WARNING (Continued)■Firmly apply the handbrake.■For vehicles with manual transmission the lever into the neutral position.
For vehicles with automatic transmission , place the selector lever in the P
position.■
Allow the engine to cool.
■
Never open the bonnet if you can see steam or coolant flowing out of the
engine compartment – There is a risk of scalding! Wait until the steam or
coolant has stopped escaping.
WARNINGInformation for working in the engine room■Keep everyone away from the engine compartment.■
Do not touch any hot engine parts – risk of burns!
■
Never touch the radiator fan. The radiator fan may still turn suddenly
about 10 minutes after switching off the ignition!
■
Do not smoke in the vicinity of the engine and avoid the use of open
flames or sparks.
■
Do not leave any items (e.g. cloths or tools) in the engine compartment.
This presents a fire hazard and the risk of engine damage.
■
Read and observe the information and warning instructions on the fluid
containers.
WARNINGInformation for working in the engine compartment with the engine run-
ning■
If it is necessary to work on the engine with the engine running, beware
of rotating engine parts and electrical plants - There is a risk to life!
■
Never touch the electric wiring on the ignition system.
■
Avoid short circuits in the electrical system, particularly on the vehicle's
battery.
CAUTION
Only refill using fluids with the proper specification - There is a risk of damage
to the vehicle!
Note
■ Fluids with the proper specifications can be purchased from the ŠKODA Origi-
nal Accessories or from the ŠKODA Genuine Parts ranges.■
We recommend you have the operating fluids replaced by a specialist garage.

WARNING■ Never drive with the bonnet lid not properly closed - There is a risk of ac-
cident!■
Make sure that when closing the bonnet, no body parts are crushed -
there is danger of injury!
143Inspecting and replenishing
To ensure uniform wear on all tyres, we recommend that you change the
wheels every 10 000 km, in line with the schedule » Fig. 166 - .WARNING■
Change the tyres at the latest when they are worn down to the wear indi-
cators -There is a risk of an accident.■
Faulty wheel alignment affects handling - There is a risk of an accident.
■
Unusual vibrations or the vehicle “pulling ” to one side could be a sign of
tyre damage. Reduce speed and stop! If there are no external signs of tyre
damage, seek the help of a specialist garage.
Spare wheel
Only use this emergency spare wheel to reach the nearest specialist garage, as
it is not intended for permanent use .
A warning label is always placed on the rim of the temporary spare wheel.
Please note the following if you intend to use the temporary spare wheel. ▶ Do not cover the warning sign.
▶ Be particularly observant when driving.
▶ Inflate the emergency spare to the maximum inflation pressure for the vehi-
cle » page 151 .
In vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring, save the tyre pressure values in the
system » page 123 .
WARNING■
Never drive with more than one spare wheel mounted!■Avoid full throttle acceleration, sharp braking and fast cornering when
driving with the temporary spare wheel.■
Do not use snow chains on the temporary spare wheel.
■
Observe instructions on the warning sign of the emergency wheel.

Operating in winter conditions
All-year (or “winter”) tyres
All-year or “winter”tyres (indicated by an M+S or a mountain peak/snowflake
symbol ) to improve the performance of the vehicle in winter conditions.
To get the best possible driving characteristics, all-year or “winter”tyres, with a
minimum tread depth of 4 mm on all four wheels, should be fitted.
If “winter” tyres are mounted, summer tyres should be fitted again in good
time as they provide better handling properties, a shorter braking distance,
less tyre noise and reduced tyre wear on roads which are free of snow and ice
as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
Speed symbol
All-year or “winter”tyres (marked with M+S and a peak/snowflake symbol
) of
a lower speed category than listed in the vehicle’s technical documentation
can be used provided that the maximum permissible speed for these tyres is
not exceeded even if the maximum possible speed of the vehicle is higher.

Maximum permissible rear axle load
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
The vehicle identification number - VIN (vehicle body number) is stamped into
the engine compartment on the right hand suspension strut dome. This num-
ber is also located on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen
(together with a VIN bar code), and on the type plate.
Engine number
The engine number (three-digit identifier and serial number) is stamped on the
engine block.
Supplementary Information (applies to Russia)
The full type approval number of the means of transport is indicated in the
registration documents, field 17.
Maximum permissible trailer weight
The listed maximum permissible trailer weight is only valid for altitudes up to 1000 m above sea level.
The engine output falls as altitude increases, as does the vehicle's climbing
power. Therefore, for every additional 1000 m in height (or part), the maximum
permissible towed weight must be reduced by 10%.
The towed weight is made up of the actual weights of the loaded towing vehi-
cle and the loaded trailer.WARNINGDo not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights – risk of acci-
dent and damage!
Operating weight
This value is only a guide value and corresponds to the lowest possible operat-
ing weight without further weight-reducing equipment (e.g. air conditioning,
spare wheel etc.). It also includes a weight allowance for the driver (75 kg), the
weight of the operating fluids, the tool kit and a fuel tank filled to 90 % ca-
pacity.

Note
If required, you can find out the precise weight of your vehicle at a specialist
garage.
Payload
It is possible to calculate the approximate maximum payload from the differ-
ence between the permissible total weight and the operating weight.
The payload consists of the following weights.
▶ The weight of the passengers.
▶ The weight of all items of luggage and other loads.
▶ The weight of the roof, including the roof rack system.
▶ The weight of the equipment that is excluded from the operating weight.
▶ The trailer drawbar load when towing a trailer (max. 80 kg or 85 kg for vehi-
cles 4x4 with the 2.0 l / 103 kW TDI CR and 2.0 l / 110 kW TDI CR engine).

Pitch angle / climbing ability
The departure angle values indicate the maximum incline of a slope, up which
the vehicle can drive at a slow speed without the bumper or underbody mak-
ing contact with the slope. The values listed correspond to the maximum axle
load, front or back.
The ramp angle indicates the value to which the vehicle can travel at a slow
speed on a ramp without setting the underbody on the ramp edge.
The Incline / gradeability indicates the value to which the vehicle can drive up
a slope on its own (Independent of the road surface and engine power). The
height gained over a distance of 100 m (slope) is specified in percent or de-
grees.CDEngineTransmissionFront overhang angle (°)Rear overhang angle (°)Ramp angle (°)Slope angle (°) / climbing ability (%)
