Overview
Dear Customer,
In teh event that you did not receive the secu-
rity code for your radio, this is because your
car is equiped with the convenience system
of coding for which this code is not needed. In
the battery is disconnected and then re-con-
nected, first of all switch the ignition on with
the key and then, after this, the radio. Should
you nevertheless wish to have the security
code, please contact your Škoda dealer.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Operating the radio whilst driving
Modern traffic conditions demand the constant
attention of road users.
Besides a wealth of entertainment, modern car
radios, with their range of sophisticated features,
also provide a great deal of information about
traffic and road conditions, etc.
However, the radio, with all its possibilities,
should only be used if conditions really al-
low it.
For example, changing CDs or reading CD labels
while driving has frequently led to dangerous situ-
ations.
The volume of the radio should also be set so
that acoustic signals from outside can also be
heard.Warning
Please concentrate on your driving above
all!
Convenience radio coding
In the past one had to recode the radio manually
every time the unit was removed or when the
vehicle battery had been disengaged.
That has all changed with the new convenience
radio coding function: Once the code number has
been input in the radio, it will then synchronise
itself with „its“ vehicle!
If the current supply has been interrupted the radio
will automatically check to see if it is still in „its“
vehicle after the ignition has been switched on. If
it is happy, the radio will be ready for use after just
a few seconds.
It is therefore no longer necessary to disengage
the electronic lock manually!
CD changer
This car radio also has the attractive option of
controlling the genuine Škoda CD changer1).
The operation of the unit is described in a sepa-
rate manual.
Qualified dealers have all the information con-
cerning the retrofitting of these units.
Safety precautions for items of equipment
fitted with lasers
Laser devices are classified by DIN IEC 76 (CO)
6/VDE 0837 into safety classes 1 to 4.
The Škoda CD changer corresponds to safety
class 1.
The laser used in units of class 1 is of low energy
or is shielded, so that there is no danger when
being correctly used.
Do not remove the unit’s cover. It does not
have any parts which can be serviced by the
user.
1) Can be delivered as fitted from the factory. The units should be fitted by a Škoda dealer if to be
installed at a later date.

Tips on CD operation
To ensure perfect, high-quality CD reproduction,
only clean, undamaged CDs should be used.
Please do not stick any labels onto the CD’s.
Compact discs not being used should always be
stored in the CD rack from the Genuine Škoda
accessories range or in the original box.
Never leave CDs exposed to direct sunlight!
Notes on cleaning compact discs
Use a soft, lint-free cloth to clean CDs. Wipe the
disc in a straight line from the centre outwards.
Stubborn soiling can be removed with a commer-
cial CD cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
Never use fluids like petrol, paint thinner or
record cleaner, as these can damage the sur-
face of the CD!
Radio and CD operation
1 - Rotary/Push knob
The knob serves:
lSwitching on/off (ON/OFF).
l V
olume control (VOLUME).
Switching on/off (ON/OFF)
Briefly press the knob to switch the radio on
and off .
The
frequency and volume settings used before
the radio was last switched off will be reacti-
vated.
If the radio is on when the key is removed from
the ignition, it automatically switches off.
The radio will switch on automatically if the key is
replaced in the ignition. The radio can be switched on again when the
ignition key has been removed by pressing the
rotary/push knob
1. It will then switch off auto-
matically approximately 1 hour later to ensure
that the battery does not run flat.
This procedure can, however, be repeated as
often as required.
When the unit is switched off and the ignition key
has been removed, a flashing diode (see page
16) indicates that the radio is equipped with an
activated Anti-Theft Code.
If the radio unit makes no noise after switching on
and „SAFE“ is shown in the display, please refer
to the operating notes as of page 20.
Volume control (VOLUME)
The volume can be set by turning the knob .
„VOLUME“ is shown in the display with a settings
bar. The bar shows the change in volume.
The settings bar will disappear approximately 5
seconds after the volume has been altered.
Note
If the minimum volume is selected, the settings
bar will be shown with „MIN“ additionally in the
display.

CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENT
Anti-theft coding
When the unit is switched off and the ignition key
has been removed, the flashing diode 8 will show
that the radio has anti-theft coding.
The anti-theft coding will electronically prevent
unauthorized persons from operating the unit if it
has been removed from the vehicle.
Convenience radio coding
For technical reasons, the convenience radio cod-
ing is not available for all vehicle models.
In the past one had to recode the radio manually
every time the unit was removed or when the
vehicle battery had been disengaged.
That has all changed with the new convenience
radio coding function: Once the code number
has been input in the radio it will then be stored
in the vehicle!
If the current supply has been interrupted the radio
will automatically compare „its“ code number with
the one stored in the vehicle. If the code numbers
are identical the radio will be ready for use after
just a few seconds.
It is therefore no longer necessary to disengage
the electronic lock manually!
If the code numbers are not identical, however,
because the radio has been fitted to another ve-
hicle, for example, the electronic lock will have to
be disengaged manually.In teh event that you did not receive the secu-
rity code for your radio, this is because your
car is equiped with the convenience system
of coding for which this code is not needed. In
the battery is disconnected and then re-con-
nected, first of all switch the ignition on with
the key and then, after this, the radio. Should
you nevertheless wish to have the security
code, please contact your Škoda dealer.
Cancelling the electronic lock
If the radio was installed in another vehicle,
„SAFE“ will appear in the display after the radio
is switched on.
To cancel the electronic lock, you must enter the
correct
code number.
It is essential that the following steps be carried
out in the correct order:
l Turn on the radio - the word „SAFE“ appears
in the display
.
l „1000“
will appear in the display after approxi-
mately 3 seconds.
If, however, „SAFE“ is still shown - together
with a small „2“ - in the left of the display,
the radio is blocked! The radio must remain
switched on for 1 hour to lift this block.
lInput
the code number attached to the code
card using the station buttons (9).
Use button 1 to input the first digit of
the code
number, button 2 to input the second digit ,
and so on. l
Then press either the search or the manual
setting
rocker switch for longer than 2 seconds.
Release button!
l A
frequency will be shown automatically shortly
after the correct code has been input.
The radio can now be used again!
Incorrect Code Number
Should

you inadvertently input the incorrect code
number in attempting to release the electronic
lock, the word „SAFE“ will appear in the display
- first flashing and then permanently.
You can now repeat the entire cancelling proce-
dure once . The number of attempts will be shown
in the display.
If you input another incorrect number, your ra-
dio will be blocked for approximately one hour,
i.e. the radio cannot be turned on. This will be
indicated through the small „2“ in the bottom
left of the display. After an hour, the radio must
remain switched on, the display with the number
of attempts goes out and you can cancel the
electronic lock as described above.
T

his cycle - two attempts, one hour lock - will
remain the same.
