The windscreen washer fluid reservoir
ment » Fig. 309.
The capacity of the reservoir is about 3 litres or about 4.7 litres on vehicles
that have a headlight cleaning system
Use a suitable windscreen washer fluid in accordance with the current or ex-
pected weather conditions. We recommend that you use accessories from
ŠKODA Original Accessories.
CAUTION
If the vehicle is equipped with a headlight cleaning system, then only use
■
windscreen washer fluid types that do not attack the polycarbonate coating of
the headlights - otherwise there is a risk of damage to headlights.
Do not remove the filter from the windscreen washer fluid reservoir when
■
replenishing it with liquid otherwise the liquid transportation system can be-
come contaminated, which can cause the windscreen washer system to mal-
function.

Introduction

The engine has been factory-filled with a high-grade oil that can be use

throughout the year - except in extreme climate zones.
We therefore recommend that the oil change is carried out by a ŠKODA Serv-
ice Partner.
The engine oil should be changed after specified service intervals
Depending on the driving style and operating conditions, the engine uses some
oil (up to 0.5 l / 1 000 km). Consumption may be slightly higher than this dur-
ing the first 5 000 km.
