pollutants contained in the exhaust - is also determined by
how you drive.
The noise level and wear and tear are also influenced by how
you personally handle your vehicle. This Owner ´s Manual tells
you how to drive your Škoda to achieve the minimum impact
on the environment, and how to save money at the same time.
Look up „Environment“ in the Index to find out more.
Please also refer to all the texts identified with a
in this
Owner ´s Manual.
Make your contribution - for the sake of the
environment.

Layout of this Owner's Manual (explanations)
6Layout of this Owner's Manual (explanations)The Owner's Manual has been systematically designed, in order to make it easy for you to find and absorb the information you require.Chapters, table of contents and subject indexThe text of the Owner's manual is divided into relatively short sections which are combined into easy-to-read
chapters
. The chapter you are reading at any partic-
ular moment is highlighted at the bottom right of the page. The
Table of contents
is arranged according to the chapters and the detailed
Subject index
at the end of the Owner's Manual helps you to rapidly find the infor-
mation you are looking for.SectionsThe majority of
Sections
apply to all models.
Since there is a wide range of different equipment and options available it is clearly unavoidable, despite dividing the contents into sections, that mention may be made of equipment which is
not fitted to your vehicle.
Brief information and instructionsEach section has a
Heading
.
This is followed by
Brief information
(in large italic lettering), which tells you the
subject which is dealt with in this section. Most of the illustrations are accompanied by an
Instruction
(in relatively large
letters) which explains to you in a straig
htforward way the action you have to take.
Work steps
which have to be carried out are illustrated with a hyphen.
Direction indicationsAll direction indications such as “left”, “right
”, “front”, “rear” relate to the direction
of travel of the vehicle.Explanation of symbols* Equipment which is marked in such a wa
y is only standard
on certain vehicle
model versions or only suppliable as
optional equipment for certain models.
End of a section.
The section is continued on the next page.NotesAll four kinds of notes, which are used in th
e text, are always stated at the end of the
respective section.
WARNING
The most important notes are marked with the heading WARNING. These WARNING notes draw your attention to a serious risk of accident or injury. While reading the text you will frequently encounter a double arrow followed by a small warning symbol. This
symbol is intended to draw your
attention to a WARNING note at the end of the section to which you must pay careful attention.
Caution
A Caution
note draws your
attention to the possibility of damage to your vehicle
(e.g. damage to gearbox), or points
out general risks of an accident.
For the sake of the environment
An Environmental
note draws your attention to environmental protection aspects.
This is where you will, for example, find tips aimed at reducing your fuel consump- tion.
Note
A normal
Note
draws your attention
in a general way to important information.
