First and foremost, pay attention to the safety instructions » page 4 , Impor-
tant notes .
The device allows analogue radio reception of FM and AM frequency ranges as
well as DAB digital radio reception.
The radio reception DAB allows multiple stations to be transmitted in a single
frequency in the form of a so-called ensemble. It also allows for the transmis-
sion of additional data and information (e.g. messages, sport, weather, warn-
ings, etc.).
CAUTION
■ Car parks, tunnels, tall buildings or mountains can disrupt the radio signal
even causing it to fail completely.■
For vehicles with window antennas; if the windows are covered in foil or with
metallic film stickers, reception interference may be experienced.
■
In countries where the RDS function is not supported sufficiently, we recom-
mend turning off the RDS and AF functions. Otherwise, these settings can af-
fect the functionality of the radio.

The Telephone menu is available when the following conditions are met.
The ignition is switched on.
The Bluetooth ®
function on the device is switched on.
After the device is switched on, the system attempts to connect to the most recently connected phone 1)
.
If a telephone is connected to the device and the device is turned off, the con-
nection is not dropped to the phone. The connection is lost after switching off
the ignition (for vehicles with the system KESSY after switching off the ignition
and opening the driver's door).
WARNING■ The national legal 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 with an incorrectly installed external aerial, 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.
WARNING (Continued)■ Never leave a mobile phone on a seat in the airbag deployment area, 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. There
are multimedia storage compartments with lid holder to safely store
these, » vehicle Owner's Manual , chapter Practical equipment.■
Before transport of the vehicle by air, the Bluetooth ®
function must be
switched off by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and possibly in tunnels, garages and subways a tele-
phone conversation can be interrupted and no telephone connection can be
established - not even in an emergency!■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is limited
to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local conditions, e.g. obsta-
cles between the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your
phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when es-
tablishing a connection with the device or transferring data.
Introductory information
Read and observe
and on page 31 first.
The device allows for a wireless connection to the phone. Your phone can be
operated from this unit.
ŠKODA permits the operation of phones 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 phones and
two-way radio systems that have a transmission power of more than 10 W.
Operating phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the functional-
ity of the electronic systems in your vehicle. 
1)
With some phones, it is necessary to set the connection to the device as "authorised" in order for the
automatic connection to be successful. If this is not set, the system will prompt you for a confirmation
each time you attempt to connect to the phone.

PhoneboxFig. 22
Front centre console: Phonebox
Read and observe
and on page 31 first.
At the bottom of the storage compartment in the front center console is an in-
duction plate connected to a GSM roof antenna roof - the Phonebox.
Function
When the phone is inserted into the Phonebox, the phone signal increases in
strength by about 20%. This reduces the level of phone battery discharge and
the electromagnetic radiation inside the vehicle.
Inserting the phone into the Phonebox
›
Press on the edge of the lid
A
in the direction of the arrow, and open the
storage compartment.
›
Place the phone in the storage compartment
B
with its back on the induc-
tion panel.
›
Pull on the edge of the lid
A
in the opposite direction from the arrow, and
close the storage compartment » .
The Phonebox cannot be used as an alternative to connecting the phone with
the device.
WARNINGFor safety reasons, the storage compartment must always be closed when
driving.CAUTION■ Protective cases or cases around the phone placed in the storage compart-
ment may interfere with the phone signal strength.■
Metallic objects such as coins or keys under the phone can affect the phone
signal strength.
