 Diesel particle filter (diesel)
Read and observe
on page 31 first.
The diesel particulate filter separates the soot particles from the exhaust. The
soot particles collect in the diesel particulate filter where they are burnt on a
regular basis.
 illuminates – the filter is clogged with soot.
To clean the filter, and where traffic conditions permit »
, drive as follows for
at least 15 minutes or until the indicator light 
goes out.
4. or 5. gear engaged (automatic gearbox: S position).
Vehicle speed at least 70 km/h.
Engine speed between 1800-2500 rpm.
If the filter is properly cleaned, the warning light  extinguishes.
If the filter is not properly cleaned, the warning light  does not go out and
the warning light  begins to flash.
▶ Continued driving is possible with appropriate caution. Seek assistance from
a specialist garage immediately.
WARNING■ Always adjust the speed and driving style to the actual weather, road, ter-
rain and traffic conditions.■
The diesel particulate filter reaches very high temperatures - there is a
fire hazard and serious injury could be caused. Therefore, never stop the
vehicle at places where the underside of your vehicle can come into contact
with flammable materials, such as dry grass, undergrowth, leaves, spilled
fuel or the like.
CAUTION
■ As long as the warning light  illuminates, one must take into account an
increased fuel consumption and a power reduction of the engine.■
Using diesel fuel with an increased sulphur content can considerably reduce
the life of the diesel particle filter. A ŠKODA partner will be able to tell you
which countries use diesel fuel with a high sulphur content.
Note
We encourage you to avoid constant short journeys. This will improve the com-
bustion process of the soot particles in the diesel particulate filter.35Instruments and Indicator Lights

Tips on economical driving
108
Running in the engine
During the first 1 500 km, the driving style is decisive for successful the run-
ning in process is.
During the first 1 000 km , the engine should not be charged with more than
3/4 of the maximum permitted engine revs and without the trailer.
From about 1 000 to 1 500 km , the engine can be pushed up to the maximum
permitted engine speed.
Tips on economical driving
Fuel consumption depends on the driving style, road and weather conditions,
and similar such factors.
For an economical driving style, the following instructions must be observed. ▶ Avoid unnecessary acceleration and braking.
▶ Engage the recommended gear » page 39.
▶ Avoid full throttle and high speeds.
▶ Reduce idling.
▶ Avoid short distances.
▶ Ensure the correct tyre inflation pressure is maintained » page 151.
▶ Avoid unnecessary ballast.
▶ Remove the roof rack before driving if it is not needed.
▶ Only turn on electrical consumers (e.g. seat heating) for as long as necessary.
▶ Briefly ventilate before turning on the cooling system, do not use the cooling
system with the windows open.
▶ Do not leave windows open at high speeds.

Unleaded petrolRead and observe
and on page 139 first.
The correct fuel for your vehicle is specified on the inside of the fuel filler
flap » Fig. 154 on page 139 .
The vehicle can only operate with unleaded petrol that meets standard EN
228 1)
, and contains maximum 10% bioethanol (E10).
Unleaded petrol 95/91 or 92 or 93 RON/ROZ
We recommend using petrol 95 ROZ.
Optionally, the petrol 91 ,92 or. 93 ROZ can be used (slight power loss, a slight-
ly increased fuel consumption).
Specified petrol is unleaded, min. 95 RON / ROZ
Use petrol min. 95 ROZ.
In an emergency , 91 . 92 or 93 ROZ petrol can be used (slight loss of power,
slightly increased fuel consumption) »
.
Prescribed petrol 98/(95) RON / ROZ
We recommend using petrol 98 ROZ.
Optionally, petrol 95 ROZ can be used (slight power loss, a slightly increased
fuel consumption).
In an emergency , 91 . 92 or 93 ROZ petrol can be used (slight loss of power,
slightly increased fuel consumption) »
.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed, otherwise there is a risk of dam-
age to the engine and to the exhaust system.■
When petrol with a lower than the prescribed octane is used, only continue
driving at mid-range engine speeds and with minimal strain on the engine. Re-
fuel using petrol of the prescribed octane number as soon as possible.
■ Lower than 91 octane petrol should not be used, even in an emergency!■If a fuel other than unleaded fuel which complies to the above mentioned
standards (e.g. leaded petrol) is put in the tank by mistake, do not start the en-
gine or switch on the ignition.
CAUTION
Petrol additives (additives)■Unleaded petrol complying with the EN 228 standard 1)
meets all the condi-
tions for problem-free engine operation. We therefore do not recommend mix-
ing fuel additives into the petrol - risk of engine damage or damage to the ex-
haust system.■
The following additives may not be used - There is a risk of engine damage
or damage to the exhaust system! ■ Additives with metal components (metallic additives), in particular with
manganese and iron content.
■ Fuels with metallic content (e.g. LRP - lead replacement petrol).
Note
■Unleaded petrol that has a higher octane number than that required by the
engine can be used without limitations.■
On vehicles with prescribed unleaded petrol 95/91, 92 or 93 ROZ, the use of
petrol with a higher octane number than 95 ROZ does not result in a noticea-
ble power increase or a lower fuel consumption.
■
On vehicles using the prescribed petrol of min. 95 ROZ, the use of petrol with
a higher octane number than 95 ROZ can lead to an increase in power and re-
duction in fuel consumption.
Diesel fuel

