As soon as the window is de-iced or free from mist, the heating should be switched off.
The reduced current consumption will have a favourable effect on fuel economy
 page 177, “Saving electricity”.
Note

If the on-board voltage drops, the rear window heater is switched off automatically,
in order to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control.

The position and the shape of the switch can differ depending on equipment
installed in the vehicle.

The rear window wiper operates only if the boot lid is closed.
If the intermittent wipe is switched on, the intervals are also controlled depending on
speed.
The rain sensor* automatically regulates the break between the individual wiper
strokes depending on the intensity of the rain.
The rear window will be wiped again if the front window wipers are on when reverse
gear is selected.
The windscreen washer nozzles are heated* when the ignition is switched on.
Top up with wash liquid page 214.
Winter position
If the windscreen wipers are in rest positi on, they cannot be folded out from the wind-
screen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wipers in winter so
that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily. You can set this rest position as
follows:

Switch on the windscreen wipers.

Switch off the ignition. The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they
were when switching off the ignition.
You can also use the service position page 65 as a winter position.
WARNING

Properly maintained wind screen wiper blades are essential for clear visi-
bility and safe driving page 65.

Do not use the windscreen washer sy stem at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. Otherwise the window cleaner could
freeze on the windscreen and re strict the view to the front.

The rain sensor only operates as a su pport. The driver is not released from
the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers manually
depending on the visibility conditions.Caution
In frosty weather, please firs t of all check whether the windscreen wiper blades are not
frozen to the windscreen before switching them on. Switching on windscreen wipers
when the blades are frozen to the windscreen may result in damage both to the blades
and the motor of the windscreen wipers!
Note

If the slower page 63, fig. 50 or the faster wiper setting is switched on and
the vehicle speed decreases to below 4 km/h, the lower wiper step is switched on
automatically. At a speed increase of more than 8 km/h the previous wiper setting is
established again.

If there is an obstacle on the windscre en, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. If the obstacle continues to bloc k the wiper, the wiper stops automatically
after 5 attempts to eliminate the obstacle, in order to avoid a damage to the wiper.
Remove the obstacle and and switch on the wiper again.

The content of the windscreen wiper reserv oir is 3 litres. On vehicles which are
equipped with a headlight cleani ng system*, the content of the reservoir is 5.5 litres.
On vehicles fitted with auxiliary heating, the content of the windscreen wiper reservoir
is 4.5 litres.
Automatic rear window wiper*If the windshield wiper lever is in the posi tion or , the rear window wiper carries
out a wiping process every 30 seconds or 10 seconds at a speed above 5 km/h.
When the rain sensor* is active (the lever is in the position ) the function is only
active if the front window wipers continue to operate (no break between each wiping
process).
9)On vehicles which do not have a contact switch for the bonnet, the windshield wiper and wash
system operates also when the bonnet is opened.

vehicle as well as while driving (only during the heating phase of the engine).
The engine is also preheated when the vehicle is stationary and the engine is switched
off, if the auxiliary heating is switched on.
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) wa rms up the coolant during the combustion
of fuel from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed
is not set to zero) flows into the occupant compartment.
Auxiliary ventilation
The auxiliary ventilation enables fresh air to flow into the vehicle interior by switching
off the engine, whereby the interior temperature is effectively decreased (e.g. with the
vehicle parked in the sun).

106WARNING

The auxiliary heating must never be op erated in closed rooms - risk of
poisoning!

The auxiliary heating must not be runn ing during refueling - risk of fire.

The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of the
vehicle. Therefore do not place the vehicl e, if you wish to operate the auxiliary
heating, in such a way that the exhaust gases of the auxiliary heating can come
easily into contact with inflammable materi als (e.g. dry grass) or easily inflam-
mable substances (e.g. fuel run out).Note
If the auxiliary heating runs, the fuel co nsumption comes from the vehicle tank. The
auxiliary heating automatically controls the filling level in the fuel tank. If only a low
quantity of fuel is present in the fuel tank, the function of the auxiliary heating is
blocked.
The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating, which is located on the underside of the
vehicle, must not be clogged and the exhaust flow must not be blocked.

