Safe securingThe central locking system is equipped with a
safe securing
6) system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automatically blocked. It is not possible to open the doors with the door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts as
an effective deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing sy
stem by locking twice within 2°seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operating:•
the indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out
and starts to flash slowly after about 30 seconds,•
is the filler flap locked.
The safe securing system is again activated
the next time the vehicle is unlocked and
locked again. If the vehicle is locked and the safe secu
ring system is deacti
vated, you can open
the vehicle from the inside by pulling on the door opening lever.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-vated, there must not be any person and animals in the vehicle as it is then not possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked
doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emer- gency - hazard!
Note
The anti-theft alarm system* is also activated with the deactivated safe securing system when locking the vehicle. The inte
rior monitor* is however not activated.

Technical Data
The transmitter with the battery is housed
in the handle of the remote control key.
The receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the remote control is approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control can be reduced if the batteries are weak. The remote control key has a fold-open key
bit which can be used
for unlocking and
locking the car manually and also for starting the engine. If a lost key is replaced or if the rece
iver unit has been repaired or a new unit
installed, it is then necessary for an authorised Škoda Service Partner to initialise the system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
•
The remote control is automatically deac
tivated when the ignition is switched
on.•
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
ence from transmitters close to the car
and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phon
e, TV transmitter).
•
The battery must be replaced, ideally by
an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if
the central locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control at less than 3 metres away.•
If the driver door is opened, the vehi
cle cannot be locked using the remote
control.
