Heating and air conditioning system Heating and air conditioning system Introductory information The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature. If the cooling system is switched on, the temperature and air humidity drops in the vehicle. The well-being of the occupants of the car is enhanced as a result of this particularly at high outside temperatures and a high air humidity.

WARNING (Continued) Starting-off and Driving Only pull the ignition key from the ignition lock when the vehicle has come to a complete stop (by applying the handbrake). Otherwise the steering wheel could block – risk of accident! ■ When leaving the vehicle, the ignition must always be removed. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle.
Note The engine can only be started with a genuine ŠKODA key with the matching code. ■ The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time after starting the cold engine. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem. ■ After switching off the ignition, the radiator fan can intermittently continue to operate for approx. 10 minutes. ■ If the engine does not start up after a second attempt, the fuse for the fuel pump may have a fault.
If the engine does not start within 10 seconds, abort the start-up process and turn the key to position 1 . Repeat the start-up process after approx. half a minute. Ignition lock Fig. 63 Positions of the vehicle key in the ignition lock Release the handbrake before starting off.

WARNING (Continued) If a front spoiler, full wheel trim, etc. is mounted retrospectively, it must be ensured that the air supply to the front wheel brakes is not reduced. Otherwise, the functionality of the brake system could be impaired – risk of accident! ■ Please note that the handbrake must be fully released.
Faults in the brake surface If it is found that the braking distance has suddenly become longer and that the brake pedal can be depressed further, the brake system may be faulty. Visit a ŠKODA specialist garage immediately and adjust your style of driving appropriately as you will not know how great the damage is. The handbrake warning is activated if the vehicle is driven at a speed of more than 6 km/h for more than 3 seconds.
Uphill start assist The uphill start assist makes it easier to start off on steep hills. The system holds the brake pressure produced by the activation of the brake pedal for approx. 2 seconds after the brake pedal is released. The driver can therefore move his foot from the brake pedal to the accelerator pedal and start off on the slope, without having to actuate the handbrake. The brake pressure drops gradually the more you operate the accelerator pedal.
Range of sensors The clearance warning begins at a distance of about 150 cm from the obstacle (area A » Fig. 66). The interval between the warning signals becomes shorter as the clearance is reduced. Note If not in the process of changing gear, do not leave your hand on the gearshift lever while driving. The pressure from the hand can cause the gearshift mechanism to wear excessively. Ð A continuous tone sounds from a distance of approx. 30 cm (area B ) – danger area.
Note Visual parking system Fig. 67 Screen display of the visual parking system ■ The visual parking system is shown in the screen of the multifunction device Move & Fun within a few seconds of shifting into reverse gear. ■ More information about the mobile multifunction device Move & Fun can be found in the digital operating manual in the device » page 72, Multifunction device Move & Fun.
CAUTION Changing a stored speed Always depress the clutch pedal if switching to the neutral position (vehicle with a manual gearbox) when the cruise control system is switched on! Otherwise the engine can rev up unintentionally. ■ The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at which it travels. Therefore, shift to a lower gear in good time or slow the vehicle down by applying the foot brake.
Briefly press the rocker button B into the position RES to resume the stored speed after the clutch or brake pedal is released. Ð Switching the START-STOP system on and off The START/STOP system can be switched on/off by pressing the button » Fig. 69. When start-stop mode is deactivated, the warning light in the button lights up. Switching off the cruise control system completely ä If the vehicle is in the stop phase when manually switching off the system, the engine starts immediately.
WARNING The brake servo unit and power steering only operate if the engine is running. ■ Never let the vehicle roll with the engine switched off. ■ CAUTION If the START-STOP system is used at very high outside temperatures over a very long period of time, the vehicle battery can be damaged. Note ■ Changes to the outdoor temperature can have an effect on the internal temperature of the vehicle battery even after several hours.
WARNING (Continued) The City Safe Drive system can carry out unexpected braking interventions in complex driving situations, e.g. when vehicles scrape past each other. ■ Taking the City Safe Drive system into account in one's own driving behaviour can lead to accidents and serious injuries. The City Safe Drive system is not a substitute for the driver's attention. ■ Always adapt your speed and safety distance to the vehicle ahead to the visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
› When objects are extending into the area above the bonnet, e.g. when a rood Fig. 73 Other vehicles changing lanes load sticks out far ahead. › When the windscreen is damaged in the region of the laser sensor. Ð Laser sensor ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 66. Possible impairment of the laser sensor If the functioning of the laser sensor is impaired by e.g. heavy rain, snow or slush, the City Safe Drivesystem will temporarily shut down.
Introductory information Automatic gearbox ä Automatic gearbox AGB ä Shifting up and down through the gears is performed automatically. However, the gearbox can also be switched into Tiptronic mode M. This mode makes it possible for you to also shift gears manually » page 70.

