Electric fuses
Replacing fuses
Defect fuses must be replaced.
Individual electrical circuits are prot ected by fuses. The fuses are located
on the left side of the dash panel behind the safety cover.
– Switch the ignition off and also the electrical component affected.
– Use a screwdriver to take off the fuse cover ⇒fig. 201 .
– Find out which fuse belongs to the component which is not operating ⇒page 221, “Fuse assignment”.
– Take the plastic clip out of its fixture in the fuse cover, insert it onto the respective fuse and pull out this fuse.
– Defect fuses can be detected by their melted metal strips. Replace the defect fuse by a new fuse of the same ampere number.
–Fit on the fuse cover again.
We recommend that you carry the box of replacement fuses with you which was
delivered in your vehicle. You can obtain replacement fuses 6) from a Škoda Service
Par tner.

Caution
•Never attempt to “repair” fuses and also do not replace them with a fuse of a
higher amperage - 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 specialist garage
if a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time.
Note
We recommend that you have these fuses replaced by a specialist garage.

The power windows and the power seats are protected by automatic circuit
breakers which switch on again automatically after a few seconds after the over-
load has been eliminated - e.g. frozen windows.
Bulbs
Changing bulbs
The relevant lamp must always be switch ed off before a light bulb is replaced.
Do not take hold of the glass bulb with naked fingers (even the smallest amount of
dirt reduces the working life of the light bu lb). Use a clean cloth, serviette or some-
thing similar. Defect light bulbs should only be replaced
with light bulbs of the same type. The
designation is located on the li ght socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something wh ich you can do yourself, but requires to
be done by a specialist. Other parts of the vehicle must be removed in order to
change the light bulbs. This applies, in particular, to bulbs which can only be
reached from the engine compartment.
We therefore recommend that you have any bulbs changed by a Škoda Service
Partner or, in exceptional cases, by ca lling on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area ⇒page 185,
“Working in the engine compartment”.
We recommend that you carry the set of light bulbs with you which was delivered
in your vehicle. Replacement light bulbs
7) are available at specialist garages.
Fitted with a xenon headlight
Change of light bulbs on Xenon lights (low beam lights, parking lights and main
beam lights) should be undertaken by a specialist garage.

Vehicle identification number (VIN)
The vehicle identification number - VIN (v ehicle body number) is stamped onto the
partition between the engine compartment and the passenger compartment and
on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen.
Engine number
The engine number is stamped into the engine block.
Type plate (production plate)
The type plate is affixed to the rear cross panel in the engine compartment on the
right looking in the direction of travel.
Vehicles for certain export countries do not have a type plate.
Sticker on inside of fuel filler flap
The sticker is affixed to the inside of the fuel filler flap. The sticker contains the
following data:
•The prescribed types of fuel,
•Tyre s iz e ,
•Tyre pressure.
Fuel consumption according to the regulations
(99/100/EU)
Depending on the range of the special equipment, style of driving, traffic situation,
weather influences and vehi cle condition, the consumption values which in prac-
tice result when using the vehicle ca n deviate from the indicated values.
Urban traffic
The consumption measurement in urban traf fic begins with starting of the cold
engine. Afterwards the normal urban traffic is simulated.
Non-urban traffic
For the consumption measurement in non-ur ban traffic the vehicle, as in daily
motoring, is accelerated and braked several times in all gears. The vehicle speed
changes within the range from 0 to 120 km/h.
Combined traffic
The consumption value in the combined traf fic consists of 37% from the value for
the urban traffic and of 63% from the value for the non-urban traffic.
