WARNINGFor the vehicle systems to function correctly, and thus for safe driving,
there must be sufficient fuel in the tank. Never drain the fuel tank com-
pletely – risk of accident!
CAUTION
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! The irregular supply of fuel
can cause misfiring. This can result in considerable damage to parts of the en-
gine and the exhaust system.
Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates ap-
prox. a fraction less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the fuel
gauge displays the correct fuel level again. This is not a fault.Counter for distance drivenFig. 26

distance from the traffic, switch off the engine and switch on the hazard
warning light system » page 68. Place the warning triangle at the prescri-
bed distance.
Note
■ If the MAXI DOT display shows warning messages, these messages must be
confirmed in order to access the main menu » page 41, Operation .■
As long as the operational faults are not rectified, the warning lights are al-

The warning lights indicate certain functions or faults.
Some warning lights can be accompanied by acoustic signals and messages in
the display of the instrument cluster.
After switching on the ignition, some warning lights light up briefly as a func-
tion test.
If the tested systems are OK, the corresponding warning lights go out a few
seconds after switching on the ignition or after starting the engine. 
32Using the system

 Engine performance check (petrol engine)Read and observe
on page 33 first.
 illuminates – there is a fault in the engine management system. The system
allows operation emergency mode - there may be a noticeable reduction in en-
gine performance.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
 Diesel particulate filter (diesel engine)
Read and observe
on page 33 first.
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
regular basis.
 Illuminates – the filter is clogged with soot.
To clean the filter, and where traffic conditions permit »
, drive as follows for
at least 15 minutes or until the indicator light  goes out.
4th or 5th gear engaged (automatic gearbox: position S).
Vehicle speed at least 70 km/h.
Engine speed between 1800-2500 rpm.
If the filter is properly cleaned, the warning light  extinguishes.
If the filter is not properly cleaned, the warning light  does not go out and
the warning light  begins to flash.
Diesel Particulate Filter: Owner´s manual!
The system allows the vehicle to run in emergency mode. After switching the
ignition off and on again the indicator light, the warning light  also illumi-
nates.
Seek help from a specialist garage.
WARNING■ Always adjust the speed and driving style to the actual weather, road, ter-
rain and traffic conditions.■
The diesel particulate filter reaches very high temperatures - there is a
fire hazard and serious injury could be caused. Therefore, never stop the
vehicle at places where the underside of your vehicle can come into contact
with flammable materials such as dry grass, undergrowth, leaves, spilled
fuel or such like.
CAUTION
■ As long as the warning light  illuminates, one must take into account an
increased fuel consumption and 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.

Note
The text in the display goes out only after refuelling and driving a short dis-
tance.

WARNINGInstructions for filling the reserve canister■Never fill the reserve can inside the vehicle.■
Never place the reserve can on the vehicle.
■
Always place the reserve can on the floor.
■
We do not recommend carrying any fuel canisters in your vehicle for safe-
ty reasons. in the event of an accident, these canisters can become dam-
aged and fuel may escape – risk of fire!
CAUTION
■ The fuel tank is full just as soon as the pump nozzle switches off for the first
time, provided the nozzle has been operated properly. Not continue refuelling.■
Be careful when filling diesel fuel from the spare canister and then do this
slowly and cautiously – danger of contaminating the body.
NoteThe fuel capacity for vehicles with front wheel drive is about 55 litres, and for
vehicles with four-wheel drive about 60 litres, with about 9 litres as reserve.
Lead-free petrol
The correct fuel grades for your vehicle are specified on the inside of the fuel
filler flap.
Read and observe
and on page 160 first.
The vehicle can only be operated with unleaded petrol in compliance with the
EN 228 1)
standard.
All petrol engines can be operated using petrol that contains at most 10% bio-
ethanol (E10).
Unleaded petrol 95/91 or 92 or 93 RON/ROZ
We recommend using unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 95 RON. Unlea-
ded petrol with the octane ratings 91, 92 or 93 RON can also be used, but may
result in a slight loss in performance and slightly increased fuel consumption.
Unleaded petrol min. 95 RON / ROZ
Use unleaded fuel with the octane rating 95 RON or higher.
In an emergency petrol with the octane ratings 91, 92 and/or 93 RON can also
be used, but may result in a slight loss in performance and slightly increased
fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Continue driving at medium engine
speeds and minimum engine load »
.
Refuel using petrol of the prescribed octane number as soon as possible.
Unleaded petrol 98/(95) RON / ROZ
We recommend using unleaded fuel with an octane rating of 98 RON or higher.
Unleaded petrol 95 RON can also be used but this results in a slight loss in per-
formance and slightly increased fuel consumption.
In an emergency petrol with the octane ratings 91, 92 and/or 93 RON can also
be used, but may result in a slight loss in performance and slightly increased
fuel consumption and exhaust emissions. Continue driving at medium engine
speeds and minimum engine load »
.
Refuel using petrol of the prescribed octane number as soon as possible. 
1)
In Germany also DIN 51626-1 or E10 for unleaded petrol with octane number 91 or 95 or DIN 51626-2 or E5
for unleaded petrol with octane number 95 and 98.
