engine is running or when no key was found in the vehicle. This can occur if the
key is outside the vehicle, the battery in the key is discharged, the key is defec-

WARNING (Continued)■Bulbs H7 H8 and H15 are pressurised and may burst when changing the bulb
- risk of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety glasses
when changing a bulb.■
Gas discharge bulbs (xenon bulbs) operate with a high voltage, professional
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, nap-
kin, or similar.
Note
■ This Owner's Manual only describes the replacement of bulbs where it is possi-
ble to replace the bulbs on your own without any complications arising. Other light bulbs should be changed by a ŠKODA specialist garage.■
We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs be always carried in the vehi-
cle. Replacement bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODAOriginal Accessories.
■
We recommend that the headlight settings are checked by a ŠKODA specialist
garage after replacing a bulb in the main or low beam, or the fog lights.
■
Gas discharge bulbs and LED diodes are replaced by a ŠKODA specialist garage.
