the traffic flow. The place you choose should be
level
.
–Have
all the occupants get out.
While changing a wheel, the occupants of the
vehicle should not stand on the ro

system and place the warning triangle on
the side of the road at the prescribed
distance from your vehicle while observing all national legal provisions. In this way you are protecting not only yourself but also other road users.•
Never start the engine with the vehicle si
tting on the raised
jack - danger of
suffering injury.
Caution
If you have to change a wheel on a slope first block the opposite wheel with a stone or similar object in order to secure the
vehicle from unexpectedly rolling away.
Note
Comply with the national legal regulations.
Changing a wheelAlways change a wheel on a level surface as far as possible. – Take off the full wheel trim*
⇒page 226 or the caps
⇒page 226.
– In the case of light alloy wheels remove the wheel trim cap
⇒page 227.
– First of all slacken the safety wheel bolt * and afterwards the other wheel bolts
⇒ page 227.
– Jack up the vehicle until the wheel to
be changed is clear of the ground
⇒ page 227.
– Unscrew the wheel bolts and place them
on a clean surface (cloth, paper etc.).
– Take off the wheel. – Fit on the spare wheel and tighten the wheel bolts slightly.– Lower the car. – Tighten the wheel bolts firmly, alternatel
y and diagonally using the wheel wrench
(crosswise) and last the safety wheel bolt*
⇒page 227.
Note
•
All bolts must be clean and must turn easily.
•
You must never grease or oil the wheel bolts!
•
When fitting on unidirectiona
l tyres, ensure that the tyres rotate in the correct
direction
⇒page 215.
Subsequent stepsAfter changing the wheel, you mu

WARNING
•
The non-insulated parts of the terminal clamps must never make contact
with each other. Furthermore, the cable connected to the positive terminal of the battery must not come into contact with electrically conducting parts of the vehicle - risk of a short circuit!•
Do not affix the jump starting cables to the negative terminal of the
discharged battery. There is
the risk of detonating gas seeping out the battery
being ignited by the strong spark which
results from the engine being started.
•
Run the jump-start cables so that they cannot be caught by any rotating
parts in the engine compartment.•
Do not bend over the batteries - risk of caustic burns!
•
The vent screws of the battery
cells must be tightened firmly.
•
Keep any sources of ignition (naked
flame, smouldering
cigarettes etc.)
away from the battery - risk of an explosion!•
Never jump-start the batteries which have a too low electrolyte level - risk
of explosion and caustic burns!Tow-starting and towing vehicleGeneralPlease pay attention to the following instru
ctions 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 gently wh
en starting off or depress the accelerator
particularly gently if yo
ur vehicle is fitted wi
th an automatic gearbox.
Driver of the towed vehicle– Switch the ignition on so that the steer
ing 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 power 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 shou
ld only use plastic
fibre rope or a rope made out
of a similarly elastic material.
Only attach the tow rope to the
towing eyes
provided for this purpose
⇒page 231
and
⇒page 231.
Driving style Towing another vehicle requires a certain am
ount of practice. Both drivers should be
familiar with the particular points about to
wing a vehicle. Unskilled drivers should not
attempt to tow in another vehicle or to be towed in. One should be constantly vigilant not to
allow impermissibly high
towing forces or
jerky loadings. There is always a risk of excessive stresses and damage resulting at the points to which you attach the tow rope or
tow bar when you attempt to tow a vehicle
which is not standing on a paved road.
Caution
If the gearbox of your vehicle no longer
contains any oil because of a defect, your
vehicle must only be towed in with the driven wheels raised clear of the ground, or on a special vehicle transporter or trailer.
Note
•
Please comply with any national legal provisions particularly regarding the
switched on signal systems, when towi
ng in or tow-starting another vehicle.
•
The tow rope must not be twisted as it may in certain circumstances result in the
front towing eye being unscrewed out of your vehicle.

For power consumers, e.g. the radio, which ca
n be operated with the ignition switched
off as long as the ignition key is not withdrawn. Electrically adjustable seats are protected by
automatic circuit breakers
, which
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 desig-
nation is located on the ligh
t socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something whic
h 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 any
bulbs changed by a specialist garage or,
in exceptional cases, by calling
on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area
⇒page 204, “Working
in the engine compartment”. We recommend that you always have a small box of replacement bulbs in your vehicle. You can obtain replacement bulbs from Škoda
original accessories or from a specialist
garage
18).
The set of light bulbs can be stowed
in the box in the luggage compartment.
Fitted with a xenon headlightChange of bulbs on vehicles with Xenon lights (low beam lights, parking lights and main beam lights) should be undertaken by a specialist garage. Bulb - Overview
