Towing a trailer

Technical requirements

The towing device must satisfy certain technical requirements.

Your vehicle is designed primarily for transporting persons and luggage. It can,

however, also be used for towing a trailer - provided certain technical equipment is

fitted.

If your vehicle has already been supplied with a factory-fitted towing device then

everything that is necessary for towing a trailer in technical terms, and in terms of

the law, has already been taken into account.

Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pin power socket for the electrical connection

between the vehicle and trailer. If the trailer which you wish to tow has a 7-pin

connector, you can use a suitable adapter

from Škoda original accessories.

This work must be carried out in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications

if a towing device is retrofitted.

Authorised Škoda Service Partners are familiar with details relating to retrofitting a

towing device and for any necessary modifications to the cooling system.

WARNING

We recommend that you have the towing device from Škoda original acces-

sories installed by an authorised Škoda Service Partner. He is familiar with

all the relevant details relating to retrofitting such equipment. There is a risk

of an accident if the towing device is not properly fitted!

General Maintenance

There are a number of points to pay attention to when towing a

trailer.

Trailer load

The permissible trailer load must on no account be exceeded.

You can negotiate appropriately steeper inclines and descents if you do not make

full use of the permissible trailer load.

The trailer loads specified only apply for altitudes up to 1 000 metres above mean

sea level. The fact that the engine power output drops with increasing height due to

a lowering of air pressure and thus the ability to climb, means that the towed weight

must be reduced by 10% for every further increase of 1 000 metres in height above

sea level. The towed weight is the weight of the (laden) vehicle and the (laden)

trailer together. One should take this into account before driving up to higher alti-

tudes.

The trailer and drawbar load information on the type plate of the towing

device are merely test data for the towing device The data relating to your

vehicle, which is often less than this test data, can be found in your vehicle

registration documents.

Distribution of the load

Distribute the load in the trailer in such a way that any heavy items are located as

close as possible to the axle. Secure the items to prevent them slipping.

Tyre inflation pressure

Select the tyre inflation pressure on your vehicle for that of “fully laden”,

⇒ page 235. The inflation pressure of the tyres fitted to the trailer adjust in accord-

ance with the manufacturer's recommendation.

Exterior mirrors

You have to have additional exterior mirrors fitted if you are not able to see the

traffic behind the trailer with the standard rear-view mirrors. Both exterior mirrors

In some countries the adapter is supplied with the towing device.
