Conditions for the functioning of auxiliary heating (Aux. heating and ventilation),
hereinafter referred to only as auxiliary heating (Aux. heating).
The charge state of the vehicle battery is sufficient.
The fuel supply is adequate (the warning icon 
is not lit in the display of the
instrument cluster).
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by
switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).
Auxiliary heating (aux. heating)
The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) can be used when stationary, when the en- gine is switched off to preheat the vehicle and while driving (e.g. during the heat-
ing phase of the engine).
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the air-con-
ditioning system or Climatronic.
The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) also warms up the engine. This is not valid for
vehicles with the 3.6 l/191 kW FSI engine.
The auxiliary heating (parking heating) warms up the coolant by combusting fuel
from the vehicle tank. The coolant heats air flowing into the passenger compart-
ment (as long as the blower fan speed
B
» Fig. 107 on page 100 or » Fig. 108 on
page 103 is not set to zero).
WARNING■ The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) must never be operated in closed rooms
(e.g. garages) – risk of poisoning!■
The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) must not be allowed to run during refu-
elling – risk of fire.
■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) is located on the un-
derside of the vehicle. Therefore, if you wish to operate the auxiliary heating
(aux. heating), do not park the vehicle in such a way that the exhaust gases
can come into contact with highly flammable materials (e.g. dry grass) or easily
inflammable substances (e.g. spilt fuel) – risk of fire.
CAUTION
■ Running auxiliary heating (aux. heating) consumes fuel from the vehicle tank
and automatically controls the filling level. If only a low quantity of fuel is present in the fuel tank, the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) switches off.■
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating (aux. heating), which is located on the
underside of the vehicle, must not be clogged and the exhaust flow must not be blocked.
■
If the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) is running, the vehicle battery discharges.
If the auxiliary heating and ventilation has been operated several times over a
longer period, the vehicle must be driven a few kilometres in order to recharge
the vehicle battery.
Note
■ The auxiliary heating (aux. heating) switches on the blower B » Fig. 107 on
page 100 or » Fig. 108 on page 103 only if it has achieved a coolant temperature
of approx. 50 °C.■
At low outside temperatures, this can result in a formation of water vapour in
the area of the engine compartment. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.
■
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or leaves)
to ensure that the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) operates properly.
■
So that warm air can flow into the vehicle interior after switching on the auxili-
ary heating, you must maintain the comfort temperature normally selected by
you, leave the fan switched on and leave the air outlet vents in an open position.
It is recommended to put the air flow in the position  or .

Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
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 reasons for this are as follows: › no external aerial;
› external aerial incorrectly installed;
› transmission power greater than 10 watts.
WARNING■
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 any area from
where it becomes a projectile during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an acci-
dent or a collision — risk of injury.
■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.

Universal telephone preinstallation (hands free)
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
The universal telephone preinstallation (“hands-free system”) includes a conven-
ience mode for the mobile phone via voice control, the multifunction steering
wheel, the radio or navigation system.
WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle. Only use the hands-free system to the extent that you are in full control of your vehicle in any traffic situation.■
The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
served. 
110Using the system

Note■We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist firm.■
Not all mobile phones that enable Bluetooth ®
communication are compatible
with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM II or GSM III. Ask a ŠKODA Part-
ner whether your phone is compatible with the universal telephone preparation
GSM II or GSM III.
■
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.
