Sorry if this is a really silly question, but couldn't see any obvious answer anywhere!

 

I'm soon to take delivery of a new Skoda Octavia Estate 1.5 eTEC SE L, which has the keyless entry and start function. Having never had a keyless start car before I wondered, how does one cycle through the various ignition stages as with a normal key ignition? For example, if the car engine is off but I need to put the window down, how does that work?

 

The user manuals etc just seem to refer to starting and stopping the engine, so I was a bit confused!

I don't have an Octavia but would presume it's exactly the same as all the other VAG cars:- One press of the button wakes the electrical system up and allows such as the windows etc to work. A press when you also have your foot on the brake (dsg) or clutch (manual) will start the car.

You'll soon get to grips with everything. 👍
