Equipment which is marked * is only stan 
dard on certain model versions or suppli- 
able as special equipment for certain models.Important informationWarrantyThe equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles. After the expiration of the warranty, a piec 
e of equipment in need of repair will be  
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, however, a precondition that the housing has  
not been damaged and no unauthorised  
attempts have been made 
 to carry out repairs.
Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty must not be the result of improper  handling of the system or from unprofession 
al repair attempts. It is also essential  
that there is no external damage.Operation of the navigation systemThe requirements of today's road traffic demand the driver’s full concentration at all times. Apart from the availability entertainmen 
t, the extensive and demanding equipment  
details of this system also offer a wide range of information, which will help you to  reach your destination quickly and safely.

But you should only operate the navigation system with its wide range of  possibilities when the traffic situation allows. The volume settings must be selected in  
such a way that audible signals from the  
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility  
vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire  
brigade), can be heard at all times.
WARNING
Please concentrate fully at 
 all times on your driving! As the driver you are  
fully responsible for road safety. Only use the functions in such a way that  you are always in full control of your vehicle in all traffic situations!Before using the navigation system•
Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•
Street and location names can be change 
d. It is therefore possible that the  
names stored on the CD might not correspond to the changed names.•
The route calculated by the navigation system is a recommendation for  
reaching the intended destination. While  
driving please pay a
ttention to stopping  
restrictions, traffic lights, one-way streets, lane change restrictions, canals and ferries.
WARNING
Road traffic legislation (StVO) applies  
at all times, even if a driving recom- 
mendation contradicts the StVO.
Caution
•
Inserting a second CD while a CD is being ejected can destroy the CD drive in  
the unit. Please note that the CD ejecti 
on lasts a few seconds after pressing the  
Eject button 
  . During this time the lock in fr
ont of the CD case is open. It is  
essential that you wait until the CD has been 
 fully ejected before you try to insert a  
new CD.
•
Press the buttons and the keys of the unit gently in order to avoid damaging  
them. Gentle pressure on  
the appropriate key is sufficient to operate the unit.  
Please note that the rotary/push knobs  
have predetermined breaking points, in  
order to reduce the risk of injury.•
Please note that a dirty or scratched na 
vigation CD can considerably impair the  
speed and the functions of the navigation system.Using the displayCarefully handle the display because dent 
s and scratches can occur through pres- 
sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects. The display can be cleaned wi 
th a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away  
with pure alcohol. 
Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or  
petrol as they will corrode the display  
surface.Anti-theft protectionAnti-theft codingYour radio is equipped with  
a convenience coding. If the radio is being operated for  
the first time, the safety code is not only st 
ored in the radio but also in the vehicle. 
After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, first of all switch on the ignition  and then the radio. If you wish to install the radio in another  
vehicle, the safety code must be entered.  
In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a Škoda Service Partner or a Škoda  importer. As the unit only functions afte 
r entering the safety code, this practically excludes its  
use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety.

NavigationOverviewSafety information regarding the use of the navigation systemThe route is recalculated each time if 
you ignore driving recommendations or  
change the route. This process takes only a few seconds. Driving recommendations can only then be re-transmitted. Incomplete navigation data The navigation system cannot receive any data from GPS satellites if you drive for  longer periods under thick forest canopy or 
 when your vehicle is in a garage, under- 
pass or tunnel. In this case, the navigation system orientates itself solely with the  help of the vehicle sensors. In regions not at all or only partially digitalised and stored as such on the navigation  CD, the navigation system will try to prov 
ide guidance to the destination. Please  
note that under these circumstances the  
guidance to the destination may not be  
completely correct if, for example, one-wa 
y streets and road categories (motorway,  
country road etc.) are not at all or only  
partially included in 
the navigation data  
used.
WARNING
Please observe the legal requirements  
for road traffic when following the  
driving recommendations provided by your radio navigation system.•
The driving recommendations provided may vary from current situa-
tions, e.g. due to road works or out of 
 date navigation data. In such a case,  
always observe the traffic regulations and ignore the driving recommenda- tions.•
Traffic signs and traffice regulations al 
ways have priority over the driving  
recommendations provided by the navigation system.•
Route guidance is subject to consta 
nt changes despite the information  
about one-way streets, pedestrian zone 
s etc. stored on the navigation CD.  
Information on traffic lights, stop and right of way signs, parking and stop- 
ping restrictions as well as lane constrictions and speed restrictions is not  included in the radio navigation system.Navigation CDInserting the navigation CD – Insert the CD into the CD case  . The program stored on the naviga- 
tion CD is loaded. Do not remove the navigation CD before the loading process is finished.
After route guidance has started, the na 
vigation CD may not 
be taken out under  
certain circumstances, e.°g in order to play an Audio CD. Up to date navigation data and new navigation CD Road guidance is subject to 
 constant changes (e.g. new streets, changes of street  
names and house numbers). A navigation CD 
 is a huge data store, which unfortu- 
nately will not be up to date after a certai 
n time. This can lead to complaints during  
route guidance. It is for this reason that you must regula 
rly update the navigation data on your unit  
with a current navigation CD.GeneralYou can continue to listen to the radio  
or play CDs during the route guidance  
When entering an address (town, street),  
only those letters or symbols which make  
up a logical entry will be presented. A list  
of possible names will be shown. Do not  
forget to enter the blank space in names made up of more than one word, such as  High Wycombe.

