•
For safety reasons, it is not possible to store this position if the inclination angle
of the seat backrest is more than 102° in relation to the seat cushion.•
When storing settings with the memory buttons, we recommend that you begin
with the front button and assign a memo
ry button to each additional driver.

to assign the radio remote control to a
memory button in each case. If you wish, you can obtain an additional
remote control key from an authorised
Škoda Service partner and then assign th
e remote control key to another memory
button.
Note
•
If the radio remote control had previous
ly been assigned
to another memory
button, this setting is then erased by the new assignment.•

imagine the injuries that can occur, if this “bullet” is flying through the interior compartment and hits an occupant.
WARNING
•
Store the objects in the luggage comp
artment and attach them to the
lashing eyes.•
Loose objects in the passenger compartment can be thrown forward
during a sudden manoeuvre or in case
of an accident and can injure the
occupants or other oncoming traffic. This risk is still increased, if the objects which are flying around are hit by a depl
oyed airbag. In this case, the objects
which are thrown back can injure the occupants - hazard.•
Please note that the handling properti
es of your vehicle may be affected
when transporting heavy objects as a result of the displacement of the centre of gravity. The speed and style
of driving must be adjusted accord-
ingly.•
The items carried in the luggage compar
tment should be stored in such
a way that no objects are
able to slip forw
ard if there are any sudden driving
or braking manoeuvres undertaken - risk of injury!•
Never drive with the boot lid fully opened or slightly ajar otherwise
exhaust gases may get into the interior of the vehicle - risk of poisoning!•
On no account exceed the permissi
ble axle loads and the permissible
gross weight of the vehi
cle - risk of accident!
•
Never transport occupants in the luggage compartment!Caution
Please ensure that the heating elements of the rear window heater are not damaged as a result of objects sliding in this area.
Note
Tyre pressure must be adjusted to the load
⇒page 235, fig. 210
.
Lashing eyesEyes are located on the sides of the loading area for lashing the goods to be loaded. You can also attach a floor fixing net*
to these eyes for lashing small objects.
WARNING
•
The load to be transported must be fixed in place in such a way that it
cannot move during the journey and when braking.•
If the items of luggage or objects ar
e attached to the lashing eyes with
unsuitable or damaged lashing straps,
injuries can occur in the event of
braking manoeuvres or accidents. In
order to prevent the items of luggage
being thrown forward, always use suit
able lashing straps which are firmly
attached to the lashing eyes.

The roof rack*DescriptionPay attention to the following points if you wish to transport luggage or other items on the roof of your vehicle:•
A special roof luggage rack system was
developed for the vehicle, that is why
you should only use a roof luggage rack which has been released for use by Škoda Auto.•
The base carrier is the basis for a comple
te roof luggage rack system. Separate
additional holders are required for safety reasons for transporting luggage, bikes, surfboards, skis and boats.•
The basic version of the roof luggage ra
ck system and further components are
obtainable as accessories from th
e authorised Škoda Service Partners.
Caution
•
If you use other roof rack systems 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 attention 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.•
Ensure that the opened boot lid do
es not collide with the roof load.
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 pointsPerform the assembly and the disassembly according to the attached instructions.
Note
If you have any questions, plea
se contact a specialist garage.
Roof loadDistribute 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 th
e 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!
