The on-board literature

The on-board literature for your vehicle consists of this “Owner's Manual” as well

as a “Service schedule” and the “Help on the road” brochure.

uals and instructions may be provided (e.g. an operating manual for the radio).

The Owner's Manual

These operating instructions describe all possible equipment variants without

identifying them as special equipment, model variants or market-dependent

equipment.

Consequently, this vehicle does not need to contain all of the equipment compo-

nents described in this Owner's manual.

The level of equipment of your vehicle refers to your purchase contract of the ve-

hicle. For more information, contact your local ŠKODA retailer.

The illustrations can differ in minor details from your vehicle; they are only inten-

ded for general information.

The Service Plan:

›includes vehicle data including information on service work performed;

›is a record of services provided;

›is provided for entries relating to the mobility warranty (valid only for some

countries);

›serves as warranty certificate of the ŠKODA dealer.

The service records are one of the conditions for warranty claims.

Please always present the Service schedule when you take your car to a ŠKODA

specialist garage.

If the Service Schedule is missing or worn, please contact the ŠKODA specialist

garage that regularly services your car. You will receive a duplicate, in which the

previously carried out service work is confirmed by the ŠKODA specialist garage.

The Help on the Road brochure

The brochure contains the important emergency telephone numbers as well as

telephone numbers and contact addresses of ŠKODA Service Partners in different

countries.
