Mobile device management  
Cybernetic security  
Your vehicle contains components that are used to  
exchange information and data between the vehicle  
and the connected mobile devices or the Internet.  
These components have security mechanisms that  
minimise the risk of unauthorised access to the vehi-  
cle systems.  
Connected / Previously connected devices  
Available devices  
A
B
Regular software updates help reduce the risk of un-  
authorised access to vehicle systems and vehicle  
functions. The following guidelines must therefore  
be observed:  
The device enables a connection via the Blue-  
tooth®“hands-free profile”  
The device enables a connection via the Blue-  
tooth® audio profile  
Remove the device from the list previously con-  
nected devices  
The device enables a SmartLink connection to  
be made via Android Auto  
Use only media carriers, Bluetooth® devices, and  
mobile devices that contain no harmful data or  
malware.  
Regularly update the software provided by ŠKODA  
AUTO.  
The device enables a SmartLink connection to  
be made via Apple CarPlay  
The device enables a SmartLink connection to  
be made via MirrorLink  
We recommend having the system software and  
components updated by a specialist company.  
WARNING  
Risk of an accident!  
Malware in the vehicle can influence and deactivate  
certain vehicle functions, or take over the controls of  
these where applicable.  
If the connection icon is green, the connection is  
active.  
If the vehicle reacts in an unusual way, immediately  
reduce speed or stop the vehicle.  
Limitations of mobile devices and applications  
Seek the help of a specialist garage.  
Availability of features  
The availability of certain features depends on the  
type of mobile device, as well as that of the applica-  
tions installed.  
WARNING  
Malware in the vehicle may gain unauthorised access  
to the information and data of the vehicle, and on oc-  
casion, to connected mobile devices.  
Compatibility of mobile devices  
It is possible to check the ŠKODAweb pages to see if  
Infotainment is compatible with the selected mobile  
device being tested. This check is carried out by us-  
ing the following reference or by reading the QR

Bluetooth® compatibility of mobile devices  
Due to the large number of mobile devices, it is not  
possible to guarantee total Bluetooth® compatibility  
with Infotainment. Bluetooth® compatibility depends  
on the Bluetooth® version as well as the implementa-  
tion of Bluetooth® protocols by the manufacturer of  
the mobile device.  
Select the desired Bluetooth® profile.  
If two devices are connected to the Infotainment,  
select the device to be replaced.  
SmartLink connection  
Infotainment provides the ability to connect Smar-  
tLink to compatible mobile devices using the follow-  
ing connection types:  
Applications in mobile devices  
Mobile devices can be used to install applications  
that allow you to view additional information on the  
Infotainment screen, or to operate the Infotainment  
system.  
Android Auto  
Apple CarPlay  
MirrorLink  
Due to the variety of applications, as well as their on-  
going development, the available applications may  
not function on all mobile devices. ŠKODA AUTO as-  
sumes no liability for their proper functioning.  
Mobile devices can be connected to the Infotain-  
ment via USB cable or Wi-Fi, as long as the mobile  
device supports it.  
Connect the mobile device to the Infotainment via  
a USB cable or browse and connect to a wireless  
network.  
The scope of available applications and their func-  
tionality is dependent on the type of Infotainment, as  
well as the vehicle and country.
