Using the system Safety Driving Tips General Maintenance Breakdown assistance Technical Data
• Never drive with the boot lid slightly ajar or even fully opened
otherwise exhaust gases may get into the interior of the vehicle -
risk of poisoning!
Note
After closing the boot lid, it is automatically locked within 5 seconds
and the anti-theft alarm system* is activated. This applies only if the
vehicle was locked before closing the boot lid.
Remote control
Description
You can use the remote control:
• to unlock and lock the car,
• unlocking boot lid,
• opening and closing window.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the master key.
The receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the
remote control is 10 metres but this range can be reduced if the batteries
are waek.
The master key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking
and locking the car manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or a new
unit installed, it is then necessary for a Škoda Dealer to initialise the
system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
• The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is
switched on.
• The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by
interference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the
same frequency range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
• The battery must be replaced, ideally by the Škoda dealer, if the
central locking or anti-theft alarm system does react to the remote control
at less than 3 metres away.
