88Using the system

When the ignition is switched off, the seat heating and seat ventilation is also
switched off. If the engine is started again within 10 minutes, the driver's seat
heating and seat ventilation is automatically turned on again at the last set-
ting.WARNINGIf you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through
medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we rec-
ommend not to use the seat heating. There may be difficult to heal burns. If
the seat heating is used, we recommend to make regular breaks in your
journey when driving long distances, so that the body can recuperate from
the stress of the journey. Please consult your doctor, who can evaluate
your specific condition.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed to avoid damage to the seats.■Do not kneel on the seats or otherwise apply concentrated pressure to them.■
Do not turn on any of the seat heaters if seats are not occupied.
■
Do not switch on the relevant seat heating if the seats have objects attached
to or placed on them, for example a child seat, a bag, etc.
■
When there are additional protective covers or protective covers mounted on
each of the seats, do not turn the seat heating on.

down when driving (when accelerating, cornering or with an incorrect driv-
ing action) and may distract you from concentrating on the traffic – there is
the risk of an accident.■
When driving, ensure that no objects from the centre console or from oth-
er storage compartments can get into the driver's footwell. You would not
be able to brake, operate the clutch pedal or accelerate - danger of causing
an accident!
■
No objects should be placed in the storage compartments nor in the
drinks holders; the vehicle occupants could be endangered if there is sud-
den braking or the vehicle collides with something.
■
Ash, cigarettes, cigars and the like. may only be placed in the ashtray!

Storage pockets on the backs of the front seatsFig. 104
Map pockets
Read and observe on page 90 first.
The storage pockets » Fig. 104 are intended for the storage of maps, maga-
zines, etc.
WARNINGNever store heavy items in the map pockets – risk of injury!
CAUTION
Never put large objects, e.g. bottles or objects with sharp edges, in the map
pockets - risk of damaging the pockets and seat coverings.
Storage pockets on the inner sides of the front seats
Fig. 105
Storage pocket
Read and observe on page 90 first.
Depending on the equipment the storage pockets are on the inner side of the
front seat or on the inner side of the driver's seat » Fig. 105.
The storage pockets are used for storage of small and light objects, such as
mobile phones and the like.
The maximum permissible load of each of the pockets is 150 g.WARNINGDo not exceed the maximum permissible load of the pockets. Heavy objects
are not secured sufficiently – risk of injury!
CAUTION
Never put large objects into the pockets, e.g. bottles or objects with sharp
edges - risk of damaging the pockets and seat coverings.
Storage compartments for umbrella

Read and observe on page 90 first.
The storage compartments in the front doors » Fig. 106 can be used to store
an umbrella.
Note
An umbrella can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Accessories.97Transporting and practical equipment

When transporting cargo the following the 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 is stowed in the luggage compartment. To prevent this from mov-
ing 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 is to match the load.
▶ When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure the safety of the passengers
transported on the other rear seats .
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 turns on when tailgate is opened.
The warning light turns off when the tailgate is closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish
automatically after around 10 minutes.
The luggage compartment illumination using the removable lamp » page 114.WARNING■
Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. Heavy objects were not secured sufficiently – 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 case
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 of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. - these could be damaged.■
Make sure that transported objects with sharp edges do not damage the
threads of the following devices. ■Rear window heater.
■ Rear window with an integrated antenna.
■ Integrated antenna in the rear side windows.
