Mobility warranty and ŠKODA extendedwarranty
Mobility warranty
The mobility warranty provides a sense of security when travelling in your vehicle.
As part of the mobility warranty, if your car breaks down when you are on the
move as a result of an unexpected fault, you can access services to ensure your
continued mobility. These services include the following: Breakdown service at
the breakdown location and towing to the ŠKODA Service Partner, technical as-
sistance by phone or on-site operation.
If your vehicle is not repaired on the same day, the ŠKODA Service Partner may
provide further services as required, such as replacement transportation (bus,
train etc.) or a courtesy vehicle etc.
More information regarding terms and conditions for the provision of a mobility
warranty for your vehicle can be obtained from your ŠKODA Partner. They will also
provide you with detailed terms and conditions for the mobility warranty with re-
spect to your vehicle. In the event that there is no mobility warranty coverage
available for your vehicle, you should check with any ŠKODA Service Partnerabout the possibility of a subsequent agreement.
Note
The mobility warranty is only available for some countries.
Optional ŠKODA extended warranty
If you received a ŠKODA extended warranty when purchasing your new car, the
two-year ŠKODA warranty for damages to your ŠKODA vehicle will be extended to your chosen duration or until the specified mileage limit has been reached, which-
ever occurs first.
The previously mentioned paint warranty and the warranty against rust perfora-
tion are unaffected by the extended warranty.
Detailed conditions for the extended warranty are included in the extended war- ranty terms and conditions, which your ŠKODA Partner will have given to you
upon purchasing your new car.
NoteThe mobility warranty and optional ŠKODA extended warranty are only available
for some countries.

Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 100.
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 ask at a specialist workshop about installing and operating mobile phones
and two-way radio systems that have 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 possible reasons for this are: › 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
where it can become 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 100.
The universal telephone pre-installation (“hands-free system”) includes a conven-ience mode for the mobile phone via voice control, the multifunction steeringwheel, the adapter, radio or the 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. 
100Using the system

Note■We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
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.

Operating the phone on the multifunction steering wheel

Multifunction steering wheel: Control buttons for the telephone
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 100.
The driver can set the basic functions of the telephone by simply operating the
buttons located on the steering wheel so that he can concentrate on the traffic
situation without being distracted as little as possible by operating the tele-
phone » Fig. 98 .
This applies only if your vehicle has been equipped with the universal telephone
preinstallation at the factory.
The buttons operate the functions for the operating mode of the current tele-
phone.

Phone PhonebookFirst read and observe the introductory information given on page 100.
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.
If the mobile phone's telephone book has more than 2,000 contacts, the follow-
ing message will appear in the MAXI DOTdisplay:

user profile.
During the connecting procedure, no other mobile phone may be connected with the hands-free system.
Up to four mobile phones can be paired with the hands-free system, whereby on- ly one mobile phone can communicate with the hands-free system.
The visibility of the hands-free system is automatically switched off 3 minutes af-
ter the ignition is switched on and is also deactivated when the mobile phone has
connected to the hands-free system.
Restoring the visibility of the hands-free system
If you have not managed to connect your mobile phone with the hands-free sys- tem within 3 minutes of switching on the ignition, the visibility of the hands-free system can be reestablished for 3 minutes in the following ways.
› By turning the ignition off and on.
› By turning voice control off and on.
› In the MAXI DOT display under menu item
Bluetooth - Visibility .
Creating a connection with an already paired mobile phone
