hand, the vehicle is then unlocked. If you cover the sensor and at the same time the sensor when unlocking, the vehicle is not
unlocked.Locking the vehicle– Close the driver or front passenger door.
– If you touch the sensor with your finger s, the vehicle is now locked (while doing
so do not hold the door handle, othe rwise the vehicle cannot be locked).
– On vehicles fitted with automatic gearbox, the selector lever must be moved into
the position P before unlocking.Deactivating safe securing system*– Use your fingers to cover the sensor twice within 2 seconds.Unlocking and locking the boot lid– If you press on the handle of the boot lid, the lid is then unlocked. If the vehicle is
fitted with the electric boot lid* system, the lid begins to open after pressing the
handle.
– If the boot lid is closed, it is locked.
Check locking
After locking the vehicle with the aid of the sensor fig. 26 , it is not possible to
unlock the vehicle with the aid of the sensor for 2 seconds. Thus, it is possible to
check if the vehicle is locked by pulling on the handle.

Safe securingThe central locking system is equipped with a safe securing
6) system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automatically blocked. It is not
possible to open the doors 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 by locking twice within 2 seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operating:
the indicator light in the driver door flas hes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and
starts to flash slowly after about 30 seconds,
is the filler flap locked.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is unlocked and
locked again.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, you can open the
vehicle from the inside by pulling on the door opening lever.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside 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 emergency -
hazard!
Note
The anti-theft alarm system* is also activated with the deactivated safe securing
system when locking the vehicle. The interior monitor* is however not activated.

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.

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.
