outside temperature above approx. +2°C,
•
switched on.
If the cooling system is switched on, the temperature and air humidity drops in the vehicle. The wellbeing of the occupants of the
car is enhanced as a result of this partic-
ularly at high outside temperatures and a
high air humidity. The system prevents the
windows misting up during the cold season of the year. The heating effect is dependent upon the c
oolant temperature, thus
full heat output
only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature. It is possible to briefly activate recirculat
ed air mode in order to enhance the cooling
effect
⇒page 104.
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must
be free of ice, snow or leaves in order to
ensure that the heating and cooling systems operate properly. The AC compressor is switched off at a hi
gh coolant temperature in order to provide
cooling at a high load of the engine. After switching on the cooling
Condensation
from the evaporator of the air condi-
tioning may drip down and form a puddle be
low the vehicle. This is quite normal and
not an indication of a leak! Recommended setting for all periods of the year:•
Set the desired temperature, we recommend 22 °C.
•
Press the button
⇒page 103, fig. 110
.
•
Move the air outlet vents
3 and
4, so that the air flow is
directed slightly upwards.
WARNING
•
For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the
windows are free of ice, snow and mistin
g. Please familiarize yourself about
how to correctly operate th
e heating and ventilation systems, how to demist
and defrost the windows, as well as with the cooling mode.•
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time,
as “stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert your attention and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases. Switch recirculated air mode off as soon as the windows begin misting up.
Note
•
If the cooling system has not been switched on for a lengthy period, odours may
be produced at the evaporator because of
deposits. Switch the cooling system on at
least once a month for approximately 5 minut
es at the highest blower stage - also
during the cold season of the year - in order to remove such odours. Also open a window for a short time.•
We recommend that you do not smoke in
the vehicle when the recirculating air
mode is operating since the smoke which is
drawn at the evaporator from the interior
of the vehicle forms deposits in the evapor
ator of the air conditioning system. This
produces a permanent odour when the air conditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through considerable
effort and expense (replacement of
compressor).•
The used air streams out through the air
removal openings in the luggage compart-
ment.•
On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted
radio* or navigation*, the information
of the Climatronic is also shown on the display. This function can be switched off, see operating instructions of the ra
dio* or the navigation system*.

The handbrake warning light
 lights up when the handbrak
e is applied, provided the
ignition is on. A warning signal sounds and the following text
appears in the display* if you have inad-
vertently driven off with the handbrake applied:
Handbrake on
The handbrake warning is acti
vated if you drive at a speed of more than 6 km/h for
more than 3 seconds.
WARNING
•
Please note that the handbrake must be fully released. A handbrake which
is only partially released can result in the rear brakes overheating which will have a negative effect on the operation of
the brake system - risk of accident! In
addition this can result in premature wear of the rear brake pads.•
Never leave children unattended in the vehicle. The children might, for
example, release the handbrake or take
the vehicle out of gear. The vehicle
might then move off - risk of accident!
Caution
After the car has come to a stop, always firs
t of all apply the handbrake firmly before
then additionally engaging a gear (manual gearbox) or moving the selector lever into position
P (automatic gearbox).
Rear parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning
of obstacles behind the vehicle.
The audible parking aid determines the di
stance between the rear bumper and an
obstacle located behind the ve
hicle with the aid of ultras
ound sensors. The tones of
the parking aid can be adapted in th
e menu of the information display*
⇒page 27.
The sensors are integrated in the rear bumper. Range of sensors The clearance warning begins at a distance
of about 160 cm from the obstacle (area
⇒ fig. 117
). The interval between the warning signals becomes shorter as the clear-
ance is reduced. A continuous tone sounds from
a distance of approx. 30
cm (area ) - danger area.
You should not reverse any further after this signal sounds!
If the vehicle is
equipped with a factory-fitted
towing device*, the border of the danger area starts,
continuous tone, 5 cm furt
her behind the vehicle. Th
e vehicle can be extended
through an installed deta
chable towing device.
On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted
radio* or navigation system*, the distance
to the obstruction is shown graphically in the display. On vehicles with a factory-fitted towing device, the sensors are deactivated when towing a trailer. The driver is informed about this by a graphic display (vehicle towing
a trailer) in the radio* or the navigation*
display. The radio* or navigation system*, which is factory-fitted, can be set so that the play function volume decreases when acti
vating the parking ai
d, see Owner's Manual
radio* or navigation system*. This impr
oves the audibility of the parking aid.

