Important information
Warranty
The same warranty terms apply for the equipment as for new vehicles.
After the expiration of the warranty, a unit in need of repair will be replaced inex-
pensively with a reconditioned, original unit with spare part warranty. However it is
required that there is no housing damage and no unauthorised repair attempts
have been made.
Note
A damage in the sense of the warranty must not be the result from improper
handling of the system or from unprofessional repair attempts. In addition, no
external damage must be present.
Radio mode
The radio should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it.
The volume settings must be selected in such a way that acoustic signals from the
outside, such as e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police cars, ambulances
and fire brigade), can be heard at any time.

WARNING
Please always pay full attention to the traffic situation around you! As the
driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Only use the functions
in such a way that you always maintain the control over your vehicle in all
traffic situations!
Using the display
Carefully handle the display because dents and scratches can occur through pres-
sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects.
The display can be cleaned with a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away
with pure alcohol.
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will corrode the display
surface.
Anti-theft protection
Anti-theft coding
Your radio is equipped with a convenience coding. If the radio is being operated 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, first of all switch on the ignition
and then the radio.
If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be entered.
In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a Škoda Service Partner or a Škoda
importer.
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. Through this it is automatically
decoded (convenience coding). A manual entry of the code is normally not
necessary.
Enter code
Switch on the radio if the ignition is on. SAFE is displayed and then
1000.
Enter the safety code using the station keys - .
Confirm the safety code by pressing the station key .
If you have confirmed a wrongly entered code, you can repeat once again the entire
process.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the second time, the unit will be
blocked for approx. one hour. It is only possible to repeat the entry of the safety
code after an hour has expired and while the unit is switched on and the ignition
key remains in the ignition lock.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - furthermore applies.
Basic setting
Switching the unit on and off
The system is switched on or off by pressing the rotary/push knob .
If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock when the system is switched on, the
system switches off automatically. You can switch on again the unit by pressing the
rotary/push knob . If the engine is switched off, the unit (protection of the vehicle
battery before discharging) switches off automatically after approx. one hour.

(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 CDs
If a CD is soiled, please never clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather with
a soft fluffly cloth from inside to outside. In case of severe layers of dirt we recom-
mend to clean the CD with a commercially available CD cleaner. Also in this case do
not clean the CD in the direction of a circle but rather from inside to outside and
then let it dry off.
