The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the remote control
key. The receiver is located in the interior of the vehicle. The operating range of
the remote control key is approx. 30 m. But this range of the remote control can
be reduced if the batteries are weak.
The key has a fold-open key bit which can be used for unlocking and locking the
car manually and also for starting the engine.
If a lost key is replaced or if the receiver unit has been repaired or replaced, the
system must be initialised by a ŠKODA Service Partner. Only then can the remote
control key be used again.
Note
The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is switched
■
on.
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by interfer-
■
ence from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same frequency
range (e.g. mobile phone, TV transmitter).
The battery must be replaced if the central locking or anti-theft alarm system
■
does react to the remote control at less than 3 metres away
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
■
key.

Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
Ð
locked. If the vehicle is unlocked using button
or the boot lid are opened within the next 30 seconds, the vehicle is automatical-
ly locked again and the safe securing system or anti-theft alarm system is reacti-
vated. This function is intended to prevent the car being unlocked unintentional-
ly.
In addition, when the car is unlocked, the electrically adjustable seats and exteri-
or mirrors move into the position assigned to this key. The stored setting of driver
seat and exterior mirrors is retrieved.
