The auxiliary heating (parking heating) warms up the coolant by combusting fuel
from the vehicle tank. The coolant warms up the air, which (if the blower speed is
not set to zero) flows into the passenger 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 de-
creased (e.g. with the vehicle parked in the sun).
WARNING
■ The auxiliary heating must never be operated in closed rooms - risk of poi-
soning! ■ The auxiliary heating must not be running during refuelling - risk of fire.
■ The exhaust pipe of the auxiliary heating is located on the underside of the
vehicle. Therefore, if you wish to operate the auxiliary heating, do not park the
vehicle in such a way that the exhaust gases from the auxiliary heating can
come into contact with highly flammable materials (e.g. dry grass) or easily in-
flammable substances (e.g. spilt fuel). Note
■ If the auxiliary heating runs, the fuel consumption 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 been operated several times over a
longer period, the vehicle must be driven a few kilometres 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 peri-
od.
■ The auxiliary heating and ventilation does not switch on or comes on, if the ve-
hicle battery indicates a low loading state » page 169, Automatic load deactiva-
tion . ■
The auxiliary heating (parking heating) does not switch on, if the following was
shown in the information display or before switching off the ignition: Please re-
fuel! ■ 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 into the vehicle interior after switching on the auxili-
ary heating, you must maintain the comfort temperature normally selected by
you, leave the fan switched on and leave the air outlet vents in an open position.
It is recommended to put the air flow in the position or .Ð Direct switching on/off

Button for direct switching on/
off of the auxiliary heating (aux-
iliary heating and ventilation) on
the operating part of the air con-
ditioning system
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 87.
The auxiliary heating (auxiliary heating and ventilation) can be
directly switched
on or off at any time using the button » Fig. 91 on the operating part of the air-
conditioning system, on the operating part of the Climatronic system or via the ra-
dio remote control » page 89.
If the auxiliary heating and ventilation is not switched off earlier, it switches off
automatically after the set operating period, in the menu Running time has ex-
pired. Ð

Note
■ The engine can only be started with a genuine ŠKODA key with the matching
code. ■ The engine running noises may louder at first be louder for a short time after
starting the cold engine. This is quite normal and is not an operating problem. ■ After switching off the ignition, the radiator fan can intermittently continue to
operate for approx. 10
minutes.
■ If the engine does not start up after a second attempt, the fuse for the fuel
pump/glow plug system (Diesel engines) may have a fault. Check the fuse and re-
place, if necessary » page 190, Fuses in the dash panel
or seek assistance from a
ŠKODA specialist garage.
■ We recommend locking the steering wheel whenever leaving the vehicle. This
acts as a deterrent against the attempted theft of your car. ÐAdjusting the steering wheel position

Adjustable steering wheel: Lever below the steering wheel/safe dis-
tance to the steering wheel
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 91.
The height and forward/back position of the steering wheel can be adjusted.
›
First of all adjust the driver's seat
» page 55, Manually adjusting the front seats .
› Pull the lever below the steering wheel down
» Fig. 93 - .
› Adjust the steering wheel to the desired position (with regard to the height and
forward/back position).
› Push the lever upwards to the stop. Ð
ä Electromechanical power steering
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 91.
The power steering enables you to steer the vehicle with less physical force.
With the electromechanical power steering, the steering assist is automatically
adapted to the speed and to the steering angle.
It is still possible to fully steer the vehicle if the power steering fails or if the en-
gine is not running (vehicle being towed in). However, greater physical effort is
required to turn the steering wheel.
If there is a fault in the power steering, the warning light or lights up in the
instrument cluster » page 21, Electromechanical power steering . Ð Electronic immobiliser
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 91.
An electronic chip is integrated in the head of the key. The immobiliser is deacti-
vated with the aid of this chip when the key is inserted in the ignition lock. The
electronic immobiliser is automatically activated when the ignition key is with-
drawn from the lock.
The engine will not start if a non-authorized ignition key is used.
The following is displayed in the information display: Immobilizer active. Ð

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Refuelling 155
Unleaded petrol 156
Ethanol E85 157
Diesel fuel 158
The correct type of fuel for your vehicle and the tyre size and inflation pressure
are specified on the inside of the fuel filler flap » Fig. 129 on page 155 - . WARNING
The national legal requirements must be observed if carrying a spare canister
in the vehicle. We do not recommend carrying any fuel canisters in your vehi-
cle for safety reasons. In the event of an accident, the canister might be dam-
aged and fuel may leak out - risk of fire! CAUTION
■ Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! The irregular supply of fuel
can cause misfiring, which can result in considerable damage to parts of the en-
gine and exhaust system. ■ Immediately remove any fuel that has spilled onto the vehicle's paintwork - risk
of paint damage! Ð Refuelling

Open fuel filler flap
›
Press in the middle of the left area of the fuel filler flap
» Fig. 129 - .
› Unscrew the filler cap by turning it to the left and place the cap onto the top of
the fuel filler flap » Fig. 129 - .
Closing the filler cap
› Turn the filler cap to the right until it clicks into place.
› Close the fuel filler flap until it clicks into place.
Check that the fuel filler flap is closed properly. CAUTION
■ Before refuelling it is necessary to switch off the auxiliary heating system (aux-
iliary heating and ventilation).
■ The fuel tank is full just as soon as the pump nozzle switches off for the first
time, provided the nozzle has been operated properly. Do not continue filling the
fuel tank otherwise the expansion volume is filled up. £
