Releasing the button causes the window to halt immediately.
The window lift mechanism is protected against overheating. Repeated open-
ing and closing of the window can cause this mechanism to overheat. If this
happens, it will not be possible to operate the window for a short time. You
will be able to operate the window again as soon as the overheating protec-
tion has cooled down.
CAUTION
■ Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric
windows.■
Always close the windows before disconnecting the battery.

Unless otherwise stated, the lights only work when the ignition is on.
The arrangement of the controls right-hand drive models may differ from the layout shown in » Fig. 40 on page 47 . The symbols which mark the positions
of the controls are identical.
WARNING■ The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the
lights.■
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by oth-
er oncoming traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is
dark or if visibility is poor.
Note
■ The instruments are also illuminated when the side light or low beam light is
switched on.■
The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although
the headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist
has no influence on the life of the lighting system.

WARNING■ In occupied rear seats make sure that the respective seat backrests are
properly engaged.■
After folding back the seat backrest, the seat belts and belt buckles must
be ready for use.
■
The seat backrests must be securely locked in position so that no objects
in the luggage compartment can slide into the passenger compartment on
sudden braking – risk of injury.
CAUTION
Ensure that the seat belts are not damaged when operating the seat backr-
ests. Under no circumstances must the rear seat belts be jammed by the fol-
ded back seat backrests.57Seats and head restraints

Net pockets on the front seat restFig. 72
Meshed pocket
Read and observe on page 58 first.
The net pockets are used for storage of small and light objects, such as mobilephones and the like.
The net pockets are located on the inner sides of the front seat backrests
» Fig. 72 .
The maximum permissible load of the net pockets is 150 g.
WARNINGDo not exceed the maximum permissible load of the meshed pockets.
Heavy objects are not secured sufficiently – risk of injury!
CAUTION
Do not put large objects, e.g. bottles or objects with sharp edges into the net
pockets - risk of damaging the pockets and seat coverings.

When transporting cargo the following instructions must be adhered to
▶ When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to
the shift in centre-of-gravity. The speed and style of driving must be adjus-
ted accordingly.
▶ The cargo should be stowed in the luggage compartment. To prevent it from
moving it should be secured with suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes
or secured with fixing nets.
▶ Distribute loads as evenly as possible.
▶ Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
▶ The transported items must be stowed in such a way that no objects are able
to slip forward on sudden driving or braking manoeuvres – risk of injury!
▶ Tyre pressure should be adjusted for the load.
▶ When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding one of the rear seats forward, care should be taken to en-
sure the safety of passengers transported on the other rear seat.
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic
energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an object
with a weight of 4.5 kg produces an energy, which corresponds to 20 times its
own weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg “ ”. 

Luggage compartment light
The warning light illuminates when boot is opened.
The warning light turns off when the boot is closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish
automatically after around 10 minutes.WARNING■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load for the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. If heavy objects have not been suitably secured – risk of
injury!■
If the cargo is tied down with unsuitable or damaged lashing straps, inju-
ries can occur in the event of braking manoeuvres or accidents.
■
Loose cargo can be thrown forward during a sudden manoeuvre or in the
event of an accident and can injure the occupants or other road users.
■
Loose cargo could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of
death!
CAUTION
■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load for the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. - these could become damaged.■
Please ensure that the heating elements for the rear window heater are not
damaged as a result of abrasive objects.
Lashing eyes

Lashing
Read and observe and on page 65 first.
Fixing eyes are located on the sides of the loading area for lashing the goods to be loaded » Fig. 74.
The maximum permissible static load for each lashing points is 350 kg.
Bag hooksFig. 75
Bag hooks
Read and observe and on page 65 first.
Hooks for attaching small items of luggage, such as bags etc., are provided on
both sides of the luggage compartment. » Fig. 75.
An item of luggage weighing up to 1.5 kg can be attached to the hook.
WARNINGNever use the bag hooks for lashing loaded goods. The bag hooks may tear
off during sudden braking manoeuvres or in the event of an accident.

73WARNINGYou should, first and foremost, concentrate fully on driving at all times! As
the driver you are fully responsible for the operation of your vehicle. Use
the telephone system only to such an extent that you are in full control of
your vehicle at any time.
Mobile phones and two-way radio systems
Read and observe
on page 72 first.
ŠKODA permits the operation of mobile phones and two-way radio systems
with a professionally installed external aerial and a maximum transmission
power of up to 10 watts.
Please consult a ŠKODA Partner for information about the possibility of instal-
ling and operating mobile phones and two-way radio systems with a transmis-
sion power of more than 10 W.
Operating mobile phones or two-way radio systems may interfere with the
functionality of the electronic systems in your vehicle.
The possible reasons for this are. ▶ no external aerial.
▶ external aerial incorrectly installed.
▶ transmission power greater than 10 watts.
WARNING■ If a mobile phone or a two-way radio system is operated in a vehicle with-
out an external aerial or an external aerial which has been installed incor-
rectly, this can increase the strength of the electromagnetic field inside the
vehicle.■
Two-way radio systems, mobile phones or mounts must not be installed
on airbag covers or within the immediate deployment range of the airbags.
■
Never leave a mobile phone on a seat, on the dash panel or in another
area from which it can be thrown during a sudden braking manoeuvre, an
accident or a collision — risk of injury.
Note
■ We recommend that the installation of mobile phones and two-way radio
systems in a vehicle be carried out by a specialist garage.■
The range of the Bluetooth ®
connection to the hands-free system is restric-
ted to the vehicle interior. The range is dependent on local factors, e.g. obsta-
cles between the devices and mutual interferences with other devices. If your
mobile phone is in a jacket pocket, for example, this can lead to difficulties
when establishing a connection with the hands-free-system or transferring
data.
