The specified safety equipment works together, in order to optimally protect
you and those travelling with you in accident situations.
The safety equipment does not protect you or the people travelling with you, if
you or your occupants adopt an incorrect seated position or the equipment is
not correctly adjusted or used.
If the seat belt is not fastened properly, this may result in injuries if an airbag is
activated in the event of an accident.
Correct and safe seated position
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Correct seated position for the driver
9
Adjusting the steering wheel position
10
Correct seated position for the front passenger
10
Correct seated position for the passengers in the rear seats
11
Examples of incorrect seated positions
11WARNING■ The front seats and all head restraints must be adjusted to match the
body size at all times and the seat belt must always be fastened properly to
provide the most effective levels of protection to the passengers.■
Each occupant must correctly fasten the seat belt belonging to the seat.
Children must be fastened » page 22, Transporting children safely with a
suitable restraint system.
■
If the occupant adopts an incorrect seated position, he is exposed to life-
threatening injuries, in case he is hit by a deployed airbag.
■
If the occupants on the rear seats are not sitting upright, the risk of injury
is increased due to incorrect routing of the seat belt.
■
The seat backrests must not be tilted too far back when driving, as this
will impair the function of the seat belts and of the airbag system – risk of
injury!
Correct seated position for the driverFig. 1
The correct distance of the driver
to the steering wheel/correctly
adjusted head restraint
Read and observe on page 9 first.
For your own safety and to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident, the following instructions must be observed.
Adjust the driver’s seat in the forward/back direction so that the pedals
can be fully depressed with slightly bent legs.
Adjust the seat backrest so that the highest point of the steering wheel
can be reached with your arms at a slight angle.
Adjust the steering wheel so that the distance
A
between the steering
wheel and your chest is at least 25 cm » Fig. 1. Adjust the steering
wheel » page 10 , Adjusting the steering wheel position .
Adjust the head restraint such that the top edge of the head restraint is at
the same level as the top of your head 1)
B
» Fig. 1 .
Correctly fasten the seat belt » page 12, Using seat belts .
Adjust the seats and head restraints » page 69.
WARNING■
Always assume the correct seated position before setting off and do not
change this position while driving. Also advise your passengers to adopt
the correct seated position and not to change this position while the car is
moving.■
Maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel. Not maintain-
ing this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able
to properly protect you – hazard!

Page 16 of 204
WARNING (Continued)■The lock tongue should only be inserted into the lock which is the correct
one for your seat. Wrong use of the safety belt will reduce its capacity to
protect and the risk of injury increases.■
The slot of the belt tongue must not be blocked, otherwise the belt
tongue will not lock in place properly.
■
Many layers of clothing and loose clothing (e. g. a winter coat over a jack-
et) do not allow you to be correctly seated and impairs proper operation of
the seat belts.
■
It is prohibited to use clamps or other objects to adjust seat belts (e. g. for
shortening the belts for smaller persons).
■
The seat belts for the rear seats can only fulfil their function reliably
when the seat backrests are correctly locked into position » page 72.
WARNINGInformation on the care and maintenance of the safety belts■The belt webbing must always be kept clean. Soiled belt webbing may im-
pair proper operation of the inertia reel » page 138.■
The seat belts must not be removed or changed in any way. Do not at-
tempt to repair the seat belts yourself.
■
Check the condition of all the seat belts on a regular basis. If any damage
to the seat belts, seat belt connections, inertia reel or the lock is detected,
the relevant seat belt must be replaced by a specialist garage.
■
Damaged seat belts which have been subjected to stress in an accident
and were therefore stretched, must be replaced – this is best done by a
specialist garage. The anchorage points of the belts must also be inspec-
ted. The anchorage points for the belts should also be checked.
Note
The national legal requirements must be observed when using seat belts.The physical principle of a frontal collisionFig. 4
Driver without a fastened seat belt/rear seat passenger without a
fastened seat belt
Read and observe
on page 12 first.
As soon as the vehicle is moving, so-called kinetic energy (the energy of mo-
tion) is produced both in terms of the car as well as in terms of the occupants.
The magnitude of this kinetic energy depends essentially on the speed at
which the vehicle is travelling and on the weight of the vehicle including the
occupants. The greater the speed and weight increase, the greater the
amount of energy which has to be absorbed in the event of an accident.
The speed of the vehicle is the most important factor. Doubling the speed of
the vehicle from 25 km/h up to 50 km/hour increases the kinetic energy four
times.
The idea that it is possible to support your body with your hands in a minor ac-
cident is incorrect. Even in a collision at only a low speed, the forces acting on
the body are such that it is no longer possible to support your body.
Even if you only drive at a speed of 30-50 km/h, the forces that your body is
exposed to in the event of an accident can exceed a metric ton (1000 kg).
For example, a person's weight of 80 kg “increases” to 4.8 tons (4,800 kg) at 50 km/h.
In the event of a frontal collision, occupants of the car not wearing a seat belt
are thrown forward and strike parts of the interior of the car, such as the
steering wheel, dash panel, windscreen in ways which cannot be control-
led » Fig. 4 -
. In certain circumstances you could even be thrown out of the
vehicle, which could cause life threatening or even fatal injuries.

CAUTIONNever drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! The irregular supply of fuel
can cause misfiring. This can result in considerable damage to parts of the en-
gine and the exhaust system.
Note
■ After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous
curves, braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indi-
cates approx. a fraction less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the
fuel gauge displays the correct fuel level again. This is not a fault.■
The arrow
next to the icon
within the fuel gauge displays the installation
location of the fuel filler on the right-hand side of the vehicle.

Voice control
The period of time during which the system is ready to receive voice com-
mands and to carry them out is called "dialogue". The system gives audible
feedback and guides you through the relevant functions if necessary.
Optimum understanding of the voice commands depends on several factors. › Speak at a normal volume without intonation or excessive pauses.
› Avoid poor pronunciation.
› Close the doors, windows and sliding roof in order to reduce or eliminate dis-
turbing noise from outside.
› It is recommended to speak louder at higher speeds, so that your voice is
louder than the increased surrounding noise.
› During the dialogue, limit background noise in the vehicle, e.g. passengers
talking at the same time.
› Do not speak when the system is making an announcement.
The microphone for voice control is housed in the moulded headliner and di-
rected towards the driver and front passenger. Therefore, the driver and the
front passenger can operate the equipment.

AUX input / MDI input (AUX and USB)
Depending on the equipment, your vehicle may have AUX or MDI inputs (AUX and USB) for connecting external audio sources.
The inputs are used to connect external devices (e.g. MP3 player) as well as for
listening to music from these devices via the factory fitted radio or navigation
system.
For connecting Apple devices to the MDI input use a “USB extension cable and
a 3.5 mm jack” from the ŠKODA original accessories. Connected Apple devices
can be operated from this device.
A description of the inputs can be found in the relevant operating instructions
for the radio or navigation system.
AUX input
For vehicles with an AUX input this depends on the equipment and is located
at one of the following locations.
› Between the front seats in the centre console
» Fig. 98 -
