Maintaining and cleaning

Service events

service intervals
Compliance with service intervals is crucial for the
life and value of the vehicle.
You will be notified of the due date for service with
the symbol and the corresponding message on the
display of the instrument cluster.
The specialist garage will inform you of the type of
service interval, the option of changing this and the
scope of service.
All services and the replacement or refilling of op-
erating fluids are chargeable to the customer, even
during the warranty period, unless the ŠKODA AUTO
warranty conditions or other binding agreements de-
termine otherwise.
Proof of service
A specialist garage stores the proof of service in the
information system called Digital Service Plan.
The proof of service can be printed out.

Resetting information
We recommend that you do not reset the informa-
tion regarding service events on your own. It can
lead to incorrect setting of the service intervals and
thus also to possible faults in the vehicle.
For vehicles with a variable service interval, new
service interval values calculated according to the
previous operating conditions will be displayed after
the oil change service indicator is reset. These values
will then continue to be adjusted according to the
current operating conditions.
Service work, adjustments and technical
changes
The instructions and guidelines from ŠKODA AUTO
must be observed when carrying out any modifica-
tions, repairs or technical alterations to the vehicle.
Adhering to these instructions and guidelines helps
ensure road safety and helps keep the vehicle in a
good technical condition.
We advise only using ŠKODA Original Accessories
and ŠKODA Original Parts which have been expressly
approved for use on your vehicle. Reliability, safety
and suitability for your vehicle are guaranteed with
these.

Spoiler
WARNING
Risk of an accident!
Only use the original spoiler on the front bumper in
▶
combination with the original spoiler on the boot
lid.
The original spoiler on the front bumper cannot be
▶
left on its own without the spoiler on the luggage
compartment lid or in combination with an unsuita-
ble spoiler on the luggage compartment lid.

Component protection
Some electronic vehicle components (such as the in-
strument cluster) are factory-equipped with compo-
nent protection. This component protection ensures
the functional limitation of these components in a
non-legitimate installation in another vehicle (e.g. af-
ter a theft) or operation outside the vehicle.
