Central locking system
Description When using the central locking and unlocking system,
all the doors and the fuel
filler flap are locked or unlocked at the same time (if it was not set differently in
the menu point Settings - Convenience of the information display). The boot lid is
unlocked when opening. It can be opened by pressing the hand grip above the li-
cence plate ⇒ page 36.
Operation of the central locking system is possible:
● from the outside using the vehicle key ⇒  page 34,
● using the button for the central locking system ⇒ page 35,
● with a remote control key ⇒
 page 37,
Indicator light in the driver's door
After locking the vehicle, the warning light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick
succession, afterwards it begins to flash evenly at longer intervals.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system ⇒ page 34 is not operating,
the indicator light in the driver door flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and
starts to flash evenly at longer intervals after about 30 seconds.
If the indicator light first of all flashes fast for about 2 seconds, afterwards lights
up for about 30 seconds and then flashes slowly, there is a fault in the system of
the central locking or the interior monitor ⇒ page 39. Visit a specialist garage to
obtain assistance.
Convenience operation of windows
One can open and close the electrically powered windows when unlocking and
locking the vehicle ⇒ page 41.
Opening a single door
This function makes it possible to only unlock the driver's door. The other doors
and the fuel filler flap remain locked and are only unlocked after repetitive unlock-
ing.
This function can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
On vehicles with an information display, this function can be switched on in the
menu Settings Convenience - Door open. Unlocking a vehicle side door
This selection function enables to unlock both doors on the driver's side. The oth-
er doors and the fuel filler flap remain locked and are only unlocked after repeti-
tive unlocking.
You can have the function opening a single door activated by an authorised
ŠKODA

Service Partner on request or you can activate it yourself with the aid of
the Information display ⇒ page 20.
Automatic locking and unlocking
All the doors and the boot lid are locked automatically once the car reaches a
speed of about 15 km/h.
If the ignition key is withdrawn, the car is then automatically unlocked again. In
addition, it is possible for the driver to unlock the car by pressing the central lock-
ing button  or by pulling the door opening lever.
This function can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
On vehicles with an information display, this function can be switched on in the
menu Settings Convenience - Door open. WARNING
Locking the doors prevents that doors open on their own in an exceptional sit-
uation (accident). Locked doors also prevent unauthorised entry into the vehi-
cle from outside, for example at road crossings. Locked doors do, however,
make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency -
danger to life! Note
● In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehi-
cle.
● Only the front door which is fitted with a locking cylinder can be unlocked and
locked using the key if the central locking system fails. You can lock or unlock
manually the other doors and the boot lid.

Safe securing
The central locking system is equipped with a
safe securing system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automatically blocked. The
warning light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it be-
gins to flash evenly at longer intervals. It is not possible to open the doors with
the door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts as an effec-
tive deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system by locking twice within 2
seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operating, the warning light in the driver door
flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and starts to flash evenly at longer in-
tervals after about 30°seconds.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is unlocked
and locked again.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, you can open
the vehicle from the inside by pulling on the door opening lever. The door is un-
locked and opened at the same time. WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person and animals in the vehicle as it is then
not possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked
doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergen-
cy - hazard! Note
● The anti-theft alarm system is also activated with the deactivated safe secur-
ing system when locking the vehicle. The interior monitor is however not activa-
ted.
● When activating the Safelock function after you lock the vehicle, the message
CHECK DEADLOCK will appear to inform you about this. In vehicles equipped with
an information display, the message Check deadlock! appears Owner's manual!

Locking and Unlocking

Remote control
Description You can use the remote control key:
●
to unlock and lock the car,
● unlocking boot lid,
● electrically open and close the windows.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the
remote control key is approx. 10 m. But this range of the remote control can be
reduced if the batteries are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking the
car manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or a new unit in-
stalled, it is then necessary for an authorised
ŠKODA Service Partner to initialise
the system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control key. Note
● The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched
on.
● The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
● The battery must be replaced if the central locking or anti-theft alarm system
does react to the remote control at less than 3
metres away ⇒ page 31.
● If the driver door is opened, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote
control. Unlocking and locking car Fig. 17 Remote control key

