SmartLink
Introductory information
Introduction to the subject
Applies to Infotainment Columbus, Amundsen, Bolero.
Fig. 217
Information on SmartLink on the
ŠKODA websites
Read in the QR code » Fig. 217orenter the following address in the web brows-
er to open the website with information on the SmartLink communication sys-
tem.
http://go.skoda.eu/connectivity-smartlink
SmartLink offers the ability to display certified applications on an external de-
vice equipped with a USB device on the Infotainment screen and to operate
them.
SmartLink supports the following communication systems. ▶ Android Auto
▶ Apple CarPlay
▶ MirrorLink ®
Using the applications in the connected external device it is possible to use the navigation to make a call, to listen to music.
For reasons of safety, the operation of some applications while driving is not
possible or only limited.
Depending on model of the connected external device, some applications can
be started using the voice activation, via the Infotainment screen, using the
operating elements on Infotainment or using the buttons on the multi-func-
tion steering wheel.
The voice control of the connected external device can be activated by holding
the button  or holding the button
 on the multifunction steering wheel.
CAUTION
To establish the connection, it is necessary for the date and time in Infotain-
ment to be set correctly. If the date and time setting is based on the GPS sig-
nal, then problems may arise with establishing a connection with a poor GPS
signal reception.
Note
■ During the connection process, information messages may be displayed on
the Infotainment screen, and in the telephone display. These messages must
be observed and confirmed if necessary (e.g. Release of data transfer, enabling
the contact import, release of text messages).■
We recommend that you use extension cords from ŠKODA Original Accesso-
ries.
■
With some connected devices, it is necessary for the connected external de-
vice to be unlocked over the entire duration of the connection for trouble-free
functioning of the SmartLink function“”.

Advance warning
If the system detects a risk of collision, the warning light appears on the dis-
play 
» Fig. 300 and an audible signal is emitted.
The pre-warning display can occur in the following situations.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a moving obstacle at a driving speed range
of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 210 km/h.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a stationary obstacle at a driving speed
range of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 85 km/h.
With a warning the brake pedal must be pressed or the moving obstacle is to
be avoided!
Acute alert
If the driver does not react to the advance warning when in danger of a colli-
sion with a moving obstacle, the system briefly applies the brake automatically
via an active brake intervention to draw attention to the potential danger of a
collision again.
Automatic Braking
If the driver does not respond to acute warning, the system begins to auto-
matically brake the vehicle.
If an automatic brake intervention is triggered by the system, the pressure in
the brake system increases and the brake pedal cannot be operated with the
normal pedal stroke.
The automatic braking interventions can be cancelled by pressing the acceler-
ator pedal or by means of a steering intervention.
Brake assist
If the driver brakes inadequate with an impending collision, the system auto-
matically increases braking force.
The braking assistance only occurs as long as the brake pedal is being firmly
pressed down.Deactivation/activationFig. 301
