Important information about this manual
This Owner's Manual is valid for the different versions of the Infotainment Co-
lumbus (hereinafter referred to only as device). The device may differ depend-
ing on the vehicle model, in which it is installed in both its appearance and in
the arrangement of the controls.
This Owner's Manual describes all possible device functions without identify-
ing them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent equip-
ment. Consequently, the device on this vehicle does not need to contain all of
the functions described in this Owner's Manual.
For example, if the vehicle is not factory equipped with the CANTON sound
system, the menu points CANTON Optimisation, CANTON Surround and CAN-
TON Equaliser are not shown.
The availability of some features described in this manual depends on the
type of external devices (for example, telephone, music player, etc.).
Information on the compatibility of external devices can be found on ŠKODAIn- ternet pages http://infotainment.skoda-auto.com .
The Images in these Operating Instructions are for illustrative purposes only.
The illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only in-
tended to provide general information.
ŠKODA AUTO a.s. pursues a policy of ongoing product and model development
with all vehicles. Changes in terms of supply scope are possible at any time
with regard to design, equipment and technology. The information listed in
these Operating Instructions corresponds to the information available at the
time of going to press.
It is therefore not possible for legal claims to be made based on the technical
data, illustrations and information contained in these Operating Instructions.

played in the device screen or in the display of the combined instrument 

The destination address can be entered by saying the city, the street and the
house number (if it is included in the navigation data) in one step.
You can say the house number and a further additional address in the form of
a number where necessary. The device then offers the number combination it
has found if the house number and the additional address, exists in the street
entered where appropriate.
It is necessary to spell city and street names if the entered destination is loca-
ted in a country that has no voice control available for the language. The de-
vice indicates this through a text message on the screen.
not recognizing a voice command

and on page 11 first.
If a voice command is not recognised, the device answers with Pardon? and
you can give a new command.
If the device does not recognise the second voice command, the help message
is provided again and you can give a new command.
If the device does not recognise the third voice command, the system plays
the Cancel. message and the dialogue is ended.
Correction of a voice command input

and on page 11 first.
A voice command can be corrected, modified or re-entered by pressing the
button  or the icon key
 on the multifunction steering wheel. However,
this is only possible if the symbol  is displayed on the screen.

Read and observe
and on page 11 first.
