WARNING
■
If you are in flowing traffic, switch on the hazard warning light system and
set up the warning triangle at the prescribed distance! The national legal re-
quirements must be observed. In this way you are not only protecting yourself
but other road users as well.
■
If the wheel is damaged or in the event of a puncture, park the vehicle as far
away as possible from the flow of traffic. Park on as flat and firm a surface as
possible.
■
If the wheel has to be changed on a slope, first of all block the opposite
wheel with a stone or similar object to prevent the vehicle from unexpectedly
rolling away.
WARNING (Continued)
■
If the vehicle is subsequently fitted with tyres which are different to those it
was fitted with at the works, follow these guidelines

■
Always raise the vehicle with the doors closed.
■
Never position any body parts, such as arms or legs under the vehicle, while
the vehicle is raised with a lifting jack.
■
Secure the base plate of the lifting jack with suitable means to prevent pos-
sible moving. A soft and slippery ground under the base plate may move the
lifting jack, causing the vehicle to fall down. 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, tiled floor, etc.
■
Never start the engine with the vehicle sitting on the raised jack – danger of
suffering injury.
■
Only attach the lifting jack to the attachment points provided for this pur-
pose.
CAUTION
■
The prescribed tightening torque of the wheel bolts for steel and light alloy
wheels is 120 Nm.
■
If the anti-theft wheel bolt is fastened too tightly, it can cause damage to the
anti-theft wheel bolt and adapter.
Note
■
The anti-theft wheel bolt set and adapter can be purchased from a ŠKODA Serv-
ice Partner.
■
The national legal requirements must be observed when changing a wheel.
