Emergency programme
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 102.
An emergency programme exists in the event of a fault in the system.
The gearbox operates in a corresponding emergency programme if there are
functional faults in the gearbox electronics. All of the display elements illuminate
or go out.
A functional fault can have the following effect:
› The gearbox only shifts into certain gears;
› The reverse gear
R cannot be used,
› The manual shift programme is switched off in emergency mode. Note
If the gearbox has switched to emergency mode, drive to a ŠKODA specialist ga-
rage to have the fault rectified. ÐSelector lever-emergency unlocking

Selector lever-emergency un-
locking
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 102.
In case of interruption of the power supply (e.g. flat vehicle battery, defective
fuse) or defect of the selector lever lock, the selector lever can no longer be shif-
ted from the position
P in the normal way and the vehicle can no longer be
moved. The selector lever must be unlocked in case of emergency.
› Firmly apply the handbrake.
› Open the storage compartment in front centre console or the front ashtray.

› Simultaneously press the Shiftlock button in the handle of the selector lever
and shift the lever into the position N (if the selector lever is shifted back into
the position P , it is blocked again). Ð106

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Fuses in the dash panel 190
Fuses in the engine compartment 191
Individual electrical circuits are protected by fuses.
› Before replacing a fuse, switch off the ignition and the appropriate consumer
› Find out which fuse belongs to the component that is not operat-
ing » page 190, Fuses in the dash panel or » page 191, Fuses in the engine
compartment .
› Take the plastic clip out of its fixture in the cover of the fuse box, place it on the
relevant fuse and pull it out.
› A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty fuse
with a new one of the
same amperage.

Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the en-
gine compartment » page 158, Engine compartment . CAUTION
■ Never “repair” fuses and also do not replace them with a fuse of a higher am-
perage - risk of fire! This may also cause damage at another part of the electrical
system.
■ Have the electrical system checked as quickly as possible by a ŠKODA specialist
garage if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.
■ When unlocking and locking the cover for the fuse box in the engine compart-
ment, it must be pressed on the sides of the box, otherwise the locking mecha-
nism can be damaged. ■ The cover for the fuse box in the engine compartment must always be applied
correctly. Water can penetrate and cause damage to the vehicle if the cover was
not applied correctly! Note
■ We recommend always carrying replacement fuses in the vehicle. A box of re-
placement fuses can be purchased from
ŠKODA Original Accessories.
■ Multiple fuses may exist for a single power consuming device.
■ Multiple power consuming devices can share a single fuse.
■ Electrically adjustable seats are protected by automatic circuit breakers, which
switch on again automatically after a few seconds after the overload has been
eliminated. Ð
