Instruments and Indicator Lights

XDL function (Fabia RS and Fabia Estate RS only)
XDL is an extension to the electronic differential lock. XDL does not respond to
traction, but to the relief of the inner front wheel during fast cornering. The active
brake intervention on the brake of the inner wheel prevents it from spinning.
Thus, the traction is improved and the vehicle continues to follow the desired
track.
ÐShifting (manual gearbox)
Fig. 85
Shift pattern of the 5-speed
manual gearbox
Always depress the clutch pedal fully when changing gear, to prevent excessive
wear of the clutch.
The gearshift indicator must be observed when changing gear » page 11, Recom-
mended gear .
Only engage reverse gear when the vehicle is stationary. Depress the clutch pedal
and hold it fully depressed. Wait a moment before reverse gear is engaged to
avoid any shift noises.
The reversing light will come on once reverse gear is engaged, provided the igni-
tion is on. WARNING
Never engage reverse gear when driving - risk of accident! Note
If not in the process of changing gear, do not leave your hand on the gearshift
lever while driving. The pressure from the hand can cause the gearshift mecha-
nism to wear excessively. Ð pedals
The operation of the pedals must not be hindered under any circumstances!
In the driver's footwell, only a footmat, which is attached to the two correspond-
ing attachment points, may be used.
Only use footmats from the range of
ŠKODA Original Accessories, which are fitted
to two attachment points. WARNING
No objects are allowed in the driver's footwell – risk of obstruction or limita-
tion in operating the pedal! Ð Parking aid
Fig. 86
Parking aid: Range of sensors
The parking aid determines the distance between the rear bumper and an obsta-
cle with the aid of ultrasound sensors. The sensors are integrated in the rear
bumper.
Range of sensors
The clearance warning begins at a distance of about 160 cm from the obstacle
(area A
» Fig. 86
). The interval between the warning signals becomes shorter as
the clearance is reduced.
A continuous tone sounds from a distance of approx. 30 cm (area B
) - danger
area. You should not reverse any further after this signal sounds!
On vehicles with a factory-fitted radio or navigation system, the distance to the
obstacle is simultaneously graphically illustrated on the display, refer to the oper-
ating instructions for the radio or navigation system. £

Starting-off and Driving

Communication
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
ŠKODA 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.
Please refer to a ŠKODA Service Partner for information about the possibilities of
installing and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems that have a
transmission power of more than 10
W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the func-
tionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The reasons for this are as follows:
› no external aerial;
› external aerial incorrectly installed;
› transmission power greater than 10 watts. WARNING
■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for road safety. Use the telephone system only to such an extent
that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.
■ The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served.
■ If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incorrectly,
this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle. ■ Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■ 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 manoeuvre, an accident
or a collision - risk of injury.
■ In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth ®
function for the hands-free sys-
tem must be switched off by a specialist garage. Note
■ We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a ŠKODA

Service Partner.
■ Not all mobile phones that enable Bluetooth ®
communication are compatible
with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM
II. You can ask an authorised
ŠKODA Service Partner whether your telephone is compatible with the universal
telephone preinstallation GSM II. ■ 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 in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when estab-
lishing a connection with the hands-free-system or transferring data. Ð Universal telephone preinstallation GSM II
Introductory information
The universal telephone preinstallation GSM
II (hands-free system) includes a
convenience mode for the mobile phone via voice control, the multifunction
steering wheel, the adapter, radio or the navigation system.
The universal telephone preinstallation GSM II comprises the following functions.
› Phone Phonebook » page 96
.
› Convenience operation of the telephone via the multifunction steering
wheel
» page 96 .
› Managing telephone calls via the adapter
» page 97.
› Operation of the telephone via the information display
» page 99.
› Voice control of the telephone
» page 99.
› Music playback from the telephone or other multimedia units
» page 101.
All communication between a mobile phone and your vehicle's hands-free system
is established with the help of Bluetooth ®
technology. The adapter serves only
for charging the telephone and for transmitting the signal to the vehicle's exter-
nal aerial. Note
The following guidelines must be observed » page 95, Mobile phones and two-
way radio systems. Ð

Communication

Phone Phonebook
A phone phonebook is part of the hands-free system. This phone phonebook can
be used depending on the type of mobile phone.
After the first connection of the telephone, the system begins to load the phone
book from the phone and the SIM card into the memory of the control unit.
Each time the telephone has established a new connection with the hands-free
system, an update of the relevant phone book is performed. The updating can
take a few minutes. During this time the phone book, which was stored after the
last update was completed, is available. Newly stored telephone numbers are on-
ly shown after the updating has ended. The update is interrupted if a telephone event (e.g. incoming or outgoing call,
voice control dialogue) occurs during the updating procedure. After the telephone
event has ended, the updating starts anew.
The internal phonebook provides 2
500 free memory locations. Each contact can
contain up to 4 numbers.
If the number of contacts loaded exceeds 2 500, the phone book is not complete. ÐOperating the phone on the multifunction steering wheel
Fig. 92
Multifunction steering wheel:
Mobile phone operation The driver can set the basic functions of the telephone by simply operating the
buttons located on the steering wheel so that he can concentrate on the traffic
situation without being distracted as little as possible by operating the tele-
phone
» Fig. 92 .
This applies only if your vehicle has been equipped with the universal telephone
preinstallation (hands-free system) at the factory.
If the side lights are switched on, the buttons and the symbols  and  on the
multifunction steering wheel are illuminated.

Dialogue
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice commands
and to carry them out is called a dialogue. The system gives audible feedback and
guides you if necessary through the relevant functions.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors.
› Speak with a normal tone of voice without intonation and excessive pauses.
› Avoid a bad pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof, 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, limit additional noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers talking
at the same time.
› Do not speak, if the system makes an announcement.
