2011 SKODA YETI Owner's Manual

Bulbs
Changing bulbs The relevant lamp must always be switched off before a light bulb is replaced.
Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same type. The
designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something which 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 an authorised
ŠKODA Service Partner or, in exceptional cases, by calling on other professional
assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area ⇒
 page 190, Work-
ing in the engine compartment.
We recommend that you always have a small box of replacement bulbs in your ve-
hicle. You can purchase replacement bulbs from the range of the ŠKODA Original
Accessories 1)
.
The set of light bulbs can be stowed in the box in the luggage compartment.
Fitted with a xenon headlight
Change of bulbs on vehicles with Xenon lights (low beam lights, parking lights and
main beam lights) should be undertaken by a specialist garage.

WARNING
● Bulbs H7 and H4 are pressurised and may burst when changing the bulb -
risk of injury!
● It is recommended to wear gloves and safety glasses when changing a
bulb.
● Gas discharge bulbs (xenon bulbs) operate with a high voltage, professio-
nal knowledge is required - danger to life! CAUTION
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest amount
of dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth, serviette or
something similar. Note
This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is assumed
that no major complications will arise. Other light bulbs should be changed by your
specialist garage. 1)
The small box with replacement bulbs is part of the basic equipping of the vehicle in some countries. 223

Weight
Fig. 190 Type plate
The indicated unloaded weight is for orientation purposes only. It is for the basic
equipment variant of the vehicle not including special features or accessories.
The kerb weight contains a fuel tank topped up to 90 % and a driver weight of
75 kg.
It is possible to calculate the approximate loading capacity from the difference be-
tween the permissible total weight and the unloaded weight.
You need to include the following into the loading capacity:
● passengers,
● all items of luggage and other loads,
● roof loads incl. the roof rack,
● when using a trailer hitch, the corresponding trailer nose weight (max. 80 kg).
The following specifications are listed on the type plate ⇒

Fuel consumption according to the ECE standards
and EU guidelines Depending on the range of the special equipment, style of driving, traffic situa-
tion, weather influences and vehicle condition, the consumption values which in
practice result when using the vehicle can deviate from the indicated values.
Urban traffic
The consumption measurement in urban traffic begins with starting of the cold
engine. Afterwards the normal urban traffic is simulated.
Non-urban traffic
For the consumption measurement in non-urban traffic the vehicle, as in daily mo-
toring, is accelerated and braked several times in all gears. The vehicle speed
changes within the range from 0 to 120 km/h.
Combined traffic
The consumption value in the combined traffic consists of 37 % from the value for
the urban traffic and of 63 % from the value for the non-urban traffic. Note
● Please note that the information stated in the official vehicle registration
documents always takes priority.  229
