Introductory information
Please read this Radio Swing (hereinafter 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.
This Owner's Manual describes all possible equipment variants without identify-
ing them as special equipment, model variants or market-driven equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in these operating instructions.
The scope of equipment of your vehicle relates to your purchase contract for the vehicle. 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 provided in your vehicle's owner's manual. Therefore, they can be used
only in conjunction with the latest manual for this vehicle. For a detailed descrip-
tion of some of the functions listed in these instructions, see the owner's manual for your vehicle.
If you have any questions about your device, please contact a ŠKODA Partner.
The illustrations can differ in minor details from your device; they are only inten-
ded for general information.

Device operation
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 such 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 care
CAUTION
■ Do not use solvents such as benzine or turpentine, which may damage the
screen surface.■
Treat the screen with care. 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.
Anti-theft protection
Anti-theft coding
Your device is equipped with a convenience coding. If the device is being operat-
ed 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, you must first switch on the ig-
nition using the ignition key before switching on the device.
If you want to install the device in another vehicle you will need to enter the safe-ty code. In this case you will have to call on a specialist garage. 

Explanation of terms
» Owner's Manual , chapter Foreword .
2General information

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.
Enter code
›
Switch on the radio with the ignition turned on.
›
Use the selection buttons 1 - 4
12

» Fig. 1 on page 3 to enter the safety
code.
›
Confirm the safety code by pressing the selection buttons 6
12
.
If an incorrectly entered code is confirmed, the procedure can be repeated once
again.
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 the safety code again after
one hour has expired if both the device and the ignition have stayed turned on
during that time.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - will continue to apply.
