Brief introduction

Current road traffic is more and more
demanding on a driver's attention.
Modern car radios offer extensive and
sophisticated functions, offering both fun and
various traffic information.
You should only operate the radio and its
features when the traffic situation allows you to
do so.
For example: changing the discs, reading the
booklets etc. when driving has resulted in
many critical situations.Always set the volume at a level which does not
prevent you from hearing outside sounds.
Always concentrate primarily on driving!
If you are uncertain about some functions of
the radio, or if unexpected behaviour appears,
always consult the manual after stopping the
car at a safe location, or please do not hesilate
to contact your Škoda Service Partner or
importeur.Note: the texts marked with * are applicable
only to selected car models, or to cars with
extra (optional) equipment.
