Other possible commands
Enter PIN code
A PIN code must be entered
before operating the system.

– Give the command ENTER PIN/PIN CODE after the signal
tone.
After this command the PIN code can be entered.
The entry of the PIN code is only possible if:
•The ignition and
•the mobile phone are switched on.
The digits zero to nine are permitted. The system detects no continuous
digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken
digits (two, three). After each order of digits (separation through brief voice
pause) the detected digits are repeated.
Notes for entering the PIN code
•When entering a PIN code with more than 8 digits, the system indi-
cates “ The PIN is too long ”.
•When entering an incorrect PIN code, the system indicates “ The PIN
is incorrect ”.
•If the incorrect PIN code has been entered three times consecutively,
the card is blocked. With the aid of the personal unblocking code PUK
(Personal Unblock Key), the SIM card can be unblocked. The unblocking
code can only be entered via the phone keypad and not through the
voice control.

– Select the corresponding menu option on the mobile phone, which searches for suitable Bluetooth devices (hands-free
system).
– If the hands-free system on the display of the mobile tele- phone announces Skoda UHV, enter the PIN 1234 within 30
seconds and wait, until the connection is established.
9)
In the modern business world as well as within the private sector the
mobile communication gains increasingly on importance. Mobile phones
from different manufacturers can be connected with the hands-free
system by means of Bluetooth. During the connecting procedure, no other
mobile phone may be connected via Bluetooth with the hands-free
system.
Up to four mobile phones can be connected to the hands-free system by
means of Bluetooth, whereby only one mobile phone can communicate
via Bluetooth with the hands-free system. If a fifth mobile phone is
connected to the handsfree-system, then the telephone, which has not
been used together with the handsfree system for the longest period, is
disconnected.
Establishing the Bluetooth connection
After switching on the ignition, the Bluetooth connection is automatically
established for the already adapted mobile phone
9). You can hear an
increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
Disconnecting the Bluetooth connection
After withdrawing the ignition key, the Bluetooth connection is dison-
nected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers
of the vehicle.
WARNING
•Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you
are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Use the telephone
system only to such an extent, so that you are in full control of your
vehicle at any time - risk of accident!
•In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth function of the hands-
free-system must be switched off by a specialist garage.
Caution
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter during the call can lead to
interruption of the connection. When taking out the mobile phone, the
connection to the factory-fitted antenna is interrupted, this reduces the
quality of the transmitting and receiving signal. This might result addition-
ally in harmful radiation from the mobile phone in the interior of the vehicle
and the charging of the telephone battery is interrupted.
Note
•Not valid for all mobile phones which enable a communication via
Bluetooth.
•Please operate your mobile phone exclusively with a suitable adapter,
in order to keep a low radiation in the vehicle.
•Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal
sending and receiving power and offers at the same time the advantage
of the battery charging.
•If you insert the mobile telephone into the adapter, the connection is
established via the interface in the adapter set and the Bluetooth connec-
tion is disconnected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the
loudspeakers of the vehicle.
•Note that the range of the Bluetooth connection to the handsfree-
system is limited to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local
factors, e.g. obstacles between the devices and interferences with other 9)Some mobile phones have a menu, in which the authorization for establishing a
Bluetooth connection is performed via the input of a code. If the input for the au-
thorization is necessary, it must always be performed when re-establishing the
Bluetooth connection.

Seat belts185
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
Important safety information regarding
the use of seat belts
The correct use of the seat belts considerably reduces the
risk of injury!
WARNING
•The belt webbing must not be jammed in-between at any point
or twisted, or chafe against any sharp edges.
•It is important that the belt webb ing is properly routed if the seat
belts are to offer their maximum protection ⇒page 186, “How are
seat belts correctly fastened?”.
•No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat
belt together.
•The maximum protection which seat belts can offer is only
achieved if you are correctly seated ⇒page 179, “Correct seated
position”.
•The belt webbing must not run across solid or fragile objects
(e.g. spectacles, ball-point pens, keys etc.) as this may be a cause
of injuries.
•Bulky, loose clothing (e.g. a winter coat over a jacket) does not
allow you to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of
the seat belts.
•It is prohibited to use clamps or other objects to adjust seat
belts (e.g. for shortening the belts for smaller persons).
•The lock tongue should only be inserted into the lock which is
the correct one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will
reduce its capacity to protect and the risk of injury increases.
•The backrests of the front seats must not be tilted too far to the
rear otherwise the seatbelts can lose their effectiveness.
•The belt webbing must always be kept clean. Soiled belt
webbing may impair proper operation of the inertia reel ⇒page 240,
“Seat belts”.
•The slot of the belt tongue must not be blocked by paper or
similar objects otherwise the belt tongue will not lock in place prop-
erly.
•Inspect the seat belts regularly to ensure they are in good condi-
tion. If you find seat belts which have damage to the seat belt
webbing, seat belt connections, to the inertia reels or to the lock,
the relevant safety belt must be replaced by a specialist garage.
•The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do
not make an attempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
•Damaged seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an
accident and were therefore stretched, must be replaced - this is
best done by a specialist garage. The anchorage points of the belts
must also be inspected. The anchorage points for the belts should
also be checked.
•In certain countries it is possible to use seat belts which differ
in terms of their operation from the seat belts which are described
on the pages which follow.
