Note
For technical reasons it is not possible to use simultaneously the front and
rear mobile phone. Ensure that the adapter is always inserted only in
the bracket .
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
The installation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems in a vehicle
should generally be undertaken by a Škoda dealer.
Škoda Auto 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.
Our Skoda dealers are also happy to inform you about the possibilities
available for installing and operating mobile telephones and radio trans-
mitters which have an output greater than 10 watts. The Skoda dealers
can provide you with details about the technical possibilities for retrofitting
of mobile telephones and radio transmitters.
The operation of commercially available mobile phones or two-way radio
systems may cause operational problems in the electronic systems of
your car. The reasons for this may be:
•no external aerial
•external aerial incorrectly installed
•transmission power greater than 10 watts.
You should therefore not operate a mobile phone or two-way radio
system inside the vehicle without the use of an external aerial, or with
an external aerial which has been incorrectly installed.
You should also note that only an external aerial makes it possible to
achieve the optimal range of such equipment.
Note
Please also refer to the operating instructions of the mobile phones and
two-way radio systems.
Navigation system*
The controls for the navigation system, radio, CD player are located in the
centre console on both sides of the monitor screen. Navigation data is
also shown in the information display.
Please refer to the relevant operating instructions for a detailed descrip-
tion of the navigation system.

WARNING
•If a mobile phone or two-way radio system is operated inside
the vehicle without using an external aerial, or with an external
aerial which has been incorrectly installed, the result can be exces-
sive electromagnetic fields which may cause harm to your health.
•Please always pay full attention to the traffic situation around
you!
•You must not install two-way radio systems, mobile phones or
mounts on the covers of the airbags or within the immediate
deployment range of airbags. This might result in injuries to the
occupants in the event of an accident.
Fuses and light bulbs
242
Caution
•Never attempt to “repair” fuses and also do not replace them with a
fuse of a higher amperage - risk of fire! This may also cause damage at
another part of the electrical system.
•Have the electrical system checked as quickly as possible by a Škoda
dealer if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.
Fuse assignment
Certain electrical components are only standard on certain vehicle model
versions or only suppliable as optional equipment for certain models.

The power windows and the power seats are protected by
automatic
circuit breakers which switch on again automatically after a few seconds
after the overload has been eliminated - e.g. frozen windows.
Bulbs
Changing bulbs
The relevant lamp must always be switched off before a light bulb is
replaced.
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest
amount of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth,
serviette or something similar.
Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same
type. The designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something which you can do yourself, but
requires to be done by a specialist. Other parts of the vehcle must be
