Universal telephone preinstallation with voice
control*
Description
The voice control is activated according to equipment installed on the vehicle by
pressing the button PTT (push to talk)  on the adapter ⇒fig. 151 or the button  on the multifunction steering wheel ⇒page 139, fig. 150 .
A phone phonebook is part of the mobile phone preinstallation with voice control.
In the phone phonebook there are 1500 free memory locations available. This
phone phonebook is independent of the ap pliance used for the mobile telephone.
Fo r v e h i c l e s f i t t e d w i t h m u l t ifunction steering wheel, the operation is performed via
the function buttons on the steering wheel ⇒page 139.
Furthermore the volume can be changed indi vidually at any time with the button
for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multifunction steering wheel* with
function buttons on the steering wheel. If the system answers with the voice response “
Telephone is not ready”, please
check the operating state of the telephone as follows:
•Is the telephone switched on?
•Is the PIN code entered?
Dialogue
The period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands and
carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible feed-
back and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions. You can start or
end the dialogue at any time by pressi ng the PTT button. You can also end the
dialogue with the voice command CANCEL.
The dialogue is always automatically ended after carrying out an operation, e.g.
after erasing the name from the phonebook.
The dialogue of the incoming call is i mmediately interrupted and you can accept
the call by pressing the button
.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with “ Sorry?” and a new
entry can be performed. After the 3rd error the answer “ Cancel” is given and the
dialogue is ended.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following
factors:
•Speak with a normal tone of voice wi thout intonation and excessive voice
pauses.
•Avoid insufficient articulation.
•Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to reduce or stop disturbing
exterior noise.
•It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
•During the dialogue avoid additional nois e in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously
talking occupants.
•Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
•The microphone for voice control is directed to the driver and front passenger.
Therefore the driver and the front passenger can operate the equipment.

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.
Caution
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter during the call can lead to interruption
of the connection. When taking out the mobile phone, the connection to the
factory-fitted antenna is interrupted, this reduces the quality of the transmitting
and receiving signal. This might result additionally in harmful radiation from the
mobile phone in the interior of the ve hicle and the charging of the telephone
battery is interrupted.
Note
•Please also refer to the additional instructions ⇒page 149, “Mobile phones
and two-way radio systems”.
•Please contact your Škoda Service Partner if there are any points which are not
clear.
•The voice control of the telephone is only possible for adapters with PTT button.
Suitable adapters are available at a Škoda Service Partner.
Inserting the mobile phone and adapter
Only one telephone mount is factory-fitted. An adapter for the mobile
phone can be purchased from Škoda original accessories.
Inserting the mobile phone and adapter
– First of all push the adapter in the direction of arrow ⇒fig. 152 up
to the stop into the mount. Press the adapter slightly downwards, until
it locks securely into position.
– Insert the mobile phone into the adapter (as specified in manufac- turer's instructions).
Removing the mobile phone and adapter
– Press simultaneouly the side locks of the mount and remove the mobile phone and adapter ⇒fig. 152 .
This enables you to make full use of the advantages of a normal carphone (“hands-
free system” using a microphone integrated in the vehicle, optimal transmission of
signals using an external aerial etc.). The battery of the mobile phone is also
constantly charged.
