The seat belts are automatically tensioned in the event of a collision of a cer-
tain severity.
Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of minor frontal collisions, side
and rear-end collisions, in the case of a rollover and also not in accidents in
which no major forces are produced from the front.WARNINGâ–  Any work on the belt tensioner system including removal and installation
of system components because of other repair work, must only be carried
out by a specialist garage.â– 
The protective function of the system is only adequate for a single acci-
dent. If the belt tensioners have been deployed, it is then necessary to re-
place the entire system.
Note
â–  Smoke is generated when the belt tensioners are deployed. This is not an in-
dication of a fire in the vehicle.â– 
When disposing of the vehicle or parts of the belt tensioner system, it is im-
portant to comply with national legal requirements. ŠKODA service partners
are familiar with these regulations and will be able to provide you with de-
tailed information.
Airbag system
Description of the airbag system
 Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
System description
17
Airbag deployment
17
The airbag system provides, as a supplement to the seat belts, additional oc-
cupant protection during severe frontal and side collisions.
WARNINGâ–  An airbag can only offer you optimal protection in combination with a
fastened seat belt .â– 
The airbag is not a substitute for the seat belt, but instead forms part of
the complete passive vehicle safety concept.
â– 
To ensure passengers are protected with the greatest possible effect
when the airbag is deployed, the front seats must be correctly adjusted to
match the body size » page 9, Correct and safe seated position .
â– 
If you do not fasten the seat belts when driving, lean too far forward or
adopt an incorrect seated position, you are exposing yourself to increased
risk of injury in the event of an accident.
WARNINGInformation on the use of the airbag systemâ– If there is a fault, the airbag system must be checked by a specialist ga-
rage immediately. Otherwise, there is a risk of the airbag not being activa-
ted in the event of an accident.â– 
No modifications of any kind must be made to parts of the airbag system.
â– 
Any work on the airbag system including the installation and removal of
system components due to other repair work (e.g. removal of the steering
wheel) must only be carried out by a specialist garage.
â– 
Never make any changes to the front bumper or bodywork.
â– 
It is prohibited to manipulate individual parts of the airbag system as this
might result in the airbag being deployed.
â– 
The protective function of the airbag system is sufficient for only one ac-
cident. The airbag system must then be replaced if the airbag has been de-
ployed.

This chapter contains manufacturer-approved tyre / rim combinations, divided
into modules according to the individual model variants.
Shared combinations are initially to be sought for the model variant (Roomster GreenLine, Roomster Scout and such like) and then according to the engine
size of your vehicle.
If the model variant of your vehicle cannot be found in the discrete module,
then the approved combinations are to be found according to the engine size
of your vehicle in module » page 161, Roomster .
Only use radial tyres of the same type, size (rolling circumference) and tread
pattern on one axle on all four wheels.
When mounting new tires the tires have to be replaced axle by axle.
The information listed in the table corresponds to the information available at the time of going to press.
The approved tyre / rim combinations for your car are given on the sales and
technical vehicle documentation.
