ple at road crossings. Locked doors do, however, make it more difficult for res-
cuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - danger to life! Note
■ You can have the individual settings activated by a ŠKODA
Service Partner or
you can activate them yourself with the help of the information display » page 16,
Settings. ■ 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 driver's door can be unlocked or locked using the key if the central
locking system fails » page 35. The other doors and the boot lid can be manually

■ Emergency unlocking of the boot lid » page 37. ÐSafe securing system
The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system. The door
locks are blocked automatically if the vehicle is locked from the outside. The indi-
cator light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it begins
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 effective
deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle. The safe securing system can be deactivated within 2 seconds by double locking
the vehicle.
If the safe securing system is not in operation:
› the indicator light in the driver door flashes rapidly for about 2

seconds, goes
out and starts to flash at regular, longer intervals after about 30 seconds;
› is the filler flap locked.
The safe securing system is activated again the next time the vehicle is unlocked
and locked.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, the vehicle
can be opened from the inside by pulling the door opening lever. 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 no longer pos-
sible 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
■ The anti-theft alarm system is activated when the vehicle is locked even if the
safe securing system is deactivated. The interior monitor is however not activa-
ted. ■ After locking the vehicle, you will be informed that the safe securing system is
activated by means of the message CHECK DEADLOCK on the instrument cluster
display. On vehicles that are equipped with an information display, the following
message will appear Check deadlock! Owner's manual! appears.Ð

ther a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more diffi-
cult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency - hazard! Note

SKODA SUPERB 2012 2.G / (B6/3T) Owners Manual Synchronisation
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.

Synchronisation
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 key;
› pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1 mi-
nute. ÐKESSY system
Introductory information
The KESSY system (Keyless Entry Start Exit System) enables a comfort unlocking
and locking of the vehicle and a start-up without actively using the remote con-
trol key. The KESSY system is integrated in the central locking system.
The safe securing system and anti-theft alarm system correspond to vehicles
without the KESSY system. Only the control elements are different.
When unlocking and locking the vehicle or for starting the engine it suffices to
carry the key with you, e.g. in your pocket. ÐLocking/unlocking
Fig. 13
KESSY: Designation of the areas and unlocking/locking the vehicle To lock/unlock a vehicle fitted with the KESSY system, it is necessary for the valid
remote control key to be located no more than around 1.5

key is located. In the area A
, the vehicle can be unlocked by the handle of the
front left door, in the area C
, the boot lid can be unlocked.
If you cover the sensor 2
at the same time as the sensor 1
when unlocking the
vehicle, it is not unlocked.
Locking
The driver door or front passenger door must be closed when locking. Do not grab
the door handle, otherwise the vehicle cannot be locked.
If the vehicle is fitted with the electric boot lid, the lid starts to open after press-
ing the handle.
After the boot lid is closed, it will be locked. On vehicles fitted with automatic
gearbox, the selector lever must be moved into the position P before unlocking.
Check locking
After locking the vehicle by means of the sensor 1
»
Fig. 13, it is not possible to
unlock the vehicle using the sensor 2
for 2 seconds. Pull on the handle to check
if the vehicle is locked. CAUTION
