Introduction 2
On-board literature
The on-board literature for your vehicle consists of this “Owner's
Manual” as well as a “Service schedule” and a “Help on the road”. There
can also be a variety of other additional operating manuals and instruc-
tions on-board (e.g. an operating manual for the radio) depending on the
vehicle model and equipment.
If one of the publications listed above is missing, please contact an
authorised Škoda dealer immediately, where one will be glad to assist you
in such matters.
One should note that the details given in the vehicle's papers always
take precedence over those in the Owner's Manual.
Owner's Manual
This Owner's Manual describes the current scope of equipment.
Certain items of equipment listed are only installed later on and only
envisaged for particular markets. The illustrations can differ in minor
details from your vehicle; they are only intended for general information.
In addition to information regarding all the controls and equipment, the
Owner's Manual also contains important information regarding care and
operation for your safety and also to retain the value of your vehicle. To
provide you with valuable tips and aids. You will learn how you can
operate your vehicle safely, economically and in an environmentally
conscious way.
For safety reasons, please also pay attention to the information on
accessories, modifications and replacement of parts ⇒page 241.
The other chapters of the Owner's Manual are also important, however,
for proper treatment of your car - in addition to regular care and mainte-
nance - helps to retain its value and in many cases is also one of the
conditions for possible warranty claims.The Service schedule
contains:
•
Vehicle data,
•
Service intervals,
•
Overview of the service work,
•
Service proof,
•
Confirmation of mobility warranty (only valid in certain countries)
•
important information on the warranty.
The confirmations of the carried out service work are one of the condi-
tions for possible warranty claims.
Please always present the Service schedule when you take your car to an
authorised Škoda Service Partner.
If the Service schedule is missing or worn, please contact your authorised
Škoda Service Partner, where your car is serviced regularly. You will
receive a duplicate, in which the previously carried out service work are
confirmed.

on right-hand drive models may differ from that shown in

Climatronic* (automatic air conditioning)Description The Climatronic system is a combin
ation of an automatic heating,
fresh air and cooling system which provides optimal comfort for the occupants of the car.The Climatronic maintains fully automatically a convenience temperature. This is achieved by automatically varying the temperature of the outflowing air, the blower stages and the air distribution. The system also takes into account sunlight which eliminates the need to alte
r the settings manually. The
automatic mode
⇒ page 110 ensures maximum wellbeing of th
e occupants at all times of the year.
Description of Climatronic system The cooling operates only if the following conditions are met:•
engine running,
•
outside temperature above approx. +2°C,
•
switched on.
The AC compressor is switched off at a hi
gh coolant temperature in order to provide
cooling at a high load of the engine. Recommended setting for al
l periods of the year:
•
Set the desired temperature, we recommend 22 °C.
•
Press the button
⇒fig. 128
.
•
Move the air outlet vents
2 and
3 so that the air flow is directed slightly upwards.
Aeration of the vehicle when ignition is switched off* On vehicles fitted with power sliding/tilting roof with solar cells* the fresh air blower is automatically switched over to “solar mode” if the sun rays are sufficient after switching off the ignition. The solar
cells on the sliding/tilting roof deliver
power for the fresh air blower
. This supplies the interior of the car with fresh air.
For an optimum ventilation, the air outlet vents
2 and
3 must be opened
⇒ page 105, fig. 125
.
The ventilation functions only when the sliding/tilting roof is closed.
Note
On vehicles equipped with a
factory-fitted radio* or navi
gation*, the information of
the Climatronic is also shown on the display. This function can be switched off, see operating instructions of the ra
dio* or the navigation system*.
