Electronic Differential Lock (EDL and XDS)*3
Electronic Differential Lock (EDL and XDS)*XDS function (Fabia RS and Fabia RS Combi only)
XDS is an extension to the electronic differential lock. XDS does not respond to traction,
but to the relief of the inner front wheel during fast cornering. XDS applies pressure to
the brake of the inner wheel to prevent it fr om spinning. Thus, the traction is improved
and the vehicle follows the desired track.Grades of petrolPrescribed types of fuel - unleaded petrol RON 98/95
Use unleaded petrol 98 RON. You can also use unleaded RON 95. However some loss
of power is to be expected when doing so.
If unleaded RON 98 or RON 95 is not available, you ca n refuel with unleaded RON 91
in an emergency. After refuelling, conti nue driving at medium engine speeds and
minimum engine load. Driving at high engine speeds or heavy engine loads can lead
to serious engine damage! Refuel with pe trol with the specified octane number as
often as possible.
Fuel with a lower octane number than RON 91 must not be used even in an emer-
gency. Otherwise you can ca use serious engine damage!
Tyre repair kit*General informationThe tyre repair kit is located in a box un der the carpet in the luggage compartment.
Use the tyre repair kit to re liably repair tyre damage ca used by foreign bodies or a
puncture with diameters up to 4 mm. Do no t remove foreign bodies, e.g. screws or
nails, from the tyre!
The repair can be undertaken on the vehicle immediately.
The repair with the tyre repair kit is not at all intended to replace a permanent repair
on the tyre, this repair only serves to reach the next specialist garage.
Do not use the tyre repair kit:•
to repair wheel damage,
•
in outside temperatures of less than -20 °C (-4 °F),
•
with tears or punctures greater than 4 mm in size,
•
to repair damage to the tyre wall,
•
when driving with very low tyre pressure or with a completely flat tyre,
•
if the use-by-date (see inflation bottle) has passed.

Tyre repair kit*5
– Park the vehicle as far away as possible from the traffic flow. Park on as flat and firm
a surface as possible.
–Have all the occupants get out. While changing a wheel, the occupants of the
vehicle should not stand on the road (e.g. behind a crash barrier).
– Switch off the engine and engage 1st gear or if your vehicle is fitted with an auto-
matic gearbox, position the selector lever into position P .
– Apply the handbrake firmly.
– Check whether you can carry out the repairs with the tyre repair kit page 3,
“General information”.
– If a trailer is coupled, uncouple it.
– Remove the tyre repair kit from the luggage compartment.
– Stick the sticker page 4, fig. 4 on the dash panel in view of the driver.
– Do not remove the foreign body, e.g. screw or nail, from the tyre.
– Unscrew the valve cap.
– Use the valve remover to remove the va lve core and place it down on a clean
surface.Seal and inflate tyresSealing tyres– Forcefully shake the tyre inflator bottle  page 4, fig. 4 several times.
– Firmly screw inflation hose onto the tyre inflator bottle in a clockwise direction . The film on the cap is pierced automatically.
– Remove the plug from the inflation hose and plug the open end fully into the tyre valve.
– Hold the bottle with the floor facing up wards and fill the whole sealing agent in
the tyre inflator bottle into the tyres.
– Remove the empty tyre inflator bottle from the valve.
– Screw the valve core back into the tyre valve using the valve remover .

– Drive the vehicle 10 metres forwards or backwards to allow the sealing agent to
distribute in the tyre.
– Screw the tyre inflation hose of the air compressor firmly back onto the tyre
valve and repeat the inflation procedure.

If you reached a tyre inflation pressure of 2.0 - 2.5 bar, resume driving at a maximum
