Safe Securing - Skoda Yeti Owner's Manual

34 Locking and Unlocking

Safe securing

The central locking system is equipped with a safe securing system. Locking the
vehicle from the outside causes the door locks to be automatically blocked. The
warning light flashes for around 2 seconds in quick succession, afterwards it be-
gins to flash evenly at longer intervals. It is not possible to open the doors with
the door handle either from the inside or from the outside. This acts as an effec-
tive deterrent for attempts to break into your vehicle.
You can deactivate the safe securing system by locking twice within 2 seconds.
If the safe securing system is not operating, the warning light in the driver door
flashes for about 2 seconds fast, goes out and starts to flash evenly at longer in-
tervals after about 30°seconds.
The safe securing system is again activated the next time the vehicle is unlocked
and locked again.
If the vehicle is locked and the safe securing system is deactivated, you can open
the vehicle from the inside by pulling on the door opening lever. The door is un-
locked and opened at the same time.
WARNING
If the vehicle is locked from the outside and the safe securing system is acti-
vated, there must not be any person and animals in the vehicle as it is then
not possible to open either a door or a window from the inside. The locked
doors make it more difficult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergen-
cy - hazard!

ing system when locking the vehicle. The interior monitor is however not activa-
