– Reinstall the full wheel trim/wheel cap after removing the adapter or
place the cap onto the safety wheel bolt.
– Have the
tightening torque
checked
w i t h a t o rq u e w re n c h a s s o o n a s
possible. Steel and light alloy wheels must be tightened to a tightening torque of
120 Nm
.
The safety wheel bolts on vehicles fitted with them (one safety wheel bolt per wheel) can only be loosened or tigh
ten up by using the adapter provided.
It is meaningful to note the code numbe
r hammered into the rear side of the
adapter or the rear side of the safety wheel bolts. You can obtain a replacement adapter from an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if necessary, by quoting this number. We recommend that you always carry the
adapter for the wheel bolts with you in
the vehicle. It should be st
owed in the vehicle tool kit.
Caution
Damage can occur to the adapter and safety
wheel bolt if the safety wheel bolt is
tightened up too much.
Note
The set of safety wheel bolts can be obta
ined from an authorised Škoda Service
Par tner.Jump-startingInitial stepsYou can use the battery of another vehicl
e for jump-starting yours if the engine
does not start because the battery on your
vehicle is flat. You will require jump-start
cables for this purpose.
Both batteries must have a rated voltage of 12 V. The
capacity
(Ah) of the battery
supplying the power must not be signific
antly less than the capacity of the
discharged battery
in your vehicle.
Jump-start cables Only use jump-start cables which have an
adequately large cross-section and insu-
lated terminal clamps. Please pay attent
ion to the manufacturer's instructions.
Positive cable -
colour coding in the
majority of cases red.
Negative cable -
colour coding in the majority of cases black.
WARNING
•
A discharged battery may already freeze
at temperatures just below 0°C.
In case of frozen battery carry out no jump-starting - risk of explosion!•
Please pay attention to the warning instructions relating to working in
the engine compartment
⇒page 223, “Working in the engine compart-
ment”.
Note
•
There must not be any contact between the two vehicles otherwise current may
flow as soon as the negative terminals are connected.•
The discharged battery must be proper
ly connected to the system of the
vehicle.•
Switch off any mobile phone, pay attent
ion to the instructions for use of the
mobile phone in such a situation.•
We recommend purchasing jump-start cabl
es from Škoda Service Partners as a
Škoda original accessory or from retailers who sell branded batteries.

Jump-starting on vehicles with jump-starting pointFor vehicles with the 3.6 ltr./191 kW FS
I engines, the positive terminal of
the battery supplying the power can only be connected to the jump-starting point in the engine compartment of the vehicle which must be started by means of a jump-starting cable
⇒
fig. 223
!
– Open the protective cap of the ju
mp-starting point in direction of
arrow.
– Connect the positive terminal of
the battery supplying the power with
the jump-starting point.
– Attach the negative terminal of the battery supplying the power to a
solid metal part which is connected fi
rmly to the engine block or to the
engine block itself.
–Start the engine
⇒
page 251.
– After the engine start, close the
protective cap of the jump-starting
point.
Tow-starting and towing vehicleGeneralPlease pay attention to the following in
structions if you are going to use a
tow rope: Driver of the towing vehicle – Do not drive off until the tow rope is taught. – Release the clutch particularly gent
ly when starting off or depress the
accelerator particularly gently if yo
ur vehicle is fitted with an auto-
matic gearbox.
Driver of the towed vehicle – Switch the ignition on so that th
e steering wheel is not blocked and
you can also operate the turn signal
lights, the headlight flasher, the
windscreen wipers and windscreen washer system.
– Take the vehicle out of gear or move the selector lever into position
N
if your vehicle is fitted
with an automatic gearbox.
– Note that the brake servo unit and po
wer steering only operate if the
engine is running. You will require
significantly greater physical force
to depress the brake pedal and to steer the vehicle if the engine is not running.
– Ensure that the tow rope is always kept taught.Tow rope or tow bar A tow
bar
is safest way of towing a vehicle and also minimizes any shocks. You can
use a tow
rope
only if a suitable tow bar is not available.
The tow rope must be elastic to protect
the vehicle. Thus one should only use
plastic fibre rope or a rope made
out of a similarly elastic material.

Fuses and light bulbsElectric fusesReplacing fuses Defect fuses must be replaced.Individual electrical circuits are prot
ected by fuses. The fuses are located
on the left side of the dash panel behind the safety cover and under the cover in the engine compartment on the left. – Switch the ignition off and also the electrical component affected.– Use a screwdriver to take off the fuse cover on the side of the dash
panel
⇒
fig. 228
or the fuse cover in the engine compartment
⇒
page 257, fig. 229
.
– Find out which fuse belongs to the relevant component
⇒

“Fuse assignment in the dash panel”,
⇒
page 257, “Fuse assignment
in engine compartment - version 1” or
⇒
page 259, “Fuse assignment
in engine compartment - version 2”.
– Take the plastic clip out of its fixture in the fuse cover, insert it onto the
respective fuse and pull out this fuse.
– Defect fuses can be detected by th
eir melted metal st
rips. Replace the
defect fuse by a new fuse of the
same
ampere number.
– Fit on the fuse cover again.We recommend that you always have the
small box of replacement fuses in your
vehicle. You can obtain replacement fuses from Škoda original accessories or from a specialist garage
17).
Colour coding of fuses
Caution
•
Never attempt to “repair” fuses and also do not replace them with a fuse of a
higher amperage - risk of fire! This may
also cause damage at another part of the
electrical system.•
Have the electrical system checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage
if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.

Technical Data
Fuse cover in engine compartment The fuse box in the engine comp
artment exists in two different
versions. You can determine which version your vehicle is fitted with after removing the fuse cover at the location of the fuses.On some vehicles, the battery cover
must be removed before removing
the fuse cover
⇒
page 229.
Removing fuse cover – Move the circlips
⇒
fig. 229
as far as the stop, the symbol

appears behind the circlip and remove the cover.
Installing fuse cover – Position the fuse cover on the fuse box and push the circlips as far
as the stop - the symbol
 is visible behind the circlip.
Caution
•
When unlocking and locking the fuse cover,
it must be pressed on the sides to
the box, otherwise damage can
occur to the locking mechanism.
•
Carefully position the fuse cover in th
e engine compartment. If the cover was
not correctly positioned, water can get into
the fuses and this results in a damage
to the vehicle!

switch on again automatically after a few seconds after the overload has been eliminated.
BulbsChanging bulbsThe relevant lamp must always be switch
ed off before a light bulb is replaced.
Defect light bulbs should only be replaced
with light bulbs of the same type. The
designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb. Changing certain bulbs is not something wh
ich you can do yourself, but requires to
be done by a specialist. Other parts of the vehicle must be removed in order to change the light bulbs. This applies, in
particular, to bulbs which can only be
reached from the engine compartment. We therefore recommend that you have an
y bulbs changed by an authorised Škoda
Service Partner or, in exceptional cases, by
calling on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine co
mpartment is a hazardous area
⇒page 223,
“Working in the engine compartment”. We recommend that you always have a sm
all box of replacement bulbs in your
vehicle. You can obtain replacement bulbs from Škoda original accessories or from a specialist garage
