Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
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 instal- ling and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems with a transmis-
sion power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the
functionality 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
responsible for the operation of your vehicle. Use the telephone system on-
ly 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
observed.
■
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle with-
out an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incor-
rectly, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the
vehicle.
WARNING (Continued)■ 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
systems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is restric-
ted to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obsta-
cles between 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 establishing a connection with the hands-free-system or transferring
data.

responsible for the operation of your vehicle. Only use the system such that
you are in full control of your vehicle in every traffic situation – risk of acci-
dent!■
The multifunction device must always slot securely into the cradle or be
safely stored in the vehicle.
■
Unsecured or incorrectly secured multifunction devices may be thrown
through the interior of the vehicle and cause injuries in a sudden driving or
braking manoeuvre or accident.
■
Adjust the volume to ensure that acoustic signals from outside, e.g. sirens
from vehicles which have the right of way, such as police, ambulance and
fire brigade vehicles, can be heard at all time.
■
High volumes can cause hearing damage.
CAUTION
■ Improper tilt settings can damage both the multifunction device and the cra-
dle.■
Always take the multifunction device with you when leaving the vehicle to
protect it from extreme temperatures and strong sunlight. Extreme ambient
temperatures can impair the functioning of the multifunction device and may
damage the device.
■
Moisture can damage the electrical contacts in the dash panel for the porta-
ble multifunction device.
■
Never use water when cleaning the navigation unit cradle. Always use a dry
cloth instead.
■
Install/remove the multifunction device cradle without the multifunction de-
vice in it.
■
Do not install/remove the multifunction device until the cradle for the multi-
function device has been installed into the dash panel.
74Using the system
NoteThe 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
between the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mo-
bile phone is e.g. in a jacket pocket, this can lead to difficulties when establish-
ing the Bluetooth ®
connection with the hands-free system or the data trans-
fer.75Communication and multimedia
