Electrical Power Windows - Skoda Fabia Owner's Manual

The period after which the tailgate locks automatically can be extended by a spe-
cialist garage.

If the tailgate was opened with the  button on the remote control key, then it
is possible to open the lid within a limited period of it being closed.
There is a risk of unwanted entry into the vehicle before the boot lid is locked au-
tomatically. Therefore always lock the vehicle with the  button on the remote
control.
Delayed locking can be disabled by a specialist garage at any time.

WARNING

If the vehicle is locked from the outside, do not leave anybody in the vehicle

as it is not possible to open the windows from the inside in the event of an
emergency.
The system is fitted with a force limiter

the closing process is stopped and the window goes down by several centi-
metres. The windows should nevertheless be closed carefully – risk of injury.

ported on the rear seats.
Proceed with caution when closing windows to avoid causing crushing inju-
■
ries - there is a risk of injury.
CAUTION
Keep the windows clean to ensure the correct functionality of the electric win-
■
dows.
Should the windows freeze, first remove the ice
■
terior mirrors and only then operate the power windows. Otherwise, the window
seal and the power window mechanism could be damaged.
In the winter, ice on the window may cause greater resistance as the window is
■
closed. The window will stop and open again by several centimetres.
Always make sure that the windows are closed when you leave the locked vehi-
■
cle.
For the sake of the environment

At high speeds, you should keep the windows closed to prevent unnecessarily
high fuel consumption.
