WARNINGNever engage reverse gear when driving – risk of accident!
CAUTION
If not in the process of changing gear, do not leave your hand on the gearshiftlever while driving. The pressure from the hand can cause the gearshift mecha-nism to wear excessively.
Pedals
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 125.
The operation of the pedals must not be hindered under any circumstances!
In the driver's footwell, only a footmat, which is attached to the two correspond-
ing attachment points, may be used.
Only use factory-supplied footmats or footmats from the range of ŠKODA Original
Accessories, which are fitted to two attachment points.
WARNINGNo objects may be placed in the driver's footwell – risk due to obstruction or
limitation of pedal operation.

Never move the selector lever to mode R or P when driving – risk of an acci-
dent!
■
When the vehicle is stationery and the engine is running, you need to hold
the vehicle with the brake pedal in mode D, S or R. Even when the engine is
idling, the power transmission is never completely interrupted – the vehicle
creeps.
CAUTION
■ If you moved the selector lever to mode N while driving, you need to release the
accelerator pedal and wait until the engine has reached its idling speed, before
you can move the selector lever to a forward driving mode again.■
At temperatures below -10 °C the engine can only be started in the selector lev-
er position P.
■
When trying to stop on a slope, never try to hold the vehicle using the accelera-
tor pedal – this may lead to gear damage.
Note
After the ignition is switched off, the ignition key can only be withdrawn if the se-
lector lever is in the position P.

Defective selector lever lock
If the selector lever lock is defective or its power supply is interrupted (e.g. dis-
charged vehicle battery, blown fuse), the selector lever can no longer be moved
out of position P in the normal manner, and the vehicle can no longer be moved.
The selector lever must be unlocked specially » page 233.
Note
If the gearbox has switched to the emergency programme, visit a specialist ga-
rage.
Running in
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
New engine
129
New tyres
129
New brake pads
130
New engine
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 129.
The engine has to be run in during the first 1 500 kilometres.Up to 1 000 kilometres
›
Do not drive faster than 3/4 of the maximum speed of the gear in use, i.e. 3/4 of
the maximum permissible engine speed.
›
No full throttle.
›
Avoid high engine speeds.
›
Do not tow a trailer.
From 1 000 up to 1 500 kilometres
Gradually increase the power output of the engine up to the full speed of the
gear engaged, i.e. up to the maximum permissible engine speed.
The red scale of the rev counter indicates the range in which the system beginsto limit the engine speed.
During the first operating hours the engine has higher internal friction than later
until all of the moving parts have harmonized. The driving style which you adopt
during the first approx.1 500 kilometres plays a decisive part in the success of
running in your car.
Never drive at unnecessarily high engine speeds, even after the running-in period is complete.
On vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox, at the very latest shift up into the next
gear when the red area is reached. Observe the recommended gear » page 24,
Gear recommendation . Very high engine speeds when accelerating (accelerator)
are automatically restricted »
.
With vehicles with a manual gearbox, do not drive at unnecessarily low engine
speeds. Shift down a gear when the engine is no longer running smoothly. Ob-
serve the recommended gear » page 24, Gear recommendation .
CAUTION
■
The engine is not protected from excessive engine revs caused by shifting
down at the wrong time. This can result in the sudden increase in revs beyond
the permissible maximum rpm and thus cause engine damage.■
Never rev up a cold engine when the vehicle is stationary or when driving in in-
dividual gears.
For the sake of the environment
Do not drive at unnecessarily high engine speeds. Shifting up sooner helps save
on fuel, reduces engine noises and protects the environment.
New tyres
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 129.
New tyres must firstly be “run in”, as they do not offer optimal grip at first. There-fore, drive especially carefully for the first 500 km or so.
129Starting-off and Driving
Page 133 of 266
New brake padsFirst read and observe the introductory information given on page 129.
New brake pads do not initially provide optimal braking performance. They first
need to be “run in”. Therefore, drive especially carefully for the first 200 km or so.