If the auxiliary heating and ventilation is running, the vehicle battery discharges. If
the auxiliary heating and ventilation has be en operated several times over a longer
period, the vehicle must be driven a few ki lometers in order to recharge the vehicle
battery.

The auxiliary heating only switches the blower on, if it has achieved a coolant
temperature of approx. 50 °C.

At low outside temperatures, this can result in a formation of water vapour in the
area of the engine compartment. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem.

After switching off the auxiliary heating, the coolant pump runs for a short period.

The auxiliary heating and ventilation does no t switch on or comes on, if the vehicle
battery indicates a low loading state.

The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating) does not switch on, if the following was
shown in the information display or before switching off the ignition: Please refuel!

The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of ice, snow or leaves in order
to ensure that the auxiliary heating operates properly.

So that warm air can flow in to the vehicle after switching on the auxiliary heating,
you must maintain the temperature normally selected by you (we recommend 22 °C
for Climatic, Climatronic and for the heat ing turn the regulator to the right
 page 97, fig. 101 ). It is recommended to put the air flow in the position
.

On vehicles with DPF (diesel particle filt er) the warm coolant heats up the engine.
Direct switching on/offThe auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and vent ilation) can be switched on or off at any
time directly using the button on the operating part of the Climatic, Climatronic or
heating fig. 104 .
If the auxiliary heating and ventilation is not switched off earlier, it switches off auto-
matically after the expiration of the set operating period, in the menu Running time.
Note
A radio remote control for the auxiliary heating can be obtained from Škoda original
accessories.

Using the system
So that the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) func-
tions according to your expectations, it is necessary to carry out the
basic setting before its programming.Basic setting– On the information display, select in the Main menu the menu point
Aux. heating .
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Weekday and set the current day.
– By selecting the menu point Back, you will reach in the menu Aux. heating.
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Running time and set the desired
running time in steps of 5 minutes. The running time can be 10 to 60 minutes.
– By selecting the menu point Back, you will reach in the menu Aux. heating.
– In the menu Aux. heating select the menu point Mode.
– In the menu Mode select the desired mode Heating for or Ventilation for .ProgrammingFor the programming of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) in the
menu Aux. heating (Aux. heating) there are three pre-set times:
Pre-set time 1

Pre-set time 2

Pre-set time 3
In each pre-set time, the day and the time (hour and minute) can be set for switching
on the auxiliary heating and/or ventilation.
An empty position can be fo und between Sunday and Monday when selecting the day.
If this empty position is selected, the activation is performed without taking into
account the day.
If you leave the pre-set menu by selecting the menu Back or do not make changes on
the display for longer than 10 seconds, the set values are stored, but the pre-set time
is not active. Both other pre-set times can be prog
rammed and stored in the same way.
If you select the menu Activate after setting the desired values, appears in the display
Pre-set time (weekday, hours, minute) activated. and the set pre-set time is active.
Only one programmed pre-set time can be active.
The last programmed pre-set time remains active.
After the auxiliary heating activates at the set time, it is necessary to pre-set a time
again.
Changing the active pre-set time is carried out after selecting the menu point Activate
in the menu Aux. heating (auxiliary heating) by selecting a pre-set time.
The prerequisite for the correct switching on of the auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating
and ventilation) according to the programmed pre-set time is the correct setting of the
current time and the weekday page 107.
If the system is running, a warning light in th e button for direct switching on/off of the
auxiliary heating lights up.
The running system deactivates after expiration of the operating period or is deacti-
vated earlier by pressing the button for direct switching on/off of the auxiliary heating
 page 106.
A random pre-set time can be deac tivated by selecting the menu point Deactivate in
the menu Activate.
After selecting the menu Fac to r y s e tt ing in the menu Aux. heating , it is possible to
return to the factory setting.
