www.skoda-auto.comHow you can contribute to a cleaner envi-
ronment
The fuel consumption of your Škoda - and thus
the level of pollutants contained in the exhaust
- is also determined by how you drive.
The noise level and wear and tear are also in flu-
enced by how you personally handle your vehi-
cle. This Owner ´s Manual tells you how to drive your Škoda to achieve the minimum impact on
the environment, and how to save money at
the same time. Look up „Environment“ in the
Index to find out more.
Please also refer to all the texts identif ied with a
C in this Owner ´s Manual.
Make your contribution - for the sake of
the environment.

You have opted for a Škoda,
sincere thanks for your confidence.Your Škoda has proven to be a successful car for all-round use.
Functionality, customer satisfaction and environmental protection
aspects played an important part in its design, the selection of
materials used and manufacture.
The results speak for themselves.
Your Škoda is extremely economic when it comes to fuel con-
sumption, has a low pollution level, needs only a small amount of
servicing at long intervals and has durable wearing parts.
Your Škoda thus has all the virtues typical for a modern car such
as good motoring economy, quality, reliability and long-time re-
tention of its value.
An efficient service organisation is available for looking after your
Škoda: in Europe alone, the service network already comprises
more than 2500 Škoda Dealers that work economically and pro-
fessionally in accordance with factory guidelines.
These Škoda Dealers are also committed to ensure that your
Škoda is always in proper condition.
A requirement for warranting repairs free of charge is that
the Service Inspections (see Service Schedule) and repairs
during the warranty period have been carried out by an au-
thorized Škoda Dealer.Warranty claims are void
if the damage to the vehicle has been
caused by parts and accessories not approved by the manufac-
turer Škoda Auto, or by failure to observe maintenance and repair
instructions.
Your Škoda Dealers will gladly supply details of the aforemen-
tioned services and possible differences in specific countries.
Please also refer to the information in the Service Schedule.
We wish you pleasant motoring at all times.
Your Škoda Auto
