Theft Protection
It is necessary to enter the code, when the
system has been disconnected from the vehicle's
power supply or when a fuse has „blown“.
In this case,
SAFE will appear in the display when
the system is switched on.
The code number can be found along with
the serial number of the unit in the front of the
instruction manual on the equipment card.
Make sure to remove the equipment card from
the manual and keep it in a safe place outside
of the vehicle.
Note: As a rule, the code is stored in the
instrument cluster. As a result, the code
will be entered into the radio navigation
system automatically (convenience coding).
It is not usually necessary to enter the code
manually.Anti-theft coding
The anti-theft coding system for your radio
n a v i g a t i o n s y s t e m p r e v e n t s u n a u t h o r i s e d
persons from using the system once it has been
disconnected from its power source, e.g. while
the vehicle is being repaired or if the system is
stolen.
Cancelling the anti-theft coding
The electronic block can only be cancelled when
the correct code number is entered.
Proceed as follows:
• Switch the system on.
SAFE will appear in the display. After 2 seconds,
you will be required to enter the correct code
number. 1000 will appear in the display.
• Press station preset 1 until the first digit of the
code appears in the display.
• Press station preset 2 to enter the second
digit of the code.
• Press station presets 3 and 4 to enter the third
and fourth digit of the code.
• Once you have entered the code completely,
press the menu knob , or for at least two seconds.

INTRODUCTION
Entering the incorrect code number
If you inadvertently enter and confirm an inco
-
rrect code number, SAFE will appear again in
the display. First flashing and then permanently.
The following message will appear in the status
line of the display:
WRONG TRIES : 1
Now you can enter the code number again.
If you enter the code number incorrectly a second
time, the system will be blocked for one hour.
Once the hour waiting period has elapsed, it will
be possible to enter the code again. During the
waiting period, you must leave the system swit-
ched on with the ignition key in the ignition.
After an hour has elapsed you can enter the code
number once again. If an incorrect code number
is entered twice, the system will be blocked again
for one hour.
Note: If you have lost your equipment card
with the code, please contact your Škoda
Service Centre.
Switching the system on/off
The audio source or navigation status (if the last
route guidance was no longer than 30 minutes
ago) used last before the system was switched
off will be activated.
If the ignition key has been removed, it is possible
to switch on the system for approx. one hour by
pressing the left-hand rotary/push button .
To prevent the battery from running down, the
system will switch off again automatically. You
can repeat this process as often as desired.
When the system has been switched off and the
ignition key removed, a LED will begin to flash
after a short pause to indicate that the system is
protected by anti-theft coding.
Switching the system on
• Press the rotary/pushbutton to switch the system on.
Note: If the system remains mute and "SAFE"
appears in the display when you switch it on,
please refer to the information on page 19 .
22RADIO NAVIGATION SYSTEM
AUDIO OPERATION
Radio operation with RDS
RDS (Radio Data System)
RDS (Radio Data System) is always active for
the radio navigation system.
In addition to their regular programming, an in-
creasing number of radio stations also transmits
RDS information that is picked up and evaluated
by the RDS receiver in coded form.
This information includes the radio station name
and the traffic information status for the radio
station selected.
Alternate frequency
The alternate frequency function ensures that the
system always tunes into the best frequency for
the currently selected radio station.
The radio may briefly switch to mute while sear -
ching for the frequency with the best reception.
If the system is unable to find an alternate fre-
quency for the station selected and it is no lon -
ger possible to pick up this station in satisfactory
quality, please select another station.
Radio operation
TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
In addition to their regular programming, a num -
ber of radio stations also transmits digital traffic
information on the Traffic Message Channel.
These messages are picked up by your naviga -
tion system and can be used for dynamic route
guidance (see Selecting route options , page 48
and Activating the traffic congestion function ,
page 58). If a radio station provides TMC service,
TMC will appear in the status line of the display.
TMC stations can be stored in the TC1 and TC2
memory banks. RDS Regional
Radio stations sometimes divide their pro-
gramming into regional programming at certain
times of the day.
At first, the system will tune into only those
alternative frequencies for the radio station
selected.
However, if the reception quality deteriorates to
the point that the radio might “lose” the station,
the system will also switch to frequencies used
by a "related" NDR 1 station. Because these
radio stations sometimes broadcast different
contents, this might mean that you will hear a
different programme.
Switching to regionally related stations
As a rule, the system will only switch to other
frequencies for the same station with the same
PI code. However, if the reception deteriorates
beyond a certain point, the system will also au-
tomatically switch to a regionally related broad-
casting network.
