Instruments and warning lights
18Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! The irregular supply of the fuel system can
lead to irregular running of the engine. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system
and damage the catalytic converter.
Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dy namic driving (e.g. numerous curves, braking,
driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates approx. a fraction
less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the correct fuel supply quantity is
indicated. This effect is not a fault.Counter for distance drivenThe distance which you have driven with yo ur vehicle is shown in kilometres (km). In
some countries the measuring unit “mile” is used.
Reset button
If you hold the reset button page 16 pressed for about 1 second, the trip counter
is set back to zero.
Trip counter for distance driven
The trip counter indicates the distance which you have driven since it was last reset -
in steps of 100 metres or 1/10 of a mile.
Counter for distance driven
The counter for distance driven indicates th e total distance in kilometers or miles
which the vehicle has been driven.
Fa u l t d i s p l a y
If there is a fault in the instru ment cluster, the constant text Error appears in the display.
Have the fault rectified as soon as possible by a specialist workshop.
WARNING
Never seek to adjust the trip counter for distance driven while driving for safety
reasons!
Note
If vehicles which are fitted with the info rmation display* the display of the second
speed is activated in mph or km/h, this driving speed is indicated instead of the
counter for the total distance driven.Service Interval DisplayDepending on the equipment installed in the vehicle, the text can differ on the display.
Service Interval Display
Before the next service interval a key symbol

and the remaining kilometers are
indicated after switching on the ignition fig. 16 . At the same time, a display appears
regarding the remaining days until the next service interval.
The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Service in ... km or ... days
The kilometre indicator or the days indicator reduces in steps of 100 km. or days until
the service due date is reached.
A flashing key symbol

and the text Service appears in the display for 20 seconds
as soon as the due date for the service is reached.
The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Service now!

Resetting Service Interval Display
It is only possible to reset the Service Interval Display, if a service message or at least a
pre-warning is shown on the display of the instrument cluster.
We recommend having this resetting performed by a specialist garage.
The 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.
Reset the service interval displays by using the reset button page 16 on the trip
counter.
On vehicles which are equipped with inform ation display*, you can call up this infor-
mation in the following menu on page 24:





Reset
Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the Se rvice Interval Display yourself otherwise
this can result in the service interval displa y 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 Inte rval Display also after the battery of the
vehicle is disconnected.

If the instrument cluster is exchanged after a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by a
specialist garage.

The data displayed is the same after resetting the display with flexible service inter-
vals (QG1) using the reset button as that for a vehicle with fixed service intervals (QG2).
We therefore recommend having the Service In terval Display reset only by an author-
ised 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 clockThe time is set with the buttons page 16, fig. 15 and .
Select the display which you wish to ch ange with the button and carry out the
change with the button .
On vehicles which are fitted out with the information display*, it is possible to set the
time in the menu Time  page 26.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons but only when
the vehicle is stationary!

mended to shift into a higher or lower gear.
At the same time, the recommended gear is indicated instead of the currently engaged
gear .Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer) *IntroductionThe multi-functional indicator appears in the display fig. 18 or in the information

The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information. On vehicles which are fitted ou
t with information display*, it is possible to switch off
the display of some information.

connected to the MDI input and the automatic gearbox.
Certain functions and operating conditions are always being checked on the vehicle
when the ignition is switched on and also while driving.
Functional faults, if required repair work and other information are indicated by red
symbols page 26 and yellow symbols page 26.
Lighting up of certain symbols is combined with an acoustic warning signal.
Information and texts giving warnings are also shown in the display page 28.

be equipped with keys without radio remote control or with radio remote control keys*
 fig. 22 .
WARNING

Always withdraw the key whenever you leave the vehicle - even if it is only
for a short time. This is particularly important if children are left in the vehicle.
The children might otherwise start the en gine or operate electrical equipment
(e.g. power windows) - risk of injury!


come to a stop. The steerin g lock might otherwise enga ge unintentionally - risk
of accident!Caution

Each key contains electronic components; therefore protect them against moisture
and severe shocks.

Keep the groove of the keys absolutely clean as impurities (textile fibres, dust etc.)
have a negative effect on the proper operation of the locking cylinder and the ignition
lock.
Note
Please approach a specialist garage if you lose a key since he can obtain a new one for
you.Changing the battery in the remote control keyFig. 23 Disconnect key with radio remote control / change batteryEach remote control key contains a ba ttery which is housed in the cover fig. 23
