Diesel particulate filter (diesel engine)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 14.
The diesel particulate filter separates the soot particles from the exhaust. The
soot particles collect in the diesel particulate filter where they are burnt on a reg-
ular basis.
If the indicator light
lights up , soot has accumulated in the filter.
To clean the filter, and where traffic conditions permit »
, drive as follows for at
least 15 minutes or until the indicator light
goes out.
4 or 5 Gear engaged (automatic transmission: position S).
Vehicle speed at least 70 km/h.
Engine speed between 1800-2500 rpm.
If the filter is properly cleaned, the warning icon
goes out .
If the filter is not properly cleaned, the warning light
does not go out and the

begins to flash.
The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display. Diesel particle filter: Owner's manual!
The system allows the vehicle to run in emergency mode. After switching the ig- nition off and on again the indicator light, the indicator light
also lights up .
Seek assistance from a specialist garage immediately.
WARNING■ The diesel particle filter achieves very high temperatures. Therefore do not
park in areas where the hot filter can come into direct contact with dry grass
or other combustible materials – there is the risk of fire!■
Always adjust your speed to suit weather, road, region and traffic condi-
tions. The recommendations indicated by the indicator light must not tempt
you to disregard the national regulations for road traffic.
CAUTION
■ As long as the indicator light lights up, one must take into account an in-
creased fuel consumption and in certain circumstances a power reduction of the
engine.■
Using diesel fuel with an increased sulphur content can considerably reduce the
life of the diesel particle filter. A ŠKODA partner will be able to tell you which
countries use diesel fuel with a high sulphur content.
Note
■ To assist the combustion process of the soot particles in the filter, we recom-
mend that regularly driving short distances be avoided.■
If the engine is turned off during the filter cleaning process or shortly after-
wards, the cooling fan may turn on automatically for a few minutes.
Fuel reserve
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 14.

Rear mirror
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror
59
Exterior mirrors
59WARNING■ Make sure that the mirror is not covered by ice, snow, mist or other objects.■Convex (curved outward) or aspheric exterior mirrors increase the field of vi-
sion. They do, however, make objects appear smaller in the mirror. These mir-
rors are therefore only of limited use for estimating distances to the following
vehicles.■
Whenever possible use the interior mirror for estimating the distances to
the following vehicles.
■
The illuminated display of an external navigation unit can lead to operation-
al faults to the automatic dimming interior mirror – risk of accident.
WARNING■ Automatic dimming mirrors contain an electrolytic fluid which may leak
should the mirror glass break.■
The leaking electrolytic fluid can irritate the skin, eyes and breath apparatus.
Immediately seek out fresh air and leave the vehicle. If this is not possible, at
least open the window.
■
If you swallow electrolytic fluid, seek medical assistance immediately.
■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immediately
wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water. Then con- sult a doctor immediately.

Fold in passenger's mirror
On vehicles fitted with the memory function for the driver's seat » page 63, the
mirror tilts down slightly when the reverse gear is engaged and the rotary knob is
in the position
or in position
on vehicles with right-hand drive » Fig. 38 . This
provides an aid in seeing the kerb of the pavement when parking the car.
The mirror returns into its initial position after the rotary knob is moved out of po-
sition
(or position
on vehicles with right-hand drive) and put into another posi-
tion or if the speed is more than 15 km/h.
This mode can be enabled or disabled via the Maxi DOT display in the Travel
mode » page 29 menu option.
Memory function for mirrors
On vehicles fitted with a memory function for the driver seat, the relevant setting for the exterior mirrors can also be stored automatically when the seat position is
stored » page 63 .WARNINGDo not touch the exterior mirror surfaces, if the exterior mirror heating is
switched on - hazard of burning.
CAUTION
Never mechanically fold in or fold back the exterior mirrors with the fold-in func-
tion by hand as this will damage the electric drive.
Note
■
The mirror heater only operates when the engine is running and up to an out-
side temperature of +35 ℃.■
If the power setting function fails at any time, the exterior mirrors can be set by
hand by pressing on the edge of the mirror surface.
