Notes on functional restrictions and update requirements
If the vehicle is not locked within ten minutes after pressing the installation button, the update will not be completed.
Locking/unlocking the vehicle using KESSY is disabled. The (central) vehicle remote control remains functional throughout the process.
SAFE locking is not activated (the doors can still be opened from inside).
The convenience opening function is disabled (the central locking can be unlocked, but the windows remain closed).
The Coming/Leaving Home function is not activated (all exterior lighting is switched off).
The alarm is disabled, although the LED on the doors continues to flash.
If charging is currently active, the update cannot be installed.
While the update is running, charging the vehicle cannot be activated.
If the vehicle is connected to a wallbox or public charging station, charging may not resume after the update has been completed.
After the Over-the-Air update
Locking/unlocking the vehicle using KESSY is disabled. The (central) vehicle remote control must be used to unlock the vehicle for the first time.
Before the first start, a bulb-failure warning indicator may illuminate. This warning is caused by the initial system initialization and does not affect the functionality of the vehicle’s lighting. The warning will disappear once the vehicle is switched to the drive-ready “Ready” state. If it does not, please contact your Škoda service partner.
If you experience any problems with the update, please contact your Škoda service partner.
