Mobility warranty and ŠKODA extendedwarranty.
Mobility warranty
Mobility warranty provides a sense of security when travelling in your vehicle.
Should your car break down when you're on the move one day as a result of an
unexpected fault, you will be eligible for services to ensure your continued mobili-
ty as part of the mobility warranty, which includes the following: Breakdown serv- ice at the breakdown location and towing off to the ŠKODA service partner, tech-
nical assistance by phone or on-site operation.
If your vehicle is not repaired on the same day, the ŠKODA service partner may
provide further services as required, such as replacement transportation (bus,
train, etc.), a courtesy vehicle, etc.
You can obtain more information regarding terms and conditions for the provision
of mobility warranty for your vehicle from your ŠKODA partner. Here you will also
be given detailed terms and conditions for the mobility warranty with respect to
your vehicle. In the event that there is no mobility warranty coverage available for
your vehicle, you should check with any ŠKODA service partner about the possibil-
ity of a subsequent agreement.
Note
The mobility guarantee is only available for some countries.
Optional ŠKODA extended warranty
If you received an extended ŠKODA warranty when purchasing your new car, the
two-year ŠKODA warranty for damages to your ŠKODA vehicle will be extended
by the time you chose or until the chosen mileage limit has been reached, which-
ever occurs first.
The previously mentioned paint warranty and the warranty against rust perfora-
tion stay unaffected by the extended warranty.
Detailed conditions for the extended warranty are included in the extended war- ranty terms and conditions, which your ŠKODA partner will have given to you
upon purchasing your new vehicle.
NoteThe mobility guarantee and optional ŠKODA extended warranty are only available
for some countries.

Vehicle key
Fig. 8
Key: without/with remote control
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 22.
Two keys are provided with the vehicle » Fig. 8.
Keys without remote control
Keys with remote control (remote control keys)
WARNING■ Always withdraw the key whenever you leave the vehicle – even if it is only
for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle.
The children might otherwise start the engine or operate electrical equipment
(e.g. power windows) – risk of injury!■
Do not withdraw the ignition key from the ignition lock until the vehicle has
come to a stop. The steering lock might otherwise engage unintentionally –
risk of accident!
CAUTION
■ Each key contains electronic components; therefore it must be protected
against moisture and severe shocks.■
Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean. Impurities (textile fibres, dust,
etc.) have a negative effect on the functionality of the locking cylinder and igni-
tion lock.
■
The function of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interference
from transmitters located near the vehicle that operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phones, television transmitters).
■
The battery must be replaced if the central locking does react to the remote
control at less than around 3 metres away » page 23.
Note
If you lose a key, please contact a specialist garage, who will be able to provide
you with a new one.

With the remote control key, the vehicle can be locked or unlocked and the boot
lid unlocked.
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, thesystem must be initialised by a specialist garage. Only then can the remote con-
trol 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).

64
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 63.
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 consult a ŠKODA Partner for information about the possibility of installing
and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems with 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 possible reasons for this are. › 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 the operation of your vehicle. 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.
WARNING (Continued)■ 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.
Note
■ We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
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.
