The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Service now!
The display disappears within 20 seconds after switching on the ignition.
The trip counter is also displayed after pressing the reset button for the trip
counter (for more than 1 second).
Display regarding the distance and days until the following service
interval
You can have the distance still to be driven and the days until the following
service interval displayed at any time as follows:
•Switch on the ignition and press the reset button ⇒page 13, fig. 2
for more than 2 seconds.
A key symbol
is displayed on the display of the counter for the
distance driven. The remaining distance to be driven will be indicated for
10 seconds next to the key symbol and then the remaining number of days
to the due date for the service inspection.
Resetting Service Interval Display
We recommend having this resetting performed by a specialist garage.
Specialist garage:
•resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection
•makes an entry in the Service schedule
•affix the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the
side of the dash panel on the driver's side.
The service interval displays can also be reset as follows by using the
reset button ⇒page 13, fig. 2 on the trip counter:
•Switch off the ignition, press the reset button of the trip counter for
distance driven and hold it down.
•Switch the ignition on and release the reset button. Now turn the reset
button to the right. The service interval displays are reset.
Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the Service Interval Display yourself
otherwise this can result in the service interval display being incorrectly
set, which may also result in problems with operation of your vehicle.
Note
•Never reset the display between service intervals otherwise this may
result in incorrect readouts.
•Information is retained in the Service Interval Display also after the
battery of the vehicle is disconnected.
•It is necessary to re-code the Service Interval Display if a new instru-
ment cluster is installed during repair work. This work is carried out by a
specialist garage.
•The data displayed is the same after resetting the display with flexible
service intervals (QG1) using the reset button as that for a vehicle with
fixed service intervals (QG2). We therefore recommend having the
Service Interval Display reset only by a Škoda dealer who is familiar with
the procedure for resetting the display with a vehicle system tester.
•Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive informa-
tion about the service intervals.
Digital clock
A clock-set button is installed on the bottom left beside the
speedometer for adjusting the clock ⇒page 13, fig. 2 .

Multi-functional indicator (onboard
computer)*
Introduction
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display ⇒fig. 5 or in the infor-
mation display ⇒page 23, fig. 10 depending on the equipment fitted to
your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information.
Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of
measures.
Memory
The multi-functional indicator is equipped with two automatic memories.
The selected memory is displayed in the middle of the display field ⇒fig. 5 .
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in
the display. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total
distance memory (memory 2).
Switching of the memory takes place with the button ⇒page 19, fig. 6 .
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment
the ignition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow The outside temperature⇒ page 20
