Mobile phones and radio equipment

Read and observe on page 69 first.
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 consult a ŠKODA Partner for information about the possibility of instal-
ling and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems with a transmis-
sion power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the
functionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The possible reasons for this are.
▶
No external aerial.
▶
External aerial incorrectly installed.
▶
transmission power greater than 10 watts.
WARNING
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle with-
■
out an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incor-
rectly, 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 any area
■
from where it becomes a projectile during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an
accident or a collision — risk of injury.
Notice
We recommend that you have mobile phones and two-way radio systems in-
stalled in your vehicle by a ŠKODA Partner.

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Overview of service intervals
Fixed service intervals QI1 - QI4
Variable service interval QI6
Digital Service Plan
The service interval display in the display of the instrument cluster will remind
you to carry out every service stipulated by the manufacturer at the right time
in order to prevent you from forgetting
The completion of services can be verified through the printed verification
from the digital service schedule and the respective receipts.
The specified service intervals are tailored to normal operating conditions.
In the case of aggravated operating conditions, it will be necessary to have
some service work carried out before the date of the next regular service or
between the specified service intervals. This applies mainly to the cleaning or
the replacement of the air filter insert in regions with heavy dust pollution as
well as checking and replacing the toothed belt, but also to vehicles with die-
sel particle filters, which can put greater strain on the engine oil.
The following is taken to mean aggravated operating conditions:
▶
Fuel with sulphur content.
▶
Frequent short trips.
▶
Longer periods of engine idling (e.g. taxis).
▶
Operation in areas with heavy dust pollution.
▶
Predominantly stop-and-go traffic as is e.g. often the case in city driving.
▶
Operation predominantly during winter.
You will be told at the specialist garage whether the operating conditions of
your vehicle may make it necessary for service work to be carried out between
the normal service intervals.
Different service charges may apply according to the particular scope of work
required, the vehicle type and specification, and your vehicle's condition.
