•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 Display can also be reset with the reset button as follows:
•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 display is reset.
Caution
We recommend that you do not reset th e 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 Servic e Interval Display if a new instrument cluster is installed during repair work. Th is 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 Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for resetting the display with a vehicle system tester.
•Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive information about the service intervals.
Digital clock
A reset button is installed on the left below beside the speedometer
for adjusting the clock ⇒page 13, fig. 2.

Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
Starting-off and Driving
Setting steering wheel position*You can set the height and the forward/back position of the steering
wheel to the desired position.
– Adjust the driver seat ⇒page 69.
– Pull the lever below the steering column ⇒fig. 87 down ⇒.
– Set the steering wheel to the desired position (concerning height
and forward/back position).
– Then push the lever up against the steering column until it locks
into place.
WARNING
•You must not adjust the steering wh eel when the vehicle is moving!
•The driver must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel ⇒fig. 88. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
•For safety reasons the lever must always be firmly pushed up to avoid the steering wheel altering its positi on unintentionally when driving - risk of accident!
•If you adjust the steering wheel fu rther towards the head, you will reduce the protection offered by the driver airbag in the event of an acci- dent. Check that the steering wh eel is aligned to the chest.
•When driving, hold the steering wheel with both hands firmly on the outer edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'cl ock position. Never hold the steering wheel firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the steering wheel or at th e inner steering wheel edge). In such cases, injuries to the arms, the hands and the head can occur when the driver airbag is deployed.

always be correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your occupants.
•The driver must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel ⇒page 135, fig. 104. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
•When driving, hold the steering wheel with both hands firmly on the outer edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'cl ock position. Never hold the steering wheel firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the steering wheel or at the inner steering wheel edge). In such cases, injuries to the arms, the hands and the head can occur when the driver airbag is deployed.
•Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as any objects may get behind the pedals during a driving or braking manoeuvre. You would then no longer be able to operate the clutch, to brake or accelerate.
Correct seated position for the front passenger
The front passenger must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm
from the dash panel so that the airbag offers the greatest
possible safety when an airbag is deployed.
For the safety of the front passenger and to reduce the risk of injury in the event of an accident, we recommend the following setting.
•Adjust the front passenger seat as far as possible to the rear.
•Adjust the head restraint so that the top edge of the head restraint is at the same level as the upper part of your head ⇒page 135, fig. 105.
•Fasten the seat belt correctly ⇒page 141, “How are seat belts correctly fastened?”.
In exceptional cases the front pass enger airbag can be deactivated ⇒page 152, “Deactivating an airbag”.
Adjusting the passenger seat ⇒page 70, “Adjusting the front seats”.
WARNING
•The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your occupants.
•The front passenger must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the dash panel. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
•Always keep your feet in the footwe ll when the car is being driven - never place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces of the seats. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply the brake or in the event of an accident. If an airbag is deployed, you may suffer fatal injuries when adopting an incorrect seated position!
•The backrests must not be angled too far back when driving other- wise this will affect proper operation of the seat belts and of the airbag system - risk of injury!
Correct seated position for the occupants on the rear seats
Occupants on the rear seats must sit upright, keep the feet in
the footwell and must have their seat belts correctly fastened.
To reduce the risk of injury in the event of a sudden braking manoeuvre or an accident, the occupants on the rear seats must observe the following.