Display of the locking
The turn signal lights flash once to confirm that the vehicle has been correctly
locked.
If the vehicle is locked by pressing the button
3 and some doors or the boot lid
are not closed, the turn signal lights flash only after closing. WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person in the vehicle as it is then not possible to
open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it
more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard! Note
● Operate the radio remote control only when the doors and boot lid are closed
and you have visual contact with the vehicle.
● Once in the car, you must not press the lock button  of the radio remote con-
trol before inserting the key into the ignition lock in order to avoid the car being
inadvertently locked and the alarm system being switched on. Should this happen,
press the unlock button  of the radio remote control. 
Synchonisation of the remote control If the vehicle cannot be unlocked by actuating the remote control system then it
is possible that the code in the key and the control unit in the vehicle are no lon-
ger synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the radio-operated key are
actuated a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or
the battery on the remote control was replaced.
This means it is necessary to synchronise the code as follows:
● press any button on the remote control;
● pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1
minute. Anti-theft alarm system
Description The anti-theft alarm system increases the level of protection against people seek-
ing to break into the vehicle. The system triggers audible and visual warning sig-
nals if an attempt is made to break into the vehicle.
How is the alarm system activated?
The anti-theft alarm system is activated automatically when the vehicle is locked
with the key on the driver's door or by using the radio remote control. It is activa-
ted 30 seconds after locking the door.
How is the alarm system deactivated?
The anti-theft alarm system is deactivated if the vehicle is unlocked by only using
the radio remote control. The anti-theft alarm system is reactivated if the vehicle
is not opened within 30 seconds after transmitting the radio signal.
Once you unlock the vehicle by inserting the key into the driver door you then
have to insert the key into the ignition lock and switch the ignition on within 15
seconds after opening the door in order to deactivate the anti-theft alarm system.
The alarm will be triggered if you do not switch on the ignition within 15 seconds.
When is the alarm triggered?
The following security areas of the locked vehicle are monitored:
● Bonnet,
● Boot lid,
● Doors,
● Ignition lock,
● Vehicle inclination ⇒ page 39,
● Vehicle interior ⇒ page 39,
● A drop in voltage of the on-board power supply,
● Socket of the factory-fitted towing device.
An alarm is immediately triggered if either of the two battery terminals is discon- nected while the anti-theft alarm system is activated.
How is the alarm switched off?
You switch the alarm off if you unlock the vehicle with the radio remote control or
if you switch the ignition on. £38

● After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the windows
for a further 10 minutes. The automatic closing and opening functions will not op-
erate during this time. The power windows are switched off completely once you
open the driver or front passenger door.
● When driving always use the existing heating, air conditioning and ventilation
system for ventilating the interior of the vehicle. If the windows are opened, dust
as well as other dirt can get into the vehicle and in addition the wind noise is more
at certain speeds. 

Switching lights on and off  Fig. 24 Dash panel: Light switch
Switching on side lights
– Turn the light switch ⇒ fig. 24 into position .
Switching on the low beam and main beam
– Turn the light switch into position .
– Push the main beam lever slightly forward in the spring-tensioned position in
order to switch on the main beam ⇒ fig. 30 .
Switching off lights (except daylight driving lights)
– Turn the light switch into position.
The dipped beam continues to shine while the ignition is switched on and the
light switch is in the position  or  . After switching off the ignition, the low
beam is switched off automatically and only the side lights come on. The parking
light also goes out after the ignition key is removed.
On models fitted with right-hand steering the position of certain switches differs
from that shown in ⇒
 fig. 24. The symbols which mark the switch positions are
identical, however. WARNING
Never drive with only the side lights on - risk of accident! The side lights are
not bright enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen
by other oncoming traffic. In this case, always switch on the low beam when it
is dark or if visibility is poor. Note
● If the light switch is in the position , the ignition key is removed and the
driver's door is open, an acoustic warning signal will sound. The acoustic warning
signal is switched off over the door contact when the driver's door is closed (igni-
tion off). The vehicle can be parked with the side lights on.
● If the light switch is in the position  and the ignition key is removed, the
lights will go out.
● If the car is parked for a lengthy period, we recommend switching off all lights,
or leaving only the parking lights switched on.
● The switching on of the described lights should only be undertaken in accord-
ance with the legal requirements.
● If a fault occurs in the light switch, the low beam comes on automatically
● In the event of cool or humid weather conditions, the headlights can be misted
up from inside.
–The temperature difference between interior and external area of the head-
light lenses is decisive.
– When the driving lights are switched on, the light outlet surfaces are free
from mist after a short period. The headlight lenses can possibly mist up at the
border areas.
– It also concerns reverse light and turn signal lights.
– This mist has no influence on the life of the lighting system. 
