WARNING
•The belt locks and the pelvic belt must be in their original position after
folding back the seat backrest - they must be ready to use.
•The seat backrests must be securely interlocked in position so that no
objects in the luggage compartment can slide forward if there is sudden
braking - risk of injury!
•Pay attention that the rear seat backrest is correctly interlocked. It is only
then that the three-point seat belt for the middle seat can reliably fulfil its
function.
•Before folding the seat backrest back into the secure position, place the
rear lateral seat belt behind the edge of the side trim panel. Take suitable
measures to prevent that the seat belt is jammed between the seat backrest
and the side trim panel is thus damaged.

seats for storing light and soft items.
WARNING
No objects should be placed on the luggage compartment cover, the vehicle
occupants could be endangered if there is sudden braking or the vehicle
collides with something.
Caution
Please ensure that the heating elements of the rear window heater are not
damaged as a result of obje cts placed in this area.

The roof luggage rack system
Description
Pay attention to the following points if yo u wish to transport luggage or other items
on the roof of your vehicle:
•Your car has streamlined rain channels in tegrated into the roof. For this reason,
it is not possible to use conventional r oof racks. We therefore recommend that you
only use base roof bars from the Škoda Genuine Accessories.
•These base roof bars are the supporti ng elements for a complete roof bar
system. Separate additional components are required for safety reasons for trans-
porting luggage, bikes, surfboards, skis and boats. All these components you can
obtain replacement fuses from a Škoda Service Partner.
Caution
•If you use other roof rack sy stems or if the roof bars are not properly fitted, then
any damage which may result to your ca r is not covered by the warranty agree-

ments. It is therefore essential to pay a ttention to the fitting instructions supplied
with the roof luggage rack system.
•On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof, ensure that the opened
sliding/tilting roof does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption. One should
therefore take off the roof bar system after use.
Attachment points
Fitting
When fitting on the feet of the roof bars, ensure that they are positioned exactly
between the arrow markings in the sealing strip on the roof ⇒fig. 84 . The markings
are visible only when the doors are open.
Roof load
Distribute weight evenly over the roof luggage rack system. The maximum permis-
sible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and the maximum permissible
total weight of the vehicl e should not be exceeded. You cannot make full use of the permissible
roof load if you use a roof luggage rack
system with a lower load carrying capa city. The load transported on the roof
luggage rack system must not exceed the weight limit which is stated in the fitting
instructions.
WARNING
•The items which you transport on the roof bar system must be reliably
attached - risk of accident!
•You must on no account exceed the permissible roof load, the permis-
sible axle loads and the permissible gros s weight of your vehicle - risk of
accident!
•Please note that the handling prop erties of your vehicle change when
you transport heavy or bulky items on the roof bar system as a result of the
displacement of the centre of gravity and the increased wind attack area -
risk of accident! You must absolutely adapt your style of driving and the
speed of the vehicle to the specific circumstances.
