Universal telephone preinstallation with voice
control*
The voice control is activated according to equipment installed on the vehicle by pressing the button PTT (push to talk)  on the adapter ⇒fig. 124 or the button  on the multi-functional module* ⇒page 108.
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 can be used in line with the mobile telephone.
For vehicles fitted with multi-functional module*, the operation is performed via the function buttons on the module ⇒page 108.
Furthermore the volume can be changed individually at any time with the button for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multi-functional module* with func-tion 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 pressing 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 immediately 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 without 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 noise 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 road 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 vehicle and the charging of the telephone battery is interrupted.
Note
•Please also refer to the additional instructions ⇒page 117, “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. 125 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. 125.
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.
Mobile phone operation
If you select the menu PHONE in the information display and the phone is not in the adapter, INSERT PHONE is shown on the display.
