Starting-off and Driving110

The brake booster only operates when the engine is running. Greater phys-ical effort for braking is required when engine is switched off. Because if you donot stop as normal, this can cause an accident and severe injuries.

Shift into reverse only when the vehicle it fully depressed. Wait a moment befoshift noises.

The reversing lights will come on once ron.

WARNING (continued)

Page 111: Skoda Octavia Manual

8/12/2019 Skoda Octavia Manual

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/skoda-octavia-manual 111/275

Cautionyou should not switch the engine off right away at the end of your journey after theengine has been operated for a lengthy period at high loads but should be allowed itto run at idling speed for about 2 minutes. This prevents any accumulation of heatwhen the engine is switched off.

Note The radiator fan may continue running for a further 10 minutes or so after theengine and the ignition have been switched off. The coolant fan may, however, alsoswitch on again after some time if the coolant temperature rises because of an accu-mulation of heat in the engine or if the engine is warm and the engine compartment isadditionally heated by strong sunlight.

This is why particular care is required when carrying out any work in the enginecompartment page 197, “Working in the engine compartment”.

g p y , y y jwhen adopting an incorrect seated position!

If the occupants on the rear seats are not sitting upright, the risk of injury isincreased due to incorrect routing of the seat belt.

Examples of an incorrect seated position

An incorrect seated position can lead to severe injuries or death for theoccupants.

Seat belts offer their optimum protection only if the webbing of the seat belts is prop-erly routed. Incorrect seated positions considerably reduce the protective functions ofthe seat belts and therefore increase the risk of injury due to an incorrect routing of theseat belt. The driver is fully responsible for himself and the occupants, in particular forthe children. Do not permit an occupant to adopt an incorrect seated position when

the car is moving.The following list contains the examples of seated positions which are dangerous forthe occupants. This list is not complete, however we would like you to get interested inthis subject.

Therefore, while the car is moving never:

have the seat belt not fastened,

occupy the luggage compartment.

In order to avoid damage to the vehicle when driving through bodies of water (e.g.flooded roads), observe the following:

Determine the depth of the water when driving through bodies of water. The watercan reach at the maximum the web on the lower sill of the vehicle fig. 156.

Drive no more than at walking speed. At a higher speed, a water wave can form infront of the vehicle which can cause water to penetrate into the air induction system ofthe engine or into other parts of the vehicle.

Never let the vehicle stand in the water, never drive backwards and do not switchoff the engine.

Driving through water, mud, sludge etc. can reduce the braking power andextend the braking distance - risk of accident!

The detachable ball head of the towing device is stowed in a box for the car tool kit inthe spare wheel well in the luggage compartment.

An instruction for correct installation and removal of the ball head of the towing deviceis supplied with the ball head.

Inspect the ball head to ensure that it is properly locked each time before setting off.The inspection is performed by turning the closed locking lever downwards. If thelocking lever can only be turned around a small angle (approx. 5°), the locking mecha-nism is O.K. After the inspection pull the locking lever back again to its stop. The towingdevice must not be used, if it does not wish to close or the locking lever turns slightlyin the closed position.

Taking care of

Clean the leather every 2 to 3 months, remove fresh soiling each time this occurs. Remove fresh stains such as those from ball-point pens, ink, lipstick, shoe creametc., as quickly as possible.

Care also for the leather dye. Refreshen areas which have lost their colour with aspecial coloured leather cream as required.

The leather is a natural material with specific properties. During the use of thevehicle, minor optical changes can occur on the leather parts of the covers (e. g wrin-

kles or creases as a result of the stress of the covers).

Seat belts

Page 192: Skoda Octavia Manual

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/skoda-octavia-manual 192/275

– Keep the seat belts clean!

– Wash seat belts which have become soiled using a mild soapy solution.

– Inspect the seat belts regularly to ensure they are in good condition.

Belt webbing which has become severely soiled may prevent the inertia reel fromreeling up the belt properly.

WARNING

The seat belts must not be removed for cleaning.

Never clean the seat belts chemically as dry cleaning may destroy the fabric.The seat belts must also not be allowed to come into contact with corrosiveliquids (such as acids etc.).

Seat belts which have damage to the webbing, the connections, the inertiareel or the lock should be replaced by an authorised Škoda Service Partner.

WARNINGPay attention to any legal requirements if you do carry a spare canister in thevehicle. We do not recommend carrying any fuel canisters in your vehicle forsafety reasons. The canister can be damaged in the event of an accident and fuelmay leak out.

Caution Even inadvertently filling the fuel tank with another biofuel such as Ethanol°E85can result in damage to the fuel system.

If you park the car for a lengthy period, fill with petrol complying with (DIN) EN°228,

because Ethanol E85 can contain low quantities of impurities, which can lead to corro-sion.

For the sake of the environmentIf you use Ethanol E85, the CO2 emission of your vehicle is lowered up to 5%.

Note When operating with Ethanol E85, the fuel consumption increases by approx 33%,as a lower quantity of energy is contained in the bioethanol than in unleaded petrol.

Biofuel Ethanol E85 contains only a low quantity of additives in contrast to

unleaded petrol. Therefore we recommend to fill up the tank with unleaded petrolcomplying with EN 228 every 15 000 km (e.g. before the oil change) and run it empty,so that the engine remains clean. Make sure not to use the whole content of the tank page 195, “Refuelling”.

The maximum permissible towing distance is 50 km. The gear oil pump does not

operate when the engine is not running; the gearbox would not be adequately lubri-cated at higher speeds and over longer towing distance.

CautionIf the vehicle is towed in by a recovery vehicle, it should only be towed in with the frontwheels raised. If the vehicle is raised at rear, the automatic gearbox is damaged! (Doesnot apply to the automatic gearbox DSG).

NoteThe vehicle must be transported on a special vehicle or trailer if it is not possible to towin the vehicle in the way described or if the towing distance is greater than 50 km

Engine oil specifications

The grade of engine oil should be selected in accordance with precisespecifications.

The engine of your vehicle has been factory-filled with a high-grade oil which you canuse throughout the year - except in extreme climatic regions.

You can mix various oils together with each other when refilling with oil. This does not,however, apply for models with flexible service intervals (QG1).

Engine oils are, of course, undergoing continuous further development. Thus theinformation stated in this Owner's Manual is only correct at the time of publication.

Authorised Škoda Service Partners are informed by Škoda Auto about current changes.This why you should always have engine oil changed by an authorised Škoda ServicePartner.

(QG1). We recommend always refilling with oil of the same specification since this will

maintain the properties of the oil. In exceptional cases, you must top up only onceengine oil complying with Specification VW 502 00 (only for petrol engines) or Specifi-cation VW 505 01 (only for diesel engines) to maximum 0.5 litres. You must not useother engine oils - risk of engine damage!

Note Before a long drive we recommend that you purchase and carry with you engine

oil which complies with the specification for your vehicle. Consequently, you willalways have the correct engine oil for refilling.

We recommend using a preservative from the Škoda original accessories offeredby your Škoda dealer