The route will be recalculated if you leave or disregard the route that was originally  calculated. This process  
takes only a few seconds. 
The last voice response can be repeated by pressing the button  . The volume  of a navigation recommend 
ation can be changed whilst it is being made. 
If the text  
Off Road
 appears on the display, it means you are located on a non-digi- 
talised street, e.°g. on a farm track. The  
GPS satellites will not be able to reach the  
aerial once you are in a tunnel or undergr 
ound garage. The unit will orientate itself  
via the wheel sensors. If you  
try to carry out a route calculation in this situation, you  
may hear the message: “You are located on 
 a non-digitalised road”. Drive on until  
the display  
Off Road
 disappears.
Navigation settings– Press the button   and then the button  . – The desired setup of the navigation can be selected and confirmed  
using the button  .
You can select the following settings: Spoken information On  - you will obtain acoustic driving re
commendations for the route during the  
route guidance. Off 
 - the acoustic driving recommendations are switched off during a route guid- 
ance. Auto 
 - the acoustic driving recommendations are switched off during a phone  
conversation. The route is only displayed. Demo mode If the demo mode is switched on, a rout 
e guidance can be started via the naviga- 
tion. Then the unit simulates the journey fr 
om the accepted location to the entered  
destination. First of all  
you can enter manually the lo
cation for a journey demon- 
stration. 
Time display Driving time 
 - displays the estimated driving time until the time of arrival at the  
destination or at the next stopover destination. Arrival 
 - displays the clock until the estimated 
time of arrival or the next stopover  
destination is reached. Deleting last destinations erase individually 
 - opens the list of the last destinations whenever you select  
manually the destination to be deleted. erase all 
 - erases all the last destinations after further confirmation. 
Delete tours erase individually 
 - opens the list of the stored tours whenever you select manu- 
ally the tour to be deleted. erase all 
 - erases all the stored tours after further confirmation. 
Tyre  ch a n g e While driven distances are measured by the navigation system via the turning of the  wheels, the changed tyre sizes affect the a 
ccuracy of the navigation e.°g during the  
announcement of the navigation re 
commendations. If you select 
tyre calibration
,  
the navigation adapts to the changed tyre size. Enter your location manually The navigation system will need some time for an exact definition of your position  if you have transported your vehicle using th 
e train or a ferry. Your position can be  
entered manually if the automati 
c definition is not successful.

•
In regions not at all or only partially digi 
talised and stored as such on the navi- 
gation CD, the navigation system will try to provide guidance to the destination.  Please note that under these circumstan 
ces the guidance to the destination may  
not be completely correct if, for exampl 
e, one-way streets and road categories  
(motorway, country road etc.) are not at all  
or only partially included in the naviga- 
tion data used.Dynamic route guidance with TMC (Traffic Message Channel)Press the button   and call up the ro 
ute options via the function key  
 and activate or deactivate the entry for the dynamic route guidance. 
Requirements for a dynamic route guidance TMC is a digital radio data service for  
continuous
 transmission of traffic informa- 
tion. The unit has a continuous background of 
 TMC traffic reports providing a TMC  
station at the current location can be received. The quality of the transmitted traffic reports depends on the broadcast editing  carried out by the radio station. The reception of the TMC traffic reports cannot be  switched on or off. The station you are listening to do 
es not have to be a TMC station. 
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated an 
d displayed by the unit if the navigation  
data for the currently driven area is stored 
 in the unit memory or can be called up  
via an inserted navigation CD.

Traffic problems during a dynamic route guidance  The navigation system will calculate the quickest possible route during when a  dynamic route guidance option is active. If 
 it takes longer to avoid blocked roads,  
you are guided for example around the blocked roads.Block a stretch of the route and interrogate route informationManually excluding stretches of the journey – Press the button   during the current route guidance and then  
the function key  . 
– In the menu

route list
 in order to be shown the stretches of the  
route still to be driven.
Only  
one
 obstruction can be entered for the current route guidance. 
You will be guided through a blocked area if there is no logical alternative to travel- ling through it.  Route list The route list is updated during the journe 
y. It shows the roads that you have not  
yet reached. Route sections that you have  
already travelled will be deleted from the  
route list. While pressing the button   you receive further information regarding the indi- vidual route sections. Blocked stretches of the road are displayed through a “ 
!” in a  
black box.
Note
•
It takes some seconds after route guidance has started for the route list to be 
compiled so that it can be displayed. •
The type and number of alternative rout 
es offered during an obstruction is  
determined by the detailed conten 
t of the inserted navigation CD.
Route guidance without navigation CDThe navigation function is limited and also
 possible when a navigation CD had been  
removed. You can then use the internal  
drive to play audio or MP3 CDs without  
using the navigation function. For this purpos 
e data of the navigation CD is stored  
in an internal unit “corridor memory” along the route. The possibilites of the desti- nation entry and the dynamic route guidance via TMC are only restrictively possible with this stored “route corridor”. The “w 
idth” of the route corridor depends upon  
the length of the total route to be stored. The shorter the route, the wider the stored  route corridor is and the more functions  
can be called up without inserting the  
navigation CD again. You are asked to insert 
 the navigation CD in order to continue  
the route guidance during long routes or 
 unplanned deviations from the route (e.°g  
tailback leading to detours  
based on TMC annoucements).  
A CD symbol behind the entry  
NAVIGATION
 is displayed in the navigation menu.  
This means that the unit has just stored da 
ta of the navigation CD in the corridor  
memory. The navigation CD must only be 
 removed when the CD symbol is no  
longer displayed. If the navi 
gation CD has to be removed, a current calculation or  
route guidance within the navigation 
 cannot be properly continued.
