2 “START - STOP”*

“START - STOP”* The “START-STOP” system is very complex. Some of the procedures are hard to check
without servicing. The general conditions for the proper functioning of the “START-
STOP” system are listed in the following overview.

Conditions for the automatic engine shut down (stop phase)

The gearshift lever is in Neutral.

The clutch pedal is not pressed!
The driver has fastened the seat belt.
The driver's door is closed.

km/h.
Automatic engine restart (start phase). The particulate filter* is not being cleaned, see Owner's manual.
– Push down on the clutch.
The front wheels are not turned excessively (the steering angle is less than 3/4 of a
steering wheel revolution).
Switching the “START-STOP” system on and off
You can switch the “START STOP” system on/off by pressing the button  fig. 2.
When start-stop mode is deactivated, the warning light in the button lights up.
If the vehicle is in the stop phase when manually switching off the system, the engine
starts immediately.

6 Tyre repair kit*

Tyre repair kit* WARNING (continued)

General information
The tyre repair kit is located in a box under the carpet in the luggage compartment.
Use the tyre repair kit to reliably repair tyre damage caused by foreign bodies or a
puncture with diameters up to 4 mm. Do not remove foreign bodies, e.g. screws or
nails, from the tyre!
The repair can be undertaken on the vehicle immediately.
The repair with the tyre repair kit is not at all intended to replace a permanent repair
on the tyre, this repair only serves to reach the next specialist garage.
Do not use the tyre repair kit:
• to repair wheel damage,
• in outside temperatures of less than -20 °C (-4 °F),
• with tears or punctures greater than 4 mm in size,
• to repair damage to the tyre wall,
• when driving with very low tyre pressure or with a completely flat tyre,
• if the use-by-date (see inflation bottle) has passed.
• Sealant is hazardous to heath. Remove immediately if it comes into contact
with the skin.
For the sake of the environment
Used sealant or sealant whose expiry date has passed must be disposed of in accord-
ance with environmental protection regulations.
Note
• Observe the manufacturer's usage instructions for the tyre repair kit.
• You can purchase a new bottle of sealant from the range of the Škoda original
accessories.
• Change the wheel that was repaired using the tyre repair kit or consult a specialist
garage about possibilities for getting repairs done.
Components of the tyre repair kit

WARNING
• If you find yourself in flowing traffic switch on the hazard warning lights
system and place the warning triangle on the side of the road at the prescribed
distance from your vehicle. Comply with the national legal regulations. In this
way you are protecting not only yourself but also other road users.
• Park the vehicle as far away as possible from the traffic flow. Park on as flat
and firm a surface as possible.
• A tyre filled with sealant has the same driving characteristics as a standard
tyre.
Fig. 5 Components of the tyre repair kit
• Do not drive faster than 80 km/h, (50 mph).
• Avoid accelerating at full throttle, sharp braking and fast cornering. The tyre repair kit is made up of the following parts:

General

WARNING
• During inflation, the tyre inflation hose and air compressor may get hot-
risk of injury!
• Do not place hot tyre inflation hoses or hot air compressors on flammable
materials - risk of fire!
• If you cannot inflate the tyre to at least 2.0 bar, this means the damage
sustained was too serious. The sealing agent cannot be used to seal the tyre. Do
not drive the vehicle. Get professional assistance.
Caution
Do not push or two the vehicle to start the engine - likely engine damage! In vehicles
with catalytic converters, fuel may get into the catalytic converter where it may ignite.
This results in the catalytic converter overheating and being destroyed. To help start
the engine, you can use a battery from another vehicle, see Owner's manual.
