on the dashboard in the driver's field of
view.
Once a tyre inflation pressure of 2.0 – 2.5 bar is achieved, continue the journey
at a maximum speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
WARNING■ If it is not possible to inflate the tyre to at least. 2.0 bar, the damage is
too great. The sealing agent cannot be used to seal the tyre.  Stop driv-
ing! Seek help from a specialist garage.■
The tyre inflation hose and air compressor may get hot as the tyre is be-
ing inflated – risk of burning.
CAUTIONSwitch off the air compressor after running 6 minutes at the most – risk of
overheating! Allow the air compressor to cool a few minutes before switching
it on again.
Information for driving with repaired tyres
Read and observe
on page 296 first.
The inflation pressure of the repaired tyre must be checked after driving for 10minutes.
If the tyre inflation pressure is 1.3 bar or less
›
The tyre cannot be properly sealed with the breakdown kit. 
Do not drive
the vehicle! Seek help from a specialist garage.
If the tyre inflation pressure is 1.3 bar or more
›
Set the tyre pressure back to the correct value » page 286.
›
Continue driving carefully to the nearest specialist garage at a maximum
speed of 80 km/h (50 mph).
WARNINGA tyre filled with sealant has the same driving characteristics as a standard
tyre. The following guidelines must be observed.■
Do not drive faster than 80 km/h (50 mph).
■
Avoid accelerating at full throttle, sharp braking and fast cornering.

297Emergency equipment and self-help

Conditions for towing.Cars with automatic gearboxes must not be towed with the rear wheels
raised - there is a risk of gearbox damage!
If the gearbox has no oil, your vehicle must be towed with the front axle
raised clear of the ground or on a breakdown vehicle or trailer.
The maximum towing speed is 50 km/h.
The vehicle must be transported on a special breakdown vehicle or trailer
if it is not possible to tow in the vehicle in the way described or if the tow-
ing distance is greater than 50 km.
Driver of the tow vehicle›
On vehicles with manual transmission , engage gear slowly when starting.
›
On vehicles with automatic transmission , accelerate with particular care.
›
Only then approach correctly when the rope is taut.
Driver of the towed vehicle
›
If possible, the vehicle should be towed with the engine running. Operate the
brake booster and power steering only if the engine is running, otherwise
the brake pedal must be depressed more strongly and more power has to be
directed to the steering.
›
If it is not possible to start the engine, switch on the ignition so that the
steering wheel is not locked and so that the turn signal lights, windscreen
wipers and windscreen washer system can be used.
›
Take the vehicle out of gear or move the selector lever into position N if the
vehicle is fitted with an automatic gearbox.
›
Always keep the tow rope taut during the towing procedure.
WARNING■ Wound tow ropes must not be used for towing » Fig. 351-  , the towing
eye may unscrew out of the vehicle - risk of accident.■
Ensure tow rope is not twisted - risk of accident.
CAUTION
■ Do not tow-start the engine – risk of damaging the engine! The battery from
another vehicle can be used as a jump-start aid » page 297, Jump-starting .■
In the case of off-road towing manoeuvres, for both vehicles there is the risk
that the fastening parts could be overloaded and damaged.
Note
We recommend that you use the tow rope from ŠKODA Original Accessories.Front towing eyeFig. 352
