Unlocking and locking40
You should, however, proceed as fo llows if you wish to replace the
battery yourself:
– Fold open the key.
– Use a screwdriver to carefully lever off the front part of the key
⇒ page 39, fig. 19 from the transmitter housing .
– Take off the cover of the transmitter housing ⇒page 39, fig. 20 in
direction of arrow.
– Take the used battery out of the housing cover.
– Insert the new battery. Ensure that the “+” symbol on the battery is
facing downwards. The correct polarity is also shown on the cover
of the transmitter housing.
– Insert cover with battery in place at the rear of the transmitter
housing and press both parts together.
– Insert the transmitter housing into the front part of the key so that
the two parts lock into each other.
For the sake of the environment
Dispose of an old battery in accordance with environmental regulations.
Note
•The replacement battery must have the same specification as the original battery.
•If it is still not be possible to unloc k or lock the vehicle with the remote control even after replacing the battery this means that the system has to be synchronised ⇒page 48.
Electronic immobiliser
The electronic immobiliser prevents the vehicle being oper-
ated by an unauthorised person.
An electronic chip is integrated in the head of the key. The immobiliser is deac- tivated with the aid of this chip when the key is inserted in the ignition lock. The electronic immobiliser is automatically activated when you withdraw the igni- tion key from the lock.
Note
It is only possible to start the engine of your car with a Genuine Škoda key with the matching code ⇒page 31.
Locking
Valid for vehicles without a central locking system:
Locking from outside
The securing head will move upwards or downwards in the door when unlocking or locking.
Locking from inside
All closed vehicle doors are locked by pressing in the securing knobs from the inside. The doors cannot be opened from the outside when the securing knobs have been pressed in. The vehicle door s can be opened from the inside as follows:
•The door is unlocked by actu ating the door-opening lever.

– Have the tightening torque checked with a torque wrench as
soon as possible. Steel and light alloy wheels must be tightened to
a tightening torque of 120 Nm.
The safety wheel bolts on vehicles fitted with them (one safety wheel bolt per wheel) can only be loosened or tighte n up by using the adapter provided.
It is meaningful to note the code num ber hammered into the rear side of the adapter or the rear side of the safety wheel bolts. You can obtain a replacement adapter from a Škoda Service Partner, if necessary, by quoting this number.
We recommend that you always carry th e adapter for the wheel bolts with you in the vehicle. It should be stowed in the vehicle tool kit.
Caution
•Damage can occur to the adapter and sa fety wheel bolt if the safety wheel bolt is tightened up too much.
•On steel wheels, the theft-deterrent whee l bolt must always be installed in the hole, which is close to the valve. Otherwise the full wheel trim cannot be mounted and the full wheel trim can be damaged during the assembly.
Note
The set of safety wheel bolts can be obtained from a Škoda Service Partner.
Jump-starting
Initial steps
You can use the battery of another vehicle for jump-starting yours if the engine does not start because the battery on yo ur vehicle is flat. You will require jump- start cables for this purpose.
Both batteries must have a rated voltage of 12 V. The capacity (Ah) of the battery supplying the power must not be si gnificantly less than the capacity of the discharged battery in your vehicle.
Jump-start cables
Only use jump-start cables which have an adequately large cross-section and insulated terminal clamps. Please pay attention to the manufacturer's instruc- tions.
Positive cable - colour coding in the majority of cases red.
Negative cable - colour coding in the majority of cases black.
WARNING
•A discharged battery may already freeze at temperatures just below 0°C. In case of frozen battery carry out no jump-starting - risk of explo- sion! Also after thawing of the battery there is a risk of caustic burns due to leaking acid. Replac e the frozen battery.
•Please pay attention to the warning instructions relating to working in the engine compartment ⇒page 198.
Note
•There must not be any contact between the two vehicles otherwise current may flow as soon as the negative terminals are connected.

Fuse assignment at battery
Certain electrical components are only standard on certain vehicle model versions or only suppliable as op tional equipment for certain models.
Bulbs
Replacing bulbs
The relevant lamp must always be switched off before a light bulb is replaced.
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest amount of dirt reduces the working life of the li ght bulb). Use a clean cloth, serviette or something similar.
Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same type. The designation is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something which you can do yourself, but requires to be done by a specialist. Ot her parts of the vehicle must be removed in order to change the light bulbs. This applies, in particular, to bulbs which can only be reached from the engine compartment.
We therefore recommend that you have any bulbs changed by a Škoda Service Partner or, in exceptional cases, by ca lling on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area ⇒page 198, “Working in the engine compartment”.
We recommend that you carry the set of light bulbs with you which was deliv- ered in your vehicle. Replacement light bulbs 7) are available at a Škoda Service Par tner.
The set of light bulbs can be stowed in the locable box in the spare wheel.
