SmartGate constitutes a system, which transmit certain driving data (such as
fuel consumption, speed or similar) via Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi Direct.
The ŠKODA compatible communications device (e.g. phone, tablet, notebook)
offer the possibility to further transmit the received data.
More information on available applications, a list of compatible communication
devices and on SmartGate, can be found on the ŠKODA Internet pages.
Use the Service App application to update the SmartGate software. You can
fine information on this application on the ŠKODA Internet pages.
WARNING■ The national legal regulations for using mobile communication devices in
a vehicle must be observed.■
Do not fit the equipment or mounts to be connected onto airbag covers
or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a connected device in the deployment area of an airbag, on a
seat, on the dash panel or any another area, from which it can be thrown
during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an accident or a collision - there is a
risk of injury.
CAUTION
ŠKODA accepts no responsibility for any problems caused by incompatibility or
improper functioning of the communication equipment and the applications.Note■ The ŠKODA applications, support communications devices with the Android
operating system version 4.x.x and later and iOS 7.x.x and higher.■
With SmartGate, a device can be connected to two ongoing ŠKODA applica-
tions, possibly two devices, each with a respective current ŠKODA application.
■
If you have forgotten your password for the connection to SmartGate, Smart-
Gate must be reset to factory settings in a specialised workshop.
