Communication

Introductory information

For more information about controlling hands-free equipment, multimedia, Navi-
gation, etc. see » operating instructions for Infotainment.
ŠKODA permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems with
a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission power of
up to 10 watts.
Please refer to a ŠKODA Partner for information about the possibilities of instal-
ling and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems that have a trans-
mission power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the func-
tionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The reasons for this are as follows:
›
no external aerial;
›
external aerial incorrectly installed;
›
transmission power greater than 10 watts.
WARNING
Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
■
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle. Use the telephone system only to
such an extent that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.
The national regulations for using a mobile phone in a vehicle must be ob-
■
served.
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle without
■
an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incorrectly,
this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the vehicle.
Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed on
■
airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
Never leave a mobile phone on a seat, on the dash panel or in another area,
■
from which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an accident
or a collision – risk of injury.
In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth
■
tem must be switched off by a specialist garage.

Using the system

function for the hands-free sys-
CAUTION
Not all mobile phones that enable Bluetooth
■
with the universal telephone preinstallation. You can ask an authorised ŠKODA
Partner whether your telephone is compatible with the universal telephone pre-
installation.
®
The range of the Bluetooth connection to the hands-free system is restricted
■
to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obstacles be-
tween the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your mobile
phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties when estab-
lishing a connection with the hands-free-system or transferring data.
Note
We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio sys-
tems in a vehicle be carried out by a ŠKODA Partner.
