The on-board literature
The on-board literature for your vehicle consists of this “ Owner's Manual” as well
as a “ Service schedule ” and the “Help on the road ” brochure.
Depending on the vehicle model and equipment, other additional operating man-
uals and instructions may be provided (e.g. an operating manual for the Infotain-
ment Radio).
If one of the publications listed above is missing, please contact a ŠKODA Partner.
The Owner's Manual
These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without
identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in this Owner's manual.
The level of equipment of your vehicle refers to your purchase contract of the ve-
hicle. For more information, contact your local ŠKODA retailer.
This owner's manual describes a wide range of electronic functions and systems.
Information about how to configure these electronic functions and systems can
be found in the operating instructions to Infotainment Radio and/or the Infotain-
ment navigation system.
The illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only inten-
ded for general information.
The Service Plan:
› includes vehicle data including information on service work performed;
› is a record of services provided;
› is provided for entries relating to the mobility warranty (valid only for some
countries);
› serves as warranty certificate of the ŠKODA dealer.
The service records are one of the conditions for warranty claims.
Please always present the Service schedule when you take your car to a ŠKODA
specialist garage.
If the Service Schedule is missing or worn, please contact the ŠKODA specialist
garage that regularly services your car. You will receive a duplicate, in which the
previously carried out service work is confirmed by the ŠKODA specialist garage.The Help on the Road brochure
The brochure contains the important emergency telephone numbers as well as
telephone numbers and contact addresses of ŠKODA Partners in different coun-
tries.

Resetting Service Interval Display
After resetting the display with flexible service intervals, the displayed data is the
same as that for a vehicle with fixed service intervals. We therefore recommend
that the Service Interval Display is only reset by a ŠKODA Partner, who will reset
the display with a vehicle system tester.
The ŠKODA Partner:
› Resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection
› Adds an entry to the Service Schedule
› Affixes the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of
the dashboard on the driver's side.
It can be reset with the button 6
» Fig. 2 on page 9.
› Switch off the ignition.
› Press the button
6
and keep it pressed down.
› Switch on the ignition.
› Release the button
6
and press again.
CAUTION
We recommend that you do not reset the Service Interval Display yourself as this
can result in the incorrect setting of the Service Interval Display, which can also
cause possible problems with the operation of your vehicle.
Note
■ Information is retained in the Service Interval Display even after the vehicle bat-
tery is disconnected.■
If the instrument cluster is exchanged after a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by a ŠKODA specialist garage.

Warning lights
Auto Check Control
Certain functions and conditions of individual vehicle systems are checked contin-
uously when the ignition is switched on.
Error messages and/or other information are displayed in the instrument cluster display. The messages are displayed at the same time as the symbols in the dis-
play and/or the warning lights » page 12.
Depending on the meaning, the icon or together with the message appears
in the bar with the warning lights

» Fig. 2 on page 9.
SymbolDescriptionWarningDanger
While the operational faults remain unrectified, the messages are always indica-
ted again. After they are displayed for the first time, the symbols
or
continue
to be indicated without any extra messages for the driver.
WARNINGIf you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe dis-
tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard warning
light system » page 49. The warning triangle must be set up at the prescri-
bed distance - observe the national legal provisions when doing so.
Overview
The warning lights show the following functions/faults and may be accompanied by audible signals.
When switching on the ignition, some indicator lights illuminate briefly as a func-
tion test. These indicator lights will disappear several seconds after the vehicle is
started.
12Using the system
We recommend maintaining the oil level within the range A, but not above , if
the engine has been operating at high loads, for example, during a lengthy motor-
way trip during the summer months, towing a trailer or negotiating a high moun- tain pass.
The warning light in the instrument cluster will indicate whether the oil level is too low » page 15 . Check the oil level using the dipstick as soon as possible. Add
oil accordingly.WARNINGDo not continue your journey if for some reason it is not possible to top up
the engine oil under the prevailing conditions! Switch off the engine and seek
assistance from a ŠKODA specialist garage.
CAUTION
The oil level must on no account extend beyond the range A » Fig. 149 - Risk of
damaging the exhaust system!
Replenishing the engine oil
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 169.
›
Check the engine oil level » page 172.
›
Unscrew the cap of the engine oil filler opening » Fig. 148 on page 172.
›
Replenish the oil in portions of 0.5 litres in accordance with the correct specifi-
cations » page 209 .
›
Check the oil level » page 172.
›
Carefully screw on the oil filler opening cap and push the dipstick in fully.
Changing engine oil
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 169.
The engine oil must be changed at the intervals stated in the Service schedule or
according to the service interval indicator » page 11.
CAUTION
Do not pour any additives into the engine oil - Risk of serious engine damage!
Damage, which results from such product, are excluded from the warranty.
Note
If your skin has come into contact with oil, it must be washed thoroughly.
Coolant
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 169.
The coolant consists of water with a concentration of coolant additive. This mix-
ture guarantees antifreeze protection, protects the cooling/heater system
against corrosion and prevents the formation of scale.
Vehicles exported to countries with a mild climate are already factory-filled with
a coolant which offers antifreeze protection down to about -25 ℃. In these coun-
tries the concentration of coolant additive should be at least 40 %.
Vehicles exported to countries with a cold climate are already factory-filled with a
coolant which offers antifreeze protection down to about -35 °C. In these coun-
tries the concentration of coolant additive should be at least 50 %.
If a higher concentration of antifreeze is required for climatic reasons, the amount
of coolant additive can only be increased up to a maximum of 60 % (antifreeze
protection down to approx. -40 °C).
When refilling, only use the same antifreeze written on the antifreeze expansion tank » Fig. 150 on page 174.