Activating The parking aid is activated automatically when
reverse gear
is engaged and the igni-
tion is turned on. This is confirme
d by a brief acknowledgement signal.
Deactivating The parking aid is deactivated
by removing the reverse gear.
WARNING
•
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when parking the vehicle or carrying out similar manoeuvres.•
You should therefore satisfy yourself, befo
re reversing, that there is no small
obstacle, such as a rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., behind your vehicle. Such an obstacle might not be within the range detected by the sensors.•
Under certain circumstances, surfaces
of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the signal of
the parking aid. Thus, these objects or
people who wear such clothing are not re
cognised by the sensors of the parking
aid.
Note
•
The parking aid does not operate if you are towing a trailer (applies to models
which feature a factory-fitted towing device*).•
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after switching the ignition on and
engaging reverse gear, and there is no obstac
le close to your vehicle, this indicates a
system fault. Have the fault rectified by a specialist workshop.•
The sensors must be kept clean and free of ice to enable the parking aid to operate
properly.
Front and rear parking aid*The parking aid provides a warning of
obstacles in front and behind the
vehicle.Fig. 118 Activating the
parking aid / detection range of the front sensors
The audible parking aid determines the distan
ce between the front or rear bumper and
an obstacle with the aid of ultrasound sensors. The sensors are integrated in the front and rear bumper. The signal tones for the fr
ont parking aid sound higher as standard
than for the rear parking aid. The tones of the parking aid can be adapted in the menu of the information display*
⇒page 27.
Range of sensors The distance warning begins at a distance
of about 120°cm from the obstacle in front
of the vehicle (area
⇒fig. 118
) and about 160 cm from the obstacle behind the
vehicle (area )
⇒page 113, fig. 117
. The interval between the warning signals
becomes shorter as the clearance is reduced. A continuous tone sounds from
a distance of approx. 30
cm (area ) - danger area.
From this moment on do not continue driving!
If the vehicle is equipped with a
factory-fitted towing device*, the border of
the danger area starts - continuous tone -
5 cm further behind the vehicle. The vehi
cle can be extended through an installed
detachable towing device. On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted
radio* or navigation system*, the distance
to the obstruction is shown graphically in the
display. On vehicles with a factory-fitted
towing device, the rear sensors are deactivated when towing a trailer. The driver is informed about this by a graphic display (vehic

Mobile phones and tw
o-way radio systems
The installation of a mobile phone and two-way radio system in a vehicle should be carried out by a specialist garage. Mobile phones send and receive radio wave
s during a conversation as well as in
standby mode. Radio waves can be harmful
to the human body if their frequency
exceeds certain limit values. 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 yourself at
a specialist garage about the possibilites to
assemble and operate systems
which have a power output of more than 10 W. They
will inform you which technical possibilit
ies exist for retrofitting mobile phones.
When using a mobille phone inside the vehicl
e, which is not inserted into the phone
adapter, and thus has no connection to the
external aerial, the electromagnetic radia-
tion can exceed the current limit value. We therefore recommend to operate a mobile phone in the vehicle only when it is conne
cted to an external aerial via the phone
adapter. This improves the quality of the connection. Operation of mobile phones or two-way ra
dio systems may interfere with functioning
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.
WARNING
•
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio
system is operated in the vehicle
without using a special exte
rnal aerial or an extern
al aerial 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!
•
You must not install two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts on
the covers of the airbags or within the immediate deployment range of airbags. This might result in injuries to the
occupants in the event of an accident.
•
Never leave a mobile phone on a seat, on
the dash panel or in another area,
from which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeuver, an accident or a collision. In this case, the occupants of the vehicle might be injured.
Note
Observe the country-specific regulations for the use of mobile phones in vehicles.Universal telephone preinstallation GSM II*IntroductionThe telephone preinstallation GSM ll is a complete and built-in “handsfree-system”, it provides a voice operated convenience mode via the multifunction steering wheel* or the touchscreen of the radio*
or the navigation system*.
All communication between a telephone and
the handsfree-system of your vehicle
can only be established with the help of the Bluetooth
® technology. The adapter*
serves only for charging the telephone and fo
r transmitting the signal to the external
aerial of the vehicle. To ensure an optimum signal transmission, always leave the telephone with the adapter* in the telephone mount. A phone phonebook is part of the mobile ph
one preinstallation with voice control. In
the phone phonebook there are 1 500 free me
mory locations available. This phone
phonebook is independent of the a
ppliance used for the mobile phone.
If the system answers with the voice response “
Telephone is not ready
”, please check
the operating state of the telephone as follows:
a)Only valid for the navigation system Columbus.
