Instruments and Indicator/Warning Lights24
The indicator light  does not flash if a turn signal light on the trailer or on the vehicle is not operating.
Coolant temperature/coolant level 
The warning light  comes on for a few seconds 1) when the ignition is switched on.
The coolant temperature is too high or the coolant level too low if the warning light  does not go out after the engine is started or flashes while driving.
3 peeps sound as an additional warning signal.
In this case stop and switch the engine off and check the coolant level; top up the coolant as necessary ⇒page 179, “Replenishing the coolant”.
Do not continue your journey if for some reason it is not possible under the conditions prevailing to top up with coolant. Keep the engine switched off and obtain professional assistance from a specialist garage, otherwise it could lead to severe engine damage.
If the coolant is within the specified range, the increased temperature may be caused by an operating problem at the coolant fan. Check the fuse for the coolant fan, replace it if necessary ⇒page 208, “Fuse assignment at battery”.
Do not continue driving if the warning light does not go off although the fluid is at the correct level and also the fuse of the fa n is in proper order. Contact a specialist garage to obtain assistance.
Please also refer to the additional instructions ⇒page 177, “Cooling system”.
The following text will be displayed in the information display*:
STOP CHECK COOLANT OWNER'S MANUAL!
WARNING
•If you must stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe distance from the traffic and switch off the engine and switch on the hazard warning light system ⇒page 48, “Switch for hazard warning lights ”.
•Pay attention to the following instructions ⇒page 173, “Working in the engine compartment” before checking the coolant fluid level and opening the bonnet.
•Take care when opening the coolant expa nsion bottle. If the engine is hot, the cooling system is pressurized - risk of scalding. It is best to allow the engine to cool down before removing the cap.
•Do not touch the coolant fan! The coolant fan may switch on automati- cally even if the ignition is off.
Electronic immobiliser 
Data is compared between the ignition ke y and the control unit when switching on the ignition. The indicator light  will light up for a few seconds when ignition key authorisation is confirmed.
The warning light will start flashing conti nuously if a non-authorised ignition key (for example the wrong ignition key) has been used. The engine cannot be started ⇒ page 31.
It is only possible to start the engine of your car with a Genuine Škoda key with the matching code.
Fuel reserve 
The warning light  comes on, if the fuel level is still about 7 litres.
A peep sounds as an additional warning signal.
The following text will be displayed in the information display*:
PLEASE REFUEL1)The warning light  on vehicles fitted with information display does not come on after switching the ignition on, but only if the coolant temperature is too high or the coolant levelis too low.

Heating and air conditioning system81
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
Close air outlet vents
– Turn the rotary knob into the lower position.
Redirecting air flow
– The horizontal as well as the vertical direction of the air flow is set with
the handle in the middle of the air outlet vents.
You can set the air supply to the individual vents with the air distribution control ⇒ page 78, fig. 84. Air outlet vents 3 and 4 can also be opened or closed individu- ally:
Unwarmed or cooled air will flow out of th e air outlet vents according to the setting of control dial ⇒page 78, fig. 84 and the atmospheric conditions.
Using the air conditioning system economically
The compressor on the Climatic uses power from the engine when in cooling mode which will effect the fuel consumption.
It recommended to open the windows or th e doors of a vehicle for which the inte- rior has been strongly heated through the ef fect of direct sunlight in order to allow the heated air to escape.
The cooling system should not be switched on while travelling when the window is open.
The desired interior temperature can also be achieved without switching in the cooling system just by switching to fresh air mode.
For the sake of the environment
When you economize on fuel, you also reduce pollutant emissions.
Operational problems
If the cooling system does not operate at outside temperatures higher than +2 °C, there is a problem in the system. The reasons for this may be:
•The fuse of the Climatic is defective. Check the fuse, replace it if necessary ⇒ page 205.
•The cooling system has switched off automatically for a short time because the coolant temperature of the engine is too hot ⇒page 10.