Check level
141
AdBlue ®
refill
142
In order to reduce pollutant emissions from vehicles with diesel engines and
the SCR catalyst, a urea - AdBlue ®
solution is injected into the exhaust system.
Only use AdBlue ®
that corresponds to the standard ISO 22241-1. Do not add
additives to AdBlue ®
.
The AdBlue ®
consumption is approx. 1.2 l - 1.6 l/1000 km, depending on driving
style, the operating temperature of the system and on the weather conditions.
AdBlue ®
-tank filling level is about 8.5 litres.
WARNINGAdBlue®
can cause skin, eye and respiratory irritation. If your eyes or skin
come into contact with the AdBlue ®
fluid, immediately wash the affected
area for a few minutes with a lot of water. If necessary get medical assis-
tance.
CAUTION
AdBlue ®
attacks the surface of some materials (e.g. as painted parts, plastics,
fabrics). Clean the areas affected with AdBlue ®
using a damp cloth and plenty
of cold water. Remove any dried AdBlue ®
with warm water and a sponge.
Note
■ The AdBlue ®
solution freezes at a temperature of -11 °C and below. The sys-
tem has a heater to ensure the operability at low temperatures.■
We recommend purchasing AdBlue ®
refill bottles from the ŠKODA original
parts.
■
The working life of the AdBlue ®
solution is 4 years. After this time, the solu-
tion must be replaced by a specialist garage.
■
AdBlue ®
is a registered trademark of the VDA. AdBlue ®
is also known as AUS
32 (Aqueous Urea Solution) or DEF (Diesel Exhaust Fluid).
Check level

The filler neck of AdBlue ®
Tank is located in the luggage compartment under
the symbol  and the cap marked with the lettering “AdBlue ®
” » Fig. 156 on
page 142 .
The AdBlue ®
level is automatically monitored.
If the available travel distance that can be completed with the remaining AdBl- ue ®
tank capacity drops to about 2400 km, the warning  appears on the in-
strument cluster and a request for replenishment of AdBlue ®
appears.
An indication also appears in the instrument cluster showing the maximum
and minimum AdBlue ®
tank capacity.
If the available travel distance that can be driven with the existing AdBlue ®
tank capacity drops down to 0 km, then no motor start is possible.

Check tyre pressures
Check the tyre pressure, including that of the spare wheel, at least once a
month and also before setting off on a long journey.
Always check the inflation pressure when the tyres are cold. Do not reduce the
higher pressure of warm tyres.
In vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring, tyre pressure values must be saved
each time the pressures are changed » page 123.
BCDEFGWARNING■
Do not drive with incorrect tyre pressure - There is a risk of accident.■In the event of very rapid pressure loss (e.g. in the event of tyre damage)
an attempt should be made to bring the vehicle carefully to a stop without
sudden steering movements and without any hard braking - risk of acci-
dent.
Note
The declaration of conformity (COC document), can be obtained from a ŠKODA 1)
partner.
Tyre wear and wheel change
Fig. 166
Tyre wear indicator / wheel change
Tyre wear increases in the following circumstances.
▶ Incorrect tyre pressures.
▶ Driving style (e.g. fast cornering, rapid acceleration / braking).
▶ Incorrect wheel balancing (you should have the wheels balanced after
changing/repair tyres or if the steering “is drifting”).
▶ Wheel alignment errors.
There are wear indicator markers in the tyre profiles, indicating whether the
minimum permissible tread depth has been reached » Fig. 166 - 
. A tyre
should be regarded as worn out when this indicator is flush with the tread.
