Automatic gearbox DSG*Automatic gearbox DSG*IntroductionYour car is equipped with an automatic
gearbox DSG. The abbr
eviation DSG means
Direct shift gearbox (Direct shift gearbox). Two independent clutches are needed for the power transmission between the engine and the gearbox. These replace the torque converter of the conventional automatic gearbox. Their shifting is matched in such a way that there are no jerks when shifting the gear and the power transmission of the engine to the front wheels is not interrupted.Information for driving with the automatic gearbox DSG Shifting up and down through the gears is performed automatically.You can also, however, switch
the gearbox over into the
Tiptronic mode
.
This mode makes it possible for
you to also shift gears manually
⇒
page 134.
Starting-off and Driving – Depress the brake pedal and hold it depressed. – Press the Shiftlock button (button
in handle of the selector lever),
move the selector lever into the desired position, e.g.
D ⇒
page 132,
and then release the Shiftlock button.
– Release the brake pedal and depress the accelerator
⇒
.
Stopping for a short time – The selector lever position
N does not have to be selected when stop-
ping just for a short time, such as at a
cross roads. It is sufficient to hold
the vehicle stationary using the foot
brake. The engine can, however,
be allowed just to idle.
Parking – Depress the brake pedal and hold it depressed. – Apply the handbrake firmly. – Press and Shiftlock button in the
selector lever, move the selector
lever to
P and then release the Shiftlock button.
The engine can only be
started
when the selector lever is in position
P or N
⇒ page 119. At temperatures below -10 °C the engine can only be started in the selector lever position
P.
It is sufficient to engage
selector lever position
P when parking on a flat surface.
When parking on a slope you should first apply the handbrake firmly and then move the selector le
ver into position
P. This is to ensure that there is no excessive
pressure acting on the lock mechanism and
that it is easier to subsequently move
the selector lever out of position
P.
If the selector lever position
N is selected by accident while driving it is first neces-
sary to release pressure on the accelerato
r pedal and wait for idling speed of the
engine to be reached before engaging a drive position in the selector lever.
WARNING
•
Do not depress the accelerator when changing the position of the
selector lever if the car is stationary an
d the engine is running - risk of acci-
dent!•
Never move the selector lever into position R or P when driving - risk of
an accident!

Kickdown function The kickdown function provides you with maximum acceleration power.Depressing the accelerator pedal allows th
e kickdown function
to be activated in
the desired driving program. This function has precedence over the driving programme and serves for maximum accelera
tion of the vehicle when exploiting
the maximum power potential of the engi
ne without taking into account the
current selector lever position (
D, S or Tiptronic
). The gearbox shifts down to one
or several gears in line with the driving state and the vehicle accelerates. The gearbox does not shift up into the highes
t gear until the engine has reached its
maximum revolutions for this gear range.
WARNING
Please note that using the kickdown fu
nction can result in the driven wheels
spinning on a smooth or slippery road surface - risk of skidding!Dynamic shift programmeThe automatic gearbox of your
vehicle is controlled electronically. Shifting up and
down through the gears is performed auto
matically on the basis of pre-defined
driving programmes. Adopting a
moderate style of driving
will cause the gearbox to select the most
economical driving programme. Shifting up into a higher gear as soon as possible and shifting down as late as possible will
have a favourable effect on your fuel
consumption. Adopting a
sporty style of driving
with rapid movements of the accelerator pedal
combined with sharp acceleration and freq
uent changes in speed, exploiting the
top speed of the car or depressing the a
ccelerator pedal (kickdown function), will
cause the gearbox to switch over to this style of driving and shift down earlier with frequent changes in gears in comparison to the moderate style of driving. Selecting the most appropriate driving programme for the particular style of driving is a continuous process. Irrespective of this
it is, however, possible to switch or shift
down into a dynamic shift programme by
depressing the accelerator rapidly. The
gearbox shifts down into a lower gear matching the speed of the car and this allows you to accelerate rapidly (e.g. when overtaking) without having to depress the accelerator pedal fully into the kickdown
range. The original programme will be
reactivated to match your particular style
of driving once the gearbox has shifted up
again. When driving in hilly regions, the gears are selected to match uphill and downhill sections. This avoids the gearbox frequently
shifting up and down when negotiating
an uphill stretch. When driving downhill, it is possible to shift down into the Tiptronic position, in order to
exploit the engine brake torque.
Tiptronic The Tiptronic allows the driver to also shift gears manually.

