Technical Data
Note
If the display of the second speed is activated in mph or km/h, this speed is shown
instead of the odometer on the display.Service Interval DisplayService Interval Display
Before the next service interval a key symbol

and the remaining kilometres 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 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.
Resetting Service Interval Display
It is only possible to reset the Service In terval 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 follo wing service interval to the side of the
dash panel on the driver's side.
This can be reset as follows: Press the button page 15, fig. 15 and keep it
pressed down, start the ignition, release the button and turn it to the left or right.
Caution
We recommend you ask a specialist garage to reset the service interval display.
Incorrectly setting the service interval display can cause problems to the 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.
•
The service interval display will need to be re-configured if the instrument
cluster is replaced. Contact a specialist garage. This work is carried out by a
specialist garage.
•
The data displayed is the same after rese tting the display with flexible service
intervals (QG1) using the reset button as th at for a vehicle with fixed service inter-
vals (QG2). We therefore recommend having the Service Interval Display reset only
by an authorised Škoda Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for reset-
ting the display with a vehicle system tester.
•
Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive information about
the service intervals.
Digital clockYou can set the time with the rotary knob page 15, fig. 15 .
Select the information which you wish to change by turning the button and carry
out the change of the selected information by pressing the button.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while dr iving for safety reasons but only when
the vehicle is stationary!

Recommended gear*An information for the selected gear fig. 17 is shown in the display of the
instrument cluster.
In order to minimise the fuel consumpt ion, a recommendation for shifting into
another gear is indicated in the display.
If the control unit recognises that it is appropriate to change the gear, an arrow
is shown in the display. The arrow points upwards or downwards depending on
whether it is recommended to switch to a higher or lower gear.
At the same time, the recommended gear is indicated instead of the currently
selected gear .Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer)*IntroductionThis data from the multi-functional indicator appears in the display fig. 18 .
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.MemoryThe multi-functional indicator is equi pped with two automatic memories. The
selected memory is displayed in the middle of the display field fig. 18 .
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 over the memory takes place with the button page 19, fig. 19 on the
windshield wiper lever.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the drivin g information from the moment the igni-
tion is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the calcula-
tion of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours after
switching off the ignition. The memory will be is automatically 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 da
ta from any number of individual jour-
neys up to a total of 19 hours and 59 minutes driving or 1.999 kilometres driven. The
memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calculation starts
from anew.
The total-trip memory will no t, contrary to the single-trip memory, be deleted after
a period of interruption of driving of 2 hours.
Note
All information in the memory 1 and 2 is erased if the battery of the vehicle is
disconnected.Operating with the buttons on the windshield wiper leverThe rocker and the button are located in the grip of the window wiper lever
 fig. 19 .Selecting the memory– Tapping the rocker on the windshield wiper lever allows you to select the
desired memory.Selecting the functions– Press the rocker up or down. In this way, call up in sequence the individual
functions of the multi-functional indicator.Setting function to zero– Select the memory you want. –Press button .
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.
Outside temperatureThe outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is switched on.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C, a snow flake symbol (warning signal
for ice on the road) appears before the te mperature indicator and a warning signal
sounds. After pressing the rocker on the windshield wiper lever fig. 19 , the
function which was shown last is indicated.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature 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!Driving timeThe driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased, appears in
the display. If you wish to measure the driv ing time as of a particular time, you must
set the memory to zero at this moment in time by pressing the button fig. 19
on the windshield wiper lever for longer than 1 second.
The maximum distance indicated in both me mories is 19 hours and 59 minutes. The
indicator is set back to null if this period is exceeded.

– Use switch to set the requir
ed speed limit, e.g. 50 km/h.
– Confirm the speed limit that was set with button , or wait 5 seconds until the setting is saved automatically (the value stops flashing).
In this way you can set the limit in 5 km/h steps.
Configuring the speed limit while the vehicle is moving– With switch , choose the menu point Warning against excessive speeds.
– Drive e.°g at a speed of 50 km/h.
– Press the switch to accept the current speed as the speed limit (the value flashes).
If you wish to change the speed limit that was set, it is changed in 5 km/h intervals
(e.g. the accepted speed of 47 km/h increa ses to 50 km/h or decreases to 45 km/h).
– Confirm the speed limit that was set by pressing button again, or wait 5
seconds until the setting is saved automatically (the value stops flashing).
Changing or erasing the speed limit– With switch , choose the menu point Warning against excessive speeds.
– When you press the switch again, the speed limit is erased.
– Pressing the switch a further time ac tivates the change mode for the speed
limit.
If you exceed the configured speed, an ac oustic signal will sound as a warning. A
Warning against excessive speeds appears together with the set limit on the
display.
The set speed limit remains stored even after switching off the ignition.
WARNING
Pay attention primarily to the traffic situation! As the driver you are fully respon-
sible for road safety.
