The seat backrests must be securely latched in position so that no ob-
jects from the luggage compartment can slip into the passenger compart-
ment under sudden braking – risk of injury.

Roof rack
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Attachment points

Roof load
109WARNING■ The transported items on the roof rack must be securely attached – risk
of accident!■
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps
or tensioning straps.
108Operation
Page 112 of 252
WARNING (Continued)■Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.■When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
the roof rack system, handling of the car may change as a result of the dis-
placement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed must
therefore be adapted to the current circumstances.■
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traf-
fic conditions.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and permissible total ve-
hicle weight must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of acci-
dent!
CAUTION
■ Only roof racks from the ŠKODA Original Accessories range should be used.■The fitting instructions supplied with the roof luggage rack system must be
observed when handling roof racks.■
On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof or a panoramic sliding roof,
ensure that the opened sliding/tilting roof or the panoramic sliding roof does
not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
■
Ensure that the boot lid does not hit the roof load when opened.
■
The height of the vehicle changes after mounting a roof luggage rack system
and the load that is secured to it. Compare the vehicle height with available
clearances, such as underpasses and garage doors.
■
Always remove the roof luggage rack system before entering an automated
car wash.
■
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the secured load.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in higher fuel consumption.Attachment points

Perform the assembly and disassembly according to the enclosed instructions.
CAUTION
Observe the information regarding the assembly and disassembly in the en-
closed instructions.
Roof load
Read and observe
and on page 108 first.
The maximum permissible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and
the maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle should not be exceeded.
The full permissible roof load cannot be used if a roof rack system with a lower
load carrying capacity is used. In this case, the roof rack system must only be
loaded up to the maximum weight limit specified in the fitting instructions.

Air conditioning system
Heating, ventilation, cooling
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Air outlets

Using the air conditioning system economically
111
Operational problems
112
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
If the cooling system is switched on, the temperature and air humidity drops in
the vehicle. The cooling system prevents the windows from misting up during
winter months.
It is possible to briefly activate recirculated air mode to enhance the cooling
effect.
Please refer to the information regarding recirculated air mode for the air con-
ditioning system » page 114 or for Climatronic » page 117.
WARNING■
For your own safety and that of other road users, ensure that all the win-
dows are free of ice, snow and misting. Please familiarize yourself about
how to correctly operate the heating and ventilation systems, how to de-
mist and defrost the windows, as well as with the cooling mode.■
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for
the use of the cooling system are to be observed. ■The difference between the indoor temperature and the outdoor air
temperature should not be greater than about 5 ° C.
■ The cooling system is to be turned off about 10 minutes before the end
of the journey.
■ Once a year, a disinfection of the air conditioner or the Climatronic is to
be carried out by a specialist company.
CAUTION■ The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free (e.g. of ice, snow or
leaves) to ensure that the heating and cooling system operates properly.■
After switching on the cooling Condensation from the evaporator of the air
conditioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is not a
leak.
Note
■ The exhaust air streams out through vents at the rear of the luggage com-
partment.■
We recommend that you do not smoke in the vehicle when the recirculating
air mode is operating since the smoke which is drawn at the evaporator from
the interior of the vehicle forms deposits in the evaporator of the air condition-
ing system. This produces a permanent odour when the air conditioning sys-
tem is operating which can only be eliminated through considerable effort and
expense (replacement of compressor).

We recommend that you do not use this setting in countries with high humidity levels. This can result in heavy cooling of the window glass and the following fogging from outside.
We recommend that you leave the air outlet vents 3 » Fig. 123 on page 110 in
the opened position.
Recirculated air mode
Read and observe
on page 112 first.
Recirculated air mode prevents polluted air outside the vehicle from getting in-to the vehicle, for example when driving through a tunnel or when standing in
a traffic jam.
Switching on/off
›
Press the button.
The warning light in the button illuminates.
›
Press the button again.
The warning light in the button goes out.
Recirculated air mode is switched off automatically if the air distribution con- trol C » Fig. 125 on page 112 is turned to the position.
Recirculated air mode can be switched on again from this setting by pressing the
button again.WARNINGDo not leave recirculated air mode on over a longer period of time, as
“stale” air can cause fatigue of the driver and passengers, reduce attention
levels and also cause the windows to mist up. The risk of having an acci-
dent increases. Switch off recirculated air mode as soon as the windows
start to mist up.114Operation

The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature and
to demist the windows in the interior of the car.

Set the required temperature between +18 °C and +26 °C: we recommend 22
°C.
›
Press the button
» Fig. 126 on page 115 .

Set the air outlet vents 2 and 3 » Fig. 123 on page 110 so that the air flow is
directed slightly upwards.
After pressing, a warning light in the top right or left corner of the button
illuminates, depending on which mode was last selected.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button illuminates, the
Climatronic operates in “HIGH”-mode.
The “HIGH” mode is the standard setting of the Climatronic.
Upon pressing the button again, the Climatronic switches to “LOW”-mode
and the warning light in the top left corner illuminates. The Climatronic uses
only in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the
noise level, this is more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of
the air conditioning system is reduced particularly if the vehicle is fully occu-
pied.
By pressing the button
again, it is changed to “HIGH”-mode.
Automatic mode can be switched off by pressing any of the air distribution
buttons or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed.

If a temperature higher than +26 °C is selected, a red symbol illuminates at the
start of the numerical scale.
