We recommend that you use ŠKODA Genuine Accessories in your vehicle. ŠKODA

we are not able to assess or warrant the parts even though in some instances
such parts may have a type approval or may have been approved by a nationally
recognised testing laboratory.
All accessory products go through a fastidious process in the area of technical de-
velopment (technical tests) and quality inspection (customer tests), and only if all tests are positive does the product become a ŠKODA Genuine Accessory.
Our ŠKODA Genuine Accessories service also provides expert advice, and profes-sional fitting at the customer's discretion.
ŠKODA service partners are liable for any ŠKODA Genuine Part defects for a peri- od of 2 years after installation or delivery in accordance with the materials defect
liability, provided that nothing else was agreed in the purchase contract or in any
other agreements. You should keep the approved warranty certificate and the bill for these components for this period of time, so that commencement of the term
may be verified.
In addition, ŠKODA Service Partners also stock a range of suitable car care prod-
ucts as well as those parts which are subject to natural wear-and-tear, such as
tyres, batteries, bulbs and wiper blades.
Note
The accessories authorized by the company ŠKODA AUTO a.s. will be offered by
the ŠKODA partners in all countries where the company ŠKODA AUTO a.s. has a

Spoiler
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 193.
If your new vehicle is fitted with a spoiler on the front bumper in combination
with the spoiler on the luggage compartment lid, the following instructions must
be adhered to.
› For safety reasons, the vehicle must only be fitted with a spoiler on the front
bumper in combination with the associated spoiler on the luggage compart-
ment lid.
› This kind of spoiler cannot be left on the front bumper either on its own, in
combination with another spoiler not on the luggage compartment lid or in combination with an unsuitable spoiler on the luggage compartment lid.
› We recommend that you consult the ŠKODA Service Partner for any repairs to or
replacement, addition or removal of spoilers.
WARNINGIf work on your vehicle's spoilers is not carried out properly, this can lead to
operational faults - risk of accident and serious injuries.

ings
on page 193.

ously impair the effectiveness of the airbag system – risk of accident and fatal
