After this command the PIN code can be entered.
The entry of the PIN code is only possible if:

The digits zero to nine are permitted. The system detects no continuous digit combinations such as twenty-three, but only individually spoken digits (two, three). After each order of digits (separation through brief voice pause) the detected digits are repeated.
Notes for entering the PIN code
•When entering a PIN code with more than 8 digits, the system indicates “ The PIN is too long”.
•When entering an incorrect PIN code, the system indicates “The PIN is incorrect ”.
•If the incorrect PIN code has been entered three times consecutively, the card is blocked. With the aid of the personal unblocking code PUK (Personal Unblock Key), the SIM card can be unblocked. The unblocking code can only be entered via the phone keypad and not through the voice control.

with the hands-free system . If a fifth mobile phone is connected to the hands- free-system, then the telephone, which has been used together with the hands- free system for the shortest period, is disconnected.
Establishing the Bluetooth connection
After switching on the ignition, the Bluetooth connection is automatically established for the already adapted mobile phone 3). You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
Disconnecting the Bluetooth connection
After withdrawing the ignition key, the Bluetooth connection is disonnected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the vehicle.
WARNING
•Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety . Use the telephone system only to such an extent, so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time - risk of accident!
•In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth function of the handsfree-system must be switched off by a specialist garage.
Caution
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter during the call can lead to interrup- tion of the connection. When taking ou t the mobile phone, the connection to the factory-fitted antenna is interrupted, this reduces the quality of the trans- mitting and receiving signal. This might result additionally in harmful radiation from the mobile phone in the interior of the vehicle and the charging of the tele- phone battery is interrupted.
Note
•Not valid for all mobile phones whic h enable a communication via Blue- tooth.
•Please operate your mobile phone excl usively with a suitable adapter, in order to keep a low radiation in the vehicle.
•Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal sending and receiving power and offers at the sa me time the advantage of the battery charging.
•If you insert the mobile telephone into the adapter, the connection is estab- lished via the interface in the adapte r set and the Bluetooth connection is disconnected. You can hear an increa sing tone sequence from the loud- speakers of the vehicle.
•Note that the range of the Bluetooth connection to the handsfree-system is limited to the vehicle interior. The rang e is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles between the devices and interferences with other devices. If your mobile phone is e.g. in a jacket pocket, th is can lead to difficulties when estab- lishing the Bluetooth connection with the handsfree-system or the data transfer.
•If you have set the Portugue se language in the information display, it is used automatically for the mobile phone operation, as this is the language, which was entered during coding of the handsfree-system.
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
We recommend that you have the installation of a mobile phone and two-way radio system in a vehicle carried out by a Škoda Service Partner.
Škoda Auto a.s. permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems with a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmis- sion power of up to 10 watts.
Our Škoda Service Partners are also happy to inform you about the possibilities available for installing and operating mobile telephones and radio transmitters which have an output greater than 10 watts. The Škoda Service Partners can provide you with details about the technical possibilities for retrofitting of mobile telephones and radio transmitters.

Seat belts140
Important safety information regarding the
use of seat belts
The correct use of the seat belts considerably reduces the risk
of injury!
WARNING
•The belt webbing must not be ja mmed in-between at any point or twisted, or chafe against any sharp edges.
•It is important that the belt webbing is properly routed if the seat belts are to offer their maximum protection ⇒page 141, “How are seat belts correctly fastened?”.
•No two persons (also not children) should ever use a single seat belt together.
•The maximum protection which seat belts can offer is only achieved if you are correctly seated ⇒page 135, “Correct seated position”.
•The belt webbing must not run across solid or fragile objects (e.g. spectacles, ball-point pens , keys etc.) as this may be a cause of injuries.
•Bulky, loose clothing (e.g. a winter coat over a jacket) does not allow you to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of the seat belts.
•It is prohibited to use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e.g. for shortening the belts for smaller persons).
•The lock tongue should only be inserted into the lock which is the correct one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to protect and the risk of injury increases.
•The backrests must not be tilted too far to the rear otherwise the seat- belts can lose their effectiveness.
•The belt webbing must always be ke pt clean. Soiled belt webbing may impair proper operation of the inertia reel ⇒page 192, “Seat belts”.
•The slot of the belt tongue must not be blocked by paper or similar objects otherwise the belt tongue will not lock in place properly.
•Inspect the seat belts r egularly to ensure they are in good condition. If you find seat belts which have damage to the seat belt webbing, seat belt connections, to the inertia reels or to the lock, the relevant safety belt must be replaced by a specialist garage.
•The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not make an attempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
•Damaged seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an acci- dent and were therefore stretched, must be replaced - this is best done by a specialist garage. The anchorage points of the belts must also be inspected. The anchorage points for the belts should also be checked.
•In certain countries it is possible to use seat belts which differ in terms of their operation from the seat belts which are described on the pages which follow.

Indicator light (airbag switched off)
The airbag indicator light is located in the middle of the dash panel ⇒page 153, fig. 122 .
If the front passenger airbag is switched on, the airbag warning light comes on for a few seconds each time the ignition is switched on.
In cases where the front passenger front airbag or side airbag is switched off the airbag indicator light comes on for a few seconds after switching on the igni- tion, goes out for about a second and then comes on again.
There is a system fault present in the airbag switch off ⇒ if the indicator light flashes.
WARNING
•The driver is responsible for whethe r the airbags are switched on or switched off.
•Only switch off the airbag when the ignition is switched off! Other- wise a fault can occur in the system for the airbag deactivation.
•If the warning light (airbag switched off) flashes:
− Front passenger airbag is not deployed in the event of an accident!
− It is also important to have the system inspected without delay by a specialist garage.

WARNING
Pay attention to any legal requirements if you do carry a spare canister in the vehicle. We do not recommend ca rrying any fuel canisters in your vehicle for safety reasons. The canister can be damaged in the event of an accident and fuel may leak out.
Caution
•Remove any fuel which has spilled onto the paintwork of your vehicle immediately - risk of paint damage!
•Vehicles fitted with cata lytic converter should never be allowed to let the fuel tank to run completely empty. An irregular supply of fuel to the engine can result in misfiring and unburnt fuel ma y get into the exhaust system, which may result in overheating and dama ge to the catalytic converter.
