Engine Oil - Skoda Superb Owner's Manual

In Winter, the washing water should always be mixed with antifreeze even if the
vehicle has heated windscreen washer nozzles.
Under exceptional circumstances, methylated spirits can also be used if no screen
cleaner with antifreeze is available. The concentration of methylated spirits must
not be more than 15 %. The freeze protection at this concentration is sufficient
only to -5 °C.
CAUTION
Under no circumstances must radiator antifreeze or other additives be added to
■
the windscreen washer fluid.
If the vehicle is fitted with a headlight cleaning system, only cleaning products
■
which do not attack the polycarbonate coating of the headlights must be added
to the windscreen washer fluid.
Do not remove the filter from the windscreen washer fluid reservoir when refill-
■
ing, as this may cause contamination of the liquid transportation system, leading
in turn to a windscreen washer system malfunction.

The engine oils are undergoing continuous further development. Thus the infor-

ŠKODA Service Partners are informed about the latest changes by the manufac-
turer. We therefore recommend that the oil change be completed by a ŠKODA
Service Partner.
