General information
Owner's Manual
This Owner's manual describes 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 this Owner's manual.
The scope of equipment for your vehicle is described in the sales documentation
you were given when purchasing the car. More information is available from your
Škoda dealer.

Important information
Safety instructions
WARNING
•Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Only use the system so that you are in full control of
your vehicle in every traffic situation - risk of accident!
•Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside, e.g. sirens
from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police, ambulance and fire
brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.
•High volumes can cause hearing damage.
•For safety further information see page 31, “Safety information regarding
the use of the radio navigation system”.
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 can be
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, however,
a precondition that the housing has not been damaged and no unauthorised
attempts have been made to carry out repairs.
Note
The warranty does not relate to:
•Damage and defects due to improper handling of the equipment,
•Damage and defects from unprofessional repair attempts,
•Devices with damage to the exterior.
Screen cleaning
Caution
•Do not use solvents such as turpentine or petrol as they may 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.
Signal receipt
Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio and GPS signal
even causing it to fail completely.

General information4
Anti-theft protection
The anti-theft coding of your radio navigation system prevents an operation of the
system after a voltage interruption, e. g. owing to vehicle repair or theft. After
disconnecting the battery, disconnecting the radio navigation system from the on-
board voltage of the vehicle and after a fuse failure, the code must be entered
before the vehicle can be used again.
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. The
number of the possible attempts is shown in the second touch-screen line.
– Press a digit from to 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 (inac-
tive) and no further digits can be accepted in the entry line.
– Press the function key in the display to erase the digits in the entry line from
right to left and thereby correct your input, if necessary.
– If the correct code is displayed in the entry line, press the function key .
Code number
The code number can only be called up “online” via the Škoda system, as this guar-
antees even more effective anti-theft protection. Please contact your authorized
Škoda Service Partner, if necessary.
Incorrect code number
If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry of the code, the procedure can be
repeated once again. The number of possible attempts is shown in the second line
on the touch-screen.
If the code is entered incorrectly a 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 navigation 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.
Special functions
Parking aid
If your vehicle is equipped with a“parking aid” and after it is activated, the distance
to the obstacle is shown in the display.
Climatronic
If you vehicle is equipped with Climatronic, information from Climatronic is shown in
the display.

Voice control of the radio navigation system8
Voice control of the radio navigation system
General information
Introduction
Thanks to this equipment, you can operate a few functions of your radio navigation
system via the microphone installed in the vehicle; a so-called “Speak what you see
on the touch-screen” system.
You can use the voice control in the operating modes RADIO, MEDIA, PHONE, MAP
and NAV.
You can adjust the volume during the call at any time by turning the control button
.
Switch on voice control (dialogue)
•Press the button .
Switching off voice control (dialogue)
•After running the voice command, voice control switches off automatically.
•By pressing one of the buttons which are located on the side of the display of
the unit or by touching the display (if the button is not pressed in the help
display).
•By pronouncing the command “Cancel”.
•If the system does not receive a command or does not recognise the command
while the dialogue is switched on, it answers with the question “Pardon?” and thus
makes it possible to pronounce a new command. If the system does not receive a
second voice command, you will be offered help. If the system does not receive a
third voice command, you receive the message “Cancel” and the voice control
switches off.
Optimum understanding of the commands depends on several factors:
•Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
•Avoid a bad pronunciation.
•Do not use any abbreviations - always pronounce the full command.
•Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement. As long as the system has
not finished the announcement, it will not react to an additional command.
•Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to avoid disturbing influences
of the environment on the understanding of the commands.
•We recommend to speak louder at higher speeds; but with a calm voice, so that
the increased surrounding noise does not drown out the command.
•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.
Dialogue
The period of time in which the system is ready to receive voice commands and to
carry them out is called a dialogue. The system reacts with an audible feedback and
guides you through the individual functions.
Selecting long and short dialogue
The nature of the dialogue can be set by pressing the button on the unit and by
pronouncing the command “long dialogue” or “short dialogue”.
The dialogue type can also be set manually in operating mode SETUP →
→→or .
If you select the short dialogue, the system shortens some messages or replaces
them by an audible signal (gong), thus the operation is accelerated.
If you select the long dialogue, the system gives the whole messages without
shortening them.
The voice commands are the same for the long and short dialogue.
Interrupt messages
The message just given can be ended by pressing the button on the unit. Thus,
it is possible to pronounce an additional voice command sooner.
Voice commands
The voice control is only possible in the following languages:
Czech, English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, Italian.
Due to the large number of possible voice commands, we give here only a few
examples. Therefore, please observe the system guidelines when entering voice
commands.

