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 light 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. Other 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 specialist garage
or, in exceptional cases, by calling on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area
⇒ page 153, Work-
ing in the engine compartment .
We recommend that you always have a small box of replacement bulbs in your ve-
hicle. You can obtain replacement bulbs from
ŠKODA Original Accessories or from
a specialist garage.
A stowage place for spare bulbs is located in the box in the spare wheel.
Vehicles with LED separate daytime running lights
In vehicles with LED separate daytime running lights, the bulbs are replaced by a
specialist garage.
