tion. You can select via the map type if e.g. the current vehicle position
should be shown together with the destination. The move mode makes it
possible to view the neighbouring map details. Other symbols can be
selected via the map content. The segment fields change the map scale.
You can change from the map display to the symbol display with menu
field “Symbol ”.
Symbol display
If the guidance is active, you are being offered the option of a symbol
display with turn information or map display.
The show depends on which display was active during the last guidance.
The symbol display shows the number of GPS satellite receptions and the
status of the tailback function, the estimated arrival time or the length of
the trip and the distance to the destination, the display of the direction of
travel, the distance markings to the intersection/junction with the distance
information and the name of the currently driven road. Before a turn proce-
dure, the display of the direction of travel points in the direction you are
turning into. In addition the name of the street you are turning into is
indicated.
You can switch back and forth at any time between both types of
display . The map is called up from the symbol display by pressing the
menu knob . You can then can change back in the symbol display by
pressing the button .
Switching the unit on and off
– The system is switched on or off by pressing the rotary/push knob . – If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock when the system is
switched on, the system sw itches off autmatically.

automatically. This process can be repeated as often as desired.
If the unit is switched off and the ignition key is withdrawn, a flashing LED
indicates (below the display button ) that this is a unit with an active
anti-theft coding.
First of all the start screen is indicated with the Škoda logo.
After this, a menu or a display (here radio information display) is indicated
on the screen, which was active at the last switching off of the system.
In addition a message appears on the screen: “ The navigation system
is activated. Please follow the StVO! ”

•RDS evaluation is not possible if the signal is too weak. In this case it
is the frequncy which appears in the status bar or in the info field instead
of the RDS station name.
•If there are unfavourable reception conditions (e.g. in the mountains)
the unit checks very often the alternative frequencies. This can cause brief
mutings.
•If this causes mutings and tone distortions in extremely poor reception
locations, the RDS function is temporarily switched off.
Traffic radio reception
Many stations in the FM range regularly transmit the current traffic reports
within their transmitting range.
After selecting a station, check if the set station has traffic reports.
If the set station is a TP station (station with traffic radio reception), the
identification “ TP” appears in addition to the station name in the info field
of the radio basic menu. The station remains set. The functions “ traffic
information standby ” and “EON” are active.
If the set station has no traffic radio station or cannot be received, the unit
searches automatically for another traffic radio station in the reception
area (start station finding). The message “ TP SEEK” (searching traffic
radio station) appears in the radio information display.
Listening to traffic information
A traffic information is detected by the unit using the traffic information
identification. Even if the radio is set very low or in the CD mode you can
listen to a traffic information. The play function is performed in Mono. The
message “ Info” appears in the radio information display. Simultaneously
the traffic information is recorded in the traffic information memory (TIM)
⇒ page 20. Interrupting a traffic information
If a traffic information was interrupted, press the button . A new
traffic information can be emitted.
Cancel traffic information standby
The traffic information standby is cancelled in the menu “
Select source”
when switching over to FM or AM level.
Traffic information memory - Traffic Memo (TIM)
The radio navigation system has a digital voice memory with which upto
nine traffic reports with a total duration of maximum four minutes can be
automatically recorded.
If the radio is switched on each traffic report of the set station is
recorded, if the show “ TP” is present in the info field.
If the unit is switched off traffic reports are recorded for as long as they
were selected in the menu “ Audio Settings” under “TIM-Standby”
⇒ page 14. This function can also be switched off.
Replaying the traffic reports
If you press the button , the replay of the traffic reports starts with
the last recorded traffic information and continues to the oldest traffic infor-
mation. The show “ TIM Track 4 Time 14:10 TP ” appears in the info field:
TIM - Play function of a recorded traffic information
Tra ck 4 - There are four traffic information. The play function begins with
the latest information.