Voice control of the radio navigation system 9
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 pronounced
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 pronouncing the command “Instructions”. Then you hear a
message that the instructions are divided into seven parts. If you want more
detailed information about individual parts of the instructions, pronounce for
example the command “Tutorial part 2”.
Call up the general help for individual operating modes by briefly pressing the
button on the unit and by pronouncing the command “Help Quick Commands”.
Changing between the operating modes
If you wish to change between the operating modes after switching on the voice
control, always pronounce the name of the operating mode in 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 pronounce the command “Media”. Always
pronounce 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 device automatically switches between the different operating modes.
Voice command “Help”
Help can be called up by pronouncing the command “Help”. Depending on the oper-
ating mode in which you are, the help given will offer different possibilities. If the
possibilities offered are not sufficient, pronounce the command “further options”.
If you pronounce the command “Help”, you can hear a message on how the
command should be correctly pronounced (e.g. “auto Zoom”).
Help display
If you want the help to be displayed on the display of the unit, you only need to acti-
vate it (then deactivate it) manually in the operating mode SETUP →
→.
The help display can be set separately for each operating mode in the system (this
means, if you only set the help display for the operating mode MAP, it is only
displayed in this operating mode).
The range of these commands is indicated in the pop-up window Possible
commands are:
If you do not wish the help display to be shown when the dialogue is switched on,
pronounce the command “Block out” while you are in the help display or press the
function key . The help display is shown again after repeatedly switching
on the dialogue.
Voice recording
In the operating modes PHONE, NAV and RADIO a short voice recording can be set
up; after pronouncing the recorded term the desired command is carried out (e.g. in
the operating mode PHONE, a voice recording can be set up besides a telephone
contact and after pronouncing it the system carries out the selection procedure.
Further voice commands
If you wish to scroll through the lists in the operating modes MEDIA, PHONE, NAV,
RADIO (e.g. in the operating mode RADIO in the list of the radio station), you must
pronounce the command “next page” or “previous page”.
If you are in a list in which the details are shown (e.g. in the operating modes NAV,
, ), pronounce the command “Options for entry”
and then select a number by pronouncing the command “Options for entry 3” or
“Details for entry 3”.
Certain voice commands in the operating mode RADIO
If you pronounce the command “Read station list”, the system reads the list of the
radio stations. The desired selected radio station can be selected by briefly pressing
the button on the unit during the message, then the system offers selection
possibilities for the selected entry.
If you directly pronounce a station name, the system switches over to the desired
station.
Examples for voice commands in order to operate buttons on the touch-screen of
the unit:
•“next station”
•“previous station”
Certain voice commands in the operating mode MEDIA
Examples for voice commands in order to operate buttons on the touch-screen of
the unit or examples for voice commands for which no help display is indicated:

General information for CD/DVD operation
Audio-CDs (CD-A), Audio-DVDs, MP3-CDs and MP3-DVDs as well as Video-DVDs can
be played in the internal CD/DVD drive.
Insert CD/DVD
Insert a CD/DVD with the written side facing up as far as possible into the CD/DVD
case until it is automatically drawn in. The play function will start automatically.
Remove CD/DVD
Pressing - ejects the CD/DVD.
If the “ejected” CD is not taken out within 10 seconds, it will be retracted again for
safety reasons.
CD not legible
If you insert a CD/DVD which cannot be read by the unit, a pop-up window is
displayed with a note. The CD/DVD is moved to the eject position within a few
seconds.
If the CD/DVD is not taken out within 10 seconds, it is drawn in again for safety
reasons.
CD to jump
Uneven road surfaces and strong vibrations may cause the CD to jump.
Formation of condensation
When it is cold and after rain showers, moisture can deposit in the CD/DVD drive
(condensation). This can effect the CD jump or impair the play function. In such
cases wait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CD/DVDs
If a CD/DVD is soiled, never clean it in the direction of a circle but rather from inside
to outside with a soft lint-free cloth. In case of severe layers of dirt we recommend
to clean the CD/DVD with a commercially available CD/DVD cleaner. Also in this case
do not clean the CD/DVD in the direction of a circle but rather from inside to outside
and then let it dry off.

is essential that you wait until the CD/DVD has been fully ejected before you try to
insert a new CD/DVD.
•If the CD/DVD drive becomes mechanically defective or a CD/DVD has been
inserted incorrectly or not fully, the following is initially displayed in the display
“CD/DVD fault. Check the CD/DVD.” next “CD/DVD drive error”. Please check the
CD/DVD and place it again correctly and fully into the drive. If a “CD/DVD drive fault”
is indicated again, please contact your Škoda Service Partner.