The technical requirements for low fuel usage and economic efficiency of the ve-
hicle have already been built into the vehicle at the works. ŠKODA places a partic-
ular emphasis on minimising negative effects on the environment.
It is necessary to take note of the guidelines given in this chapter in order tomake best use of these characteristics and to maintain their effectiveness.
Fuel consumption, environmental pollution and the wear to the engine, brakes
and tyres depend essentially on the following three factors:
› your personal driving style
› operating conditions
› technical requirements
The fuel economy by can be improved by 10 -15 % by always looking ahead and
driving in an economical way.
Fuel consumption is also be influenced by external factors which are beyond the
driver's control. Consumption increases during the winter or under difficult condi-
tions, on poor roads, etc.
Fuel consumption can vary considerably from the manufacturer's data, as a result
of outside temperatures, the weather and driving style.
The optimal engine speed should be obtained when accelerating, in order to
avoid a high fuel consumption and resonance of the vehicle.
CAUTION
All the speed and engine revolution figures apply only when the engine is at its
normal operating temperature.
Looking ahead
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 130.
A vehicle's highest fuel consumption occurs when accelerating, therefore unnec-
essary accelerating and braking should be avoided. If looking ahead when driving, less braking and consequently less accelerating are required.
If possible, let your vehicle coast to a stop, or use the engine brake, if you can see that the next set of traffic lights is on red, for example.

At a higher speed, a water wave can form in front of the vehicle which can causewater to penetrate into the air induction system of the engine or into other partsof the vehicle.›
Never stop in the water, do not reverse and do not switch the engine off.
›
Deactivate the START-STOP system before driving through water » page 149.
Off-road driving
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 134.
Only drive on such roads and in such terrain, which match the vehicle parame-
ters » page 244 , Technical data as well as your driving skills.
The driver is always responsible for deciding whether the vehicle can handle trav-
elling in the given terrain.
When travelling off paved roads, we recommend activating the OFF ROAD
mode » page 138 .
Driving abroad
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Unleaded petrol
135
Headlights
135
In certain countries, it may be possible that the ŠKODA service partner network is
limited or has not been established. This is the reason why procuring certain
spare parts may be somewhat complicated and specialist garages may only be
able to make limited repairs.
Unleaded petrol
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 135.
A vehicle fitted with a petrol engine must always be refuelled with unleaded pet-rol » page 197 . Information regarding the locations of filling stations that offer
unleaded petrol is, for example, provided by the automobile associations.
Headlights
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 135.
The low beam of your headlights is set asymmetrically. It illuminates the side of
the road on which the vehicle is being driven to a greater extent.
When driving in countries in which the traffic drives on the other side of the road
than in your home country, the asymmetrical low beam may dazzle oncoming
drivers. In order to avoid this, the headlights must be adjusted at a specialist ga-
rage.
Headlights with Xenon lights can be adjusted in the menu of the MAXI DOT dis-
play » page 28 .
Note
You can find out more information on adjusting the headlights at a specialist ga-
rage.
135Starting-off and Driving
Page 141 of 266
The HBA is activated by very quick operation of the brake pedal. In order to ach-
ieve the shortest possible braking distance, the brake pedal must be applied firm-
ly until the vehicle has come to a standstill.
The HBA function is automatically deactivated when the brake pedal is released.
The ABS is activated faster and more effectively with the intervention of the HBA.
Hill Hold Control (HHC)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 136.
When driving on slopes, HHC allows you to move your foot from the brake pedalto the accelerator pedal without having to use the handbrake.
The system holds the brake pressure produced by the activation of the brakepedal for approx. 2 seconds after the brake pedal is released.
The brake pressure drops gradually the more you operate the accelerator pedal. If the vehicle does not start off within 2 seconds, it starts to roll back.
The HHC is active from a 5% slope if the driver's door is closed. HHC is only ever
active on slopes when in forward or reverse start off. When driving downhill, it is
inactive.
OFF ROAD-mode

