Roof rack
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
fixing points for base support
94
Roof load
94WARNING■ The items being transported on the roof rack must be reliably attached –
risk of accident.■
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps
or tensioning straps.
■
Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
the roof rack system, handling of the car may change as a result of the dis-
placement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed must
therefore be adapted to circumstances.
■
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and gross permissible
weight of the vehicle must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk
of accident.
CAUTION
■ Only roof racks from the ŠKODA Original Accessories range should be used.■The fitting instructions supplied with the roof luggage rack system must be
observed when handling roof racks.■
Ensure that the boot lid does not hit the roof load when opened.
■
The height of the vehicle changes after mounting a roof luggage rack system
and the load that is secured to it. Compare the vehicle height with available
clearances, such as underpasses and garage doors.
■
Always remove the roof luggage rack system before entering an automated
car wash.
■
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the secured load.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption.93Transporting and practical equipment

Perform the assembly and disassembly according to the enclosed instructions.
CAUTION
Observe the information regarding the assembly and disassembly in the en-
closed instructions.
Roof load
Read and observe
and on page 93 first.
The maximum permissible roof load (including roof rack system) of 75 kg and
the maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle should not be exceeded.
The full permissible roof load cannot be used if a roof rack system with a lower
load carrying capacity is used. In this case, the roof rack system must only be
loaded up to the maximum weight limit specified in the fitting instructions.
ABHeating and air conditioning

Heating

Malfunctions
99
The heating and air conditioning systems ventilate and heat the vehicle interi-
or. The air conditioning system also cools and dehumidifies the vehicle interior.
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
The heating and air conditioning systems only operate when the ignition is
switched on.
The cooling system operates only if the following conditions are met. The cooling system is switched on.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above approximately +2 °C.
The blower is switched on.
If the cooling system is switched on, the temperature and air humidity drops in
the vehicle. The cooling system prevents the windows from misting up during
winter months.
It is possible to briefly activate re-circulated air mode to enhance the cooling
effect » page 96 .
WARNING■
For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the win-
dows are free of ice, snow and misting.■
The blower should always be on to prevent the windows from misting up.
94Operation
Page 98 of 216
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine WARNING (Continued)■Under certain circumstances, air at a temperature of about 5 °C can flow
out of the vents when the cooling system is switched on.■
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for
the use of the cooling system are to be observed. ■The difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor air
temperature should not be greater than about 5 ° C.
■ The cooling system is to be turned off about 10 minutes before the end
of the journey.
■ Once a year, disinfection of the air conditioner or the Climatronic is to be
carried out by a specialist company.
CAUTION
■ The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or
leaves) to ensure that the heating and cooling system operates properly.■
After switching on the cooling system condensation from the evaporator of
the air conditioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is
not a leak!
■
If the coolant temperature is too high, the cooling system is switched off to
ensure that the engine cools down.
Note
The used air flows out through the vents in the luggage compartment.
Air outlet vents
Fig. 107
Air outlet vents
Read and observe and on page 94 first.
Warmed, not warmed fresh or cooled air will flow out of the opened air outlet vents according to the setting of the control and the outside atmospheric con-
ditions.
The direction of airflow can be adjusted using the air outlet vents 3 and 4
» Fig. 107 and the outlets can also be opened and closed individually.
Changing the direction of air flow
›
To change the height of the air flow, turn the horizontal fins upward or
downward using the movable adjuster
A
» Fig. 107 .
›
To adjust the lateral direction of the air flow, turn the vertical fins with the
movable adjuster
A
to the left or to the right.

block the air outlet vents.95Heating and air conditioning
Page 99 of 216
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Recirculated air modeRead and observe
and on page 94 first.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air from outside the vehicle getting in-to the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or when standing in
a traffic jam.
In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of the vehicle and then
fed back into the interior.

Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
To switch on recirculated air mode, press the symbol key
. The display
shows the icon.
To switch off recirculated air mode, press the symbol key
again. The
icon in the display goes out.
WARNINGThe recirculation system cannot be switched on for a longer period of time,
because there is no supply of fresh air from the outside. “Stale air” may re-
sult in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce attention levels and also
cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an accident increases.
Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows start to mist up.
CAUTION
We recommend not smoking in the vehicle when the recirculating air operation
is switched on. The smoke sucked from inside the vehicle is deposited on the
evaporator of the air conditioner. This produces a permanent odour when the
air conditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through con-
siderable effort and expense (replacement of compressor).

The cooling system operates only if the following conditions are met
» page 94 .
The warning light in the button
lights up after activation even if not all of
the conditions for the function of the cooling system have been met. The op-
erational readiness of the cooling system is indicated by the indicator light in
the button lighting up.
If recirculated air mode is turned to position
when the blower is on, the
cooling system is switched on. The cooling system is switched off again by
turning the air distribution control out of the position
.
If recirculated air mode is outside position when the recirculating air mode
is on, the cooling system is switched on.
Note
During operation of the air conditioning, under certain circumstances an in-
crease in engine idle speed may occur in order to ensure sufficient heating
comfort.
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
Fig. 110
Controls the Climatronic
Read and observe
and on page 94 first.
Climatronic in automatic mode ensures the best-possible setting of the tem-
perature of the outflowing air, the blower stage and air distribution.
The system also takes sunlight into account, which eliminates the need to al-
ter the settings manually.
