The windscreen washer fluid reservoir
A
is located in the engine compart-
ment » Fig. 160 .
The capacity of the reservoir A is about 3 litres or about 5.5 litres on vehicles
that have a headlight cleaning system 1)
.
Use a suitable windscreen washer fluid for the current or expected weather
conditions. We recommend that you use windscreen washer fluid from ŠKODA
Original Accessories.
CAUTION
■ If the vehicle is equipped with a headlight cleaning system, then only use
windscreen washer fluid types that do not attack the polycarbonate coating of
the headlights - otherwise there is a risk of damage to headlights.■
Do not remove the filter from the windscreen washer fluid reservoir when re-
plenishing it with liquid - otherwise the liquid transportation system might be
contaminated, which can cause the windscreen washer system to malfunction.
Engine oil
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Specification
145
Check and refill
145
The engine has been filled ex-factory with a high-grade oil that can be used
throughout the year (except in extreme climate zones).
We recommend that the oil changes are carried out by a ŠKODA Service Part- ner.
The engine oil should be changed at specified service intervals » page 133.
The engine uses up some oil, depending on driving style and operating condi-
tions (up to 0.5 l / 1 000 km). Consumption may be slightly higher than this dur-
ing the first 5 000 km.
1)
In some countries, 5.5 ltr. applies for both variants.

Check and refill
Fig. 161
Dipstick variants
Read and observe
and on page 145 first.
Check and refill oil under the following conditions. The vehicle is standing on a horizontal surface.
The engine operating temperature is reached.
The engine is turned off.
Checking the level
›
Wait a few minutes until the engine oil flows back into the oil trough.
›
Pull the dipstick out and wipe with a clean cloth.
›
Push the dipstick back to the stop and then pull it out again.
›
Read the oil level and push the dipstick back in.
The oil level must lie in range
A
» Fig. 161 . If the oil level is below range
A
, oil
must be added.
Refilling

145Inspecting and replenishing
Page 149 of 200

CAUTION■If the expansion tank is empty, do not top up with coolant. The system could
aerate - There is a risk of engine damage! Stop driving! Switch off the en-
gine and seek assistance from a specialist garage.■
Do not fill the coolant above the mark
A
» Fig. 162 . The coolant could, when
heated, be expelled from the cooling system - There is a risk of damage to the
engine parts.
■
If it is not possible to add coolant,
stop driving! Switch off the engine and
seek assistance from a specialist garage.
■
A coolant additive which does not correspond to the correct specification can
reduce the anti-corrosion effect of the cooling system - risk of damage to the
cooling system and the engine.
■
If non-distilled (non-demineralised) water has been used to top up, the cool-
ant should be replaced by a specialist garage - There is a risk of engine dam-
age.
■
A loss of coolant indicates leaks in the cooling system -There is a risk of en-
gine damage. Top up with coolant and then seek assistance from a specialist
garage.
Note
Too low coolant level is indicated in the instrument cluster by the warning
light and shown by the message » page 32. We still recommend inspecting
the coolant level directly at the reservoir from time to time.
Brake fluid
Fig. 163
Brake fluid reservoir
Check the brake fluid under the following conditions.
The vehicle is on a horizontal surface.
The engine is turned off.
Check brake fluid level - the brake fluid level must lie between the markings
“MIN” and “MAX” » Fig. 163.
Specification - the brake fluid must comply with the standard VW 501 14 (this
standard meets the requirements of FMVSS 116 DOT4).WARNING■ The following instructions must be followed at all times when working on
the engine compartment » page 142.■
If the fluid level drops significantly within a short time or if it drops below
the “MIN” » Fig. 163mark, this may be an indication of a leak in the brake
system.
Stop driving - There is a risk of an accident! Seek help from a
specialist garage.
Note
■ The brake fluid is changed as part of a compulsory inspection service.■Too low brake fluid level is indicated by the warning light being shown on
the display of the instrument cluster as well as the corresponding message
» page 32 . We still recommend inspecting the brake fluid level in the reservoir
from time to time.
Vehicle battery
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Check condition
148
Charging
149
Disconnect/reconnect and change
149
The vehicle battery represents a power source for the motor to start and for the supply of electrical consumers in the car.
Automatic shutdown of consumers - vehicle battery discharge protection
The on-board power supply system tries to prevent the vehicle battery from
discharging in the following ways when it is subject to heavy loading. ▶ By increasing the engine idle speed.
▶ Through the power limitation of certain consumers.
▶ By switching off some loads(heated seats, heated rear window) for as long
as necessary.

Warning symbols on the vehicle batterySymbolMeaningAlways wear eye protection.Battery acid is severely caustic. Always wear gloves and eye pro-
tection.Keep fire, sparks, open flames and lit cigarettes well clear of the
vehicle battery.When charging the vehicle battery, a highly explosive gas mixture
is produced.Keep children away from the vehicle battery.WARNINGBattery acid is highly corrosive - There is a risk of injury, chemical burns or
poisoning! Corrosive vapours in the air irritate and damage the respiratory
tract and the eyes. The following guidelines must be observed.■
Always wear protective gloves, eye and skin protection when handling
the vehicle battery.
■
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.
Seek medical assistance without delay.
■
Keep the vehicle battery away from people who are not completely inde-
pendent (e.g. children).
■
Do not tilt the battery otherwise battery electrolyte may flow out of the
battery vent openings.
WARNINGWorking on the car battery may cause an explosion, fire, injury or chemical
burns! The following guidelines must be observed.■
Do not smoke, use open flames or light or transmitting devices.
■
A discharged vehicle battery may freeze slightly. Never charge up a fro-
zen or thawed vehicle battery. Replace a frozen vehicle battery.
■
Never use a damaged vehicle battery.
■
Do not connect the battery terminals, bridging the two poles will cause a
short circuit.
CAUTIONEnsure that battery acid does not come into contact with the bodywork –
There is a risk of damage to the paintwork.
Note
■ We recommend having all work on the vehicle battery carried out by a spe-
cialist garage.■
You should replace batteries older than 5 years.
Check condition
Fig. 164
Vehicle battery: Open the cover / acid level indicator
Read and observe
and on page 148 first.
The battery condition is checked regularly by a specialist garage as part of the
inspection service.
Check the acid level
For car batteries with acid level indicator, acidity can be checked on the basis
of a colour display. In vehicle batteries with the label “AGM” there is no acid
level examination.
Depending on the equipment, the vehicle battery may be provided with a cov-
er, this can be opened in the direction of arrow » Fig. 164 -
.
Air bubbles can influence the colour of the indicator. Therefore, carefully knock
on the display » Fig. 164 -
.
Black colour - electrolyte level is correct.
Colourless or light yellow colour - electrolyte level too low, the battery must be replaced.
