CAUTION■Natural leather /Faux leather / Alcantara ®
/ material
■ In lengthy periods in bright sunlight, it might be sensible to cover these
materials in order to avoid bleaching. ■ Fresh stains (e.g. from pens, lipstick, shoe polish etc.) should be removed as
soon as possible.
■ Ensure that no part of the leather is soaked through during cleaning and
that no water gets into the seams.
■ Do not clean the roof panelling with a brush – risk of damage to the surface
of the panelling.
■ Do not use solvents, floor wax, shoe cream, stain remover or similar agents
on Alcantara ®
seat upholstery.
■ Some clothing fabrics (e.g. dark denim) do not have sufficient colour fast-
ness - this may leave evident marks on upholstery. This is not a defect in the
fabric.
■ Sharp objects on garments (e.g. zips, rivets, sharp- edged belts) can dam-
age the upholstery fabrics in the vehicle. Such damage cannot be subse-
quently recognised as a justified complaint.■
Plastic parts ■ Do not attach scents or air fresheners to the dashboard – there is a risk of
damage to the dashboard.
■
Windows
■ Do not attach any stickers to the filaments or glass antenna - there is risk
of damage.
■
Covers of electrically heated seats
■ Do not clean with water or other liquids - there is a risk of damage to the
heating system.
■ Do not dry by switching on the heating.
■
Seat belts
■ Allow to dry before rolling up the seat belts.

During vehicle use, the leather and Alcantara ®

Introduction
Fig. 325
Stickers with prescribed fuel
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Petrol and diesel refuelling
275
Unleaded petrol
275
Diesel fuel
276
The correct fuel for your vehicle is specified on the inside of the fuel filler flap
» Fig. 325 .
The fuel capacity for vehicles with front wheel drive is about 58 litres, and for
vehicles with four-wheel drive about 60 litres, with about 7 litres as reserve.
WARNINGFuel vapours are explosive - can be fatal!
CAUTION
■
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! The irregular supply of
fuel can cause misfiring, which can result in damage to parts of the engine and
the exhaust system.■
Immediately remove any fuel that has spilled onto the vehicle's paintwork –
risk of paint damage.
■
If you would like to operate your vehicle in countries other than those with
its intended weather conditions, please contact a ŠKODA Partner. They will tell
you whether the fuel specified by the manufacturer is offered in the accompa-
nying country or whether it is permissible to operate the vehicle with another
fuel.
274General Maintenance
›To
remove the fire extinguisher, release the safety catches on the two belts
in the direction of arrow » Fig. 340 and remove the fire extinguisher.›
To secure , place the fire extinguisher back in the mount and secure with the
belts.
The Owner´s Manual is fitted next to the fire extinguisher.
Pay attention to the expiration date of the fire extinguisher. After this date,
the correct function of the device is not guaranteed.
WARNINGAlways properly secure the fire extinguisher, there is a risk of injury in the
event of sudden braking or a vehicle collision.
Vehicle tool kit
Fig. 341
Vehicle tool kit
The box containing the vehicle tool kit is located in the storage compartment
for the spare wheel, and can be secured with a tape depending on the equip-
ment fitted.
Depending on the vehicle configuration, it may not contain all the compo-
nents listed in the on-board tool kit.
Adapter for anti-theft wheel bolts
Towing eye
Clamps for removing the wheel trims
Jack with sign
Crank for the jack
12345Wheel wrench
Extraction pliers for the wheel bolt caps
Breakdown kitWARNING■ The factory-supplied lifting jack is only intended for your model of vehicle.
Under no circumstances attempt to lift other vehicles or loads with this –
there is a risk of injury.■
Always securely stow the tool in the respective box and make sure that it
is secured to the spare wheel using the tape - there is a risk of injury in the
event of sudden braking or a vehicle collision.
CAUTION
Screw the jack back to its starting position prior to putting it back in its box -
Otherwise, there is a risk of damage to the box.
Note
The declaration of conformity is included with the jack or the log folder.
Changing a wheel
Preliminary work
For safety's sake, the following instructions must be observed before
changing a wheel on the road.
›
As far as possible, park the vehicle far away from the traffic flow - find a
place with a flat and firm surface.
›
Switch off the engine.
›
For vehicles with manual transmission , select 1st gear.
›
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 changed.
›
Uncouple any trailers.
678291Emergency equipment and self-help
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.

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.
