When storing RDS stations you should
press the corresponding station button
only when the station name appears in
the display. This ensures that all RDS
information has been interpreted and
stored automatically.
When calling up stored RDS stations,
the corresponding station name is display-
ed. If the stored frequency is too weak for
good reception, the radio searches auto-
matically for an appropriate alternative fre-
quency (best station function).
If non of the stored alternative frequencies
is strong enough for good reception, the
desired station cannot be received at the
moment. In this case, tune to another sta-
tion.
!Please make sure that the station
name is displayed when the station
is stored. If a moving text should be
displayed, this will be stored
instead of the station name.
Information about How does RDS work?
RDS stations
In many European countries, RDSis al-
ready transmitted by many radio stations.
The goal is to provide an overall coverage.
With this system, an inaudible digitized
data current is transmitted in addition to
the normal FM radio signal, providing the
RDS receiver with information in encoded
form which controls, among other things,
the following functions:
• Programme identification (PI code)
With the help of the PI code, the radio
recognizes the currently received station.
• Programme service name (PS code)
The PS code transmits the station name
which is shown in the display.• Alternative frequencies (AF code)
Because of the limited transmission
range of the FM waves, the programme
of one radio provider is transmitted by
several stations on different frequencies.
The AF code informs the radio about all
alternative frequencies of the same pro-
gramme.
This enables the radio to tune to the fre-
quency which can be received in the best
quality.
Tuning to another frequency is carried
out in an inaudible way.
The station name in the display remains
unchanged.
While you are driving, the RDS radio
searches permanently for alternative
frequencies of the station selected and
tunes to this in an automatic and nearly
inaudible way.
• Traffic programme identification (TP code = Traffic programme)
This information tells the radio that it is
currently receiving a traffic programme
station.
RADIO MODE

ßQ– AIM button
Using the AIM function (Automatic Infor-
mation Memory), you may store automati-
cally up to 9 traffic announcements with a
total length of 4 minutes with the help of
the integrated digital voice memory.
Storing traffic announcements
There are 3 different possibilities of storing
traffic announcements:
• When the radio is switched on, every traffic announcement of the station tuned
to is stored as soon as the “TP” function
has been selected ("TP" in the display).
TP

ß?– TP button
The TP standby mode allows you to hear
only traffic announcements. Even if the
volume is set to minimum, the traffic an-
nouncements are heard with the program-
med volume – see also page 17. If the
transmission range of the traffic station
tuned to is left, the radio will start after
about 30 seconds an automatic station
search.
Interrupting a traffic announcement
You may wish to interrupt a traffic an-
nouncement in certain situations, for
example
– if the announcement does not concern your route,
– if the announcement is very long and the part concerning you is already com-
pleted.
Briefly press the TP button
ß?while the
announcement you wish to abort is heard.
The announcement will be aborted and
the previous mode, for example radio
reception, cassette or CD play, is conti-
nued. A new traffic announcement will be
heard again.
To switch definitely off all traffic an-
nouncements, deselect the TP range.

At tape end, the cassette side changes
automatically (Autoreverse).
Cassette ejection
• Press and hold down the button
7
during cassette play to eject the cassette
(motor ejection).
When in cassette mode, the MSS system
searches automatically the beginning of
the next or of the current music piece and
starts playback.
To select the desired search direction,
briefly press
or of the rocker ß`.
The search direction is indicated in the
display.
"MSS FOR" – forward,
"MSS REV" – reverse.
!The pauses between the music
pieces must last at least 3 seconds
to ensure the MSS function.
When the TP function is activated during
cassette mode, cassette play is automati-
cally interrupted during a traffic announce-
ment so that this can be heard.
If the transmission range of the traffic
station tuned to is left, the radio will auto-
matically search a new traffic radio station.
Briefly press the TP button
7if you wish
to abort a traffic announcement and to
continue cassette play.
A new traffic announcement is heard
again.

For more information, contact a Skoda
service point.
Display
Frequency, station name, waveband,
station button, TP (traffic programme),
cassette functions, CD functions (only
with connected CD changer/CD player).
Max. output power
4 x 20 Watt (max.),
4 x 17 Watt (to DIN in 4 Ohm).
Illumination
Anti-glare illumination of the control ele-
ments and the display when the vehicle
illumination is switched on (night design).
The brightness can be adjusted together
with the instrument board illumination.
Waveband selection
By touch buttons.
Cassette player
Wear-resisting high-performance sound
head, automatic tape type recognition,
rocker for fast forward and rewind, electro-
motoric cassette ejection, automatic stop
at tape end and switch-over to radio
reception in the case of traffic announce-
ments, automatic change of cassette side
at tape end (autoreverse), music search
system (MSS).
Theft protection
Electronic security system locking the
radio when the power supply is discon-
nected. The radio can be put into opera-
tion again only by entering the correct
code number.
Reception ranges
FM, AM (MW).
Interference suppression
The automatic interference suppression
integrated in the radio eliminates most
interferences during FM reception.
Special intereference suppression circuits
eliminate most interfering impulses gene-
rated by the motor and other parts of the
electrical system, for example, ventilator,
windscreen wiper, etc.
Station selection
Automatic play of the last station tuned to
(last station memory) in radio mode.
Six station buttons each for AM1/AM2,
FM1/FM2. Direct manual tuning for RDS
stations. Manual tuning possible in the
direction of high or low frequencies. Micro-
computer-controlled stabilization of the
transmission frequencies (PLL quarz-
tuning).
Traffic radio programme functions
Automatic station search, automatic traffic
announcements, switch-over to mono
during traffic announcements.
Audio functions
Stereo (radio, cassette and CD), active
tone control, sound balance control inte-
grated in the radio, speed-dependent volu-
me control (GALA), multiple loudspeaker
system.
