Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Unleaded petrol
Headlights
In certain countries, it may be possible that the ŠKODA Service Partner network is
limited or has not been established. This is the reason why procuring certain
spare parts may be somewhat complicated and specialist garages may only be
able to make limited repairs.
Unleaded petrol

First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
A vehicle fitted with a petrol engine must always be refuelled with unleaded pet-
rol » page 161, Unleaded petrol. Information regarding the locations of filling sta-
tions that offer unleaded petrol is, for example, provided by the automobile asso-
ciations.
Headlights

First read and observe the introductory information given on page 110.
The low beam of your headlights is set asymmetrically. It illuminates the side of
the road on which the vehicle is being driven to a greater extent.
When driving in countries in which the traffic drives on the other side of the road
than in your home country, the asymmetrical low beam may dazzle oncoming
drivers. In order to avoid this, the headlights must be adjusted at a specialist ga-
rage.
