Introduction
The instructions and guidelines from ŠKODA AUTO a.s. must be observed
when using accessories or carrying out any modifications, repairs or technical
alterations to your vehicle.
Adhering to these instructions and guidelines helps ensure road safety and
helps keep your vehicle in a good technical condition.
WARNING
Adjustments, repairs and technical changes to the vehicle should only be
■
carried out by a specialist. Work carried out incorrectly (including work on
the electronic components and their software) can result in malfunctions -
there is a risk of accident and, potentially, increased wear on parts!
We recommend that you use only ŠKODA Original Accessories and ŠKO-
■
DA Original Parts which have been expressly approved for use on your ve-
hicle. Reliability, safety and suitability for your vehicle are guaranteed with
these.
Do not use any products which have not been approved by ŠKODA AU-
■
TO, even though these may be products with a type approval or which have
been approved by a nationally recognised testing laboratory.

intended weather conditions, you should contact a ŠKODA partner. He or she
will advise you if certain precautions need to be taken to ensure the full func-
tioning of the vehicle or to prevent damage (e.g. coolant, changing the battery
or similar).
