.
Switching the system on and off– The system is switched on or off by pressing the control button . The last active audio source before switching off is repeated. If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock while the unit is switched on, the unit will switch off automatically. You can then switch the unit on again. If the
ignition is switched off, the unit (discharge
protection of the vehicle battery) switches
off automatically after approx. one hour.
This process can be repeated as often as necessary.Anti-theft protectionThe anti-theft coding of your navigation sy
stem prevents an operation of the system
after a voltage interruption, e.g. during a vehicle repair or after theft. After discon-necting the battery, disconnecting the navigati
on system from the on-board voltage of
the vehicle and after a fuse failure, the code
must be entered before the vehicle can be
used again.Enter code– If a keypad appears after switching on
with the command to enter the code, the
unit can be unlocked by entering the corr
ect four-digit code number. The number
of the possible attempts is shown in the second touch-screen line.
– Press a digit from to on the digit block displayed on the screen. The digit is

– Press on the touch-screen to erase the digits in the entry line from right to left
and thereby correct your input, if necessary.
– If the correct code number is di
splayed in the entry line, press .
Code number The code number can only be called up “onlin
e” via the Škoda system, as this guaran-
tees even more effective anti-theft protec
tion. Please contact your Škoda dealer if
necessary. Incorrect code number If an incorrect code is confirmed after entry
of the code, the procedure can be repeated
once again
. The number of possible attempts is
shown in the second line on the
touch-screen. If the code number is entered incorrectly fo
r the second time, the unit will be blocked
for approx. one hour. It is possible to ente
r again the safety code
after one hour has
expired, when the unit and the ig
nition have been switched on.
If two invalid attempts are then made agai
n, the navigation syst
em will be blocked
again for an hour. The cycle - two attempts, blocked for
an hour - will continue to apply.
Note
The code is normally stored in the instrument
cluster. This ensures that it is automati-
cally decoded (convenience coding). Ma
nual input of the code is normally not
necessary.
