Some manual skills are required to change a bulb. For this reason, we recommend
having bulbs replaced by a specialist garage or seeking other expert help in the
event of any uncertainties.
› Switch off the ignition and all of the lights before replacing a bulb.
› Faulty bulbs must only be replaced with the same type of bulbs. The designa-
tion is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
› A stowage compartment for replacement bulbs is located in a plastic box in the
spare wheel or underneath the floor covering in the luggage compartment.
WARNING■ Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 127, Engine compartment .■
Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not sufficiently
illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficulty by other
road users.
■
The H4 bulb is pressurised and may explode during a bulb replacement - risk
of injury! We therefore recommended wearing gloves and safety glasses when changing a bulb.
CAUTIONDo not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest amountof dirt reduces the working life of the light bulb). Use a clean cloth, napkin, or sim-
ilar.
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 bulbs must be replaced by a specialist garage.■
We recommend that a box of replacement bulbs always be carried in the vehi-
cle. Replacement bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODAOriginal Accessories.
■
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage af-
ter replacing a bulb in the main or low beam.
■
In the case of a defective CD player, visit a specialist garage.

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Vehicle identification data

Dimensions
162
Vehicle-specific information depending on engine type
163
The details given in the vehicle's technical documentation always take prece-
dence over the details in the Owner's Manual.
The listed performance values were determined without performance-reducing
equipment, e.g. air conditioning system.
Vehicle identification data
Fig. 133
Vehicle data sticker/type plate
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 161.
Vehicle data sticker
The vehicle data sticker » Fig. 133 - is located under the floor in the luggage
compartment.
The vehicle data sticker contains the following data: Vehicle identification number (VIN)
Vehicle type, engine power, transmission, paint number
Engine and gearbox code
Partial vehicle description
Operating weight (in kg) Fuel consumption (in ltr./100 km) - intra-urban/extra-urban/combinedCO 2 emission levels - combined (in g/km)
The indicated positions
5
,
6
and
7
on the vehicle data sticker are only valid for
some countries.
Type plate
The type plate » Fig. 133
is visible at the bottom of the door frame after open-
ing the driver's door.
The type plate lists the following weights: Maximum permissible gross weight
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).
Engine number
The engine number (three-digit code letter and serial number) is stamped on 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.
12345678910161Technical data

The operating weight also contains the weight of the driver (75 kg), the weight ofthe operating fluids, the tool kit, and a fuel tank filled to 90 % capacity.
It is possible to calculate the approximate loading capacity from the differencebetween 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.
Fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions according to ECE standards and EU
directives
The 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 variesbetween 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 at a specialist ga-
rage.■
The fuel consumption and emission values have been determined in accordance
with rules and under conditions set out by legal or technical requirements for de-
termining operational and technical data for motor vehicles.
■
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.
