Changing a wheel›
Take out the emergency or spare wheel » page 292.
›
Remove the full wheel trim » page 293 or caps » page 294 .
›
Loosen the wheel bolts » page 294 » .
›
Jack up the vehicle » page 295 until the wheel that needs changing is clear of
the ground.
›
Unscrew the wheel bolts and place them on a clean surface (cloth, paper,
etc.).
›
Remove the wheel carefully.
›
Attach the spare wheel and slightly screw on the wheel bolts.
›
Lower the vehicle.
›
Tighten the wheel bolts opposite each other using the wheel wrench (“alter- nating crosswise”) » page 294.
›
Replace the wheel trim » page 293and the caps » page 294.
When fitting a wheel with unidirectional tyres, ensure that the direction of ro-
tation is correct » page 286.
All bolts must be clean and must turn easily. If the screws are corroded and dif-
ficult to move, then these must be replaced.
WARNING■ Undo the wheel bolts just a little (about one turn) while the vehicle is not
jacked up. Otherwise, the wheel could come off and fall down – there is a
risk of injury.■
Under no circumstances grease or oil the wheel bolts - risk of accident!
Subsequent steps
After changing the wheel, the following work must be carried out.
›
Stow the replaced wheel in the well under the floor covering of the luggage
compartment and secure with a locking screw.
›
Stow the tool kit in the space provided and secure using the band.
›
Check and, if necessary, adjust the tyre pressure on the assembled wheel,
and, for vehicle with tyre pressure monitoring, save the tyre pressure values
in the system » page 260.
›
Have the tightening torque of the wheel bolts checked with a torque wrench
as soon as possible. The prescribed tightening torque is 140 Nm.
Replace the damaged tyre. It is not recommended to repair the tyre.
WARNINGA tightening torque which is too high can damage the bolts and threads
and this can result in permanent deformation of the contact surfaces on
the rim. Too low tightening torque, the wheels may fall off while driving -
risk of an accident. Drive cautiously and only at a moderate speed until the
tightening torque has been checked.

Full wheel trim
Removing the trim
›
The clamps for removing the full wheel trims hang on the edge of the full
wheel trim.
›
Push the wheel wrench through the clamp, support on the tyre and pull off
the wheel trim.
Installing the trim
›
Press the wheel trim onto the wheel rim at the designated valve opening.
›
Then press the trim into the wheel rim until its entire circumference locks
correctly in place.
The back of the wheel trim supplied by the factory or from the ŠKODA Original
Accessories shows the position for the anti-theft wheel bolt. When using the
anti-theft wheel bolt, this is to be fitted in this point »
.
WARNINGWe recommend that you use hub caps from ŠKODA Original Accessories. A
sufficient air supply may not be able to be guaranteed with other wheel
trims to cool the braking system - there is a risk of an accident.
CAUTION
■ If the wheel trim is set outside the position marked for the anti-theft wheel
bolt, there is a risk of damaging the wheel trim.■
Use only manual pressure and do not hit the full wheel trim – there is a risk
of damaging the trim.

For vehicles with automatic transmission , place the selector lever in the P
position.
›
Switch on the parking brake.
›
Position the hazard warning system and the warning triangle at the prescri-
bed distance.
›
All the occupants should get out of the vehicle. The passengers should not
stand on the road (instead they should remain behind a crash barrier, for in-
stance) while the wheel is being repaired.
›
Uncouple any trailers.
Sealing and inflating tyres
Read and observe
on page 296 first.
Sealing
›
Unscrew the valve cap from the damaged tyre.
›
Insert the valve remover

» Fig. 349 on page 296 on the valve insert, so
that the valve insert fits into the slot of the valve remover.
›
Unscrew the valve insert and lay it on a clean surface (e.g. cloth, paper etc.).
›
Forcefully shake bottle
10
several times.

with the bottom facing upwards and fill all of the sealing
agent from the tyre inflator bottle into the tyre.
›
Remove the filler plug from the tyre valve.
›
Screw in the valve insert using the valve remover

›
For vehicles with manual transmission , set the lever in the neutral position.
›
On vehicles with automatic transmission , place the selector lever in the P
position.
›
Start the engine.
›
Plug the connector
6
into 12 volt socket » page 97.
›
Switch on the air compressor with the ON and OFF switch
9
.
›
Once a tyre inflation pressure of 2.0-2.5 bar is reached, turn off the air com-
pressor. Maximum run time of 6 minutes » .
›
If you cannot reach an air pressure of 2.0 - 2.5 bar, unscrew the tyre inflation
hose
7
from the tyre valve.
›
Drive the vehicle approx. 10 metres forwards or backwards to allow the seal-
ing agent to “distribute” in the tyre.
›
Firmly screw the tyre inflation hose
7
back onto the tyre valve and repeat
the inflation process.
›
Stick the corresponding sticker
1
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.
