The loudspeakers in the vehicle are matched to a power output of the radio and
navigation system of 4x 20°W.
For the equipment sound system*, the loudspeakers are matched to a power
output of the amplifier of 4x40°W + 6x20 W.
Mobile phones and two-way radio systemsThe installation of a mobile phone and two-way radio system in a vehicle should be
carried out by a specialist garage.
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 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 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 external aerial or an external 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 universal telephone preinstallation GSM II is a built-in “hands-free system”, it
provides a voice operated convenience mode via the multifunction steering wheel* or
the navigation system*.
All communication between a telephone and the hands-free 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)Only valid for the navigation system Columbus.

Connection with an already paired mobile phone
After switching on the ignition, the connect
ion is automatically established for the
already paired mobile phone
11). Check on the mobile unit if the automatic connection
was established.
Disconnecting the connection
By withdrawing the ignition key.
By disconnecting the device in the information display.
By disconnecting the device in the mobile phone.
Solving connection problems
If the system announces No paired phone found , check the operating state of the
telephone:
Is the telephone switched on?
Is the PIN code entered?
Is Bluetooth
® active?
Is the visibility of the mobile phone active?
Was the telephone already paired with the hands-free system?
WARNING
In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth
® function of the hands-free system
must be switched off by a specialist garage!
Note
Not valid for all mobile phones which enable a communication via Bluetooth
®.
You can ask at an authorised Škoda Service Partner if your telephone is compatible
with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM II.
If a suitable adapter is available for your mobile phone, use your mobile phone
exclusively in the adapter so that the radiation in the vehicle drops to a minimum.
Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal sending and
receiving power and offers at the same ti me the advantage of the battery charging.
The range of the Bluetooth
® connection to the hands-free system is restricted to
the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles between the devices and mutual interferences with other de
vices. If your mobile phone is e.g. in a
jacket pocket, this can lead to diffic ulties when establishing the Bluetooth
® connection
with the hands-free system or the data transfer.
Inserting the mobile phone with the adapter*Only one telephone mount* is factory-fitted. An adapter for the telephone can be
purchased from the range of the Škoda original accessories.Inserting the mobile phone with the adapter– First of all push the adapter fig. 142 in the direction of arrow up to the stop
into the mount. Press the adapter slightly downwards, until it locks securely into
position.
– Insert the mobile phone into the adap ter (as specified in manufacturer's
instructions).Removing the mobile phone with the adapter– Press simultaneouly the side locks of the mount and remove the mobile phone and adapter fig. 142 .
Caution
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter du ring the call can lead to interruption of
the connection. When taking out the mobi le phone, the connection to the factory-
fitted antenna is interrupted, this reduces the quality of the transmitting and receiving
signal. The charging of the mobile phone battery is also interrupted.
