Unlocking and locking
42
So long as the child safety lock is switched on it is not possible to open the
door from the inside with the door opening lever. In this case the door can
be opened only from the outside.
Central locking system
Description
Unlocking or locking the vehicle causes all doors to be unlocked or locked
at the same time by the central locking system. The boot lid is unlocked
when opening. It can be opened by pressing the hand grip above the
licence plate.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:
•from the outside using the vehicle key ⇒page 43
•using the buttons for the central locking system ⇒page 44
•by using the radio remote control ⇒page 47
Convenience operation of windows
One can open and close the electrically powered windows when unlocking
and locking the vehicle ⇒page 52, “Convenience operation of windows”.
The electric sliding/tilting roof* can only be closed by the central locking
system.
Opening a single door*
This function allows one to just unlock the driver's door. The other doors
remain locked and are only unlocked when the command is repeated. The
single door opening function can be first activated by recoding the control
unit of the central locking system. This work is undertaken by a Škoda
dealer which can give you more information. Automatic locking*
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car
reaches a speed of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked
again. In addition, it is possible for the driver to unlock the car by pressing
the central locking button
 or by pulling the door opening lever.
If you wish, your Škoda Dealer can convert the central locking system of
your car to the automatic locking mode.
WARNING
Locking the doors prevents involuntary opening in an exceptional
situation (an accident). Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into
the vehicle from outside, for example at road crossings. Locked
doors do, however, make it more difficult for rescuers to get into
the vehicle in an emergency - danger to life!
Note
•After unlocking the vehicle see, if the securing knobs are located on all
doors at the bottom.
•In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the
locked doors are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to
gain access to the vehicle.
•Should the central locking system not operate properly, you can lock
and unlock the front doors and the boot lid with the key. Emergency
unlocking of fuel filler flap ⇒page 217.

Safe securing
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system.
Locking the vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automat-
ically blocked. It is not possible to pull out the locking buttons. The indi-
cator light in the driver's door flashes. It is not possible to open the doors
with the door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts
as an effective deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system. This is done by locking the
vehicle with the key or radio-operated key twice within 2 seconds.
Deactivating the safe securing system means that the warning light next
to the securing knob in the driver's door will not flash. This is not the case,
however, for an activated anti-theft alarm system* since the indicator light
is showing that the system is active ⇒page 49.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is
unlocked and locked again.
The doors can be opened from the inside if the vehicle is locked and the
safe securing system is deactivated:
•The door is unlocked by actuating the door-opening lever.
•The door opens upon actuating the door-opening lever again.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing
system is activated, there must not be any person and animals in
the vehicle as it is then not poss ible to open either a door or a
window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
The anti-theft alarm system is also armed when the car is closed without
activating the safe securing system. In this case, always switch off the
interior monitoring sensor* ⇒page 50 first of all to avoid an alarm being
triggered unintentionally.
Unlocking the vehicle using the key
– Turn the key in the lock of the driver's door to the left into the opening position ⇒ fig. 23.
– Pull on the door handle and open the door.
•All doors are unlocked (the securing knobs must move upwards).
•The boot lid is then unlocked.
•The switched on interior lights come on over the door contact.

to insert the key into the ignition lock and switch the ignition on within 15
seconds after opening the door. The alarm will be triggered if you do not
switch on the ignition within 15 seconds.

•Never drive with the boot lid slightly ajar or even fully opened
otherwise exhaust gases may get into the interior of the vehicle -
risk of poisoning!
Note
After closing the boot lid, it is automatically locked within 5 seconds
and the anti-theft alarm system* is activated. This applies only if the
vehicle was locked before closing the boot lid.
Remote control
Description
You can use the remote control:
•to unlock and lock the car,
•unlocking boot lid,
•opening and closing window.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the master key.
The receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the
remote control is 10 metres but this range can be reduced if the batteries
are waek.
The master key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking
and locking the car manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or a new
unit installed, it is then necessary for a Škoda Dealer to initialise the
system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
•The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is
switched on.
•The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by
interference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the
same frequency range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
•The battery must be replaced, ideally by the Škoda dealer, if the
central locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control
at less than 3 metres away.

Deactivating safe securing system
– Press button twice in 2 seconds. Further information ⇒page 43.
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been
unlocked. If you unlock the car with button but do not open a door or
the boot lid within the next 30 seconds, the car locks again automatically.
This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentionally.
The safe securing system along with the anti-theft alarm system* are,
however, deactivated during these 30 seconds.
If the single door opening function has been activated on your car, you
unlock only the driver door by pressing button once and the complete
vehicle by pressing the button twice ⇒page 42.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the power seats and exterior mirrors
move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver
seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved automatically.
When the vehicle is unlocked or locked, the interior lights in the door
contact are automatically switched on or off.
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been
correctly locked. If the turn signal lights do not flash, check the doors,
bonnet and boot lid again to ensure that they are closed. If the doors, the
bonnet or the boot lid remain open when the anti-theft alarm system is
activated, the turn signal lights do not flash until after they have been
closed.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing
system is activated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as
it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the
inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get
into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard!
Note
•Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are
closed and you have visual contact with the vehicle.
•Once in the car, you must not press the lock button  of the master key
before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being
inadvertently locked and, in addition, the anti-theft alarm system* being
switched on. Should this happen, press the unlock button
 of the master
key.
Synchonisation of the remote control
If the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuating the remote control system
then it is possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle
are no longer synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-
operated key are actuated a number of times outside of the operative
range of the equipment or the battery on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
•Press any button on the remote control.
•Pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key
within 1 minute.
