Navigation
The navigation system is your “ intelligent front passenger”. You can
reach the desired destination quickly, easily and reliably without time-
consuming map searching from the starting point of your trip. In unknown
locations it saves you time by guiding you to the next filling station. You
can make an intermittent stop on the road, in order e.g. to go and eat in a
restaurant or to visit a sight. The system uses the data stored on the navi-
gation CD for the calculation of the trip destination. During the guidance
you will receive via different screen displays information about vehicle
position; notes regarding turns (direction and distance until the turn) and
the arrival time at the trip destination.
Announcement of the ŠkodaAuto radio navigation system
Under certain requirements the system must be announced, as it is
equipped with a radio unit.
How does the radio navigation system function?
The current vehicle position is determined using satellites. The distance
travelled is measured by the ABS. The direction of travel is determined
using a gyroscope. The navigation system is provided with this informa-
tion and compared with the stored data.
Outside the densely populated areas it is possible that this type of locating
does not permit exact position definition. In this case the locating is
performed via satellites. This type of locating is referred to as Global Posi-
tioning System (GPS ) - global satellite locating system.

utomatic storing of radio stations (AS function )
The six best RDS stations can be automatically stored from the
respective service area (radio data system, which makes it
possible together with the radio program to transfer additionally
more information). They are stored on the station buttons .
This function is particularly useful on journeys.
If FM mode is set
– Press the button AS for more than two seconds - the system searches the six most powerful RDS stations and
stores them. “ Autostore” is displayed on the screen. After
ending the processs the most powerful station is set.
– You can call up the stored station with the station buttons .
Note
If there are less than six RDS stations, the stations without RDS are stored
and classified according to the field power on the remaining station
buttons. If there are less than six radio stations (TP) the remaining station
buttons are not changed.
Storing radio stations
You can store on the station buttons - three ranges -
FM (UKW), TP (Traffic Program = radio station ) and AM (MW) -
each six stations on two memory levels (e.g. memory levels FM1
and FM2)
