Unlocking and locking49
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is
disconnected while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
If you unlock and open the boot lid with the key, the alarm is immediately
triggered.
How is the alarm switched off?
You switch the alarm off if you unlock the car with the radio remote control
in the key or if you switch the ignition on.
Indicator light (LED)
The LED in the top of the door trim on the driver door first of all flashes
rapidly after the car is locked, then slowly. This indicates that the anti-theft
alarm system
including the interior monitor* is activated.
Note
•The working life of the alarm siren is 5 years. More detailed information
is available from your Škoda dealer.
•Before leaving the car, check that all the doors, windows and the elec-
tric sliding/tilting roof* are properly closed in order to ensure that the anti-
theft alarm system is fully operational.
•Coding of the radio remote control and the receptor part precludes the
use of the radio remote control from other vehicles.
Interior monitor* 
The interior monitor detects movements inside the car and
then triggers the alarm.
You can switch the interior monitor off if, for example, an animal
or other moving objects inside the car might trigger the alarm.
Switching interior monitor off
– Press the button
 on the center column at the driver's side
⇒ fig. 28 .
– Lock the car.
The interior monitor is switched on again automatically the next time the
car is locked.

windows! A person may otherwise suffer severe injuries as a result
of getting an arm, for example, jammed in the window!
Note
After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the
windows for a further 10 minutes. The automatic closing and opening
functions will not operate during this time. The power windows are
switched off completely once you open the driver or front passenger
door.
Convenience operation of windows
You can open and close the electrically powered windows as
follows when unlocking and locking the vehicle (just closing of the
sliding roof).
Opening windows with the key

position or press the opening button of the remote control until
all the windows are open.
Closing windows with the key
– Turn the key in the lock of the driver door into the closing posi- tion or press the closing button of the remote control until all
the windows are closed ⇒.
You can interrupt the opening or closing operation of the windows imme-
diately by releasing the key of the button of the remote control.

•Obstruction protection is not active during the convenience
operating feature ⇒ in “Switches in front passenger door and in
rear doors” on page 51.
•You should take particular care when closing the windows! A
person may otherwise suffer severe injuries as a result of getting
an arm, for example, jammed in the window!
Operational problems

automatic closing and opening function does not operate. The system
must be activated. Proceed as follows in order to re-establish the function:

hold it there until all of the windows are closed.
•Release the key.
•Insert the key again and turn it to the closing position for about 3
seconds.

result in a greater resistance when closing the windows and the window
may stop and move back several centimetres
Proceed as follows to close the window fully:
•Turn the key in the lock of the driver door into the closing position and
hold it there until all of the windows are closed.
•Repeat this operatiive cycle when the window stops.

when the sliding/tilting roof is closed. (This does not apply for models fitted
with sliding/tilting roof with solar cells, in which the sun screen is a fixed
element.)
Caution
It may be necessary during winter to remove any ice and snow in the area
of the sliding/tilting roof before opening it in order to prevent damaging the
opening mechanism.

Safety closing
The sliding/tilting roof is equipped with an overload protection system. The
sliding/tilting roof stops and moves back several centimetres when it
cannot be closed because there is something in the way (e.g. ice). You
can close the sliding/tilting roof completely without overload protection by
pressing the switch to the position ⇒page 53, fig. 31 at the front for as
long as it takes for the sliding/tilting roof to shut completely ⇒.

tion or press the closing button of the remote control until the
sliding/tilting roof is closed ⇒.
The closing process stops when one releases the key or the button.
WARNING
Close the sliding/tilting roof carefully - risk of injury! The overload
protection system does not function with the convenience
closing.

Note
•When storing settings with the memory buttons, we recommend that
you begin with the front button and assign a memory button to each addi-
tional driver.
•Each new setting stored with the same button erases the previous
setting.
•Each time you store the seat and exterior mirror settings for driving
forward you also have to re-store the individual setting of the exterior
mirror on the passenger side for reversing.
Assigning remote control to the memory buttons
After storing the settings of the seat and exterior mirrors, you
have 10 seconds in order to assign the remote control to the
appropriate memory button.
– Withdraw the ignition key.
– Press the release button ⇒page 47 and hold it pressed for 1
second until an audible signal confirms that the setting has
been stored. The setting is stored with the memory button
which you have selected.
If you wish to be able to retrieve the settings which are stored in the
memory by also using the remote control, you have to assign the remote
control to a memory button in each case.
We recommend that you assign one of the two remote controls supplied
with your car, to the front memory button, and the other remote control key
to the middle memory button. If you wish, you can obtain an additional key with radio remote control from
a Škoda dealer and then assign the radio remote control to the rear
memory button.
Note
•If the remote control had previously been assigned to another memory
button, this setting is then erased by the new assignment.
•If you assign the remote control to a memory button which has already
been assigned to a remote control, the old assignment is also replaced by
a new assignment in this case.
•The assignment of the remote control to a memory button is retained,
however, after reassigning the seats and exterior mirrors.
Retrieving seat and exterior mirror settings for driving
forward
You can retrieve the stored settings either with the
memory buttons or with the remote control*.
Retrieving settings with memory buttons
– For safety reasons, you can only retrieve the seat and mirror
settings if the ignition is switched off. You have a choice of two
different ways of retrieving the settings:
– One-touch automatic memory: with the driver door open,
operate the desired memory button ⇒ page 72, fig. 52
with one-touch. The seat and the exterior mirrors now move
automatically into the stored position.