Operation
138
Activation / deactivation
140
The OFF ROAD mode supports the driver when driving away from paved roads.
But even with OFF ROAD mode activated, your vehicle is never a true SUV.
WARNING■ A lack of fuel can cause irregular engine running or cause the engine to shut
down. This would lead the OFF ROAD mode to lose its effectiveness - risk of accident!■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the current visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions.
■
The increased safety offered by the OFF ROAD mode must not tempt you to
take greater risks than otherwise - risk of an accident!
CAUTION
■ The OFF ROAD mode is not designed for the use on common roads.■All four wheels must be fitted with the same tyres approved by the manufactur-
er to ensure theOFF ROAD mode operates correctly.
Operation
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 138.
The OFF ROAD mode is ready to intervene at speeds below 30 km / hr. The readi-
ness of the system is the warning light
displayed in the instrument cluster.
The following functions are integrated in the OFF ROAD mode.
› Downhill Drive Support.
› Start-Off Assist.
› ABS OFF ROAD.
› TCS OFF ROAD.
› EDL OFF ROAD.
Downhill Drive Support
The hill descent assistant, with its automatic braking action on all wheels, en-
sures a constant speed on a steep slope when driving forwards and reversing.
The speed maintained corresponds to the speed of the vehicle at the time the As- sistant was first engaged.
During an intervention of the Assistants, the warning light
flashes in the in-
strument cluster.
By pressing the accelerator or brake pedal, the speed can be increased or re- duced. This is true even if the shift lever is in the neutral position and the selector
lever in the N position.

Function
141
Activation/deactivation
141WARNING■ The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when reversing the vehicle
or carrying out similar manoeuvres. Pay particular attention to small children
and animals as they may not be recognised by the system sensors.■
Before reversing, you should make sure that there are no small obstacles,
such as rocks, thin posts, trailer drawbars etc. in front or behind your vehicle.
Such obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of cloth-
ing cannot reflect the system signals. Thus, these objects or people who wear such clothing are not recognised by the System sensors.
■
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the system. Under
adverse conditions, this can cause objects or people to not be recognized by
the system.
CAUTION
■ If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after activating the system and
there is no obstacle close to your car, this indicates a system fault. The fault is
also indicated by the symbol flashing in the button » Fig. 119 on page 141 .
Seek help from a specialist garage.■
The sensors must be kept clean (free of ice, etc.) to enable the system to oper-
ate properly.
■
The system function may be limited under adverse weather conditions (heavy
rain, water vapour, very low or high temperatures etc.).
■
Additionally installed modules such as bicycle carriers can impair the function of
the parking aid.
Note
■ The signal tones for front obstacle recognition are factory-set to be higher than
for rear obstacle recognition.■
If not all fields around the vehicle are shown after the system is activated, the
vehicle will need to be moved a few metres forwards or in reverse.
■
The sound of the park-assist can be adjusted via the MAXI DOT display in the
Assistants menu option » page 29.
■
If the system is activated and the selector lever of the automatic gearbox is in
position P (the vehicle cannot move), the warning tone is interrupted and no ob-
stacles are displayed.

traffic conditions.
■
Make sure that the camera lens is not dirty or covered, otherwise the sys-
tem function can be significantly impaired. For information on clean-
ing » page 191 , Camera lens
■
The camera lens distorts and enlarges the field of view of the difference in
eye sight. Objects are displayed deformed.
CAUTION
■ The system can be used only if tailgate is fully closed.■Some items, such as thin columns, chain link fences or lattice may not be repre-
sented adequately in terms of display resolution.■
It is only a two-dimensional display. Therefore, protruding objects or roadway
depressions, for example, may not be recognised due to lack of space depth.
■
In a crash or damage the vehicle's rear camera can possibly deviate from the
correct position. If this is the case, have the sensor checked by a specialist ga-
rage.
CAUTIONWe recommend that you do not use the system in the following situations.■The display is poor, such as when visibility is poor or in the event of a dirty lens.■
The rear of the vehicle is heavily loaded (the area displayed behind the vehicle is
too short).
CAUTION
The objects shown in the display can be closer or even further away than they ap-
pear. This is especially the case in the following situations.■
When driving from a horizontal surface into a slope or a depression.
