2012 SKODA OCTAVIA Owner's Manual

Technical data
Technical data
Introductory information
The details given in the vehicle's technical documentation always take prece-
dence over the details in the Owner's Manual. It can be found in the official vehi-
cle registration documents or you can find out from a ŠKODA Partner what engine
the vehicle is fitted with.
The listed performance values were determined without performance-reducing
equipment, e.g. air conditioning system.

Vehicle identification data
Fig. 185
Vehicle data sticker/type plate
Vehicle data sticker
The vehicle data sticker » Fig. 185 is located on the floor of the luggage compart-
ment and is also stated in the service schedule.
The vehicle data sticker contains the following data: Vehicle identification number (VIN)
Vehicle type
Gearbox code/paint number/interior equipment/engine output/engine code Partial vehicle description
1234Operating weight (in kg)
Fuel consumption (in ltr./100 km) - intra-urban/extra-urban/combined
CO 2 emission levels - combined (in g/km)
Type plate
The type plate » Fig. 185 is located on the lower part of the column between the
front and rear doors on the driver's side.
The type plate lists the following weights: Maximum permissible gross weight
Maximum permissible towed weight (towing vehicle and trailer)
Maximum permissible front axle load
Maximum permissible rear axle load
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
The vehicle identification number - VIN (vehicle body number) is stamped into the engine compartment on the right hand suspension strut dome. This number is al-
so located on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen (together
with a VIN bar code).
The VIN number can also be diplayed in the Infotainment » Bedienungsanleitung
Infotainment, chapter Setting vehicle systems (CAR button) .
Engine number
The engine number is stamped into the engine block.
Operating weight
The specified operating weight is for orientation purposes only. This value repre- sents the minimum operating weight without additional weight-increasing equip- ment such as air conditioning system, spare wheel, or trailer hitch.
The operating weight also contains the weight of the driver (75 kg), the weight of
the operating fluids, the tool kit, and a fuel tank filled to 90 % capacity.
It is possible to calculate the approximate loading capacity from the difference
between the permissible total weight and the operating weight »
.
The payload consists of the following components: › Passengers
› All items of luggage and other loads
› Roof load including roof rack system
› Equipment not included in the operating weight
› Trailer drawbar load when towing a trailer (max. 75 kg).

567891011207Technical data

Fuel consumption according to the ECE standards and EU guidelinesThe measurement of the intra-urban cycle begins with a cold start of the engine.
Afterwards standard urban driving is simulated.
In the extra-urban driving cycle, the vehicle is accelerated and decelerated in all
gears, corresponding to daily routine driving conditions. The driving speed varies
between 0 and -120 km/h.
The calculation of the combined fuel consumption considers a weighting of about 37 % for the intra-urban cycle and 63 % for the extra-urban cycle.WARNINGDo not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights - risk of accident
and damage!
Note
■ If required, you can find out the precise weight of your vehicle by contacting a
ŠKODA Partner.■
Depending on the range of equipment, style of driving, traffic situation, weather
influences and vehicle condition, consumption values may deviate from the indi- cated values.

Specifications and engine oil capacity
The engine has been factory-filled with a high-grade oil that can be use through-
out the year - except in extreme climate zones.
The engine oils are undergoing continuous further development. Thus the infor-
mation stated in this Owner's Manual is only correct at the time of publication.
ŠKODA Partners are informed about the latest changes by ŠKODA. We therefore
recommend that the oil change is completed by a ŠKODA Partner.
The specifications (VW standards) stated in the following can be indicated sepa-rately or together with other specifications on the bottle.
The oil capacities include oil filter change. Check the oil level when filling; do notover fill. The oil level must be between the markings » page 172.

an emergency. To prevent damage to the engine, a max. 0.5 l only of the follow-
ing engine oils may be used until the next oil change: ■ For petrol engine models: ACEA A3/ACEA B4 or API SN/API SM;
■ For diesel engine models: ACEA C3 or API CJ-4.
Note
■Before a long drive we recommend that you purchase and carry with you engine
oil which complies with the specification for your vehicle.■
We recommend that you use oils from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
