Lights and Visibility
66Wiper blades in proper
condition are essential to obtain
good visibility
. Wiper blades
should not be allowed to become dirtied by
dust, insect remains and preserving wax.
Juddering or smearing of the
wiper blades could then be
due to wax residues left on
the windscreen by vehicle washing in automa
tic vehicle wash systems. It is therefore
important to
degrease
the lips of the wi
per blades after every pass through an
auto-
matic vehicle wash system
.
WARNING
•
If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to
the windscreen.•
You should clean the wiper blades regu
larly with a windscreen cleaner in
order to avoid any smears. Clean a wiper blad
e with a sponge or cloth if it is very
dirty, for example from insect residues.•
Replace the wiper blades once or twice a year for safety reasons. The wiper
blades are available from specialist garages.Replacing the wiper blade on the rear window wiperTaking off the wiper blade– Fold windscreen wiper arm
away from the windscreen.
– Press the locking button, in order to unl
ock the wiper blade and pull off in the
direction of arrow
⇒fig. 59
.
Attaching a wiper blade– Push the wiper blade until it locks up to the stop. – Check whether the wiper blade is correctly attached. – Fold the windscreen wiper ar
m back onto the windscreen.
The same remarks apply here as for

Switching off the automatic dimming– Press again the button - the warning light goes out . If the automatic dimming is switched on, the mirror dims
automatically
depending on
the light striking the mirror from the rear.
The mirror has no lever on the bottom edge
of the mirror. When the interior lights are sw
itched on or the reverse gear is engaged,
the mirror always moves back
into the basic position.
Note
•
Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair the
automatic dimming function or put it out of operation.•
If you switch off the automatic dimming inte
rior rear-view mirror, also the exterior
mirror dimming is switched off.Exterior mirror You can adjust the exterior mirrors electrically.The exterior mirror he
ater* only operates when the en
gine is running and up to an
outside temperature of +20°C.Heating of the external mirror*– Turn the rotary knob to position
 ⇒fig. 61
.
Adjusting left and right exterior mirrors simultaneously– Turn the rotary knob to position
. The movement of the mirror surface is identical
to the movement of the rotary knob.
Adjusting the right-hand exterior mirror– Turn the rotary knob to position
. The movement of the mirror surface is identical
to the movement of the rotary knob.
Switching off operating control– Turn the rotary knob to position
.
Tilting surface of front pa
ssenger exterior mirror*
When the rotary knob is in position
 ⇒fig. 61
and the reverse gear is engaged, the
surface of the mirror tilts down slightly. This provides an aid in seeing the kerb of the pavement when parking the car. The mirror returns into its initial position, after the rotary knob is moved out of the position
 and put into another position or if the speed is more than 15 km/h.
Memory for exterior mirrors* On vehicles fitted with a memory for the driver seat, the relevant setting of the exterior mirror is also stored
automatically when the se
at position is stored
⇒page 70.
WARNING
•
Convex (curved outward) or spherical (differently curved) exterior mirrors
increase the vision field. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These mirrors are only of limited
use, therefore, for estimating distances
to the following vehicles.•
Use whenever possible the interior rear
mirror, for estimating the distances
to the following vehicles.
Note
•
Do not touch the surfaces of the exterior
mirrors if the exterior
mirror heater is
switched on.

You can set the exterior mirrors by hand, if
the power setting function fails at any
time by pressing on the edge of the mirror surface.•
Contact your specialist garage if a fault ex
ists with the power setting of the exterior
mirrors.Automatic dimming exterior mirror*The exterior mirrors are dimmed together with the interior mirror. If the automatic dimming is switched on, the mirror dims
automatically
depending on the light
striking the mirror from the rear. When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the mirror always moves back into the
basic position (not dimmed).
Note
•
Automatic mirror dimming operates only properly if the sun screen* for the rear
window is not in use or the light striking the rear of the interior rear-view mirror is not affected by other objects.•
Do not affix any stickers in front of the light sensor, so that you do not impair the
automatic dimming function or put it out of operation.•
If you switch off the automatic dimming interior rear-view mirror, also the exterior
mirror dimming is switched off.sgg.6.book Page 68 Thursday, September 24, 2009 2:32 PM

Towing a trailer
190
Towing a trailerTo w i n g a t r a i l e rTechnical requirements The towing device must satisfy certain technical requirements.Your vehicle is designed primarily for tr
ansporting persons and luggage. It can,
however, also be used for towing a traile
r - provided certain technical equipment is
fitted. If your vehicle has already been supplied with a
factory-fitted
towing device then
everything that is nece
ssary for towing a trailer in technical terms, and in terms of the
law, has already been taken into account. Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pin power so
cket for the electrical connection between
the vehicle and trailer. If the tr
ailer which you wish to tow has a
7-pin connector
, you
can use a suitable adapter
14) from Škoda original accessories.
This work must be carried out in accordance
with the manufacturer's specifications if
a towing device is retrofitted. Authorised Škoda Service Partners are familiar with details relating to retrofitting a towing device and for any necessary
modifications to the cooling system.
WARNING
We recommend that you have the towing device from Škoda original accesso- ries installed by an authorised Škoda Serv
ice Partner. He is familiar with all the
relevant details relating to retrofitting such equipment. There is a risk of an accident if the towing device is not properly fitted!
General Maintenance There are a number of points to pay attention to when towing a trailer.Trailer load The permissible trailer load must on no account be exceeded. You can negotiate appropriately steeper inclin
es and descents if you do not make full
use of the permissible trailer load. The trailer loads specified only apply for
altitudes
up to 1 000 metres above mean sea
level. The fact that the engi
ne power output drops with increasing height due to a
lowering of air pressure and thus the abil
ity to climb, means that the towed weight
must be reduced by 10% for every further increase of 1 000 metres in height above sea level. The towed weight is the weight of the (laden) vehicle and the (laden) trailer together. One should take this into account
before driving up to higher altitudes.
The trailer and drawbar load information on the type plate of the towing device are merely test data for the towing device. The data relating to your vehicle, which is often less than this test data, can be found in your vehicle registration documents. Distribution of the load Distribute the load in the trailer in such a
way that any heavy items are located as close
as possible to the axle. Secure th
e items to preven
t them slipping.
Tyre pressure Correct the tyre inflation pressure on yo
ur vehicle for that of “fully laden”,
⇒page 215.
The inflation pressure of the tyres fitted to
the trailer adjust in accordance with the
manufacturer's recommendation. Exterior mirrors You have to have additional ex
terior mirrors fitted if you are not able to see the traffic
behind the trailer with the standard rear-view mirrors. Both exterior mirrors should be attached to folding arms. Adjust the mirrors so that they provide you with an adequate field of view to the rear.
14)In some countries the adapter is supplied with the towing device.sgg.6.book Page 190 Thursday, September 24, 2009 2:32 PM
