Information about the ŠKODA service
The Service Interval Display in the instrument cluster will remind you to have ev-
ery service specified by the manufacturer at the right time so that you never for-
get a service.
A timely and adequate performance of servicing works is one of the requirements
for the settlement of possible warranty claims.
The completion of services can be verified through the confirmed service certifi-
cation and the corresponding receipts.
The service intervals are appropriate for normal operating conditions.
It will be necessary to have some servicing work performed before the date of the
next service or between the service intervals stated if operating conditions are
severe. This applies mainly to the cleaning or the replacement of the air filter in-
sert in regions with heavy dust pollution and to inspection and replacement of
the toothed belt, but also to vehicles with diesel particle filter which can stress
the engine oil more intensely.
These severe conditions are:
›
fuel containing sulphur;
›
frequent short trips;
›
longer idling mode of the engine (e.g. taxi vehicles);
›
operation in areas with heavy dust pollution;
›
frequent trailer towing;

predominantly stop-and-go traffic as tends to occur in city driving, for example;
›
operation predominantly during winter.
A service consultant at the specialist garage will tell you whether your vehicle's
operating conditions make it necessary for such work to be carried out between
the normal service intervals.
Different service charges may apply, depending on the scope of operations re-
quired as well as the model, features and condition of your vehicle.
Note
The customer is responsible for covering the cost of all services including
■
changing or topping up the operating fluid, even during the warranty period, un-
less the ŠKODA AUTO a.s. warranty terms or other agreements state otherwise.
