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.

Alarm
If your navigation system rece ives a disaster announcement, “ ALARM” is displayed
in the standard field - foreground - of the display. The display appears in the
standard field - background du ring active route guidance.
The play function of the active audio so urce is interrupted and the navigation
system switches over to the correspond ing radio station that is receiving the

The play function of the announceme nt is perfomed with the volume ⇒page 13

At the end of the announcement it switches back automatically to the last active
audio source.
You can end the traffic information at any time by switching over to another audio
source or setting another station.

If your vehicle is eq uipped with a “hands-free system*” , the voice play function of
the telephone is performed via the navigation system.
If the telephone is activated, the au dio sources are switched to mute. “ PHONE” is
displayed on the display.
After the end of the conversation, the audio play function is continued.

“TA”
Here you can set if your na vigation system should repl ay incoming traffic informa-
tion.
•“ ON ” - all incoming traffic information is replayed. If TA is switched on, only TP
stations can be set.
•“ OFF ” - Traffic information is not replayed.
Volume settings
“VOL-ON ” - Setting the switch on volume of the system.
“ TA MI N ” - setting the minimum volume for traffic information.
“ NAV-MIN ” - setting the minimum volume for the voice response of the naviga-
tion.
“ TELEPHONE ” - if your vehicle is equipped with a hands-fr ee system*, a call is
replayed via the navigation system. Here you can set the volume, with which you
can hear your conv ersation partner.
“ GALA ” - the volume of your navigation sy stem is increased automatically with
increasing speed and thus high exterior noises. Here you can set the degree of
accentuation.
Note
If at a particular time of a traffic information or voice response the system volume
is higher than “ TA MIN” or “NAV-MIN ”, this is also performed in the system
volume.
Macro button settings
The macro button can be assigned to one of the following functions:
•“ ROUTE GUIDANCE ” - activates the route guidance, if a destination has already
been defined.
•“ ROUTE OPTIONS ” - calls up the menu for se lecting the route calculation.
•“ROUTE LIST ” - calls up the route list during an active route guidance.
•“LAST DESTINATIONS ” - shows the content of the memory - LAST
DESTINATIONS - of the navigation.
•“ ALPH.DEST.MEMORY ” - calls up the alphabetica lly classified destination
memory.
•“ GPS STATUS ” - shows the number of current GPS satellite receptions and the
geographic position.
•“ TOGGLE TIME INFO ” - allows the switch-over between arrival time and
remaining travel time.

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.
