2011 SKODA YETI phone

●
Inserting the mobile phone into the adapter ensures an optimal sending and
receiving power and offers at the same time the advantage of the battery charg-
ing.
● 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 be-
tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mobile
phone is e.g. in a jacket pocket, this can lead to difficulties when establishing the
Bluetooth ®
connection with the hands-free system or the data transfer. 
Inserting the mobile phone and adapter Fig. 110 Universal preparation for the
mobile phone
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 and adapter
– First of all push the adapter A in the direction of arrow
⇒ fig. 110 up to the
stop into the mount. Press the adapter slightly downwards, until it locks se-
curely into position.
– Insert the mobile phone into the adapter A (as specified in manufacturer's in-
structions).
Removing the mobile phone and adapter
– Press simultaneously the side locks of the mount ⇒ fig. 110 and remove the
mobile phone and adapter . CAUTION
Taking the mobile phone out of the adapter during the call can lead to interrup-
tion of the connection. When taking out the mobile 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. 

Voice control
Dialogue On vehicles which are factory-fitted with the navigation system Co-
lumbus, it is only possible to operate the voice control via this navi-
gation system, see the operating instructions for Columbus.
The period, in which the telephone system is ready to receive voice commands
and carry out the voice commands, is called DIALOGUE. The system gives audible
feedback and guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on the following
factors:
● Speak at a normal volume, without intonation and excessive voice pauses.
● Avoid insufficient articulation.
● Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, in order to reduce or stop disturbing
exterior noise.
● It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that the tone of your
voice is louder than the increased surrounding noise.
● During the dialogue avoid additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. simultaneously
talking occupants.
● Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
● The microphone for voice control is inserted in the moulded headliner and di-
rected to the driver and front passenger. Therefore the driver and the front pas-
senger can operate the equipment.
If a voice command is not detected, the system answers with
“Sorry?” and a new
entry can be performed. After the 2nd error the system repeats the aid. After the
3rd error the answer “Procedure cancelled ” is given and the dialogue is ended.
Switch on voice control (dialogue)
● by briefly pressing the  button on the adapter
1)
⇒  fig. 111 ;
● by pressing the 1 button on the multi-function steering wheel for a longer
time ⇒ fig. 112 . Switching off voice control (dialogue)
If the system is currently playing a message, you will need to stop the message
currently being played:
●
by briefly pressing the  button on the adapter
1)
;
● by pressing the 1 button on the multi-function steering wheel for a longer
time.
If the system expects a voice command, you can end the dialogue yourself:
● Do some with the CANCEL voice command;
● by pressing the  button on the adapter
1)
;
● by pressing the 1 button on the multi-function steering wheel for a longer
time. Note
● The dialogue of an incoming call is immediately interrupted.
● The voice control is only possible in vehicles fitted with a multi-function steer-
ing wheel with telephone control or a phone holder and adapter. 

What influences the driving safety? The driving safety is primarily determined by the style of driving
and the personal behaviour of all the occupants.
The driver is fully responsible for himself and his occupants. If your driving safety
is effected, you place yourself and the oncoming traffic at risk. Please refer to the
following guidelines.
● Do not get distracted from concentrating on the traffic situation, e.g. by your
occupants or mobile phone calls.
● Never drive when your driving ability is impaired, e.g. through medication, alco-
hol, drugs.
● Keep to the traffic regulations and the permissible speed limit.
● Adjust the driving speed at all times to the road condition as well as to the
traffic and weather conditions.
● Take regular breaks on long journeys - at the latest every two hours. Correct seated position
Correct seated position for the driver Correct seated position for the driver is important for safe and re-
laxed driving.
Fig. 115 The correct distance of the driver from the steering wheel and the gear lever/The
correct head restraint adjustment for the driver
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident, we
recommend the following setting.
● Position the steering wheel so that there is a gap of at least 25 cm between
the steering wheel and the chest, and the distance between the legs and the gear
lever at the height of the knee airbag is at least 10

cm ⇒ fig. 115 - left.
● Position the driver seat in the forward/back direction so that you are able to
press the pedals with your legs at a slight angle, and the distance between the
knee and the gear lever is at least 10

cm.
● Adjust the seat backrest so that you are able to reach the highest point of the
steering wheel with your arms at a slight angle.
● Adjust the head restraint so that the top edge of the head restraint is at the
same level as the upper part of your head ⇒

 fig. 115 - right.
● Fasten the seat belt correctly ⇒

tened?.

