Switching on
›
Press the corresponding symbol button or
» Fig. 62 .
Pressing once switches the seat heating on at its maximum level.
With repeated pressing of the switch, the intensity of the heating is reduced
until it is switched off.
The level of the seat heating is indicated by the number of illuminated warning
lights in the switch.
1)
The vehicle must be locked and unlocked with the same key to save the seat and exterior mirror position
to the key.
80Using the system
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, the
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 adap-
ted to suit your particular needs.
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 re-
spective number of indicator lights come on.
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 Cli-
matronic 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 on-
ly 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
conditioning 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 dis- tribution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is
nevertheless 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 sensorB » Fig. 113 as this could impair the functioning of the Climatronic.■
If the windscreen mists up, press the symbol button
. Press the button
once the windscreen has demisted.
■
During operation of the Climatronic, an increase in engine idle speed can oc-
cur under certain circumstances in order to ensure adequate heating comfort.
■
For vehicles with factory-fitted radio the Climatronic information also ap-
pears on its display. This function can be switched off, see » Radio manual .
Efficient handling of the cooling system
Read and observe
and on page 104 first.
The air conditioning system compressor uses power from the engine when incooling mode, which will affect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or the doors of a vehicle for which the
interior has been strongly heated through the effect of direct sunlight in order
to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be on if the windows are open.
For the sake of the environment
Pollutant emissions are also lower when fuel is being saved » page 140.
malfunctions
Read and observe
and on page 104 first.
If the cooling system does not operate at outside temperatures higher than +5°C, there is a problem in the system. The reasons for this may be.
› One of the fuses has blown. Check the fuse and replace if necessa-
ry » page 214 .
› The cooling system has switched off automatically for a short time because
the coolant temperature of the engine is too hot » page 31.
If you are not able to resolve the operational problem yourself, or if the cooler
output has reduced, switch off the cooling system and seek assistance from a
specialist garage.

Universal telephone preinstallation (hands free)
Introduction
This chapter applies only to vehicles with universal phone installation kit GSM II or GSM III.
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Operating the phone on the multifunction steering wheel
114
Symbols in the MAXI DOT display
115
Phone Phonebook
116WARNING■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully
responsible for the operation of your vehicle. Only use the hands-free sys-
tem 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
observed.
CAUTION
■ In areas with no signal and sometimes in tunnels, garages or subways tele-
phone conversations can be interrupted and telephone connections cannot be
established - even in an emergency!■
We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio
systems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.
Note■ Not all mobile phones that enable Bluetooth ®
communication are compatible
with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM II or GSM III. Ask a ŠKODA
partner or visit the ŠKODA website www.infotainment.skoda-auto.com to find
out whether your phone is compatible with universal telephone installation kit
GSM II or GSM III.■
The range of the telephone connection to the device using the Bluetooth ®
profile is limited to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local fac-
tors, e.g. obstacles between the devices and mutual interferences with other
devices. If your telephone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to
difficulties when establishing a connection with the device or transferring da-
ta.
■
The functionality of the telephone is dependent on the telephone service op-
erator and the telephone being used. Further information is available from the
telephone service operator or can be found in the telephone manual.
■
In some countries the connection via the Bluetooth ®
function, may be limi-
ted. Further information can be obtained from local authorities.
