belts.

▶ Do not touch heated exterior mirror surfaces.

If there is a collision with a certain severity, the seat

belt is tightened by the belt tensioner so that unwan-

ted body movement is prevented.

The belt tensioner can also be deployed when the

seat belt is not fastened.

Belt tensioners are not activated in the event of a

roll-over, minor collisions or in accidents in which no

major forces are produced.

Smoke is released when the belt tensioner is de-

ployed. This does not indicate a vehicle fire.

Reversible belt tensioner

Vehicles with a proactive occupant protection sys-

tem include reversible belt tensioners » page 189.

The reversible belt tensioners increase safety for the

belted driver and front passenger by automatically

tightening the seat belt tightly over the body in criti-

cal driving situations and then releasing it again.

WARNING

▶ On the retaining eyelets that are used to install the

child seat with the ISOFIXSystem provided, do not

attach any other child seats, belts or objects.

The ISOFIX system allows for the fast and secure in-

stallation of the child seat. The eyelets for installing

the child seat using the ISOFIX system are located

on the outer rear seats and possibly on the front pas-

senger seat.

A child seat that uses the ISOFIXsystem can only be

installed in the vehicle if it is approved for this vehi-

cle type. Further information can be obtained from a

ŠKODA partner or from a list of vehicles enclosed

with the child seat.
