Radio and mobile phone operation
The driver can set the basic functions of the radio and telephone by simply oper-
ating the buttons on the multi-functional module* behind the steering wheel so
that he can concentrate on the traffic situation while being distracted as little as
possible by operating the radio and telephone ⇒fig. 134.
This applies only if your vehicle has been equipped with the radio and telephone
preinstallation at the factory. You can of course operate the radio and telephone at
the appliance. You will find a description in the operating instructions of your radio.

Communication 114Universal 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. 135 or the button
on the multi-functional module* ⇒page 113.
Aside from the button PTT, the button SOS can be found on certain adapters
⇒fig. 136. This button is without function.
A phone phonebook is part of the mobile phone preinstallation with voice control.
In the phone phonebook there are 1 500 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 113.
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.

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 - risk of accident!
•
In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth function of the handsfree-
system must be switched off by a specialist garage.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. The charging of the mobile phone battery is also interrupted.
Note
•
Not valid for all mobile phones which enable a communication via Bluetooth.
•
Please operate your mobile phone exclusively with a suitable adapter in order
to keep a low radiation in the vehicle.
•
Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal sending and
receiving power and offers at the same time the advantage of the battery charging.
•
If you insert the mobile telephone into the adapter, the connection is estab-
lished via the interface in the adapter set and the Bluetooth connection is discon-
nected. You can hear an increasing tone sequence from the loudspeakers of the
vehicle.
•
Note that the range of the Bluetooth connection to the handsfree-system is
limited to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles
between the devices and interferences with other devices. If your mobile phone is
e.g. in a jacket pocket, this can lead to difficulties when establishing the Bluetooth
connection with the handsfree-system or the data transfer.
•
If you have set the Portuguese language in the information display, it is used
automatically for the mobile phone operation, as this is the language, which was
entered during coding of the handsfree-system.
•
On certain mobile phones with operating system, it is necessary to install on the
mobile phone an application of the mobile phone manufacturer, which enables the
take-over of the phone phonebook via Bluetooth.
Mobile phones and two-way radio systemThe installation of a mobile phone and two-way radio system in a vehicle should
only be carried out by a Škoda Dealer.
Škoda Auto permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems
with a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission power
of up to 10 watts.
It is essential that you inform a specialist garage about the possibilites to assemble
and operate mobile phones and two-way radio sets which have a power output of
more than 10 W. They will inform you which technical possibilities exist for retrofit-
ting mobile telephones and radio transmitters.
Operation of mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with func-
tioning of the electronic systems of your vehicle. The reasons for this may be:•
no external aerial;
•
external aerial incorrectly installed;
•
transmission power greater than 10 watts.
You should therefore not operate a mobile phone or two-way radio system
inside the vehicle without the use of an external aerial, or with an external aerial
which has been incorrectly installed.
You should also be aware of the fact that only an external aerial makes it possible
to achieve the optimal range of such equipment.
