Operating instructions
These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without
identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent
equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in these operating instructions.
The scope of equipment for your vehicle is described in the sales documentation
you were given when purchasing the car. For more information, contact your local
ŠKODA retailer. ÐSymbols in the text of the operating instructions

Warranty
The equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles.
After the expiration of the warranty, a piece of equipment in need of repair will be
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, howev-
er, a precondition that the housing has not been damaged and no unauthorised
attempts have been made to carry out repairs. Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty must not be the result of improper
handling of the system or from unprofessional repair attempts. It is also essential
that there is no external damage. Ð Device operation
The radio should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it.  6

General information

The volume settings must be selected in such a way that audible signals from the
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire
brigade), can be heard at all times. WARNING
Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Only use the functions of the radio in such a way
that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all traffic situations! CAUTION
■ Inserting a second CD while a CD is being ejected can destroy the CD drive in
the unit. Please note that the CD ejection lasts a few seconds after pressing the
Eject key 
/  . During this time the lock in front of the CD case is open. It is es-
sential that you wait until the CD has been fully ejected before you try to insert a
new CD.
■ Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging
them. Gentle pressure on the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit.
Please note that the control buttons have predetermined breaking points, in or-
der to reduce the risk of injury.
■ Do not use any pointed or sharp-edged objects to operate the touch-screen.
Slight finger pressure sufficient to operate the equipment. A display on the
screen, which cannot be called up by pressing the button, is therefore not availa-
ble at that time. ÐWindscreen cleaning
CAUTION
■ Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will corrode the display
surface.
■ Carefully handle the display because dents and scratches can occur through
pressure of the finger or contact with sharp objects. Note
The display can be cleaned with a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away
with pure alcohol. Ð Anti-theft protection
Anti-theft coding
Your radio is equipped with a convenience coding. If the radio is being operated
for the first time, the safety code is not only stored in the radio but also in the
vehicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, first of all switch on the igni-
tion and then the radio.
If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be en-
tered. In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a
ŠKODA Service Partner or a
ŠKODA importer.
As the unit only functions after entering the safety code, this practically excludes
its use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety. Note
The code is stored in the instrument cluster. This ensures that it is automatically
decoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is normally not necessa-
ry. Ð Enter code
If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the
unit can be unlocked by entering the correct four-digit code number. › Press a digit from
0 to
9 on the digit block displayed on the screen. The digit is
accepted in the entry line.
› After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (in-
active) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
› Press
 on the touch-screen to erase the digits in the entry line from right to
left and thereby correct your input, if necessary.
› If the correct code number is displayed in the entry line, press
OK .
Code number
The code number can only be called up

“online” via the ŠKODA system, as this
guarantees even more effective anti-theft protection. Please contact your au-
thorized ŠKODA Service Partner, if necessary. 

General information

Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry of the code, the procedure can be re-
peated once again
. The number of possible attempts is shown in the second line
on the touch-screen.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the second time, the unit will be
blocked for approx. one hour. It is possible to enter again the safety code after
one hour has expired, when the unit and the ignition have been switched on.
If two invalid attempts are then made again, the system will be
blocked again for an hour.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - will continue to apply. Note
The code is normally stored in the instrument cluster. This ensures that it is auto-
matically decoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is normally not
necessary. ÐGeneral - operation
The screen of the unit is a so-called “touch-screen”. Fields circled in colour on the
touch-screen are presently “active” and are operated by touching the screen. Ac-
tive fields, which call up a function or a menu, are called “function keys”.

Radio text shown as highlighted in the opening pop-up window.
RDS (“ Radio Data System”) serves to transmit program identification and addi-
tional services therefore also enabling automatic tracking of stations.
In the event of sufficiently satisfactory reception, the suitable RDS radio stations
will display the station name instead of the station frequency.
If a radio station sends additional information via the RDS function while a station
is being stored, it can occur that the name of the radio station is later displayed
incorrectly in the preset list. Ð Traffic information function
› Press on the button
TP , in order to switch the traffic information function on or
off.
The display “ TP” in combination with a station name (e.g. in the station or preset
list), indicates a traffic programme station.
Irrespective of which radio station is heard, an additional receiver part in the unit
ensures that a traffic programme station can always be received as long as the
traffic programme function is switched on.
The operational readiness of the traffic information function is indicated by “TP ”
at the top right in the display.
If no traffic programme station can be received because, for example, radio recep-
tion is interrupted in general,

“No TP” will be displayed instead of “ TP”. Remem-
ber that car parks, tunnels, high buildings or mountains can interrupt the radio
signal up to the total loss of reception.
Incoming traffic announcement
When a traffic announcement is being received, a pop-up window will open.
If you wish to interrupt the transmission of the traffic announcement, press on
the function key Cancel in the pop-up window
Traffic announcement. The traffic
programme function remains available and a following traffic announcement is
made again while the audio mode is in operation. Pressing the function key Deact. TP will switch off the traffic programme function permanently.
Ð
6 Basic setting

Traffic information memory
Automatic recording of traffic reports
If the traffic information function is switched on and a traffic information station
is received, the incoming traffic reports will be recorded, as long as the ignition is
switched on. This way you are informed at any time of the current traffic situa-
tion, even if you have your radio switched off for a lengthy period while driving.
If the vehicle is not in use (ignition off) while a traffic information station is re-
ceived and the traffic information function is switched on, incoming traffic reports
from this station are recorded for two hours.
When switching the ignition off the current traffic information station is displayed
for about five seconds, from which the next two hours of traffic reports will be
recorded. During this display of five seconds, you can select another traffic infor-
mation station using the arrow keys on the unit, which will be recorded.
If, when the vehicle is not in use, the reception of the set traffic information sta-
tion is too poor because of external influences, it will automatically search for an-
other traffic information station.
A maximum of nine traffic announcements with a total length of up to four mi-
nutes can be recorded. The oldest traffic report will always be overwritten if the
memory is full.
TIM recording times
You also have the possibility to set two TIM recording times, to which the unit will
also record traffic reports when the vehicle is not in use. Then the radio starts ac-
cording to the set TIM recording time with the recording of all the incoming traffic
reports on the set traffic information station.
For example, when you drive your vehicle to work everyday at a certain time, only
enter the approximate start time. The radio starts with the recording 90 minutes
before the set start time and ends the recording 30 minutes afterwards. In this
way, before you begin your journey, you can retrieve the last traffic reports and
tune into the current traffic situation of the distance to be driven. Note
■ In case of a message of over four minutes long, the beginning is overwritten.
■ If the vehicle has not been used for more than three days, no further traffic re-
ports are recorded, in order to stop the vehicle battery from running down. Ð Playing traffic reports