WARNING Seat belts Seat belts ä Introduction Fig. 79 Driver wearing seat belt This chapter contains information on the following subjects: The physical principle of a frontal collision Fastening and unfastening seat belts Belt tensioners 79 80 80 Seat belts that are fastened correctly offer good protection in the event of an accident. They reduce the risk of an injury and increase the chance of survival in the event of a major accident.
The speed of the vehicle is, nevertheless, the most important factor. Doubling the speed of the vehicle from 25 km/h up to 50 km/hour increases the kinetic energy four times. WARNING (Continued) Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis. If any damage to the seat belts, seat belt connections, inertia reel or the lock is detected, the relevant seat belt must be replaced by a specialist garage.
Fastening and unfastening seat belts It is important that the belt webbing is properly routed to ensure seat belts offer the maximum protection. The shoulder part of the seat belt must never run across the neck but must roughly run over the middle of the shoulder and fit snugly against the chest. The lap part of the belt must run across the pelvis, must not be positioned across the stomach and must always fit snugly » Fig. 82 – . Expectant women must also always wear a seat belt.
Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of minor frontal collisions, side and rear-end collisions, in the case of a rollover and also not in accidents in which no major forces are produced from the front. WARNING Any work on the belt tensioner system including removal and installation of system components because of other repair work, must only be carried out by a specialist garage. ■ The protective function of the system is only adequate for a single accident.
Airbag system Description of the airbag system Introductory information The operational readiness of the airbag system is monitored electronically. The airbag warning light comes on for a few seconds each time the ignition is switched on » page 18. The airbags inflate in fractions of a second and at a high speed to offer additional protection in the event of an accident.
Deployment factors It is not possible to generally determine which deployment conditions apply to the airbag system in every situation. An important role is played by factors such as the type of object that the vehicle hits (hard, soft), the impact angle, vehicle speed, etc. Front airbags A decisive factor for the deployment of the airbags is the deceleration which occurs. The control unit analyses the nature of the collision and activates the relevant restraint system.
The airbag allows the gas to flow out of the inflated airbag in a controlled manner (depending on the load of the particular car occupant) in order to cushion head and chest areas. The airbag then deflates subsequently to such an extent, after an accident, to again provide a clear view forward. Side airbags Head-Thorax WARNING For the driver and front passenger, it is important to maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel or dashboard A » Fig. 84.
WARNING (Continued) If children adopt an incorrect seated position when travelling, they may be exposed to an increased risk of injury in the event of an accident. This can result in serious injuries » page 87, Child seat. ■ The airbag control unit operates with pressure sensors located in the front doors. For this reason no adjustments must be carried out to the doors and door panels (e.g. additional installation of loudspeakers).
WARNING Key switch for the front seat passenger airbag The driver is responsible for whether the airbag is switched on or switched off. ■ Only switch off the airbag when the ignition is switched off!

Driving Tips Driving and the Environment The first 1 500 km New engine The engine has to be run in during the first 1 500 kilometres. Up to 1 000 kilometres › Do not drive faster than 3/4 of the maximum speed of the gear in use, i.e. 3/4 of the maximum permissible engine speed. › No full throttle. › Avoid high engine speeds. › Do not tow a trailer. From 1 000 up to 1 500 kilometres › Gradually increase the power output of the engine up to the full speed of the gear engaged, i.e.
The optimal engine speed should be obtained when accelerating, in order to avoid a high fuel consumption and resonance of the vehicle.
Note Observe the recommended gear » page 10, Recommended gear. Ð If an engine is only idling it takes much longer for it to reach its normal operating temperature. Wear-and-tear and pollutant emissions, though, are particularly high in the warming-up phase. Therefore, start driving as soon as the engine has started, whereby high engine speeds should be avoided. Avoiding full throttle Ð Regular servicing Fig. 92 Principle sketch: Fuel consumption in litres/100 km. and speed in km/h.
It is particularly in town traffic, when one is accelerating quite often, that the vehicle weight will have a significant effect upon the fuel consumption. A rule of thumb here is that an increase in weight of 100 kilograms will cause an increase in fuel consumption of about 1 litre/100 kilometres. Avoid short distances Fig.
› The use of solvent-free adhesives. › No CFCs used in the production process. › Without use of mercury. › Use of water-soluble paints. Headlights The low beam of your headlights is set asymmetrically. It illuminates the side of the road on which the vehicle is being driven to a greater extent. Trade-in and recycling of old cars ŠKODA meets the requirements of the brand and its products with regard to protecting the environment and the preserving resources.
