CAUTION
To establish the connection, the date and time in the Infotainment system
must be set correctly. If the date and time setting is based on the GPS signal,
then problems may arise with establishing a connection when the GPS signal
reception is poor.
Note
During the connection process, information messages may be displayed on
the Infotainment screen, and in the phone display. These messages must be
observed and confirmed if necessary (e.g. release of data transfer, enabling the
import of contacts, release of text messages).
We recommend that you use extension cables from ŠKODA Original Acces-
sories.
With some connected external devices, is necessary for the connected ex-
ternal device to be "unlocked" for the entire duration of the connection to en-
sure trouble-free functioning of the SmartLink function.
