General points

SmartGate system
♦ From CW 06/2017 (Facelift), the SmartGate system functions
are integrated into the Control unit 1 for information electronics
- J794- together with other functions (see ⇒ Owner's Manual
Octavia III , Infotainment, SmartLink +).
♦ The SmartGate system offers the possibility to access the
driving data via the wireless WLAN connection.
♦ This is one-way communication of the connected communi‐
cations of the customer's equipment (e.g., mobile phone, tab‐
let, laptop) with the control unit for the SmartGate system.
♦ The driving data received can then be processed (depending
on the application used and installed on the communications
equipment).
♦ The WLAN range is limited to the interior of the vehicle.
♦ One part of the system is the control unit for information elec‐
tronics 2 - J829- located under the driver's seat.
♦ For a detailed description of the functions, operations and
connection see the ⇒ Owner's Manual Octavia III .
Caution
Correct communication within the scope of the SmartGate sys‐
tem relies on the customer's communications equipment (e.g.,
mobile phone/tablet) functioning correctly, and on the software
applications being installed.
Not every cell phone/tablet is compatible within the scope of
the SmartGate system.
For details of mobile phone/tablet compatibility, and the avail‐
able applications, visit the ŠKODA website (www.skoda-
