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
Device operation The unit 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.

Note
Dirt or damage of a CD can lead to difficulties when “reading” the information. The
difficulty in reading the error depends on the dirt or on the severity of the me-
chanical damage. Severe scratches cause reading errors which can make the CD
jump or
“get stuck ”. All CDs must be treated carefully and always be stored in a
protective case. Ð

operated via the radio.
Input MDI - Multimedia socket

It is possible to play back external audio sources via the loudspeakers of the radio
in the vehicle.
You can select another audio source on the radio at any time. As long as the ex-
ternal audio source is not switched off, it remains always active in the back-
ground.
Please refer to the Owner's manual of the respective manufacturer for the opera-
tion of the external audio source. If a MEDIA-IN socket is additionally installed, the button
MDI is displayed instead
of the function key AUX in the Audio menu
. Please note that an audio source con-
nected to the AUX-IN socket can only be replayed, if there is currently no data car-
rier connected to the MDI input.
Use the standard jack plug 3.5
mm for the AUX-IN socket. If the external audio
source does not have this jack plug, you must use an adapter.
Adjust the play function volume of the external audio source
The play function volume of the external audio source can be changed via the vol-
ume control on the radio.
Depending on the connected audio source, the output volume on the external au-
dio source can be changed.
You can also change the input sensitivity of the external audio source, in order for
the play function volume of the external audio source to adapt to other audio
sources or to avoid distortions of the play function volume.
Adapter
A special adapter is required to connect audio sources via the input MDI.
We recommend that you purchase an adapter for connecting the USB devices, the
devices with Mini USB output or an iPod, at an authorised ŠKODA Service Partner.

ta volume, it can lead to a time delay when reading in the overview of the music
