The driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the pedals can be fully
pressed to the floor with slightly bent legs.
The seat backrest on the driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the
upper point of the steering wheel can be easily reached with slightly bent arms.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important:
› for safely and quickly reaching the controls;
› for a relaxed body position that reduces fatigue;
› for achieving maximum protection from the seat belts and the airbag system.
WARNINGGeneral information■Caution when adjusting the seat! You may suffer injuries or bruises as a re-
sult of adjusting the seat without paying proper attention.■
The electric front seat adjustment is still functional if the ignition is switch-
ed off (even with the ignition key removed). Therefore, children should never
be left unattended in the vehicle.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this will
impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of injury!
■
Never carry more people than the number of seats in the vehicle.
■
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 186, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
WARNING (Continued)■ The front seats and head restraints must be adjusted to match the body
size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to provide
the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
Do not carry any objects on the front passenger seat except objects de-
signed for this purpose (e.g. child seats) – risk of accident!
WARNINGInformation for the driver■Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary – risk of accident!■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel, and a dis-
tance of at least 10 cm between the legs and the dash panel at the height of
the knee airbag. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
■
Ensure that there are no objects in the driver's footwell, as these may get
caught in the pedal apparatus when driving or braking » page 139. You would
then no longer be able to operate the clutch, brake or accelerate.
WARNINGInformation for the front seat passenger■Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the dash panel. Not maintaining this
minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to proper-
ly protect you - hazard!■
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. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes nec-
essary to apply the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is de-
ployed, you may suffer fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated posi- tion!
Note
■ After a certain time, play can develop within the adjustment mechanism of the
backrest angle.■
For safety reasons, it is not possible to store the seat position in the electric
seat memory and remote control key memory if the inclination angle of the seat
backrest is more than 102° in relation to the seat cushion.
■
Each time you store the position of the electrically adjustable driver's seat and
exterior mirrors, the existing setting is deleted.

Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
ŠKODA permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems with
a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission power of
up to 10 watts.
Please consult a ŠKODA Partner for information about the possibility of installing
and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems with a transmission
power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the func-tionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The reasons for this are as follows: › no external aerial;
› external aerial incorrectly installed;
› transmission power greater than 10 watts.
WARNING■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incorrectly,
this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle.■
Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a mobile phone on a seat, on the dash panel or in any area from
where it becomes a projectile during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an acci-
dent or a collision — risk of injury.
■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
Universal telephone preinstallation (hands free)
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
The universal telephone preinstallation (“hands-free system”) includes a conven-
ience mode for the mobile phone via voice control, the multifunction steering
wheel, the radio or navigation system.
WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle. Only use the hands-free system to the extent that you are in full control of your vehicle in any traffic situation.■
The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served.
110Using the system
Page 114 of 274
Note■We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist firm.■
Not all mobile phones that enable Bluetooth ®
communication are compatible
with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM II or GSM III. Ask a ŠKODA Part-
ner whether your phone is compatible with the universal telephone preparation
GSM II or GSM III.
■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is restricted
to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles be- tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mobile phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when estab-
lishing a connection with the hands-free-system or transferring data.

A phone phonebook is part of the hands-free system. This phone phonebook can
be used depending on the type of mobile phone.
After the telephone's first connection to the hands-free system, the phone bookfrom the phone and the SIM card loads into the hands-free memory.
Each time the telephone has established a new connection with the hands-freesystem, an update of the relevant phone book is performed. The updating can
take a few minutes. During this period, the available phone book is the one stored
at the previous update. Newly stored telephone numbers are only shown after the updating has ended.
The update is interrupted if a telephone event (e.g. incoming or outgoing call,
voice control dialogue) occurs during the updating procedure. After the telephone
event has ended, the updating starts anew.
GSM II
The internal phonebook provides 2 500 free memory locations. Each contact can contain up to 4 numbers.
On vehicles fitted with the Columbus navigation system, a maximum of 1 200 tel-
ephone contacts are shown on the display of this appliance.
If the number of contacts loaded exceeds 2 500, the phone book is not complete.
GSM III
The internal phonebook provides 2 000 free memory locations. Each contact can
contain up to 5 numbers.
On vehicles fitted with the Columbus navigation system, a maximum of 1 000 tel- ephone contacts are shown on the display of this appliance.

Dialogue
Fig. 112
Multifunction steering wheel
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 122.
The voice control system (hereinafter referred to as the system) makes it possible to use voice commands for some functions of the hands-free system.
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice commandsand to carry them out is called a dialogue. The system gives audible feedback and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors. › Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
› Avoid a bad pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, to reduce or stop disturbing exterior
noise.
› You are recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the sound of
your voice is not drowned out by the increased ambient noise.
› During the dialogue, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talking
at the same time.
› Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is inserted in the moulded headliner and direc- ted to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front passen-
ger can operate the equipment.
Entering a phone number
The telephone number can be entered as a continuous series of individually spo-
ken digits (the whole number at once) or in the form of digital blocks (separated
by short pauses). After each order of digits (separation through brief voice pause)
all of the digits detected up to now are repeated by the system.
The digits 0 - 9, symbols +,
, # are permitted. The system detects no continuous
digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken digits (two, three).
