Windshield wiper and wash systemWindshield wiper You can operate the windscreen wipers and automatic wipe/wash using the windscreen wiper lever.The windscreen wiper lever
⇒
fig. 73
has the following positions:
Finger-operated wiping – If you wish to wipe the windscreen only
briefly
, push the lever into the
sprung position . If you hold the le
ver in the lower position for more
than 1 second, the wiper wipes faster.
Intermittent wiping – Position the lever up into position . – Set with the switch the desired break between the individual wiper
strokes
Slow wipe – Position the lever up into position .
Fa s t w ip e – Position the lever up into position . Automatic wipe/wash for windscreen – Pull the lever towards the steering
wheel into sprung position , the
wash system sprays immediately, the windscreen wiper starts wiping a little later. The wash system and the windscreen wiper operate simultaneously at a speed of more than 120 km/h.
– Release the lever. The windscreen wash system stops and the wiper
continues for another 3 - 4 wiper strokes (depending on the period of spraying of the windscreen). At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again* 5 seconds after the last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This function can be acti-vated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
Rain sensor* – Move the lever into position . – You can set the sensitivity of the sensor individually with switch . Switching windscreen wipers off – Move the lever back into its home position .After the windscreen wiper switches off each
time or the ignition switches off for
the third time, the position of the windscreen wiper changes, this counteracts an early fatigue of the wiper rubbers. The windscreen wipers and the wash system only operate if the ignition is switched on and the bonnet is closed. If the intermittent wipe is switched on, the intervals are also controlled depending on speed. The rain sensor* automatically regulates
the break between the individual wiper
strokes depending on the intensity of the rain. The windscreen washer nozzles are heated* when the ignition is switched on.

Automatic gearbox DSG*
134
Kickdown function The kickdown function provides you with maximum acceleration power.Depressing the accelerator pedal allows th
e kickdown function
to be activated in
the desired driving program. This function has precedence over the driving programme and serves for maximum accelera
tion of the vehicle when exploiting
the maximum power potential of the engi
ne without taking into account the
current selector lever position (
D, S or Tiptronic
). The gearbox shifts down to one
or several gears in line with the driving state and the vehicle accelerates. The gearbox does not shift up into the highes
t gear until the engine has reached its
maximum revolutions for this gear range.
WARNING
Please note that using the kickdown fu
nction can result in the driven wheels
spinning on a smooth or slippery road surface - risk of skidding!Dynamic shift programmeThe automatic gearbox of your
vehicle is controlled electronically. Shifting up and
down through the gears is performed auto
matically on the basis of pre-defined
driving programmes. Adopting a
moderate style of driving
will cause the gearbox to select the most
economical driving programme. Shifting up into a higher gear as soon as possible and shifting down as late as possible will
have a favourable effect on your fuel
consumption. Adopting a
sporty style of driving
with rapid movements of the accelerator pedal
combined with sharp acceleration and freq
uent changes in speed, exploiting the
top speed of the car or depressing the a
ccelerator pedal (kickdown function), will
cause the gearbox to switch over to this style of driving and shift down earlier with frequent changes in gears in comparison to the moderate style of driving. Selecting the most appropriate driving programme for the particular style of driving is a continuous process. Irrespective of this
it is, however, possible to switch or shift
down into a dynamic shift programme by
depressing the accelerator rapidly. The
gearbox shifts down into a lower gear matching the speed of the car and this allows you to accelerate rapidly (e.g. when overtaking) without having to depress the accelerator pedal fully into the kickdown
range. The original programme will be
reactivated to match your particular style
of driving once the gearbox has shifted up
again. When driving in hilly regions, the gears are selected to match uphill and downhill sections. This avoids the gearbox frequently
shifting up and down when negotiating
an uphill stretch. When driving downhill, it is possible to shift down into the Tiptronic position, in order to
exploit the engine brake torque.
Tiptronic The Tiptronic allows the driver to also shift gears manually.

