service schedule SKODA CITIGO 2012 1.G Owner's Manual

The on-board literature
The on-board literature for your vehicle consists of this
“Owner's Manual” as well
as a “Service schedule” and the “Help on the road” brochure.
Depending on the vehicle model and equipment, other additional operating man-
uals and instructions may be provided (e.g. an operating manual for the radio).
If one of the publications listed above is missing, please contact a ŠKODA Service
Partner.
The Owner's Manual
These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without
identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent
equipment.
Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-
nents described in this Owner's manual.
The level of equipment of your vehicle refers to your purchase contract of the ve-
hicle. For more information, contact your local ŠKODA retailer.
The illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only inten-
ded for general information.
The Service Plan:
› includes vehicle data including information on service work performed;
› is a record of services provided;
› is provided for entries relating to the mobility warranty (valid only for some
countries);
› serves as warranty certificate of the ŠKODA dealer.
The service records are one of the conditions for warranty claims.
Please always present the Service schedule when you take your car to a ŠKODA
specialist garage.
If the Service Schedule is missing or worn, please contact the ŠKODA specialist
garage that regularly services your car. You will receive a duplicate, in which the
previously carried out service work is confirmed by the ŠKODA specialist garage.
The Help on the Road brochure
The brochure contains the important emergency telephone numbers as well as
telephone numbers and contact addresses of ŠKODA Service Partners in different
countries.

Avoid high engine speeds during the running-in period and before the engine has
warmed up to the operating temperature . For the sake of the environment
Shifting to a higher gear in good time helps to lower fuel consumption, minimises
operating noise levels, protects the environment and contributes to a longer life
and reliability of the engine. ÐCounter for distance driven
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
The distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km).
In some countries the measuring unit
“mile” is used.
Reset button

for longer.
Daily trip counter (trip)
The daily trip counter indicates the distance which you have driven since it was
last reset - in steps of 100 metres or 1/10 of a mile.
Odometer
The odometer indicates the total distance in kilometres or miles which the vehicle
has been driven. ÐService Interval Display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
Before the next service interval, the message
  appears for some seconds and
the remaining kilometres are indicated after switching on the ignition.
At the time of the service, an acoustic signal will sound and the message  

 ap-
pears for a few seconds after switching on the ignition. ä
ä Resetting Service Interval Display
The ŠKODA specialist garage:
› Resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection
› Adds an entry to the Service Schedule
› Affixes the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of
the dashboard on the driver's side Note
■ Information is retained in the Service Interval Display even after the vehicle bat-
tery is disconnected. ■ If the instrument cluster is exchanged after a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by
a ŠKODA specialist garage. ■ For more information on the service intervals » Service Plan. Ð Recommended gear
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
An information for the engaged gear is shown in the display of the instrument
cluster.
In order to minimise the fuel consumption, a recommendation for shifting into an-
other gear is indicated in the display.

10 Using the system

Changing engine oil
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 108.
The engine oil must be changed at the intervals stated in the Service schedule or
according to the service interval indicator
» page 10, Service Interval Display.CAUTION
Additives must not be added to the engine oil – risk of causing considerable dam-
age to parts of the engine! Damage, which results from such product, are exclu-
ded from the warranty. Note
If your skin has come into contact with oil, it must be washed thoroughly. ÐCoolant
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 108.
The cooling system is filled with a coolant in the factory.
The coolant consists of water with a concentration of coolant additive of 40 %.
This mixture provides antifreeze protection down to -25
°C and also protects the
cooling and heating system from corrosion. It also prevents the formation of scale
and significantly increases the boiling point of the coolant.
The concentration of coolant must therefore not be reduced by adding water dur-
ing the summer months or in countries with a warm climate. The concentration of
coolant additive in the coolant must be at least 40 %.
If a higher concentration of antifreeze is required for climatic reasons, the amount
of coolant additive can only be increased up to 60 % (antifreeze protection down
to approx. -40 °C). The antifreeze protection tails off above that concentration.
Vehicles exported to countries with a cold climate are already factory-filled with a
coolant which offers antifreeze protection down to about -35 °C. In these coun-
tries the concentration of coolant additive should be at least 50 %.
When refilling, we only recommend you use the same antifreeze written on the
antifreeze expansion tank » Fig. 101 on page 112.

Coolant capacity
Petrol engines Capacities (in litres)
1.0 ltr./44 kW MPI 4.2
1.0 ltr./55 kW MPI 4.2
1.0 l/50 kW - CNG 4.2 CAUTION
■ Other coolant additives that do not comply with the correct specifications can
above all significantly reduce the anticorrosion effect.
■ Any faults resulting from corrosion may cause a loss of coolant and can conse-
quently result in major engine damage! Ð Checking the coolant level
Fig. 101
Engine compartment: Coolant
expansion reservoir
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 108.
The coolant expansion bottle is located in the engine compartment.
›
Switch off the engine.
› Open the bonnet
» page 110.
› Check the level of coolant in the coolant expansion bottle
» Fig. 101. The cool-
ant level when the engine is cold must lie between the
“MIN” and “MAX” mark-
ings. The level may also rise slightly above the “MAX” marking when the engine
is warm.
If the coolant level in the coolant expansion tank is too low, this is indicated by
the warning light  lighting up in the instrument cluster » page 16, Coolant tem-
perature/coolant level . We still recommend inspecting the coolant level directly
at the reservoir from time to time. £

Type plate
The type plate » Fig. 128 can be seen at the bottom of the door frame after open-
ing the driver's door.
The type plate lists the following weights:
Maximum permissible gross weight
Maximum permissible front axle load
Maximum permissible rear axle load
Operating weight
The specified operating weight is for orientation purposes only. This value repre-
sents the minimum operating weight without additional weight-increasing equip-
ment such as air conditioning system, spare wheel, or trailer hitch.
The operating weight also contains the weight of the driver (75 kg), the weight of
the operating fluids, the tool kit, and a fuel tank filled to 90 % capacity.
It is possible to calculate the approximate loading capacity from the difference
between the permissible total weight and the operating weight » .
The payload consists of the following components:
› Passengers
› All items of luggage and other loads
› Roof load including roof rack system
› Equipment not included in the operating weight
› Trailer drawbar load when towing a trailer (max. 80 kg).
Measuring the fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions according to the ECE
standards and EU guidelines
The measurement of the intra-urban cycle begins with a cold start of the engine.
Afterwards urban driving is simulated. £ 1
