2012 SKODA YETI fold seats

Note
If the safe securing system is activated » page 28, the door opening lever and the
central locking buttons do not operate. ÐRemote control
Introductory information
You can use the remote control key to:
› unlock and lock the vehicle,
› unlocking boot lid;
› open and close the windows
» page 36, Window convenience operation .
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle. The operating range of
the remote control key is approx. 30 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 replaced, the
system must be initialised by a ŠKODA Service Partner. Only then can the remote
control key be used again. 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 26.
■ If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
key. Ð Locking/unlocking

ly locked again and the safe securing system or anti-theft alarm system is reacti-
vated. This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentional-
ly.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the electrically adjustable seats and exteri-
or mirrors move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver
seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved. £

ä WARNING
■ If the vehicle is locked from the outside, do not leave anybody in the vehicle
as it is not possible to open the windows from the inside in the event of an
emergency.
■ The system is fitted with a force limiter » page 36. If there is an obstacle,
the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. The windows should nevertheless be closed carefully! Otherwise
these can cause severe crushing injuries!
■ It is recommended to deactivate the electrically operated power windows in
the rear doors (safety pushbutton) S
» Fig. 18 on page 35 when children are
being transported on the rear seats. CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric win-
dows. ■ In the event that the windows are frozen, first of all eliminate the
ice » page 163, De-icing windows and exterior mirrors and only then operate the
power windows otherwise the power window mechanism could be damaged. ■ When leaving the locked vehicle make sure that the windows are closed at all
times. Note
■ After switching the ignition off, it is still possible to open or close the windows
for approx. 10
minutes. The power windows are only switched off completely
once the driver or front passenger door are opened. ■ 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.
■ At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily
high fuel consumption.
■ The convenience opening of the windows by means of the key in the driver's
lock is only possible within 45
seconds of deactivating or activating the alarm sys-
tem. Ð

This chapter contains information on the following subjects:

Foldable front passenger seat 56
Adjusting front seats electrically 57
Memory function of the power seat 57
Memory function of the remote control key 58
Front seat heating 58
The driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the pedals can be fully
pressed to the floor with slightly bent legs.
The seat backrest on the driver's seat should be adjusted in such a way that the
upper point of the steering wheel can be easily reached with slightly bent arms.
Correct adjustment of the seats is particularly important for:
› safely and quickly reaching the controls;
› a relaxed, fatigue-free body position;
› achieving the maximum protection offered by the seat belts and the airbag
system. WARNING
■ Only adjust the driver's seat when the vehicle is stationary - risk of accident!
■ Caution when adjusting the seat! You may suffer injuries or bruises as a re-
sult of adjusting the seat without paying proper attention. ■ As the electric front seats can also be adjusted when the ignition is switch-
ed off (even when the ignition key is withdrawn), never leave children unat-
tended in the car. ■ The seat backrests must not be angled too far back when driving otherwise
this will affect proper operation of the seat belts and of the airbag system -
risk of injury! ■ Never carry more people than the number of seats in the vehicle. WARNING (Continued)
■ Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 143, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
■ The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match
the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be
correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your
occupants.
■ Always keep your feet in the footwell when the car is being driven - never
place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces
of the seats. This is particularly important for the front seat passenger. You
will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply the
brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is deployed, you may suffer
fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated position!
■ It is important for the driver and front passenger to maintain a distance of at
least 25 cm from the steering wheel or dash panel. Not maintaining this mini-
mum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly
protect you - hazard!
■ Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as they may get caught be-
hind the pedals when driving or applying the braking. You would then no lon-
ger be able to operate the clutch, brake or accelerate.
■ Do not transport any objects on the front passenger seat except objects
(e.g. child safety seat) provided for this purpose - risk of accident! Note
■ After a certain time, play can develop within the adjustment mechanism of the
backrest angle. ■ For safety reasons, it is not possible to store the seated position in the seat
memory and remote control key memory if the inclination angle of the seat back-
rest is more than 102° in relation to the seat cushion.
■ When saving the driver's seat and exterior mirror settings, any previous settings
will be deleted. Ð
