Important information Warranty The equipment warranty terms and conditions also apply for new vehicles.
After the expiration of the warranty, a piece of equipment in need of repair will be
replaced with a reconditioned, original item with spare part warranty. It is, howev-
er, a precondition that the housing has not been damaged and no unauthorised
attempts have been made to carry out repairs. Note
Damage within the meaning of the warranty must not be the result of improper
handling of the system or from unprofessional repair attempts. It is also essential
that there is no external damage. Ð
Operation of radio The radio should only be used, if the traffic situation permits it.
The volume settings must be selected in such a way that audible signals from the
outside, e.g. a Martins horn from utility vehicles (police cars, ambulances and fire
brigade), can be heard at all times. 

WARNING
Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for road safety. Only use the functions of the radio in such a way
that you are always in full control of your vehicle in all traffic situations! Ð
Using the display Carefully handle the display because dents and scratches can occur through pres-
sure of the finger or contact with sharp objects.
The display can be cleaned with a soft cloth and finger marks can be wiped away
with pure alcohol. Note
Do not use solvent such as turpentine or petrol as they will corrode the display
surface. Ð
Anti-theft protection Anti-theft coding Your radio is equipped with a convenience coding. If the radio is being operated
for the first time, the safety code is not only stored in the radio but also in the ve-
hicle.
After disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, first of all switch on the ignition
and then the radio.
If you wish to install the radio in another vehicle, the safety code must be entered.
In this case, please do not hesitate to contact a
ŠKODA Service Partner or a
ŠKODA importer.
As the unit only functions after entering the safety code, this practically excludes
its use after a theft - a contribution to increased anti-theft safety. Note
The code is stored in the instrument cluster. This ensures that it is automatically
decoded (convenience coding). Manual input of the code is normally not necessa-
ry. Ð
Enter code –
Switch on the radio if the ignition is on. SAFE
is displayed and then 1000.
– Enter the safety code using the station keys 1 -
4 .
– Confirm the safety code by pressing the station key 6 .
If you have confirmed a wrongly entered code, you can repeat once again the en-
tire process.
If the code number is entered incorrectly for the second time, the unit will be
blocked for approx. one hour. It is possible to enter again the safety code after
one hour has expired, when the unit and the ignition have been switched on.
The cycle - two attempts, blocked for an hour - will continue to apply. Ð
Basic setting Switching the unit on and off –
The system is switched on or off by pressing the control button 1 .
If the key is pulled out of the ignition lock while the unit is switched on, the unit
will switch off automatically. You can switch on the unit again by pressing the
control button 1 . If the ignition is switched off, the unit (discharge protection of
the vehicle battery) switches off automatically after approx. one hour.
If you have switched off the radio by withdrawing the ignition key, the radio
switches on again once the ignition is on. Ð

REG AUTO / REG OFF
Certain programs of the broadcasting companies are divided into regional pro-
grams at specific times. That is why in individual regions the regional programs of
a station can broadcast different contents.
First of all the unit attempts to set only alternative frequencies of the selected
station.
If the quality is however so low, that there is a risk of a

“program loss”, the unit
also accepts “related” frequencies.
When opting for REG AUTO the change to a regional “related” station can only be
performed if there is a risk of losing the station. When selecting REG OFF, the re-
ceiver can access the regional “related” stations unlimited.

Your radio increases automatically its volume with the increasing vehicle speed. A
higher setting value results in a stronger volume increase.
