on or off by pressing the switch
⇒ fig. 55
- the indicator light in the switch comes on or goes out.
The rear window heater only operates when the engine is running. The rear wind
ow heater
switches
off automatically after 10 minutes.
For the sake of the environment
As soon as the window is de-iced or free from
mist, the heating should be switched off.
The reduced current consumption will have a favourable effect on fuel economy ⇒ page 177, “Saving electricity”.Note
•
The position and the shape of the swit
ch can differ depending on equipment
installed in the vehicle.•
If the on-board voltage drops, the rear window heater is switched off automatically,
in order to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control.
Sun visorsFig. 56 Sun visor: Swivelling out / double sun visor: Folding outYou can pull the sun visor for the driver or front passenger out of the fixture and swivel it toward the door in the direction of the arrow

The vanity mirrors* in the sun visors are provided with covers. Push the cover in direc- tion of arrow . On vehicles which are equipped with double
sun visor*, you can also unfold the auxil-
iary visor in direction of arrow after swivelling the sun visor
⇒fig. 56
.
WARNING
The sun visors must not be swivelled to the side windows into the deployment area of the head airbags if any objects, su
ch as ball-point pens
etc. are attached
to them. This might result in injuries to the occupants if the head airbag is deployed.

Control for air distribution– You can adjust the direction of the air
flow using the air distribution control
⇒ page 95.
Rear window heater– Press button . Further information
⇒page 62, “Rear window heater”.
Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating)*– Press the button in order to directly switch on/off the auxiliary heating (auxiliary
heating and ventilation). Further information
⇒page 105, “Auxiliary heating (auxil-
iary heating and ventilation)*”.
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of ice, snow or leaves in order to ensure that the heating and ventilation systems operate properly. The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature. The blower should aways be on to prevent the windows from misting up.
WARNING
You should not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time, as “stale” air may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, divert your atten- tion and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases. Switch recirculated air mo
de off as soon as the windows begin
misting up.
Note
•
The whole heat output will be needed to unfrost the windscreen and side windows.
No warm air will be fed to the footwell. Th
is can lead to restriction of the heating
comfort.•
The used air streams out through the air removal openings in the luggage
compartment.

We recommend that you do not smoke in the vehicle when the recirculating air
mode is operating since the smoke which is drawn at the evaporator from the interior of the vehicle forms deposits in the evapor
ator of the air conditioning system. This
produces a permanent odour when the air co
nditioning system is operating which can
only be eliminated through considerable
effort and expense (replacement of
compressor).Using the systemFig. 109 Climatic: Control elementsSetting temperature– Turn the control dial

The used air streams out through the air
removal openings in the luggage compart-
ment.•
If the cooling system has not been switched on for a lengthy period, odours may
be produced at the evaporator because of
deposits. Switch the cooling system on at
least once a month for approximately 5 minu
tes at the highest blower stage - also
during the cold season of the year - in order to remove such odours. Also open a window for a short time.

, so that the air flow is directed
slightly upwards.
– Press the button . In the right or left top corner a warning light lights up,
depending on which unit was last selected.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button lights up, the Climatronic operates in “HIGH” mode. The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of the Climatronic. When pressing again the button , the Cl
imatronic changes into the “LOW” mode
and the warning light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses only in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking
into account the no
ise level, this is
more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air conditioning system is reduced particularly if th
e vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing again the button , yo
u change into the “HIGH” mode.
The automatic mode is switched off by pres
sing the button for the air distribution or
increasing or decreasing the blower speed. The temperature is nevertheless regulated.

WARNING
•
“Stale air” may result in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce atten-

Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation)*Description and important information The auxiliary heating (auxiliary he
ating and ventilation) heats or
supplies the interior of the vehicl
e with fresh air independent of the
engine.Auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) functions in connection with the Climatic or Climatronic. It can be used when stationary, when engi
ne is switched off for preheating of the
vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine). The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa
rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment. Auxiliary ventilation The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).

WARNING
•
The auxiliary heating must never be op
erated in closed rooms - risk of
poisoning!•
The auxiliary heating must not be runn
ing during refueling - risk of fire.
•
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of the
vehicle. Therefore do not place the vehicl
e, if you wish to operate the auxiliary
heating, in such a way that the exhaust
gases of the auxiliary heating can come
easily into contact with inflammable materi
als (e.g. dry grass) or easily inflam-
mable substances (e.g. fuel run out).
Note
If the auxiliary heating runs, the fuel co
nsumption comes from the vehicle tank. The
auxiliary heating automatically controls the filling level in the fuel tank. If only a low quantity of fuel is present in the fuel tank, the function of the auxiliary heating is blocked.•
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating, which is located on the underside of the
vehicle, must not be clogged and the exhaust flow must not be blocked.•
If the auxiliary heating and ventilation is
running, the vehicle ba
ttery discharges. If
the auxiliary heating and ventilation has be
en operated several times over a longer
period, the vehicle must be driven a few ki
lometers in order to recharge the vehicle
battery.•
The auxiliary heating only switches the blower on, if it has achieved a coolant
temperature of approx. 50 °C.•
At low outside temperatures, this can result
in a formation of water vapour in the
area of the engine compartment. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.•
After switching off the auxiliary heating,
the coolant pump runs for a short period.
•
The auxiliary heating and ventilation does no
t switch on or comes on, if the vehicle
battery indicates a low loading state.•
The auxiliary heating (auxilia
ry heating) does not switch on, if the following was
shown in the information display or before switching off the ignition:
Please refuel!.
.
•
The air inlet in front of the windscreen must
be free of ice, snow or leaves in order
to ensure that the auxiliary heating operates properly.
•
So that warm air can flow in
to the vehicle after switching on the auxiliary heating,
you must maintain the temperature normally selected by you (we recommend 22°C for Climatic, Climatronic and for the heat
ing turn the regulator A to the right
⇒ page 96, fig. 108
). It is recommended to put the air flow in the position
.
•
On vehicles with DPF (diesel particle filt
er) the warm coolant heats up the engine.
Direct switching on/offThe auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and vent
ilation) can be switched on or off at any
time
directly
using the button on the operating part of the Climatic, Climatronic or
heating
⇒fig. 111
.
If the auxiliary heating and ventilation is not
switched off earlier, it switches off auto-
matically after the expiration of the set operating period, in the menu
Running time
.
Note
A radio remote control for the auxiliary heating can be obtained from Škoda original accessories.