Mobile phones and two-way radio systemsThe installation of a mobile phone and tw
o-way radio system in a vehicle should
only be carried out by an authorised Škoda Service Partner. Škoda Auto permits the operation of mo
bile 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 also be aware of the fact that only an
external
aerial makes it possible
to achieve the optimal range of such equipment.
WARNING
•
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in the vehicle
without using a special external aerial
or an external aeri
al which has been
incorrectly installed, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field in the interior of the vehicle.•
Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving!

telephone supports this profile. The equipment includes the following functions:•
Display of the SMS text in the information display.
•
Free talking in the vehicle interior.
•
MUTE signal to the radio.
•
Voice control (with the set-up possibility for “short and long dialogue”,
depending on the user's knowledg
e of the operating structure).
•
Convenience mode with the multifunction
steering wheel and the display in the
information display.•
Handsfree-system.
The voice control of the telephone is acti
vated by pressing the button PTT on the
multifunction st

A phone phonebook is part of the univers
al telephone preinstallation GSM III with
voice control. In the phone phonebook ther
e are 1000 free memory locations avail-
able. This phone phonebook is independent of the appliance used for the mobile phone. Furthermore the volume can be changed indi
vidually at any time with the button
for setting the radio or on vehicles fitted with multifunction steering wheel* with function buttons on
the steering wheel.
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.
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 im
mediately 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 2nd error the system repeats the aid. 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 in
serted in the moulded headliner and
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 tele
phone system only to such an extent,
so that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.

Technical Data
In certain accident situations, the front, side and head airbag are deployed together. If the airbags are deployed, the airbags are filled with a propellant gas and inflated in front of the driver and front passenger
⇒fig. 171
. The airbags inflate in fractions
of a second and at a high speed in order to
be able to offer that additional protec-
tion in the event of an accident. The forward movement of the driver and of the front passenger is cushioned when they make
contact with the fully inflated airbag
and the risk of injury to head and chest is thus reduced. The specially developed airbag allows the gas
to flow out of the inflated airbag in a
controlled manner (depending on the load
of the particular car occupant) in order
to cushion head and chest areas. The airbag
then deflates subsequently to such an
extent, after an accident, to again provide a clear view forward. A grey white, non harmful gas is released when airbag is inflated. This is perfectly normal and is not an indication of a fire in the vehicle. The airbag develops enormous forces when triggered, which can lead to injuries if the sitting position or seated position is not correct
⇒
in “Important safety
information regarding the front airbag system” on page 177.Important safety information regarding the front airbag system Correct use of the airbag system considerably reduces the risk of injury!
WARNING
•
Never transport children on the front seat of a vehicle without using a
proper restraint system. If airbags are
deployed in the event of an accident,
the child might suffer severe or even fatal injuries!•
For the driver and front passenger it is important to maintain a distance
of at least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dash panel
⇒fig. 172
. Not main-
taining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
The front seats and the head restraints
must always also be correctly adjusted to match the body size of the occu- pant.•
It is essential to always switch off
⇒page 182, “Deactivating an airbag”
the front passenger airbag when attaching a child safety seat on the front passenger seat where the child is seated
with its back facing in direction of
travel (in some countries al
so when the child is facing the direction of travel).
If this is not done, there is a risk of
the child suffering severe or even fatal
injuries if the front passenger airbag
is deployed. In certain countries
national legal provisions also requir
e that the side or head passenger
airbags be deactivated. When transpor
ting a child on the front passenger
seat, please comply with the appropriate national regulations regarding the use of child safety seats.•
There must not by any further persons, animals or objects positioned
between the front seated occupants and the deployment area of the airbag.•
The steering wheel and the surface of
the airbag module in the dash
panel on the passenger side must not be stuck onto, covered or modified in any other way. These parts should only be cleaned with a dry cloth or a cloth moistened with water. No objects such as cup holders, mobile phone mounts, etc. may be attached to the covers of the airbag modules or be located within the immediate area.•
No modifications of any kind may be made to parts of the airbag system.
Any work on the airbag system includ
ing installing and removing system
components because of other repair
work (e.g. removing the steering
wheel) must only be carried
out by a specialist garage.
•
Never carry out changes on the front bumper or on the body.
