WARNINGFor the vehicle systems to function correctly, and thus for safe driving,
there must be sufficient fuel in the tank. Never drain the fuel tank com-
pletely – risk of accident!
CAUTION
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! Irregular supply of fuel can
cause misfiring, which can result in damage to parts of the engine and the ex-
haust system.
Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates a
fraction less.

If the display of the second speed is activated in mph, the current speed is not
indicated in km/h on the display.
Information overview
Overview of driving data (depending on the vehicle equipment fitted).
Exterior temperature - For vehicles with a MAXI DOT display this information
is always shown.
Driving time - driving time since last clearing the memory.
Current fuel consumption - when the vehicle is stationary or moving slowly,
the fuel consumption is displayed in l/h (in models in some countries the fol-
lowing appears --,- km/l).
Average fuel consumption - is calculated continuously since the last clearing
of the memory. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300
m driven.
Range - drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing tank ca-
pacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more efficiently this value
can increase.
AdBlue ®
range - drive distance in km which can be covered with the existing
AdBlue ®
tank capacity and with the same driving style. If you drive more effi-
ciently this value can increase.
Distance driven - distance driven since the memory was last cleared.
Average speed - value constantly recalculated, for distance since last clearing
the memory. After erasing the memory, no data will appear for the first 300 m
driven.
Current Speed - digital speedometer.
Oil temperature - if the temperature is lower than 50 °C or if there is a fault in
the system for checking the oil temperature, the
symbols are displayed.
Warning when the preset speed is exceeded - allows the setting of a speed
limit where, if exceeded, an acoustic warning signal and a warning message
appears on the display of the instrument cluster.
Warning when exceeding the set speed
The system offers the possibility to set a speed limit beyond which an acoustic
warning signal will sound and the following warning message (MAXI DOT Dis-
play) and the symbol appears in the display of the instrument cluster.

The correct fuel for your vehicle is specified on the inside of the fuel filler
flap » Fig. 154 .
The fuel capacity for vehicles with front wheel drive is about 55 litres, and for
vehicles with four-wheel drive about 60 litres, with about 9 litres as reserve.
WARNINGFuel vapours are explosive - can be fatal!
CAUTION
■
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! 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 a country other than the one for
which it was intended, please talk to a ŠKODA Partner. They will tell you
whether the fuel specified by the manufacturer is offered in that country
and/or whether the manufacturer will sanction operating the vehicle with an-
other fuel.

139Inspecting and replenishing
Operating under different weather conditions
Use only diesel in accordance with the current or expected weather conditions.
Ask the petrol station personnel whether the diesel fuel offered corresponds
to these conditions.
CAUTION
The following instructions must be observed, otherwise there is a risk of dam-
age to the engine and to the exhaust system.■
If a different fuel other than diesel fuel, which complies to the above men-
tioned standards (e.g. petrol) is put into the tank, do not start the engine or
switch on the ignition!
■
The biofuel RME must not be used!
CAUTION
Diesel fuel additives■The diesel fuel in accordance with the prescribed standards meets all the
conditions for a smooth running engine. Therefore, we recommend that you do
not add any fuel additives to the diesel - there is a risk of engine damage or
damage to the exhaust system.
AdBlue ®
And its refilling
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
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
Read and observe
and on page 141 first.
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.
The distance which can still be driven with the remaining AdBlue ®
, can be de-
termined using the travel data » page 30.

We recommend AdBlue ®
to be refilled by a specialized workshop. If necessary,
it can refill itself using a refill.
We recommend when refilling using refill bottles that you use refill bottles
from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
When adding AdBlue ®
take note of the minimum and maximum AdBlue ®
tank
capacity shown in the display of the instrument cluster » page 30.
