When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to the
shift in the centre of gravity. The speed and style of driving must be adjusted
accordingly.
When transporting cargo, the following instructions must be adhered to ▶ Distribute the load evenly in the luggage compartment and secure it with
suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes or fixing nets so that they cannot
slip.
▶ Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
▶ Tyre pressure should be adjusted for the load.
In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic
energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the
vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.
WARNING■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks etc. If heavy objects have not been suitably secured, there is a
risk of injury!■
Do not exceed the permissible axle loads and permissible gross weight of
the vehicle – There is a risk of an accident!
■
An unsecured dirt or improperly attached load could slip during a sudden
manoeuvre or in an accident - There is a risk of injury!
■
Loose cargo could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of
death!
■
When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-
larged by folding one of the rear seats forward, care should be taken to en-
sure the safety of passengers transported on the other rear seat.
CAUTION
■ Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,
nets, hooks, etc. - these could be damaged.■
Please ensure that the heating elements for the rear window heater are not
damaged as a result of abrasive objects.
■
Do not place sharp objects in the nets and storage compartments in the lug-
gage compartment - there is a risk of damage to the net as well as the com-
partments.
■
Put the items in the storage compartments carefully and do not put point-
shaped objects - there is a risk of damage to the compartments.

Transportation on the roof rack
Roof load
The maximum permitted weight of the load incl. carriers is 100 kg.
WARNINGThe following instructions must be observed to aid road safety when trans-
porting cargo on the roof rack.■
Always distribute the load on the roof rack evenly and secure properly
with suitable lashing straps or tensioning straps.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
the roof rack system, the handling of the car may change as a result of the
displacement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed must
therefore be adapted to the current circumstances.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and permissible total ve-
hicle weight must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of acci-
dent!
CAUTION
■ Make sure that the sliding / tilting roof or the boot lid does not collide with
the roof load when opened.■
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the load being transported.
Note
We recommend that you use a roof rack from ŠKODA Original Accessories.Heating and ventilation
Heating, manual air conditioning system, Climatronic
Introduction

Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
94
Climatronic - automatic operation
95
Air distribution control
96
Air outlet vents
96
The heater heats and ventilates the vehicle interior. The air conditioning sys-
tem also cools and dehumidifies the vehicle interior.
The heating effect is dependent upon the coolant temperature, thus full heat
output only occurs when the engine has reached its operating temperature.
The cooling system works under the following conditions. The cooling system is switched on.
The engine is running.
The outside temperature is above 2 °C.
The blower is switched on.
When the cooling system is switched on, it prevents misting of the windscreen
and windows.
It is possible to boost the effectiveness of the cooling system by briefly acti-
vating the air recirculation system » page 96.
Health protection
To reduce health risks (e.g. common colds), the following instructions for the
use of the cooling system are to be observed. ▶ The difference between the outside temperature and the inside temperature
should not be greater than 5 °C.
▶ The cooling system should be turned off about 10 minutes before the end of
the journey.
▶ Once a year, a disinfection of the air conditioner is to be carried out by a spe-
cialist company.
93Heating and ventilation
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.

When the function is switched on, the indicator light in the button lights up.
After the cooling system is switched off, only the ventilation function remains
active whereby the minimum temperature that can be reached is the outside
temperature.
Setting temperature
The interior temperature for the left and right side can be set separately or to-
gether.
The temperature for both sides, is set by turning the knob A
» Fig. 116 (the
indicator light in the button is not illuminated).
The temperature for the right side is adjusted by turning the knob
D
(the in-
dicator light in the button is lit).
The temperature for the left side is adjusted by turning the knob
A
(the indi-
cator light in the button is lit).
At a temperature setting below 18 ° C at the start of the numerical scale, the
symbol will illuminate, Climatronic is using
Maximum cooling performance.
At a temperature setting above 26 ° C at the end of the numerical scale, the
symbol will illuminate, Climatronic is using
maximum heat output.
There is no automatic temperature control in the two end positions. In the
range between 18 °C to 26 °C, an automatic temperature control takes place.
Controlling blower
The Climatronic system controls the blower stages automatically in line with
the interior temperature. However, the blower stages can be manually adap-
ted to suit your particular needs.
If the blower speed is reduced to a minimum, Climatronic is switched off.
The set blower speed is displayed above the button
when the respective
number of indicator lights come on.
CAUTION
Do not cover the interior temperature sensor H » Fig. 116 - the function of the
Climatronic could be impaired.
Note
■ If the windscreen mists up, press the button . Press the button once
the windscreen has demisted.■
In order to ensure adequate thermal comfort, there may be an increase in en-
gine idle speed during operation of the Climatronic in some circumstances.
Climatronic - automatic operation
Read and observe
on page 94 first.
The automatic mode is used in order to maintain a constant temperature and
to demist the windows in the interior of the car.
If the warning light in the top right corner of the button
lights up, the Cli-
matronic operates in “HIGH”-mode.
Upon pressing the
button again, the Climatronic switches to “LOW”-mode
and the indicator light in the top left corner lights up. The Climatronic uses on-
ly in this mode the lower blower speed. However taking into account the noise
level, this is more comfortable, yet be aware that the effectiveness of the air
conditioning system is reduced particularly if the vehicle is fully occupied.
By pressing the button
again, it is changed to “HIGH”-mode.
Automatic mode can be switched off by pressing one of the buttons for the air
distribution or by increasing/decreasing the blower speed. The temperature
regulation is continued.
Note
Climatronic is set to the “HIGH” mode at the factory.95Heating and ventilation
Page 98 of 200
Air distribution controlRead and observe
on page 94 first.
The recirculation mode prevents contaminated outside air getting into the in-
terior of the vehicle. In recirculated air mode air is sucked out of the interior of
the vehicle and then fed back into the interior.
Heating and manual air conditioning system
›
To switch on press the
button.
›
To switch off , press the
button again.
If the air distribution control is set to position
when the recirculation modes
is switched on, the recirculated-air mode is switched off.
By pressing the button, the air recirculation also in this position can be
switched on again.
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)
›
To turn the recirculation mode on, press the Symbol key
repeatedly until
the indicator light is lit on the left side of the button.
›
To activate the automatic recirculation mode, press the Symbol key
re-
peatedly until the indicator light is lit on the right side of the button.
The Climatronic can have a sensor that measures the air recirculation mode
and automatically turns on if there is an increased concentration of pollutants
in the incoming air.
When the pollutant concentration decreases to the normal level, the recircula-
ted air mode is automatically switched off.
If the air quality sensor does not automatically switch on the recirculated air mode, you can switch it on yourself by pressing the button . The indicator
light lights up in the button on the left side.
To turn off the air recirculation or to deactivate the automatic air recircula-
tion , press the
button of press the
symbol button repeatedly until the
warning lights in the button go out.
WARNINGThe recirculation system cannot be switched on for a longer period of time,
because no fresh air is fed through from the outside. “Stale air” may result
in fatigue in the driver and occupants, reduce attention levels and also
cause the windows to mist up. As soon as windows mist up, turn on the re-
circulation system immediately - There is a risk of accident!CAUTIONWe recommend not smoking in the vehicle when the recirculating air operation
is switched on. The smoke sucked from the interior is deposited on the evapo-
rator of the air conditioner. This produces a permanent odour when the air
conditioning system is operating which can only be eliminated through consid-
erable effort and expense (replacement of compressor).
Note
The Climatronic automatic air distribution control operates only if the outside
temperature is higher than approx. 2 °C.
