ŠKOSA 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.  
Note  
The loudspeakers in the vehicle are matched to a power output of the radio  
and radio navigation system of 4x 20 W.  
It is essential that you inform a specialist garage about the possibilites to assem-  
ble and operate mobile phones and two-way radio sets which have a power out-  
put of more than 10 W. They will inform you which technical possibilities exist for  
retrofitting mobile phones.  
For the equipment sound system, the loudspeakers are matched to a power  
output of the amplifier of 4x50°W + 6x25 W.  
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems  
When using a mobile phone inside the vehicle, which is not inserted into the  
phone adapter, and thus has no connection to the external aerial, the electromag-  
netic radiation can exceed the current limit value. If a suitable adapter is available

for your mobile phone, use your mobile phone exclusively in the adapter so that  
the radiation in the vehicle drops to a minimum. This also improves the quality of  
the connection.  
All communication between a telephone and the hands-free system of your vehi-  
cle can only be established with the help of the Bluetooth technology. The  
adapter serves only for charging the telephone and for transmitting the signal to  
the external aerial of the vehicle.  
®
Operation of mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with func-  
tioning of the electronic systems of your vehicle.  
To ensure an optimum signal transmission, always leave the telephone with the  
adapter in the telephone mount.  
The reasons for this may be:  
Furthermore the volume can be changed individually during the call at any time  
with the button for setting the radio or radio navigation system or with the but-  
tons on the multifunction steering wheel.

WARNING  
WARNING  
Concentrate fully at all times on your steering! As the driver you are fully re-  
sponsible for road safety. Use the telephone system only to such an extent, so  
that you are in full control of your vehicle at any time.  
If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in the vehicle  
without using an external aerial or an external aerial which has been incor-  
rectly installed, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field in  
the interior of the vehicle.  
Note  
Please concentrate fully at all times on your driving!  
Please refer to the following guidelines ⇒ꢀpage 133, Mobile phones and two-  
way radio systems.  
Should you have any questions, please contact an authorised ŠKODA Service  
You must not install two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts on  
the covers of the airbags or within the immediate deployment range of air-  
bags. This might result in injuries to the occupants in the event of an accident.  
Partner.  
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 ac-  
cident or a collision. In this case, the occupants of the vehicle might be injured.  
Phone Phonebook  
A phone phonebook is part of the mobile phone preinstallation with voice control.  
In the phone phonebook there are 2500 free memory locations available. Each  
contact can contain up to 4 numbers. This phone phonebook can be used in line  
with the mobile telephone.  
Note  
Observe the country-specific regulations for the use of mobile phones in vehicles.  
On vehicles fitted with the radio navigation system Columbus, a maximum of 1200  
telephone contacts are shown in the display of this appliance.  
Universal telephone preinstallation GSM II  
After the first connection of the telephone, the system begins to load the phone  
book from the phone and the SIM card into the memory of the control unit.  
Introduction  
Each time the telephone has established a new connection with the hands-free  
system, an update of the relevant phone book is performed. The updating can  
take a few minutes. During this time the phone book, which was stored after the  
last update was completed, is available. Newly stored telephone numbers are only  
shown after the updating has ended.  
The universal telephone preinstallation GSM II is a built-in “hands-free system”, it  
provides a voice operated convenience mode via the multifunction steering wheel  
or the radio navigation system.  
£
If the number of contacts loaded exceeds 2 500, the phone book is not complete.  
Communication 135  
If a telephone event (e.g. incoming or outgoing call, dialogue of the voice control)  
occurs during the updating procedure, the updating is interrupted. After the tele-  
phone event has ended, the updating starts anew.  
Up to four mobile phones can be paired to the hands-free system, whereby only  
one mobile phone can communicate with the hands-free system.  
Connection with an already paired mobile phone  
After switching on the ignition, the connection is automatically established for the  
already paired mobile phone . Check on the mobile unit if the automatic connec-

tion was established.  
In order to connect a mobile phone with the hands-free system, it is necessary to  
connect the telephone to the hands-free system. Detailed information on this is  
provided in the operating instructions of your mobile phone. The following steps  
must be carried out for the connection:  
Disconnecting the connection  
By withdrawing the ignition key.  
By disconnecting the device in the information display.  
By disconnecting the device in the mobile phone.  
®
Activate the Bluetooth in your telephone and the visibility of the mobile  
phone.  
Solving connection problems  
Switch on the ignition.  
If the system announces No paired phone found, check the operating state of the  
telephone.  
Select the menu Phone - Phone search in the information display and wait un-  
til the control unit has ended the search.  
Is the telephone switched on?  
Is the PIN code entered?  
Is Bluetooth active?  
Is the visibility of the mobile phone active?  
Was the telephone already paired with the hands-free system?  
Select your mobile phone in the menu of the units found.  
Confirm the PIN (as standard 1234).  
®
If the hands-free system announces (as standard Skoda UHV) on the display of  
the mobile phone, enter the PIN (as standard 1234) within 30 seconds and wait  
1)  
until the connection is established.  
After ending the connection, confirm in the information display that a new  
user profile was created.  
WARNING  
®
In the event of air transport, the Bluetooth function of the hands-free sys-  
tem must be switched off by a specialist garage!  
If no more free space is available for creating a new user profile, delete an existing  
user profile.  
Note  
If you have not managed to connect your mobile phone with the hands-free sys-  
tem within 3 minutes after switching on the ignition, switch the ignition off and  
then again on. The visibility of the hands-free system is established again for 3  
minutes. The visibility of the Bluetooth device is automatically switched off if the  
vehicle starts off or if the mobile phone connects to the device.  
®
Not valid for all mobile phones which enable a communication via Bluetooth .  
You can ask at an authorised ŠKODA Service Partner if your telephone is compati-  
ble with the universal telephone preinstallation GSM II.  
®
If a suitable adapter is available for your mobile phone, use your mobile phone  
exclusively in the adapter so that the radiation in the vehicle drops to a minimum.  
£
During the connecting procedure, no other mobile phone may be connected with  
the hands-free system.

®
Some mobile phones have a menu, in which the authorization for establishing a Bluetooth connec-  
tion is performed via the input of a code. If the input for the authorization is necessary, it must al-
