General information
Operating instructions
These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without
identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent
equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in these operating instructions.
The scope of equipment for your vehicle is described in the sales documentation
you were given when purchasing the car. For more information, contact your local
ŠKODA retailer. ÐExplanation of symbols

Safety instructions
WARNING
■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for road safety. Only use the system so that you are in full control of
your vehicle in every traffic situation - risk of accident! ■ Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside, e.g. sirens
from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police, ambulance and fire
brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time. ■ High volumes can cause hearing damage. Ð Warranty
The equipment warranty terms and conditions apply to this unit just like to new
vehicles - see the service schedule. Ð Screen
CAUTION
■ Do not use solvents such as benzine or turpentine, which may damage the
screen surface.
■ Treat the screen with care, as finger pressure or contact with sharp objects may
cause dents and scratches on the surface. Note
The screen can be cleaned with a soft cloth and alcohol if necessary. Ð Signal receipt
Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio and GPS sig-
nal even causing it to fail completely. Ð Anti-theft protection
The anti-theft coding of your radio navigation system prevents an operation of
the system after a voltage interruption, e.g. during a vehicle repair or after theft.
After disconnecting the battery, disconnecting the radio navigation system from
the on-board voltage of the vehicle or after a fuse failure, the code must be en-
tered before the system can be used again. The code number can only be called
up
“online” via the ŠKODA system, as this guarantees even more effective anti-
theft protection. Please contact your authorised ŠKODA Service Partner, if neces-
sary.
Enter code
If a keypad appears after switching on with the command to enter the code, the
unit must be unlocked by entering the correct four-digit code.
› Enter the four-digit code using the function keys
0 to
9 . The digit is accepted
in the entry line. 

(condensation). This can effect the CD jump or impair the play function. In such
cases, wait until the moisture has dissipated.
Notes for the care of the CD/DVDs
If a CD/DVD is soiled, never clean it in a circular motion but rather from inside to
outside with a soft lint-free cloth. In case of severe layers of dirt we recommend
to clean the CD/DVD with a commercially available CD/DVD cleaner. Also in this
case, do not clean the CD/DVD in a circular motion but rather from inside to out-
side, and then let it dry. MP3 and WMA Data (Windows Media Audio)

the navigation DVD for the navigation.
› If you are again in the area of the map material stored in the navigation memo-
ry, press the key  to take out the navigation DVD.
Up to date navigation data and new navigation DVD
Road guidance is subject to constant changes (e.g. new streets, changes of street
names and house numbers). A navigation DVD is a huge data store, which un-
fortunately will not be up to date after a certain time. This could cause problems
during route guidance.
It is for this reason that you must regularly update the navigation data on your
unit with a current navigation DVD.

Dynamic route guidance with TMC use
Requirements for a dynamic route guidance
TMC (Traffic Message Channel) is a digital radio data service for continuous trans-
mission of traffic information.
If a TMC traffic radio station is available for current location, the TMC traffic re-
ports are updated continuously in the background.
The quality of the transmitted traffic reports depends on the traffic editing car-
ried out by the radio station. The reception of the TMC traffic reports cannot be
switched on or off.
The station you are listening to does not have to be a TMC station.
TMC traffic reports can only be evaluated and displayed by the unit if the naviga-
tion data for the currently driven area is stored in the unit's memory or can be re-
trieved from an inserted navigation DVD.
The current TMC traffic reports can be displayed by pressing the range selector
key TMC .
Switching the dynamic navigation on or off › In the main menu
Navigation press the function key Options .
› In the map display, press the button
Navigation or on

.../ ... during a route
guidance and on Route options in the pop-up window.
› In the menu
Route options, press the function key 
Dynamic route and press the
desired setting in the pop-up window.
› Confirm the settings with the function key
OK .
Traffic problems received via TMC which affect the route are displayed in the map
by means of a coloured symbol. Traffic problems, which do not affect the route,
are displayed in the map by means of a grey symbol. The direction in which a traf-
fic problem is found, is displayed by means of an arrow in the symbol. The dura-
tion of a traffic problem on the route is displayed in the map by means of continu-
ous PKW (motor car) symbols .
 Off You are not alerted to received traffic disruptions along your route and are guided
through the traffic disruption by the radio navigation system. TMC traffic reports
are however still updated automatically in the unit. They can be displayed by
pressing the range selector key TMC .
If one of the announced traffic disruptions lies along your route, you can also
switch on the dynamic route guidance during the current route guidance or block
the route manually .  Manual During route guidance you can choose whether you want to divert around the re-
ported traffic problems along your route.
If the radio navigation system is alerted of a traffic disruption on the calculated
route, the driver will be notified of this by means of an audible message and infor-
mation in a pop-up window.
The expected delay incurred in avoiding this traffic problem and the length of the
alternative route will be displayed. The expected time lost when driving through
this traffic problem will also be displayed.
› Press the function key
Current tour to remain on the calculated route and to pass
through the traffic disruption.
› Press the function key
Bypass for an alternative route to be calculated taking in-
to account the announced traffic disruption.
 Automatic You will be automatically diverted around the received traffic problems along your
route during route guidance.
After input of relevant traffic information for your route you will be advised of the
change in the current route guidance by means of an acoustic message. You will
automatically be guided around announced traffic jams or blocked roads, if this
saves time.
Such announcements will also take place if there was a traffic disruption on the
original route, which no longer exists and the radio navigation system recognises
the opportunity to drive the actually more advantageous route. Note
■ There may not be any advantage in avoiding the traffic jam if, as a result of the
TMC traffic reports, the diversion is also heavily congested. ■ If a traffic disruption was not yet entered via the TMC traffic reports, route
blocks can also be entered manually . Ð36
