Skoda Octavia (2019 year). Manual - part 6

CAUTION

■

Metal objects between the pad and the phone to be charged can become hot

due to the action of the induction field - this is a risk of damage to the tele-

phone.

■

With some phones, the charging process can be interrupted or the phone

can switch off due to heating up.

■

Do not insert any electronic or magnetic storage media (e.g. SD cards, USB

sticks, cards with magnetic strips or chips) between the pad and the phone to

be charged- there is a risk of data loss and damage to these data carriers.

■

If a message appears in the Infotainment screen that the phone cannot be

charged, then proceed as follows.

■

Check that there is no object between the support and the phone to be

charged. If this is the case, then take out the object and the phone. Place the

phone centrally on the phone symbol on the pad again.

■

Check if the position of the phone to be charged has not changed during

the journey. If this is the case, then take out the phone and put it back cen-

trally on the phone symbol on the pad.

Note

■

At the start of the wireless charging, the appropriate message appears on

the Infotainment screen.

■

For the optimum phone signal strength and uninterrupted wireless charging,

we recommend position the phone in the storage compartment without the

protective sleeve, if possible.

■

Insert a max. 160x84 mm into the storage compartment.

Electrical sockets



Introduction

WARNING

■

Do not place anything on the dashboard. These objects might slide or fall

down when driving and may distract you from concentrating on the traffic

– risk of accident!

■

Make sure that while driving no objects can enter the driver's footwell -

cause an accident!

■

Safely stow all devices during the journey to prevent them from being

thrown around the interior in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or

an accident – risk of death!

■

The devices may warm up during operation – risk of injury or fire!

■

Improper use of the power sockets and the electrical accessories can

cause fires, burns and other serious injuries.

■

The 12-Volt sockets also work if the ignition is switched off. When leaving

the vehicle, never leave persons who are not completely independent, such

as children, unattended in the vehicle.

CAUTION

When using the 12 volt power outlets the following notes are to be observed.

■

The sockets can only be used for the connection of approved electrical ac-

cessories with a total power consumption of up to 120 watts, otherwise the

electrical system of the vehicle may be damaged.

■

Connecting appliances when the engine is not running will drain the battery

of the vehicle!

■

Before switching the ignition on / off or before starting the engine, switch

off the devices which are connected to the sockets - there is a risk of damage

to the equipment due to voltage fluctuations.

230-volt socket

Fig. 117  Open the cover of the 230 volt outlet / 230 volt outlet



Read and observe   and   on page 98 first.

The 230-volt socket has a child safety lock. When inserting the plug, the fuse

is released, the socket is activated and the warning light above the socket is

illuminates green (if this flashes red, then the socket is deactivated).

The socket works with the engine running (in STOP mode in vehicles with the

START-STOP system) and for about 10 minutes after the engine is switched

off, provided an appliance was still connected prior to switching off the engine

(the warning light flashes green)).

›

To use, fold up the cover of the socket in the direction of arrow 

» Fig. 117

 and

plug the electrical appliance plug into the socket.

›

Before removing the electrical appliance plug from the socket, fold open the

cover of the socket part way in the direction of the arrow.

An automatic deactivation of the socket can take place, for example, for

the following reasons.

▶

Excessive current.

▶

Low state of charge of the battery.

▶

High outlet temperature.

If disabling reasons no longer exist, the automatic activation of the socket can

be done.
Should no automatic activation of the socket take place, the connected devi-

ces must be disconnected from the power outlet and reconnect after a short

time.

WARNING

■

Make sure that no liquid or moisture enters into the socket - it can be fa-

tal! If fluid does manage to get into the power socket, completely dry out

the socket before reuse.

■

The child lock on the power socket is unlocked when using adapters and

extension cables which carry volts – risk of injury!

■

Do no insert any objects (e.g. knitting needles) into the contacts of the

power socket – risk of death!

CAUTION

■

The power socket can only be used for connecting approved electrical ac-

cessories with a two-pin 230V plug, with a total power uptake of up to

150 watt.

■

The plug of the electrical appliance must be plugged in up to the stop, other-

wise the child safety lock can be unlocked and the socket may be activated

but the electric appliance is still not receiving power.



99

Practical features

■

Do not connect bulbs with neon tubes in the socket - there is a risk of dam-

aging the lamp.

■

For appliances with an independent power source (e.g. such as notebooks),

first connect the power source itself and only after that connect the appliance.

Transport of cargo

Luggage compartment



Introduction

When transporting heavy objects, the driving characteristics change due to

the shift in centre-of-gravity. Therefore, adjust the speed and driving mode ac-

cordingly.

When transporting cargo the following the instructions must be adhered to

▶

Distribute the load evenly in the luggage compartment and secure it with

suitable lashing straps to the lashing eyes or securing nets so that they can-

not slip.

▶

Place heavy objects as far forward in the luggage compartment as possible.

▶

Tyre pressure is to match the load.

In the event of an accident, even small and light objects gain so much kinetic

energy that they can cause severe injuries.
The magnitude of the kinetic energy is dependent on the speed at which the

vehicle is travelling and the weight of the object.

Luggage compartment light

The light switches on/off when the boot lid is opened or closed.
If the boot lid is open and the ignition switched off, the light will extinguish au-

tomatically after around 10 minutes.

WARNING

■

Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,

nets, hooks etc. Heavy objects were not secured sufficiently – risk of injury!

■

An unfixed or improperly fixed load can slip during a sudden manoeuvre or

an accident - danger of injury!

■

Loose cargo could hit a deployed airbag and injure occupants – danger of

death!

■

When transporting loads in the luggage compartment that has been en-

larged by folding the rear seats forward, ensure the safety of the passen-

gers transported on the other rear seats .



102

Operation

CAUTION

■

Never exceed the maximum permissible load of the respective fasteners,

nets, hooks etc. - these could be damaged.

■

Make sure that the heating elements of the rear window heater, the ele-

ments of the integrated aerial in the rear window or in the rear side windows

are not damaged by abrasive items.

■

Do not place sharp objects in the nets and storage compartments in the lug-

gage compartment - there is a risk of damage to the net as well as the com-

partments.

■

Put the items in the storage compartments carefully and not load these

punctiform - there is a risk of damage to the compartments.
