.
Switching child safety lock off – Use the vehicle key to turn the slit

the arrow.
So long as the child safety lock is switched
on it is not possib
le to open the door
from the inside with the door opening lever. In this case the door can be opened only from the outside.Central locking systemDescriptionUnlocking or locking the vehicle causes
all the doors and the fuel filler flap to be
unlocked or locked at the same time by th
e central locking system. The boot lid is
unlocked when opening. Afterwards you ca
n open the boot lid by pressing the
handle on the lower edge of the boot lid
⇒page 48.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:•
by using the radio remote control
⇒page 51,
•
using the buttons for the central locking system
⇒page 46,
•
from the outside using the vehicle key
⇒page 47, “Emergency unlocking and
locking of the driver's door”. Indicator light in the driver's door After locking the vehicle the indicator light flashes for 2 seconds fast, then more slowly. If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system
⇒page 46 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.
If the indicator light first of all flashes fast
for about 2 seconds, afterwards lights up
for about 30 seconds without interruption an
d then flashes slowly, there is a fault in
the system of the central locking or in the
interior monitor and in the towing protec-
tion monitoring*
⇒page 53. Visit a specialist garage to obtain assistance.
Convenience operation of windows One can open and close the windows when opening and closing the vehicle ⇒ page 56. Opening a single door* This function allows one to just unlock
the driver's door. The other doors and the
fuel filler flap remain locked and are only unlocked after repetitive unlocking. You can have the function opening a single
door activated by an authorised Škoda
Service Partner on request or you can activate it yourself with the aid of the Infor- mation display*
⇒page 30.
Automatic locking* All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a speed of about 15 km/h. If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car
is then automatically unlocked again. In
addition, it is possible for the driver or front passenger to unlock the car by pressing the central locking button
 ⇒page 46 or by pulling the door opening lever on one
of the front doors. You can have the function of the automatic
locking activated by a specialist garage
on request or you can also activate it yourself with the aid of the Information display*
⇒page 30.
WARNING
Locking the doors prevents involuntary
opening in an exceptional situation
(an accident). Locked doors prevent unwanted entry into the vehicle from outside, for example at road crossings. Locked doors do, however, make it more difficult for rescuers to get into
the vehicle in an emergency - danger to
life!
