Materials defect liability and ŠKODAwarranty for new cars
Materials defect liability
Your ŠKODA Partner, as a vendor, is liable to you for material damage to your new ŠKODA car, ŠKODA Genuine Parts or ŠKODA Genuine Accessories in accordance
with statutory regulations and the purchase agreement.
ŠKODA warranty for new cars
As well as the materials defect liability, ŠKODA AUTO a.s. grants you the ŠKODA
warranty for new cars (hereinafter referred to as “ŠKODA warranty),” according to
the conditions described below.
As part of the ŠKODA warranty, ŠKODA AUTO a.s. will guarantee the following
services:
› Repair of damage to your vehicle that occurs within two years from the start of
the ŠKODA warranty;
› Repair of paint damage to your vehicle that occurs within three years from the
start of the ŠKODA warranty;
› Repair of rust perforation to the bodywork of your vehicle that occurs within
twelve years from the start of the warranty. Only rust perforation of body
sheets from the inside to the outside is included in the definition of rust perfo-
ration to bodywork and covered by the ŠKODA warranty.
The warranty starts on the date on which the original purchaser acquires the ve- hicle upon purchasing it from the ŠKODA Partner or the date of first registration.
Whichever event occurs first and is recorded by the ŠKODA Partner in the service
schedule accordingly is the one that applies.
Repairs may be carried out either by replacing the faulty part or by restoring it.
Replaced parts become the property of the ŠKODA Service Partner.
There shall be no further claims arising from the ŠKODA warranty. In particular,
there shall be no claims for replacement, cancellation, provision of a courtesy ve-
hicle for the duration of repairs or compensation for damages.
If your ŠKODA vehicle was purchased from a ŠKODA Partner in a country of the
European Economic Area (i.e. the countries of the European Union, Norway, Ice-
land and Liechtenstein) or in Switzerland, claims arising from the ŠKODA warranty
must also be made through a ŠKODA Service Partner in one of these countries.If your ŠKODA vehicle was purchased from a ŠKODA Partner outside the European Economic Area and Switzerland, claims arising from the ŠKODA warranty must al-
so be made through a ŠKODA Service Partner outside the European EconomicArea and Switzerland.
One of the conditions for service from the ŠKODA warranty is that all service work has been carried out in a timely and adequate manner and in accordance with the
manufacturer's provisions. It must be proven that service work has been carried
out properly and in accordance with the manufacturer's provisions when raising a
claim from the ŠKODA warranty. In the event of a missed service or failure to carry
out a service according to the manufacturer's provisions, you may still be entitled
to warranty claims as long as you can prove that the missed service or the failure
to carry out a service according to the manufacturer's provisions was not the
cause of the fault.
Natural wear and tear to your vehicle is not covered by the ŠKODA warranty. The ŠKODA warranty also does not cover faults to bodywork, installations or conver-
sions provided by third-parties, or vehicle faults caused as a result. The same ap-
plies to accessories that are not factory installed and/or delivered.
In addition, this warranty does not apply if the fault was caused by one of the fol-lowing:
› Unauthorized use, improper handling (e.g. use in racing competitions or over-
loading), improper care and maintenance or unapproved modification to your
vehicle;
› Non-compliance with provisions in the service schedule and the Owner's Man-
ual or other factory-supplied instructions;
› External causes or influences (e.g. accidents, hail, flooding etc.);
› Parts fitted on or in the vehicle, whose use has not been approved by ŠKODA
AUTO a.s., or modification of the vehicle in a manner not approved by ŠKODA
AUTO a.s. (e.g. tuning);
› Damage caused by you that was not immediately seen to by a specialist garage
or was not rectified properly.
It is the customer's responsibility to prove that it was not the cause.
This ŠKODA warranty does not affect the purchaser's statutory rights from mate- rials defect liability from the vehicle vendor and other potential claims from prod-
uct liability laws.

Mobility warranty and ŠKODA extendedwarranty
Mobility warranty
The mobility warranty provides a sense of security when travelling in your vehicle.
As part of the mobility warranty, if your car breaks down when you are on the
move as a result of an unexpected fault, you can access services to ensure your
continued mobility. These services include the following: Breakdown service at
the breakdown location and towing to the ŠKODA Service Partner, technical as-
sistance by phone or on-site operation.
If your vehicle is not repaired on the same day, the ŠKODA Service Partner may
provide further services as required, such as replacement transportation (bus,
train etc.) or a courtesy vehicle etc.
More information regarding terms and conditions for the provision of a mobility
warranty for your vehicle can be obtained from your ŠKODA Partner. They will also
provide you with detailed terms and conditions for the mobility warranty with re-
spect to your vehicle. In the event that there is no mobility warranty coverage
available for your vehicle, you should check with any ŠKODA Service Partnerabout the possibility of a subsequent agreement.
Note
The mobility warranty is only available for some countries.
Optional ŠKODA extended warranty
If you received a ŠKODA extended warranty when purchasing your new car, the
two-year ŠKODA warranty for damages to your ŠKODA vehicle will be extended to your chosen duration or until the specified mileage limit has been reached, which-
ever occurs first.
The previously mentioned paint warranty and the warranty against rust perfora-
tion are unaffected by the extended warranty.
Detailed conditions for the extended warranty are included in the extended war- ranty terms and conditions, which your ŠKODA Partner will have given to you
upon purchasing your new car.
NoteThe mobility warranty and optional ŠKODA extended warranty are only available
for some countries.

The wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wipers wipe somewhat later. The wash system and the windscreen wiper operate simultaneously at a
speed of more than 120 km/h.
01234567ALetting go of the lever will cause the windscreen wash system to stop and the
wiper to continue for another 3-4 wiper strokes (depending on the period of
spraying of the windscreen).
At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again 5 seconds after the
last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This func-
tion can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
Automatic wipe/wash for the rear window
The wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wiper wipes somewhat
later.
Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to stop and the wiper to continue for another 2-3 wiper strokes (depending on the spray-
ing duration). The operating lever remains in position 6

Automatic rear window wiping
If the lever is in position
2
or

» Fig. 36 , the rear window is wiped every
30 or 10 seconds if the vehicle's speed exceeds 5 km/h.
If automatic windscreen wiping in rain is activated (the operating lever is in the
position
1
) the function is only active if the windscreen wipers operate in contin-
uous mode (no break between each wiping process).
Automatic rear window wiping can be activated/deactivated via the MAXI DOT
display in the menu item Rear wiper » page 29 .
Winter setting of the windscreen wiper If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from thewindscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wipers in
winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily.
› Switch on the windscreen wipers.
› Switch off the ignition.
The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they were when switching
off the ignition.
The service position can also be used as a winter position » page 235.
Note
If the slow or the fast wiper setting is switched on and the vehicle speed decrea-
ses to below 4 km/h, the wiper speed is incrementally set to a lower wiper speed.
The original setting is restored step by step when the speed of the vehicle ex-
ceeds 8 km/h.
