Inspecting and replenishing
206
It is normal for the engine to consume oil. The oil consumption may be as much as 0.5
l/1 000 km depending on your style of driving and the conditions under which you
operate your vehicle. The oil consumption may be slightly hi gher than this during the
first 5 000 kilometres.
One should therefore check the oil level at regular intervals, preferably every time after
the fuel tank is filled or after driving for long stretches.
We recommend maintaining the oil level within the range - but not above this, if
the engine has been operating at high load s, for example during a lengthy motorway
trip during the summer months, towing a tr ailer or negotiating a high mountain pass.
The warning light in the instrument cluster* will indicate page 31 whether the oil
level is too low. In this case, check the oil level as soon as possible. Top up with an
appropriate quantity of oil.
Caution

The oil level must on no account extend beyond the range . Danger of damaging
the catalytic converter.

Do not continue your journey if for some reason it is not possible under the
conditions prevailing to top up with oil. Switch the engine off and obtain professional
assistance from a specialist garage, otherwise it could lead to severe engine damage.Note
Engine oil specifications page 243, “Technical Data”.Replenishing engine oil– Inspecting the engine oil level page 205.
– Unscrew the cap of the engine oil filler opening.
– Pour in a suitable grade of oil in portions of 0.5 litres page 246, “Engine oil spec-
ifications”.
– Inspect the oil level page 205.
– Carefully screw on the cap of the filler opening and push the dipstick in fully.
WARNING


risk of fire!

Read and observe the warning notes page 204, “Working in the engine
compartment” before working in the engine compartment.For the sake of the environment
The oil level must on no acco unt extend beyond the range page 205. Oil will
otherwise be drawn in through the crankc ase ventilation and may pass through the
exhaust system to atmosphere. The oil ma y combust in the catalytic converter and
damage it.Changing engine oilThe engine oil must be changed at the intervals stated in the Service schedule or
according to the service interval indicator page 18, “Service Interval Display”.

Accessories, changes and replacement of parts
222
Accessories, changes and replacement of partsAccessories and re placement partsŠkoda vehicles have been built according to the latest discoveries in safety engi-
neering. Thus one should not change the co ndition in which the vehicle was delivered
from the manufacturer without some thought.
The following guidelines should be observed when a vehicle is to be retrofitted with
accessories, have technical ch anges made to it or a part has to be replaced at some
time in the future.
Advise should always be obtained from an authorised Škoda Service Partner
before buying any accessories and before making any technical changes .

This is particularly the case when acce ssories are bought in a foreign country.

Škoda Genuine Accessories and Skoda origin al parts can be bought from author-
ised Škoda Service Partners who also professionally undertake the assembly of parts
which were purchased there.

All Škoda original accessories which are listed in the catalogue of original accesso-
ries such as spoilers, transport systems, child seats, etc., are homologized.

Radios, aerials and other electrical accessories should only be installed by author-
ised Škoda Service Partners.

The guidelines issued by Škoda Auto must be observed when making technical
changes.

This is to ensure that no technical damage occurs to the vehicle, that travelling and
operating safety are maintained and that the chnages are permissible. The specialist
garages also undertake this work professionally or refer it to another specialist garage
in special cases.
Any damage which is done caused by tech nical changes made without consulting
a Skoda dealer is exclud ed from the guarantee.
WARNING

We advise you, in your own interest, to only use Škoda Genuine Accessories
and Škoda original parts which have been expressly approved for use on your Škoda. Reliability, safety and suitabilii
ty have been established for these Škoda
original parts.

We cannot guarantee suitability of installation into your vehicle of other
products despite keeping a constant eye on market developments (also not in
the case where there is an attestation or permission can be produced).
Technical changesInterference on the electronic components and their software can lead to operational
faults. This interference can also impair no t directly affected systems because of the
networking of the electronic components. This means that the operating safety of your
vehicle can be considerably jeopardized, a greater wear of vehicle parts can occur and
finally the vehicle registration documents expire.
We trust that you will understand that Šk oda Auto cannot be liable for damage
resulting from unprofessional work.
We therefore recommend that you have all work carried out using Škoda original parts
at authorised Škoda Service Partners.
WARNING
Work or modifications on your vehicle, which have been carried out unprofes-
sionally, can cause operational faults - risk of accident!Vehicles of the group N1The vehicle of category N1 is a vehicle wh ich is designed and manufactured for trans-
porting loads with a maximum weight of 3.5 tonnes.

Engine oil specificationsThe grade of engine oil should be se lected in accordance with precise
specifications.The engine of your vehicle has been factory-filled with a high-grade oil which you can
use throughout the year - except in extreme climatic regions.
You can mix various oils together with each other when refilling with oil. This does not,
however, apply for models with flexible service intervals (QG1).
Engine oils are, of course, undergoing co ntinuous further development. Thus the
information stated in this Owner's Manual is only correct at the time of publication.
Specialist garages are informed by Škoda Auto about current changes. We recommend
having this oil change undertaken by a specialist garage.
The specifications (VW standards) stated in the following must be indicated separately
or together with other specifications on the bottle.
Engine oil specifications for models with flexible service intervals (QG1) Engine oil specifications for vehicles with fixed service intervals (QG2)
If the oils specified above are not available, oils according to ACEA A2 or ACEA A3 can
be used once for refilling. ACEA A3.
If the oils specified above are not available, oils according to ACEA B3 or ACEA B4 can
be used once for refilling.
Caution
Only the above-mentioned oils may be used on vehicles with flexible service intervals
(QG1). We recommend always refilling with oi
l of the same specification since this will
maintain the properties of the oil. In exce ptional cases, you must top up only once
engine oil complying with Specification VW 50 2 00 (only for petrol engines) or Specifi-
cation VW 505 01 (only for diesel engines) to maximum 0.5 litres. You must not use
other engine oils - risk of engine damage!
