•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 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 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 informa-
tion about the service intervals.
Digital clock
A reset button is installed on the left below beside the speedom-
eter for adjusting the clock ⇒page 13, fig. 2 .
Set hours
– Turn the reset button to the left.
Setting minutes
– Turn the reset button to the right.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons
but only when the vehicle is stationary.
Multi-functional indicator (onboard
computer)*
Introduction

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 when 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
into the calculation of the current driving information if the trip is continued
within 2 hours after switching off the ignition. The memory will be is auto-
matically erased, on the other hand, if the trip is interrupted for more than
2 hours .
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total distance driven memory gathers data from any number of
indvidual journeys up to a total of 100 hours driving or 10 000 kilometres
driven. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and
the calculation starts from anew.
The total-trip memory will not, contrary to the single-trip memory, be
deleted after a period of interruption of driving of 2 hours.
Note
All information in the memory is erased if the battery of the vehicle is
disconnected.

Using the system
The rocker switch and the button are located in the grip of
the window wiper lever ⇒fig. 6 .
Selecting the memory
– Repeated short-term pressing of the button allows one to select the individual memories.
Selecting the functions
– Press the rocker switch up or down. This will cause the individual functions of the multi-functional indicator to appear
in the display one after the other.
Setting function to zero
– Select the memory you want.
– Press button for more than 1 second.
The following readouts of the selected memory will be set to zero by
button :
•average fuel consumption,
•distance driven,
•average speed,
•driving time.
You can only operate the multi-functional indicator when the ignition is
switched on. After the ignition is switched on, the function displayed is the
one which you last selected before switching off the ignition.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, a snow flake symbol
(warning signal for ice on the road) appears with the outside temperature
indicator ⇒page 20, fig. 7 and a warning signal* sounds for 10 seconds.
The snoke flake symbol draws the attention of the driver to possible black
ice formation. The display swicthes back after 10 seconds to the last
selected function.

Outside temperature
The outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is
switched on.
The correct outside temperature will be indicated with a delay of 5
minutes. If the vehicle is stationary (or driven at a very low speed) the
temperature indicated may be slightly higher than the actual outside
temperature because of heat radiated by the engine.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, a snow flake symbol
(warning signal for ice on the road) appears with the outside temperature
indicator ⇒fig. 7 and a warning signal* sounds for 10 seconds.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temper-
ature display that there is no ice on the road. Please note that black
ice may also be present on the road surface even at temperatures
around +4 °C - warning, drive with care!
Note
The outside temperature is not indicating when showing navigation data
(guidance to the destination). It must be called up over the menu (valid for
vehicles which have a navigation and information display).
Range
The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the
distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the present level of
fuel in the tank for the same style of driving. The readout is shown in steps
of 10 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is taken as a basis for calculating
the range. If you drive in a more economical manner from this moment on,
the range will be increased accordingly.
You first drive 50 km if the readout is reset (after disconnecting the battery)
before a new readout for the range is displayed.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100 km.
This information can help you to adapt your style of driving to the fuel
consumption you wish to achieve.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a
low speed.

Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is
shown in the display in litres/100 km ⇒page 18. This information can help
you to adapt your style of driving to the fuel consumption you wish to
achieve.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain
period of time you must first erase the memory at the start of the new
measurement using the button ⇒page 19, fig. 6 . A zero appears in
the display for the first 300 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving.
Note
The amount of fuel consumed will not be indicated.
Driving time
The driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased,
appears in the display ⇒page 18. If you wish to calculate the driving time
from a particular time of day you must first erase the memory at this
moment in time by pressing the button ⇒page 19, fig. 6 .
The maximum time indicated in both switch positions is 99 hours and 59
minutes. The indicator is set back to null if this period is exceeded.
Distance driven
The distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the
display ⇒page 18. If you wish to calculate the distance driven from a particular time of day you must first erase the memory at this moment in
time by pressing the button
⇒page 19, fig. 6 .
The maximum distance indicated in both switch positions is 9999 km. The
indicator is set back to null if this period is exceeded.
Average speed
The average speed since the memory was last erased is shown in the
display in km/hour ⇒page 18. If you wish to determine the average speed
over a certain period of time you must first erase the memory at the start
of the new measurement using the button ⇒page 19, fig. 6 .
A zero appears in the display for the first 100 m you drive after erasing the
memory.AB