Driving through water on the street Fig. 94 Driving through water ■ Potholes, mud or rocks can be hidden under the water making it difficult or impossible to drive through the body of water. ■ Do not drive through salt water. The salt can lead to corrosion. Any vehicle parts that have come into contact with salt water must be rinsed immediately with fresh water. Note After driving through a body of water, we recommend that the vehicle is checked by a ŠKODA specialist garage.
WARNING General Maintenance Care products may be harmful to your health if not used according to the instructions.
If your vehicle is fitted with any particular attached parts, such as a spoiler, roof luggage rack, two-way radio aerial – it is best to consult the operator of the car wash system beforehand. Note ■ Remove fresh stains such as those from ball-point pens, ink, lipstick, shoe polish, etc., from the material (leather), panels and textiles as quickly as possible.
First clean the chrome parts with a damp cloth and then polish them with a soft, dry cloth. If this method does not completely clean chrome parts, use a specific chrome care product. CAUTION The temperature of the water used for cleaning must not exceed 60 °C – risk of damaging the vehicle. Ð CAUTION Do not polish the chrome parts in a dusty environment, otherwise they can be scratched.
CAUTION De-icing windows and exterior mirrors ä Never wipe the headlights dry and do not use any sharp objects to clean the plastic lenses, this may damage the protective paintwork and consequently cause the formation of cracks on the headlight lenses. ■ Do not use any aggressive cleaning or chemical solvent products to clean the Ð headlights – risk of damaging the headlight lenses. ■ First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 97.
As damage to the protective layer when driving cannot be ruled out completely, we recommend that you inspect the protective layer on the underside of your vehicle and on the chassis at specific intervals – preferably at the beginning and end of the winter. Wheels ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 97. ŠKODA Service Partners have suitable spray products and the necessary equipment available, and are familiar with the instructions for use.
Clean upholstery cover materials and cloth trims on doors, luggage compartment cover, etc. using specific cleaning agents, e.g., dry foam. Use a soft sponge, brush, or commercially available microfibre cloth. Use a cloth and a specific cleaning agent to clean the roof trim. Some clothing materials, such as dark denim, do, in part, not have sufficient colour fastness. This can cause damage or clearly visible discolouration to seat covers (fabric or leather) even when used correctly.
Seat belts ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 97. Keep the seat belts clean! Clean dirty seat belts using a mild soapy solution and remove coarse dirt with a soft brush! Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis. Belt webbing which has become severely soiled may prevent the inertia reel from reeling up the belt properly. WARNING The seat belts must not be removed for cleaning.
Refuelling Inspecting and replenishing Fig. 95 Filler flap with tank cap screwed on Fuel ä Introduction This chapter contains information on the following subjects: Refuelling Unleaded petrol 104 105 Vehicles running on CNG (compressed natural gas) » page 106. ä The correct type of fuel for your vehicle and the tyre size and inflation pressure are specified on the inside of the fuel filler flap » Fig. 95 on page 104. Open fuel filler flap › Open the fuel filler flap with one hand » Fig. 95.
Unleaded petrol ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 104. Your vehicle can only be operated with unleaded fuel that complies with the standard EN 228 (in Germany: standard DIN 51626-1 or E10 for unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 95 RON and 91 RON or DIN 51626-2 or E5 for unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON and 98 RON). Prescribed fuel – unleaded fuel 95/91 RON Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON.
WARNING (Continued) Vehicle running on CNG (compressed natural gas) A natural gas-powered vehicle must be shut down if no periodic testing of pressure accumulators is performed or an approved component has been replaced by a non-approved component. The vehicle owner is responsible for properly conducted tests. ■ The natural gas tanks must not be exposed to a heat source.
The fuel tank is full when the compressor of the refuelling system automatically switches off. To stop the refuelling operation prematurely, press the “Stop ” button of the refuelling system. Closing the filler cap › Check that the sealing ring 3 » Fig. 96 has remained in the gas filler tube. If it has slipped onto the filling coupling, reinsert it into the gas filler tube. › Plug the cap 1 onto the gas filler tube. › Close the filler cap.
The higher the calorific value of natural gas, the lower is the consumption. However, the calorific value and the nitrogen and carbon dioxide contents can vary within a quality group. Therefore, the consumption of the vehicle may even vary when driving with only one natural gas quality (either only H-gas or L-gas). Regular inspections of gas systems ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 106.
WARNING Never open the bonnet if you can see steam or coolant flowing out of the engine compartment – risk of scalding! Wait until the steam or coolant has stopped escaping. ■ Turn off the engine and withdraw the ignition key. ■ If the vehicle is fitted with a manual gearbox, move the gearshift lever into Neutral, or if the vehicle is fitted with an automatic gearbox, move the selector lever into position P. ■ Firmly apply the handbrake. ■ Allow the engine to cool.

