WARNINGInformation about for side and head airbags■No objects (e.g. sun visors turned towards the windows) should be loca-
ted in the deployment area of the side and head airbags. No accessories
(e.g. cup holders etc.) should be fitted to the doors - There is a risk of an
injury!■
Hang only light clothing on the hooks in the vehicle, do not leave any
heavy or sharp objects in the pockets. Do not use hangers to hang up the
clothes.
■
The airbag system operates using pressure sensors located in the front
doors. For this reason, no adjustments may be carried out to the doors or
door panels (e.g. installation of additional loudspeakers). Additional infor-
mation » page 132 .
■
No excessive force, e.g. through blows, kicks etc. should be applied to the
seat backrests - there is a risk of damage to the side airbags. The side air-
bags would not be deployed in such a case!
■
Any seat or protective covers which you fit to the driver or front passen-
ger seats must only be of a type expressly authorised by ŠKODA AUTO. In
view of the fact that the airbag inflates out of the backrest of the seat, use
of non-approved seat or protective covers would considerably impair the
protective function of the side airbag.
■
Any damage to the original seat covers or stitching at the installation
points for the side airbags should be immediately repaired by a specialist
company.
WARNINGInformation on the use of the airbag system■Any work on the airbag system, including the installation and removal of
system components due to other repair work (e.g. removal of the steering
wheel), must only be carried out by a specialist garage. Additional informa-
tion » page 132 .■
No changes of any sort should be made to parts of the airbag system, the
front bumper or the bodywork.
■
Do not manipulate individual parts of the airbag system, as this might re-
sult in the airbag being deployed.
Airbag deactivation
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Deactivating airbags
19
Deactivating the front passenger airbag
20
Deactivating airbags
The front passenger airbag can be switched off with the key-operated switch
» Fig. 10 on page 20 -
.
We recommend that you ask a ŠKODA service partner to deactivate any other
airbags.
An indicator light indicates that the airbag has been deactivated
» page 36.
Deactivating an airbag should be considered in cases such as the ones below. ▶ If a child seat must be used on the front passenger seat, where the child is
transported facing towards the rear » page 21.
▶ If it is not possible to maintain a distance of at least 25 cm between the mid-
dle of the steering wheel and chest, despite the driver's seat being correctly
adjusted.
▶ If special attachments are required in the area of the steering wheel because
of a physical disability.
▶ If different seats have been fitted (e.g. orthopaedic seats without side air-
bags).
WARNINGIf an airbag is deactivated at the time of the vehicle being sold, the pur-
chaser must be informed!19Airbag system

Auto Check Control
Vehicle condition
Certain functions and conditions of individual vehicle systems are checked
continuously when the ignition is switched on. If there is a system failure, the
relevant message is displayed in the MAXI DOTDisplay, in conjunction with in-
dicator lights, if necessary, indicator light illumination takes place in the instru-
ment cluster » page 31, Warning lights .
The menu item Vehicle status
is shown in the main menu of the MAXI DOT dis-
play whenever at least one fault message exists. After selecting this menu,
the first of the error messages is displayed.
Several error messages are shown on the display under the message e.g. 1/3.
This indicates that the first of a total of three error messages is being dis-
played.

Unlocking/locking - KESSYFig. 31
Vehicle unlocking / vehicle locking
Read and observe
and on page 48 first.
The KESSY system (Keyless Entry Start Exit System) enables unlocking and
locking of the vehicle without actively using the remote control key.

the
vehicle.
When unlocking/locking the vehicle, the key must be at a maximum distance
of approximately 1.5 m from the front door handle.
Information on locking
On vehicles fitted with automatic gearbox, the selector lever must be moved
into the position P before unlocking.
The vehicle cannot be locked from the outside if the ignition has not been
turned off.
After locking the vehicle, it is not possible to unlock it within the next 2 sec-
onds by touching the door handle. This can be used to check whether the vehi-
cle is locked.
Protection against inadvertently locking the key in the vehicle
If one of the doors is closed after locking the vehicle and the key with which
the vehicle was locked remains in the passenger compartment, the vehicle is
automatically unlocked. After automatically unlocking, the turn signal lights
will flash four times. If no door is opened within 45 seconds, the vehicle is au-
tomatically locked again.
If the boot lid is closed after locking the vehicle and the key with which the vehicle was locked remains in the luggage compartment, the lid is automatical-
ly unlatched (partially opened). After automatically unlocking, the turn signal
lights will flash four times. The boot lid remains unlatched (partially opened);
the other doors remain locked.
CAUTION
Some types of gloves can affect the unlocking or locking device via the sen-
sors in the door handle.

Force limiter
Read and observe
and on page 53 first.
The electric windows are fitted with a force limiter.
If there is an obstacle, the closing process is stopped and the window goes
down by several centimetres.
If the obstacle prevents the window from being closed during the next 10 sec-
onds, the closing process is interrupted once again and the window goes down
by several centimetres.
If you attempt to close the window again within 10 seconds of the window be-
ing moved down for the second time, even though the obstacle was not yet
been removed, the closing process is only stopped. During this time it is not
possible to automatically close the window. The force limiter is still switched
on.
The force limiter is only not operational if you attempt to close the window
again within the next 10 seconds – the window will now close with full force!
If you wait longer than 10 seconds, the force limiter is switched on again.

motorway, rain, adjusting the lighting direction of the headlights on the road
illumination on bends.
The system works as long as the light switch is in position

Rear view mirror
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Interior mirror dimming
66
Mirrors
67WARNINGExterior mirrors increase the field of view, however, they make objects ap-
pear smaller and further away. Therefore, use the interior mirror whenever
possible, for assessing the distances to the vehicles following behind.WARNING■ The mirrors with automatic dimming contain electrolyte fluid which may
leak if the mirror glass is broken - this can irritate skin, eyes and the respi-
ratory system.■
If your eyes or skin come into contact with the electrolytic fluid, immedi-
ately wash the affected area for a few minutes long with a lot of water. If
necessary get medical assistance.
Interior mirror dimmingFig. 53

Read and observe
on page 66 first.
Mirrors with manual dimming » Fig. 53 -
Basic mirror position (not darkened)
Mirror blackout
Mirror with automatic dimming
The mirror dimming » Fig. 53 -
is automatically controlled after the engine
start.
When the interior lights are switched on or the reverse gear is engaged, the
mirror moves back into the basic position (not dimmed).
WARNING■ Attach external devices (e.g. navigation system) not in the vicinity of the
mirror with automatic dimming . The illuminated display of an external de-
vice can affect the function of the rear-view mirror -There is a risk of an ac-
cident.■
Automatic mirror dimming only operates correctly if the light striking the
sensor is not affected by other objects. The sensors are located on the
front and back of the mirror.

Page 96 of 200
WARNING■The blower should always be on to prevent the windows from misting.
Otherwise there is a risk of accident.■
Under certain circumstances, air at a temperature of about 5 °C can flow
out of the vents when the cooling system is switched on.
Note
■ The air inlet in front of the windscreen must be free of e.g. ice, snow or
leaves to ensure that the heating and cooling system operates properly.■
After switching on the cooling Condensation from the evaporator of the air
conditioning may drip down and form a puddle below the vehicle. This is not a
leak!
■
If the coolant temperature is too high, the cooling system is switched off to
ensure that the engine cools down.
