General information
Operating instructions
Please read this Columbus navigation system (from here on referred to only as device) Owner's Manual carefully, because operation in accordance with these
instructions is a prerequisite for proper use of the unit.
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 level of equipment of your vehicle refers to your purchase contract of the ve- hicle. More information is available from the ŠKODA Partner 1)
where you bought
the vehicle.
Please note that these instructions are meant only as an addendum to the infor-
mation presented in the Vehicle Manual for your vehicle. Therefore, they can be
used only in conjunction with the latest manual for this vehicle. For a detailed de-
scription of some functions listed in these instructions, see the Vehicle Manual
for your vehicle.
If you have any questions about your unit, please contact a ŠKODA Partner. The illustrations can differ in minor details from your device; they are only inten-
ded for general information.
Important information
Safety instructions
The device should only be used when traffic conditions permit safe use.
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 device so that you are in full control of your vehicle in every
traffic situation – there is the risk of accidents!
■
Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside the vehicle,
e.g. sirens from vehicles to give way to, such as the police, ambulance and fire
brigade, can be heard at all times.
■
High volumes can cause hearing damage.
Screen
CAUTION
■ Do not use solvents such as benzine or turpentine, which may damage the
screen surface.■
Treat the screen with care, as finger pressure or contact with sharp objects may
cause dents and scratches on the surface.
Note
The screen can be cleaned with a soft cloth and alcohol if necessary.
Signal receipt
Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio and GPS sig-
nal even causing it to fail completely.
Anti-theft protection
The anti-theft coding of your device prevents operation of the system after a voltage interruption, e.g. during a vehicle repair or following theft. After discon-
necting the battery, disconnecting the radio navigation system from the on-board voltage of the vehicle or after a fuse failure, the code must be entered before the

system can be used again. The code number can only be called up “online” via the
ŠKODA system, as this guarantees even more effective anti-theft protection. If
necessary, visit a ŠKODA Partner 1)
.
Enter code
If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the
unit must be unlocked by entering the correct four-digit code.›
Enter the four-digit code using the function keys 0 to 9. The digit is accepted
in the entry line.
After a four-digit order has been entered, the group of digits will turn grey (inac- tive) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
›
To delete the digits in the entry line from right to left, press the function key on the screen.
›
When the correct code is displayed in the entry line, press the function key
OK.
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 attempts is shown in the bottom screen line.
If the code is entered incorrectly a second time, the unit will be blocked for ap- prox. one hour. It is possible to enter again the safety code after one hour has ex-
pired, when the unit and the ignition have been switched on.
If two invalid attempts are then made again, the radio navigation system will beblocked again for one hour.
Note
The code is normally saved in the instrument cluster memory. This ensures that
the device is automatically decoded (convenience decoding). Manual input of the
code is normally not necessary.
Screen display
The screen of the unit displays information such as information from the Clima-
tronic, the vehicle distance to an obstacle if the “parking aid” has been activated, etc.

Input screen with keypad
Fig. 3
Example of an input screen with keypad/input screen with numbers
The input screen with keypad appears when entering a new line, searching for a
point of interest or a telephone number, for instance.
If you press a function key with a character on the keypad, this character appears
in the input line in the upper part of the screen.
You can also delete or change the string in the entry line and add special charac- ters.
The available characters are context-dependent.
Further input possibilities:
- Displaying the entries matching the selection. The function key moves to
the list of entries matching the selection.
- returns from any menu point to the previous menu point
- Displaying the entries matching the selection.
- changes from upper case to lower case and vice versa.
- switches to the input screen for numbers and special characters

- switches to the input screen for letters
- Enter a space
- switches to the Cyrillic script

ter input mark from right to left
OK
- confirms the text entered in the entry line
Selecting letters based on specific characters
In the input screen, some characters are marked with the symbol “ ”. Pressing
the character identified in this way for a long period of time allows you to choose
special characters for the selected language.
Some specific characters can be “written out”. Therefore, the character sequen-ces “AE”, “UE” and “OE” will also be recognised by the device instead of the Ger-
man special characters “Ä” , “Ü” and “Ö”. Other special characters can also be ig-
nored, e.g. a normal “E” is recognised by the device instead of “É”, “Ê” or “Ě”.

Voice control of the device
Introductory information
The voice control is only possible in the following languages: Czech, English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian .
You can use the voice control in the operating modes RADIO, MEDIA, PHONE, MAP
and NAV .
Switch on voice control (dialogue)
› Press the button
.
Dialogue
› The long or short dialogue can be selected by pressing the key
on the unit
and by speaking the voice command “ Long dialogue” (the system outputs the
message completely without shortening it) or “ Short dialogue” (the system
shortens some messages or substitute them with an acoustic signal (gong),
which accelerates the control) or in manual mode SETUP » page 10 , Setup
Voice control .
Interrupt messages
› The message just given can be finished by pressing the button
on the unit.
This allows you to speak another voice command earlier.
Switch off voice control (dialogue)
› After executing the voice command, voice control switches off automatically.
› By pressing one of the buttons which are located on the side of the screen of
the unit or by touching the screen (unless the function key Hide help
is not
pressed in the help display).
› By speaking the voice command “
Cancel”.
› If the system does not receive a voice command or does not recognise the voice
command, although dialogue is switched on, it responds with the question “ Par-
don? ” and allows you to speak another voice command. If the system does not
receive a voice command even the second time, you will be offered help. If the
system does not receive a voice command even the third time, you receive the
message “ Cancel” and the voice control switches off.
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.
› Do not use abbreviations – always speak the whole voice command.
›
Do not speak when the system makes an announcement. As long as the system
has not finished the announcement, it will not react to an additional voice com-
mand.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to avoid disturbing influen-
ces of the environment on the understanding of the voice commands.
› During the dialogue, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously
talking occupants.
› The microphone for voice control is directed to the driver as well as to the front
passenger. Therefore the driver and the front passenger can operate the unit.
Voice commands
The system only recognises 30 000 entries (i.e, it will only recognise 30 000 of the largest cities for the selected country, for example, in the operating mode
NAV . If the desired city is not included in the 30 000 entries, it cannot be spoken
normally, but it must be entered by spelling it out.
Call up the general information for the voice control by briefly pressing the button
on the unit and by speaking the command “ Instructions”. Then you hear a
message that the instructions are divided into seven parts. If you want more de-
tailed information about individual parts of the instructions, then, for example,
speak the voice command “ Tutorial Part 2”.
Call up the general help for individual operating modes by briefly pressing the
button
on the unit and by speaking the command “
Help Quick Commands”.
Voice command “Help”
Help can be called up by speaking the command “ Help”. Depending on the operat-
ing mode in which you are, the help given will offer different possibilities. If the
options offered are not sufficient, speak the voice command “ Further options”.
Changing between the operating modes
If you wish to change between the operating modes after switching on the voice
control, always speak the name of the operating mode to which you wish to
change. This means, if you are in the operating mode RADIO and you wish to
change into the operating mode MEDIA, speak the voice command “ Media”. Al-
ways speak the names of the operating modes PHONE, MAP, NAV as “telephone,
map, navigation ”.
In each operating mode, you can also use the voice commands for other operating modes - the unit automatically switches between the different operating modes.
