Spare wheel*

Changing a wheel

Preliminary work

The following steps should be carried out before actually changing the

wheel.

–

If it is necessary to change a wheel, park the vehicle as far away as

possible from the traffic flow. The place you choose should be level.

–

Have all the occupants get out. While changing a wheel, the occu-

pants of the vehicle should not stand on the road (e.g. behind a crash

barrier).

Fig. 221 Luggage compart-

ment: Spare wheel

–

Apply the handbrake firmly.

Shift up into the 1st gear.

The spare wheel is stowed in the luggage compartment in the area below the vari-

able loading floor* and is secured with a special screw ⇒ fig. 221.

One should check the inflation pressure in the spare wheel (at best when generally

checking the tyre air pressures - see sign on the fuel filler flap ⇒ page 232) to

ensure that the spare wheel is always ready to use.

If a trailer is coupled, uncouple it.

Take the vehicle tool kit ⇒ page 242 and the spare wheel*

⇒ page 243 out of the luggage compartment.

Temporary spare wheel

A yellow warning label is displayed on the rim of the temporary spare wheel.

system and place the warning triangle on the side of the road at the

prescribed distance from your vehicle while observing all national legal

provisions. In this way you are protecting not only yourself but also other

road users.

Do not drive faster than 80 km/h with this spare wheel and pay particular atten-

tion while driving. Avoid accelerating at full throttle, sharp braking and fast

cornering.

•

The inflation pressure for this spare wheel is identical to the inflation pressure

of the standard tyres. The temporary spare wheel R 16 must have an inflation pres-

sure of 420 kPa (4.2 bar)!

•

Never start the engine with the vehicle sitting on the raised jack - danger

of suffering injury.

Breakdown assistance 247

Ground below the lifting jack which is soft and slippery can cause the vehicle to

slip off the jack. It is therefore always necessary to place the lifting jack* on a solid

surface or use a wide and stable base. Use a non-slip base (e.g. a rubber foot mat)

if the surface is smooth, such as cobbled stones, a tiled floor, etc.

Slacken the wheel bolt, or tighten it firmly ⇒ page 246.

WARNING

Reinstall the full wheel trim/wheel cap after removing the adapter or

place the cap onto the safety wheel bolt.

•

Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed - risk of injury!

Take suitable measures to prevent the base of the lifting jack from slip-

ping off - risk of injury!

–

Have the tightening torque checked with a torque wrench as soon as

possible. Steel and light alloy wheels must be tightened to a tightening

torque of 120 Nm.

•

Not positioning the lifting jack at the specified points can result in

damage to the vehicle. The jack can also slip off if it does not have sufficient

grip - risk of injury!

The safety wheel bolts on vehicles fitted with them (one safety wheel bolt per

wheel) can only be loosened or tighten up by using the adapter provided.

•

It is important to support the vehicle with suitable supporting blocks if

you wish to work under the lifted vehicle - risk of injury!

It is meaningful to note the code number hammered into the rear side of the

adapter or the rear side of the safety wheel bolts. You can obtain a replacement

adapter from a specialist garage, if necessary, by quoting this number.

Securing wheels against being stolen*

You need a special adapter for slackening the safety wheel bolts.

We recommend that you always carry the adapter for the wheel bolts with you in

the vehicle. It should be stowed in the vehicle tool kit.

Caution

Damage can occur to the adapter and safety wheel bolt if the safety wheel bolt is

tightened up too much.

Note

The set of safety wheel bolts can be obtained from a specialist garage.

We recommend purchasing jump-start cables from Škoda Service Partners as a

Škoda original accessory or from retailers who sell branded batteries.

Jump-starting

Initial steps

Start engine

You can use the battery of another vehicle for jump-starting yours if the engine

does not start because the battery on your vehicle is flat. You will require jump-start

cables for this purpose.

Both batteries must have a rated voltage of 12 V. The capacity (Ah) of the battery

supplying the power must not be significantly less than the capacity of the

discharged battery in your vehicle.

Jump-start cables

Tow-starting and towing vehicle

–

Start the engine of the vehicle providing current and run the engine at

idling speed.

General

–

Now start the engine of the vehicle with the discharged battery.

Please pay attention to the following instructions if you are going to use a

tow rope:

Interrupt the attempt at starting an engine after 10 seconds if it does

not start right away and wait for about 30 seconds before repeating

the attempt.

Driver of the towing vehicle

–

Do not drive off until the tow rope is taught.

–

Disconnect the cables on the engine in exactly the reverse order they

were connected up.

Release the clutch particularly gently when starting off.

WARNING

–

Switch the ignition on so that the steering wheel is not blocked and

you can also operate the turn signal lights, the headlight flasher, the

windscreen wipers and windscreen washer system.

•

The non-insulated parts of the terminal clamps must never make contact

with each other. Furthermore, the cable connected to the positive terminal

of the battery must not come into contact with electrically conducting parts

of the vehicle - risk of a short circuit!

–

Take the vehicle out of gear.

battery being ignited by the strong spark which results from the engine

being started.

•

Run the jump-start cables so that they cannot be caught by any rotating

parts in the engine compartment.

–

Ensure that the tow rope is always kept taught.

•

Do not bend over the batteries - risk of caustic burns!

Tow rope or tow bar

The vent screws of the battery cells must be tightened firmly.

Keep any sources of ignition (naked flame, smouldering cigarettes etc.)

away from the battery - risk of an explosion!

A tow bar is safest way of towing a vehicle and also minimizes any shocks. You can

use a tow rope only if a suitable tow bar is not available.

The tow rope must be elastic to protect the vehicle. Thus one should only use

plastic fibre rope or a rope made out of a similarly elastic material.

•

Never jump-start the batteries which have a too low electrolyte level -

risk of explosion and caustic burns!

Only attach the tow rope to the towing eyes provided for this purpose ⇒ page 250

and ⇒ page 250.

Driving style

Towing another vehicle requires a certain amount of practice. Both drivers should

be familiar with the particular points about towing a vehicle. Unskilled drivers

should not attempt to tow in another vehicle or to be towed in.

One should be constantly vigilant not to allow impermissibly high towing forces or

jerky loadings. There is always a risk of excessive stresses and damage resulting at

the points to which you attach the tow rope or tow bar when you attempt to tow a

vehicle which is not standing on a paved road.
