Anti-theft alarm system*
Description
The anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against
people seeking to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and
visual warning signals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle.
How is the alarm system switched on?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated automatically when the vehicle is
locked with the key on the closed driver's door or by using the remote
control. It is activated 30 seconds after closing the door.
How is the alarm system switched off?
The anti-theft alarm system is switched off if the vehicle is unlocked by
only using the remote control. The vehicle is automatically locked again if
the vehicle is not opened within 30 seconds after reactivating the anti-theft
alarm system.
Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the key into the driver door you
then have to insert the key into the ignition lock and switch the ignition on
within 15 seconds after opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-
theft alarm system. The alarm will be triggered if you do not switch on
the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered?
The following security areas of the locked vehicle are monitored:
•bonnet,
•boot lid,
•doors,
•ignition lock,
•vehicle interior* ⇒page 50,
•a drop in voltage of the on-board power supply. 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.

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 75, fig. 56
with one-touch. The seat and the exterior mirrors now move
automatically into the stored position.
