Whatever your needs, there’s bound to be an Octavia
to suit you. From the entry level S, to the sporty vRS,
to the top of the range Laurin & Klement. In need of a
four wheel drive? Then there’s the 4x4, or the even
more adventurous Scout.
Every Škoda is covered by Škoda Roadside Assistance.
So if you break down, even if you’re on holiday or on
business in Europe, you can use the freephone
number to call someone to come and help you.
Best of all it’s completely free for 3 years.
With driver and passenger front and side airbags as
standard on all models, the new Octavia has safety at
its core. The newly designed front headrests, which

MSR: the engine torque control system recognises
when the wheels are subject to too much slippage
and regulates the power supply by intervening in the
engine management system. This prevents wheelspin
when, for example, changing down on a smooth or
wet road surface. MSR is a constituent part of the
ASR system.
EDL: the electronic differential lock continually
compares the rpm of the drive wheels, and if it
dentifies a difference between them which could
i
lead to an individual wheel spinning, for example if
the two wheels ar
accelerating on wet leaves, the system brakes the
wheel affected until uniform rpm of all drive wheels
is restored.
ASR: anti-slip regulation traction control ensures the
Octavia’s stability when pulling away or accelerating.
If the engine power or torque being transmitted to
the drive wheels is too great, for example on
a slippery road surface, engine torque is
automatically reduced until optimum road-holding
returns, thus preventing wheelspin. A light indicates
whether the ASR system is on. It can be manually
switched off.

ESP: electronic stability programme is designed to
stabilise the dynamic handling response of the
vehicle by counteracting any tendency towards
oversteer or understeer. The ESP constantly
compares the actual movement of the vehicle with
predetermined values and according to the situation
ESP reacts by braking each wheel individually
according to direction of slip) and automatically
(
adjusting the engine’s output.
AN Bus:the CAN Bus is an electronic data bus
C
which links the various different electronic control
systems in the car
between systems and reduces the amount of
wiring needed in the car.
The CAN Bus system (described above) requires a
new generation of towing electrical adapters and the
Octavia utilises a 13-pin European System. This can
then be easily converted to a single 7 pin socket for
users with a trailer. For users with Caravans a number
of options are available depending on the need for a
fixed/detachable Towbar, ability to use reversing
sensors and age of Caravan. A number of different 13
Pin to Twin 7 pin adapters are available - please ask
your retailer for more information.

DPF: diesel particulate filter is part of the exhaust
system responsible for cleaning the engine exhaust
ases before they enter the atmosphere
g
catches soot particles emitted in the exhaust gas and
it works in conjunction with the catalytic converter,
hich reduces the amount of harmful gases entering
w
the atmosphere. The DPF must periodically be
emptied of the soot par
regeneration. This involves elevated exhaust system
temperatures. A driving style is required during
regeneration, where a constant vehicle speed above
37 mph must be maintained. This does not always
suit customers who make frequent short journeys
or experience stop/start driving or drive within
inner-city or urban areas.

and traction when cornering, and allows for more
accurate steering.
