31Information system
The intervention of the wizard is cancelled when you press the pedal and re-
sumed after the pedal is released again.
The hill descent assistant is automatically engaged under the following condi-tions.
The OFF ROAD mode is switched on and the warning light lights up in the
instrument cluster.
The vehicle engine is running and either the 1st, 2nd or 3rd gear, reverse gear
or no gear is engaged and the selector lever is in position R, N, D, S or Tip- tronic.
The downhill gradient is at least 10 % (when driving over sleepers, the limit can briefly drop to 8 %).
Neither the accelerator nor the brake pedal is operated.
It is however a requirement that the vehicle has sufficient grip on the soil. The Downhill Drive Support cannot properly fulfil its function on slushy soil due to
physical reasons (e.g. ice or mud).
For vehicles with manual transmission, the speed is maintained as follows.
› 1st gear - approx. 8 1)
- 30 km/h
› 2nd gear - approx. 13 1)
- 30 km/h
› 3rd gear - approx. 22 1)
- 30 km/h
› Reverse gear - approx. 9 1)
- 30 km/h
› Neutral for driving forwards - as well as driving backwards - approx. 2 - 30 km/h
On vehicles with automatic transmission, the speed is maintained as follows.
› Position D, S, R or Tiptronic (for 1st, 2nd, 3rd gear - approx. 2 - 30 km/h
› Neutral for driving forwards - as well as reversing - approx. 2 - 30 km/h
Start-Off Assist
The assistant supports the driver when starting eg on a steep slope. When the
driver presses the accelerator, the maximum engine speed is electronically limited so that a gentle approach is possible.
The overspeed trip unit is automatically deactivated after terminating the start-
up procedure.
As part of the Assist System, the accelerator pedal is adapted in its characteristics for an easier start-off on slippery and loose soil.ABS OFF ROAD
The ABS OFF ROAD supports the driver when braking on an unpaved surface such
as gravel, snow, etc.
The system generated by a controlled locking of the wheels braked wheel before a “wedge” of piled material, which shortens the braking distance.
The system is only available, if the front wheels are in the straight-ahead posi-
tion.
The system operates at speeds of up to 50 km/h.
TCS OFF ROAD
The ASR OFF ROAD makes starting and driving on an unpaved surface easier as it partially allows wheel-spin.
EDL OFF ROAD
The EDS supports OFF ROAD vehicle traction when driving on a surface with dif- ferent grip under the drive wheels or when driving over bumps.
A spinning wheel or wheels are braked earlier and with more force than with the
intervention of the standard EDS system.
Note
■ During an active intervention of the Downhill Drive Support, the brake lights do
not light up.■
When disabled, ASR » Fig. 116 on page 136 the OFF ROAD mode works without
the support of the ASR OFF ROAD.

The service interval display in the instrument cluster will remind you to carry out
every service stipulated by the manufacturer at the right time in order to prevent you from forgetting any.
Timely and proper performance of servicing works is one of the requirements for the settlement of potential warranty claims.
The completion of services can be verified by the validated service certificate andthe corresponding receipts.
The specified service intervals are tailored to normal operating conditions.
In the case of difficult operating conditions, it is necessary to have some service
work performed before the date of the next service or between the specified
service intervals. This applies mainly to the cleaning or the replacement of the air
filter insert in regions with heavy dust pollution as well as checking and replacing
the toothed belt, but also to vehicles with diesel particle filters, which can put
greater strain on the engine oil.
Difficult operating conditions
› Sulphur-containing diesel fuel.
› Frequent short trips.
› Longer periods of engine idling (e.g. taxis).
› Operation in areas with heavy dust pollution.
› Frequent trailer operation.
›
Predominantly stop-and-go traffic as is often the case in city driving, for exam-
ple.
› Operation predominantly during winter.
A service consultant at the specialist garage will tell you whether the operating conditions of your vehicle may make it necessary for service work to be carried
out between the normal service intervals.
Different service charges may apply from the particular scope of work required,
depending on the vehicle type and equipment and the status of your vehicle.
Note
■ The customer is responsible for covering the cost of all services including
changing or replenishing the oil, even during the warranty period, unless stated otherwise in the ŠKODA AUTO a.s. warranty terms or other agreements.■
You will be informed about the current service scopes for the particular service
work by the specialist garage.
