A removable lamp is fitted on the left side of the boot. This lamp has two func-

illuminated (lamp removed from the holder).
If the lamp is in the holder, it is automatically switched on when the tailgate is
opened and switched off again when the tailgate is closed.
The lamp is supplied by three rechargeable type AAA batteries. The rechargea-
ble batteries are constantly charged when the engine is running. It takes ap-
prox. 3 hours to fully charge the rechargeable batteries.
The lamp is fitted with magnets. Therefore it is possible to attach the lamp, for example on the vehicle body, after removing it.
CAUTION
The removable lamp is not watertight and must therefore be protected against
moisture.
Note
■ If the lamp is not correctly inserted into the holder, it does not light up when
the boot lid is opened and the rechargeable batteries are not charged.■
If the lamp is not switched off and it is correctly inserted in the holder, the
bulbs in the front part

CAUTION
We recommend having faulty rechargeable batteries replaced by a ŠKODA
service partner. If the lamp is not correctly opened, it can be damaged.
For the sake of the environment
Dispose of used rechargeable batteries in accordance with national legal provi- sions.
Note
■ Pay attention to the correct polarity when changing the rechargeable batter-
ies.■
The replacement rechargeable batteries must have the same specification as
the original rechargeable batteries. If other types of rechargeable batteries are
used, the power output can be reduced or it can lead to a malfunction of the

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, the handling of the car may change as a result of the
displacement 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.■When dealing with roof racks, the installation instructions supplied with the
roof luggage rack system must be observed.■
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

Perform the assembly and disassembly according to the enclosed instructions.
CAUTION
Observe the information regarding the assembly and disassembly in the en-

Roof load
Read and observe
and on page 106 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.

If your vehicle has already been factory-fitted with a towing device or is fitted
with a towing device from ŠKODA Original Accessories, then it meets all of the
technical requirements and national legal regulations for towing a trailer.
Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pin power socket for the electrical connection
between the vehicle and trailer. If the trailer that is to be towed has a 7-pin
connector , you can use a suitable adapter from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
The maximum trailer drawbar load is 80 kg.
WARNING■
Check that the tow bar is seated correctly and is secured in the mounting
recess before the start of every journey.■
Do not use the tow bar if it is not correctly inserted and secured in the
mounting recess.
■
Do not use the towing device if it is damaged or if there are parts missing.
■
Do not modify or adapt the towing device in any way.
■
Never release the tow bar while the trailer is still coupled.
CAUTION
Take care when handling the tow bar so as to avoid damaging the paintwork
on the bumper.DescriptionFig. 153
Carrier for the towing device/tow bar
Read and observe
and on page 163 first.
The tow bar can be removed and is kept in the spare wheel compartment or in

CAUTION■After removing the key, always replace the cap on the lock of the operating
lever – risk of dirt getting into the lock.■
Keep the mounting recess of the towing equipment clean at all times. Such
dirt prevents the ball head from being attached securely.

The ball head is released in this position and falls freely into the hand. If it
does not fall freely into the hand, use your other hand to push it upwards.
At the same time, the tow bar latches into the ready position and is therefore
ready to be re-inserted into the mounting recess »

Place the cap

» Fig. 153 on page 163 onto the mounting recess.
WARNINGNever allow the tow bar to remain unsecured in the boot. This could cause
boot damage on sudden braking, and could put the safety of the occupants
at risk. 165Towing a trailer

CAUTION■If the lever is held firm and not pushed downwards as far as it can go, it will
go back up after the ball head is removed and will not latch into the ready po-
sition. The tow bar will then need to be brought into this position before the
next time it is fitted.■
Stow the ball head in the ready position with the key inserted in the box.
When doing so, make the side opposite to the inserted key face downwards –
there is a risk of damaging the key.
■
Do not use excessive force when handling the operating lever (e.g. do not
step on it).
Note
■ We recommend putting the protective cover onto the ball head before re-
moving the tow bar.■
Clean any dirt from the tow bar before stowing it away in the box with the
vehicle tool kit.
Use and care
Read and observe
and on page 163 first.
Close the mounting recess with the cover to prevent any dirt from getting in.
Always check the tow bar before hitching a trailer. Apply suitable grease
where necessary.
Use the protective cover when stowing away the tow bar, in order to stop the
boot from getting dirty.
In the event of dirt, clean the surfaces of the mounting recess and treat with a
suitable preservative.
CAUTION
Apply grease to the upper part of the mounting recess. Make sure you do not
remove any grease.

Loading a trailer

Driving with a trailer
167Trailer stabilisation (TSA)168Anti-theft alarm system168WARNINGAlways drive particularly carefully with the trailer.
Loading a trailer
Read and observe
on page 166 first.
The vehicle/trailer combination must be balanced, whereby the maximum per-
missible drawbar load must be utilised. If the drawbar load is too low, it jeop-
ardises the performance of the vehicle/trailer combination.
Distribution of the load
Distribute the load in the trailer in such a way that heavy items are located as
close to the axle as possible. Secure the items from slipping.
The distribution of the weight is very poor if your vehicle is unladen and the
trailer is laden. Maintain a particularly low speed if you cannot avoid driving
with this combination.
Tyre pressure
Correct the tyre inflation pressure on your vehicle for a “full load” » page 194,
Service life of tyres .
Trailer load
The permissible trailer load must not be exceeded under any circumstan- ces » page 224 , Technical data .
The trailer loads specified apply only to altitudes up to 1 000 metres above
mean sea level.
The engine output falls as altitude increases, as does the vehicle's climbing
power. Therefore, for every additional 1000 m in height (or part), the maximum
permissible towed weight must be reduced by 10%.
The towed weight is made up of the actual weights of the loaded towing vehi-
cle and the loaded trailer.
The trailer and drawbar load information on the type plate of the towing de-
vice is merely a test value for the towing device. The vehicle-specific values
are detailed in the vehicle documents. 
