Special equipment
The navigation system SatCompass offers yo u an easy handling of the convenience
equipment radio, CD player and navigation system in the vehicle. The system can
be equipped with an original 6-compartment CD changer*.
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 stat ion. 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 navigation 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 navigation system
Under certain requirements the system must be announced, as it is equipped with
a radio unit.
How does the 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 information 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 Positioning System (GPS ) - global satel-
lite locating system.

Important information
Warranty
The same warranty terms apply for the equipment as for new vehicles.
Note
A damage in the sense of the warranty must not be the result from improper
handling of the system or from unprofe ssional repair attempts. In addition, no
external damage must be present.
Replacement possibility
After the expiration of the warranty, a unit in need of repair will be replaced inex-
pensively with a reconditioned, original unit with spare part warranty. However it is
required that there is no housing damage and no unauthorised repair attempts
have been made.
Note
In the case of a warranty or a replacement service, the Škoda Service Partner must
be presented with the unit card wi th code number and serial number! The unit
card can be found at the back of the operating instructions.
Information on how to operate the navigation system
The requirements of today's street traffic demand from the driver that he always
concentrates fully when driving.
The extensive and fastidious equipment details of this system offer - besides the
possibilites of entertainment - also a wide range of information which will help you
reach the trip destination quickly and reliably.
Only if the traffic situation allows it, should you operate the navigation system
with its wide range of possibilites. The volume settings must be selected in su
ch a way that acoustic signals from the
outside, such as e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police cars, ambulances
and fire brigade), can be heard at any time.
WARNING
Please always pay full attention to the traffic situation around you! As the
driver you are fully responsible for the traffic safety. Only use the functions
in such a way that you always maintain the control over your vehicle in all
traffic situations!
Anti-theft coding
After removing the unit, the anti-theft coding prevents electronically the use of the
unit by an unauthorised person.
If the information “SAFE ” appears in the display after switching on the unit, it can
only be operated again by entering the correct code ⇒page 15.
Before using the navigation system
•Please observe the respective traffic regulations when driving.
•Street and location names can be changed. There are exceptional cases in
which the names stored on the CD migh t not correspond to the changed names.
•The route calculated by the navigation system is a recommendation for
reaching the trip destination. While driving please pay attention to stopping restric-
tions, traffic lights, one-way streets, toe change restrictions, channels and ferries.
WARNING
The road traffic legislation (StVO) is always applicable, also if a driving
recommendation does not comply with the StVO.

random order.
“MUSIC/SP.”
RDS stations have the possibility to transmit a signal which in case of text messages
switches over the frequency input of your navigation system to the voice play func-
tion, to do so e.g. treble is decreased. The voice play function is clearer and can be
heard better.
•“ AUTO ” - the frequency response of the vo ice play function is automatically
changed when the corresponding signal is received.
•“ OFF ” - select, if you do not wish an automatic adaptation of the frequency

Radio mode
Radio mode with RDS
The function RDS is always active for the navigation system.
More and more USW broadcasting companies transmit RDS information in addi-
tion to the program. E.g the station name and the traffic status of the set station
belong to this information.
Alternative frequency AF
The function alternative frequency ensures that the best receivable frequency of
the selected station is automatically and precisely set.
The replay of the broadcast can be mu ted briefly during the search process
according to the best receivable frequency.
If no alternative freq uency of the set station can be found and the station no longer
offers a satisfactory quality, then please select another station.
TMC (Traffic Message Channel)
Certain radio stations transmit digital tr affic announcements in addition to their
programme. The announcements are received by your navigation system and used
for a dynamic route guidance ⇒page 29. If a station has TMC at its disposal, “ TMC”
is shown in the standard field - status range - of the display. These stations can be
stored on two memory levels TC1 and TC2.
RDS regional
Certain programs of the broadcasting companies are divided into regional
programs at specific times.
First of all the unit attempts to set only alternative frequencies of the selected
station.
If the quality is however so low, that there is a risk of a “program loss”, the navigation
system accepts also frequencies, which are “related” to the station. As this station emits temporarily different programs and due to such a change in frequency also
the programme from one of the “related” stations can be heard
⇒page 12.
Switch on radio mode
Press the button , or in order to switch on the
radio mode. After pressing the button the last set station, if receiveable, is
selected.
Note
If FM is changed to TMC or vice versa, th e set station is taken over in the selected
level.
Set and store station
Manual station tuning
– Press one of the buttons in orde r to manually tune a station. At
every press the frequency changes to fixed, defined steps upwards or
downward.
Automatic station tuning
– Press one of the buttons for a station finding, in a frequency range, upwards or downwards. The next or the previous station is automati-
cally set and selected.
– If you hold the button pressed, the station continues quickly to the
next station.