If you are not able to rectify the operat ional problem yourself, or if the cooling capacity decreases, switch the cooling sy stem off. Contact a specialist garage.
If there is a fault at the Climatronic, all symbols on the display flash after switching on the ignition for 15 seconds. Contact a specialist garage.
Climatronic (automatic air conditioning)*
Description
The Climatronic system is a comb ination of an automatic heating,
fresh air and cooling system which provides optimal comfort for the
occupants of the car.
The Climatronic maintains a constant temper ature fully automatically, once it has been set. This is achieved by automa tically varying the temperature of the outflowing air, the blower stages and the ai r distribution. The system also takes into account sunlight which eliminates the n eed to alter the settings manually. The automatic mode ⇒page 83 ensures maximum wellbeing of the occupants at all times of the year.
Description of Climatronic system
The cooling operates only if the following conditions are met:
•engine running,
•outside temperature above +2 °C,
•the button is not pressed.
If the cooling system is switched on, th e temperature and air humidity drops in the vehicle. The wellbeing of the occupants of the car is enhanced as a result of this particularly at high outside temperatur es and a high air humidity. The system prevents the windows misting up during the cold season of the year.

Starting-off and Driving88
•Let go of the key as soon as the engine starts otherwise there may be damage to the starter.
The engine running noises ma y louder at first be louder for a short time after starting the cold engine until oil pressure can be built up in the hydraulic valve clearance compensation. This is quite no rmal and is not an operating problem.
If the engine does not start ...
You can use the battery of anothe r vehicle as a jump-start aid ⇒page 200.
It is only possible to tow-start vehicles fitted with a manual gearbox. The tow- starting distance must not be more than 50 metres ⇒page 203.
WARNING
•Never run the engine in non ventilated or enclosed areas. The exhaust gases of the engine contain besides the odorless and colourless carbon monoxide a poisonous gas - hazard! Carbon monoxide can cause uncon- sciousness and death.
•Never leave your vehicle unattended with the engine running.
Caution
•The starter may only be operated (ignition key position ), if the engine is not running. If the starter is i mmediately operated after switching off the engine, the starter or the engine can be damaged.
•Avoid high engine revolutions, full throttl e and high engine loads as long as the engine has not yet reached its normal oper ating temperature - risk of damaging the engine!
•Vehicles which are fitted wi th an exhaust gas catalytic converter should not be tow-started over a distance of more than 50 metres.
For the sake of the environment
Never warm up the engine when the vehicle is standing. Drive off right away. When driving the engine reaches its operating temperature more rapidly and the pollutant emissions are lower.
Petrol engines
These engines are fitted with a starter system which selects the correct fuel/air mixture for every external air temperature.
•Do not operate accelerator befo re and when starting engine.
•Interrupt the attempt at starting after 10 seconds if the engine does not start right awayand wait for about 30 seconds before repeating the attempt.
•It is possible that the fuse on the electrical fuel pump is defect if the engine still does not start. Check the fuse and replace it if necessary ⇒page 205.
•If the engine does not start, contact the nearest specialist garage to obtain professional assistance.
It may be necessary, if the engine is very hot, to slightly depress the accelerator after the engine has started.
Diesel engines
Glow plug system
Diesel engines are equipped with a glow plug system, the preglow period being controlled automatically in line with the coolant temperature and outside temper- ature.
The preglow indicator light  comes on after the igniti on has been switched on.
You should not switch on any major electrical components during the heating period otherwise the vehicle battery will be drained unnecessarily.
•You should start the engine immediately after the glow plug warning light  has gone out.
•The glow plug warning light will come on for about one second if the engine is at a normal operating temperature or if th e outside temperature is above +5°C. This means that you can start the engine right away.
•Interrupt the attempt at starting after 10 seconds if the engine does not start right awayand wait for about 30 seconds before repeating the attempt.
•It is possible that the fuse on the dies el preglow system is defect if the engine still does not start. Check the fuse and replace it if necessary ⇒page 205.
