Unlocking and locking48
Remote control*
Description
You can use the remote control:
• to unlock and lock the car,
• unlock the tailgate.
The transmitter with the battery is housed in the handle of the master key.
The receiver is located in the interior of the car. The operating range of the
remote control is 10 metres but this range can be reduced if the batteries
are weak.
The master 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 a new
unit installed, it is then necessary for a Škoda Service Partner to initialise
the system. Only after this is it possible to again use the remote control.
Note
• The remote control is automatically deactivated when the ignition is
switched on.
• The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by
interference 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. We
recommend having the battery replaced by a Škoda Service Partner.