WARNING (Continued)
● The steering wheel and the surface of the airbag module in the dash panel
on the passenger side must not be stuck onto, covered or modified in any oth-
er way. These parts should only be cleaned with a dry cloth or a cloth mois-
tened with water. No objects such as cup holders, mobile phone mounts, etc.
may be attached to the covers of the airbag modules or be located within the
immediate area.
● No modifications of any kind may be made to parts of the airbag system.
Any work on the airbag system including installing and removing system com-
ponents because of other repair work (e.g. removing the steering wheel) must
only be carried out by a specialist garage.
● Never carry out changes on the front bumper or on the body.
● Never place any objects on the surface of the front passenger airbag mod-
ule in the dash panel. 
Driver's knee airbag Description of the driver's knee airbags The knee airbag reduces the risk of injury to the legs.
Fig. 124 Driver's knee airbag below the
steering column
The driver's knee airbag is located in the lower part of the dash panel below the
steering column ⇒
 fig. 124 . The fitting position is shown in a picture on the side
surface of the dash panel on the driver's side. The driver's knee airbag is complementary to the three-point seat belt and offers
adequate protection to the knees of the driver. Please note that an airbag can
only offer you optimal protection in combination with a seat belt which is fas-
tened.
Apart from their normal protective function, a further task of the seat belt is to
also hold the driver in a correct seated position in the event of a frontal collision
so as to enable the knee airbag to offer the maximum protection.
You should therefore always fasten the seat belts, not only because this is re-
quired by law, but also for safety reasons and for your own protection ⇒ page 132,
Why seat belts?

. 
Function of the driver's knee airbags The airbag system is designed in such a way that the driver's knee airbag is de-
ployed together with the belt tensioner in the event of a frontal collision of major
severity.
If an airbag is deployed, the airbag is filled with gas. The airbags inflate in frac-
tions of a second and at a high speed in order to be able to offer that additional
protection in the event of an accident.
A grey white, non harmful gas is released when airbag is inflated. This is perfectly
normal and is not an indication of a fire in the vehicle.
The forward movement of the body is cushioned when it makes contact with the
fully inflated airbag and the risk of injury to the legs of the driver is thus reduced. 140

Explanation of technical terms
Fig. 146 Embankment angle/slope angle
Fig. 147 Ground clearance/ramp angle
The technical data
⇒
 page 230, Angle (in degree) refer to ideal conditions. These
values may differ depending on the load and composition of the soil and the envi-
ronment. The driver is responsible to decide whether a vehicle can overcome a
certain situation.
Embankment angle (front and rear) ATransition from the horizontal plane to an upward slope or from a downward
slope back to the plane. The angle indication determines the angle at which you
can drive the vehicle down the embankment, at a slow speed, without the bumper
or the underbody of the vehicle touching the ground. Slope angle
B The difference of altitude (upward slope) which is overcome on a stretch of road
of 100 m, is indicated in percentage or degrees, i.e the gradiant at which the vehi-
cle can climb a hill on its own (among other things, depending on the road surface
and the engine power).
Ground clearance
C The distance between the road surface and the deepest point of the vehicle un-
derbody.
Ramp angle D The angle indication determines the angle at which you can drive the vehicle over
a ramp, at a slow speed, without the underbody of the vehicle touching the ramp
edge.
WARNING
When exceeding the maximum value given in the table ⇒
 page 230, Angle (in
degree), this can result in serious injuries and/or vehicle damage. All of the da-
ta was determined on flat, firm and non-slip road surfaces as well as under dry
weather conditions. There are no ideal off-road conditions. Therefore, never
completely go according to the maximum values, but always leave a safety
margin. 
Useful utensils Many items can be very useful when driving off-road, for example:
● compass and maps,
● torch and spare batteries,
● mobile phone or CB radio,
● tow bar or tow rope with sufficient tear strength,
● electrically driven tyre pump for connecting to the 12-volt power outlet of the
vehicle,
● a blanket and rubber boots,
● snow chains,
● a timber plank which is approximately 4 cm thick and about 1 metre long can
be used as a traction aid when the vehicle is stuck or as a base for the lifting jack,
● additional tools and a folding yardstick or a measuring tape, £170
