2013 SKODA YETI interior lights

NoteThe warning light in the button  lights after activation, even if not all of the
conditions for the function of the cooling system have been met. By lighting up of the indicator light in the button, the operational readiness of the cooling system
is signalled.
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
Fig. 95
Climatronic: Control elements
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn- ings
on page 91.
The Climatronic in automatic mode ensures the best-possible setting of the tem-
perature of the outflowing air, the blower stage and air distribution.
The system also takes sunlight into account, which eliminates the need to alterthe settings manually.
Individual functions can be adjusted by turning the knob or switching or pressing the respective button. When this function is switched on, the warning light illumi-
nates in the button.

If the blower speed is reduced to a minimum, Climatronic is switched off. The set blower speed is displayed above the symbol button 
when the respec-
tive number of indicator lights come on.
After the cooling system is switched off, only the ventilation function remains ac-tive whereby the minimum temperature that can be reached is the outside tem-
perature.
Setting temperature
The interior temperature for the left and right side can be set separately or to-
gether.

The interior temperature can be set between +18 °C and +26 ℃. The interior tem-
perature is regulated automatically within this range.
If a temperature lower than +18 °C is selected, a blue symbol lights up at the start
of the numerical scale.
If a temperature higher than +26 °C is selected, a red symbol lights up at the start
of the numerical scale.
At both end positions, Climatronic runs at maximum cooling/heating output and
the temperature is automatically not regulated.
Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with the
interior temperature. However, the blower stages can be manually adapted to
suit your particular needs.
Automatic mode
The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature and to
demist the windows in the interior of the car.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button 
lights up, the Clima-
tronic operates in “HIGH”-mode. The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of the
Climatronic.
Upon pressing the 
button again, the Climatronic switches to “LOW”-mode
and the indicator light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses only in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise level,
this is more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air condition-
ing system is reduced particularly if the vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing the button 
again, it is changed to “HIGH”-mode.
Automatic mode is switched off by pressing one of the buttons for the air distri- bution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is never-
theless regulated.WARNING■ Do not switch off the Climatronic system for longer than necessary.■Switch on the Climatronic system as soon as the windows mist up.Note■Do not stick anything onto or cover the interior temperature sensor B » Fig. 95
as this could impair the functioning of the Climatronic.■
On vehicles equipped with a factory-fitted radio or radio navigation system, the
Climatronic information is also shown on their displays. This function can be
switched off, see » operating instructions for the radio or navigation system .
Note
If the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button . Press the button 
once the windscreen has demisted.
Using the air conditioning system economically
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 91.
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when in
cooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the inte-rior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order to al-
low the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be on if the windows are open.
If the desired interior temperature can be achieved without switching the cooling
system on, then we do not recommend turning this on.
For the sake of the environment
Pollutant emissions are also reduced when fuel is saved » page 130, Economical
driving and environmental sustainability .

The transmitter and the battery are housed in the housing of the remote control. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle.
The effective range of the radio remote control when the battery is charged is up
to 600 m. Obstacles between the remote control and the vehicle, bad weather
conditions and a weakening battery can reduce the range significantly.
To switch the auxiliary heating (aux. heating) on or off, hold the remote control
vertical, with the aerial
A
» Fig. 97 pointing upwards. The antenna must not be
covered with the fingers or the palm of the hand during this process.
The auxiliary heating can only be switched on/off safely using the radio remotecontrol, if the distance between the radio remote control and the vehicle is at
least 2 m.

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.■
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.

press the brake pedal down with more force.
Operating conditions of the system
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 149.
The START-STOP system is very complex. Some of the procedures are hard to check without servicing.
No engine shut down is carried out
Before each STOP phase, the system checks whether certain conditions have
been met. No engine shut down takes place in the following situations.
› The engine has not reached the minimum temperature for START STOP mode.
› The temperature inside the vehicle has not reached the desired temperature
set in the air-conditioning system/heating.
› The external temperature is very low/high.
› The intensive windscreen heater (Climatronic) or windscreen heater/ventilation
is switched on with the maximum air temperature setting (manual air condition-
ing system).
› The parking aid/Park Assist is switched on.
› The charge state of the vehicle battery is too low.
› The stationary vehicle is on a steep slope or a steep downhill section.
› The idling speed is too high.
› The steering angle is too large (manoeuvring).
› The selector lever position
R is selected (e.g. when parking).
The warning symbol  appears in the instrument cluster display.
The automatic start procedure takes place again
During the STOP phase, the engine fires up without any active driver intervention, e.g. in the following situations.
› The vehicle begins to roll, e.g. on a slope.
› The difference between the temperature setting of the air-conditioning sys-
tem/heating and the temperature of the interior is too large.
› The intensive windscreen heater (Climatronic) or windscreen heater/ventilation
is switched on with the maximum air temperature setting (manual air condition-
ing system).
› The brake pedal was pressed several times (the pressure in the braking system
is too low).
› The charge state of the vehicle battery is too low.
› The current consumption is too high.