One should therefore check the oil level at regular intervals, preferably every time after the fuel tank is filled or after driving for long stretches. Checking the engine oil level We recommend maintaining the oil level within the range A , but not above, if the engine has been operating at high loads, for example, during a lengthy motorway trip during the summer months, towing a trailer or negotiating a high mountain pass. Fig.
Coolant capacity Petrol engines Changing engine oil ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 108. The engine oil must be changed at the intervals stated in the Service schedule or according to the service interval indicator » page 10, Service Interval Display. 4.2 1.0 ltr./55 kW MPI 4.2 1.0 l/50 kW - CNG 4.
Loss of coolant A loss of coolant is first and foremost an indication of a leak in the system. Do not merely top up the coolant. Have the cooling system checked by a ŠKODA specialist garage immediately. CAUTION Do not continue your journey, if it is not possible to top up the coolant under the prevailing conditions. Contact a ŠKODA Service Partner to avoid the risk of serious engine.
There may be an indication of a leak in the brake system, however, if the fluid level drops significantly within a short time or if it drops below the “MIN” marking. If the brake fluid level is too low, this is indicated by the warning light lighting up in the instrument cluster » page 15, Brake system . Windscreen washer system Fig.
WARNING Vehicle battery ä The battery acid is strongly corrosive and must, therefore, be handled with the greatest of care. Always wear protective gloves, eye and skin protection when handling the vehicle battery. Corrosive fumes in the air irritate the air passages and lead to conjunctivitis and inflammation of the air passages in the lungs. They corrode tooth enamel. After contact with the skin, the acid creates deep wounds which take a long time to heal.
CAUTION Checking the battery electrolyte level The vehicle battery must only be disconnected if the ignition is switched off, otherwise the vehicle's electrical system (electronic components) can be damaged. When disconnecting the battery from the electrical system, first of all disconnect the negative terminal (-) of the battery. Then disconnect the positive terminal (+). ■ When connecting the battery to the electrical system, first connect the positive terminal (+) of the battery.
Operation in winter ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 115. At low temperatures, the vehicle battery only has part of the initial power output that it has at normal temperatures. A discharged vehicle battery may already freeze at temperatures just below 0 °C. We therefore recommend that you have the battery checked and, if necessary, reÐ charged by a ŠKODA Service Partner before the start of the winter.
We recommend that the battery is replaced by a ŠKODA Service Partner, where the new vehicle battery will be installed properly and the original battery will be disposed of in accordance with national regulations. Ð Automatic load deactivation ä First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnings on page 115.
WARNING (Continued) Wheels and Tyres You must have your tyres replaced with new ones at the latest when the wear indicators have been worn down. ■ Worn tyres do not provide the necessary adhesion to the road surface at high speeds on wet roads. One could experience “aquaplaning” (uncontrolled movements of the vehicle – “swimming” on a wet road surface). ■ Immediately replace damaged wheel rims or tyres. ■ Do not use summer or winter tyres that are older than 6 years or 4 years respectively.
Service life of tyres Balancing wheels The wheels of a new vehicle are balanced. There are a wide range of influences when driving which may result in an imbalance and which makes themselves felt through vibration in the steering. Have the wheels rebalanced after replacing the tyres. Wheel alignment errors Incorrect wheel alignment at the front and rear will not only increase wear-andtear on the tyres but will also has an adverse effect on vehicle safety.
Proper knowledge of the tyre data makes it easier for you to select the correct type of tyre. Tyres, for example, have the following inscription on their walls. Handling wheels and tyres 185/55 R 15 82 T Fig. 106 Changing wheels around ä What this means is: First read and observe the introductory information and safety warnon page 119.
If, in the event of a puncture, it is necessary to fit a spare wheel with a tyre without a dedicated running direction or the opposite running direction, drive carefully as the optimum characteristics of the tyre are no longer applicable in this situaÐ tion. Spare wheel Fig. 107 Luggage compartment: Spare wheel Please observe the following when driving with a temporary spare wheel. › The warning label must not be covered after installing the wheel.
CAUTION Wheel bolts Use the pressure of your hand, do not knock the full wheel trim! Heavy knocks mainly on the points where the full wheel trim has not been inserted into the wheel, can result in damage to the guide and centring elements of the full wheel trim. ■ First of all check that the theft-deterrent wheel bolt is located in the hole near the valve before fitting the full wheel trim onto a steel wheel which is attached with a theft-deterrent wheel bolt » page 131, Securing wheels against theft.
When driving on wintry roads, snow chains improve not only traction, but also the braking performance. For technical reasons, it is only permissible to fit snow chains with the following wheel/tyre combinations. Tyre size Rim 165/70 R14 5J x 14 ET 35 Only fit snow chains with links and locks not larger than 15 mm. Remove the full wheel trims before installing the snow chains. Observe the national legal regulations relating to the use of snow chains and the maximum vehicle speed with snow chains.
