The ŠKODA service partners have been informed about the necessary legal
tests and will prepare the vehicle for the tests in a service operation at the
customer's discretion, or will ensure that these tests are carried out. The spe-
cialist garages can carry out the specified tests directly at the customer's dis-
cretion, if they are designated for such a procedure. This saves you time and
money.
Even if you want to take your vehicle to an officially approved test centre for
prior checking in preparation of a legally required test, we recommend that you
consult the service consultant of your ŠKODA service partner beforehand.
The service consultant will tell you which areas, according to his appraisal, you
should focus on in order that your vehicle may pass the technical test without
any problems. In this way, you can avoid additional expenses resulting from a
possible subsequent test.

ŠKODA Original parts

on page 92 first.
We recommend the use of ŠKODA Genuine Parts for your vehicle, since these
parts are approved by ŠKODA AUTO a.s. They correspond exactly to the ŠKODA
AUTO a.s. regulations in regard to design, dimensional accuracy and material,
and are identical to the components used in the batch production.
ŠKODA AUTO a.s. is able to warrant the safety, suitability, and long life of
these products. Therefore, we recommend that you only use ŠKODA Genuine
Parts.
ŠKODA AUTO a.s. supplies the market with a complete range of ŠKODA Genu-
ine Parts not only while the model is still in production but for at least 15 years
after the end of series production; the market is supplied with wear-and-tear
parts and for at least 10 years with equipment parts.
ŠKODA service partners are liable for any ŠKODA original part defects for a pe-
riod of 2 years after sale in accordance with the materials defect liability, provi-
ded that nothing else was agreed in the purchase agreement. You should keep
the approved warranty certificate and the bill for these components for this
period of time, so that the commencement of the term may be verified.
Body repairs
ŠKODA vehicles are designed so that if the body suffers damage, it is only nec-
essary to replace those parts which are in fact damaged.
Before you decide to have damaged body parts replaced, however, you should
first of all contact your specialist garage to determine whether or not such
parts can also be repaired. Repairs to body parts are usually cheaper.
ŠKODA Original accessories
Read and observe on page 92 first.
If you wish to fit accessories to your vehicle, you should bear in mind the fol-
lowing:
We recommend that you use ŠKODA Genuine Accessories in your vehicle.
ŠKODA AUTO a.s. has selected such accessories to ensure that they are relia-
ble, safe and suitable for your particular vehicle. Although we constantly moni-
tor the market, we are not able to assess or warrant the parts even though in
some instances such parts may have a type approval or may have been ap-
proved by a nationally recognised testing laboratory.
All accessory products go through a fastidious process in the area of technical
development (technical tests) and quality inspection (customer tests), and only
if all tests are positive does the product become a ŠKODA Genuine Accessory.
Our ŠKODA Genuine Accessories service also provides expert advice, and pro-
fessional fitting at the customer's discretion.
