13Unit operation

ŠKODA permits the operation of telephones and two-way radio systems with a
professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission power of up to 10 watts.
Please ask at a specialist workshop about installing and operating telephones and two-way radio systems that have a transmission power of more than 10 W.
Operating telephones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the function- ality 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.
Note
■
We recommend that the installation of telephones and two-way radio systems
in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
The telephone functions are dependent on the mobile network operators, as
well as the telephone being used. Further information is available from the mo-
bile network operator or to refer to the manual of the telephone.
■
In signal-free areas reception can be disturbed or a call may be disconnected.
■
Most modern electronic equipment is shielded from RF signals. In exceptional
cases, electronic equipment may not be shielded against the RF signals and tele-
phone service may be disrupted.