Wheels and Tyres
238
The date of manufacture
is a lso s tated on the tyre wal l (poss ibly o nl y on the
inside
of wheel):
DOT ... 20 09...
means, for example, that the tyre was manufactured in the 20th week of the year 2009. Any
spare wheel
which differs from the tyres fitted to the vehicle (e.g. winter tyres
or low-profile tyres) should only be used
only for a short time in the event of a
puncture and when adopting an appropriately
cautious style of driving. It should be
replaced as quickly as po
ssible by a normal wheel.
WARNING
•
Only use those tyres or wheel rims
which have been approved for your
model of Škoda Auto vehicle. Failure to observe this instruction will adversely affect the road safety of your vehicle - risk of accident! Approval and licencing of your vehicle on public roads may also become void as a result.•
You must on no account drive at a higher speed than is permissible for
y our t yre s - ris k of a n ac cid e n t re su lti ng fro m ty re d a m ag e a nd lo ss o f c ont rol over your vehicle.•
Tyres which are 6 years old or more should only be fitted in exceptional
cases and when adopting an appropriately cautious style of driving.•
Never fit tyres which have already been used without having adequate
knowledge of their previous history. Ty
res age even if they have not been
used at all or only very little. A spare tyre must only be used in exceptional cases and only then when adopting an appropriately cautious style of driving.•
Do not, where possible, replace indivi
dual tyres but at least replace them
on both wheels of a given axle at the same time. Always fit the tyres with the deeper tread depth to the front wheels.
For the sake of the environment
Old tyres must be disposed
of in conformity with the appropriate regulations.
Note
It is not normally possible to fit wheels
from other models of cars for technical
reasons. This may also apply in certain
circumstances to the wheels of the same
type of vehicle.Wheel boltsWheels and
wheel bolts
are matched to each other in
terms of design. Each time
you fit other wheels - e.g. light alloy wheels
or wheels with winter tyres - you must
therefore also use the matching wheel bolts of the correct length and shape of spherical cap. This is essent
ial to ensure that the wheels are tightly fitted and that
the brake system operates properly. If you retrofit
wheel trims
(or have this done), please also ensure that an adequate
flow of air remains assured for cooling the brake system. The authorised Škoda Service Partners are instructed in the technical possibilities which exist regarding converting or retrofitting tyres, wheels and wheel trims.
WARNING
•
In case of incorrect treatment of th
e wheel bolts, the
wheel can loosen
when the car is moving - risk of accident!•
The wheel bolts must be clean and must
turn easily. However, they must
never be treated with grease or oil.•
If the wheel bolts are tightened to a too low tightening torque, the rim
can lossen when the car is moving - risk of accident! A tightening torque which is too high can damage the bolts and threads and this can result in permanent deformation of the contact surfaces on the rims.
Caution
The prescribed tightening torque of the wh
eel bolts for steel and light alloy wheels
is 120 Nm.

page 248.
– Mount the full wheel trim/w
heel trim cap or the caps.
Note
•
All bolts must be clean
and must turn easily.
•
You must never grease or oil the wheel bolts!
•
When fitting on unidirectional tyres, ensure that the tyres rotate in the correct
direction
⇒page 235.
Subsequent stepsAfter changing the wheel, you must perform the following steps. – Stow and attach the replaced wheel in the spare wheel well using a
special screw
⇒
page 245, fig. 216
.
– Stow the vehicle tool kit in the space provided.–
Check
the
tyre pressure
on the spare wheel just mounted as soon as
possible.
– Have the
tightening torque
of the wheel bolts
checked
with a torque
wrench as soon as possible. Steel and light alloy wheels must be tight-ened to a tightening torque of
120 Nm
.
– Have the defective tyre repaired as soon as possible.
WARNING
It is necessary to observe the guidelines given on
⇒page 237 if the vehicle is
subsequently fitted with tyres which are
different to those it was fitted with
at the works.

•
If you find, when changing the wheel,
that the wheel bolts are corroded and
difficult to turn, the bolts mu
st be replaced before chec
king the tightening torque.
•
Drive cautiously and only at a moderate speed to a workshop where the tight-
ening torque can be checked.Full wheel trim*Pulling off – Hook the clamp found in the vehicle tool kit into the reinforced edge
of the full wheel trim.
– Push the wheel key through the clamp, support the wheel key at the
tyre and pull off the wheel trim.
Installing – First press the full wheel trim onto the wheel at the valve opening
provided. Then press the full wheel trim into the wheel in such a way that its entire circumference locks correctly in place. Caution
•

120 Nm
.
The safety wheel bolts on vehicles fitted with them (one safety wheel bolt per wheel) can only be loosened or tigh
ten up by using the adapter provided.
It is meaningful to note the code numbe
r hammered into the rear side of the
adapter or the rear side of the safety wheel bolts. You can obtain a replacement adapter from an authorised Škoda Service Partner, if necessary, by quoting this number. We recommend that you always carry the
adapter for the wheel bolts with you in
the vehicle. It should be st
owed in the vehicle tool kit.
Caution
Damage can occur to the adapter and safety
wheel bolt if the safety wheel bolt is
tightened up too much.
Note
The set of safety wheel bolts can be obta
ined from an authorised Škoda Service
Par tner.Jump-startingInitial stepsYou can use the battery of another vehicl
e for jump-starting yours if the engine
does not start because the battery on your
vehicle is flat. You will require jump-start
cables for this purpose.
Both batteries must have a rated voltage of 12 V. The
capacity
(Ah) of the battery
supplying the power must not be signific
antly less than the capacity of the
discharged battery
in your vehicle.
Jump-start cables Only use jump-start cables which have an
adequately large cross-section and insu-
lated terminal clamps. Please pay attent
ion to the manufacturer's instructions.
Positive cable -
colour coding in the
majority of cases red.
Negative cable -
colour coding in the majority of cases black.
WARNING
•
A discharged battery may already freeze
at temperatures just below 0°C.
In case of frozen battery carry out no jump-starting - risk of explosion!•
Please pay attention to the warning instructions relating to working in
the engine compartment
⇒page 223, “Working in the engine compart-
ment”.
Note
•
There must not be any contact between the two vehicles otherwise current may
flow as soon as the negative terminals are connected.•
The discharged battery must be proper
ly connected to the system of the
vehicle.•
Switch off any mobile phone, pay attent
ion to the instructions for use of the
mobile phone in such a situation.•
We recommend purchasing jump-start cabl
es from Škoda Service Partners as a
Škoda original accessory or from retailers who sell branded batteries.
