Vehicles running on petrol
The fuel gauge
» Fig. 4 only operates if the ignition is switched on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 35 litres. If the fuel gauge in the fuel tank
reaches the reserve capacity level, the warning symbol  » Fig. 4 -  will appear
in the Instrument cluster. or the symbol  will flash for 10 seconds together with
the remaining segments in the instrument cluster display » Fig. 4 - . There are
now about 4 litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a reminder for you,
that you must refuel .
An audible signal sounds as a warning signal.
Vehicles running on CNG (compressed natural gas)
The fuel gauge » Fig. 5 only operates if the ignition is switched on.
When the vehicle runs on petrol, the pointer of the fuel gauge is in the range 1
» Fig. 5. When the vehicle runs on CNG, the pointer of the fuel gauge is in the
range 2
.
If the fuel level in the fuel tank for petrol reaches the reserve level, the warning
symbol  will appear in the instrument cluster. The pointer is in the red range of
the gauge 1
» Fig. 5. There are now about 5 litres of fuel remaining in the tank.
If the fuel level in the fuel tank for CNG reaches the reserve level, the warning
symbol  will appear in the instrument cluster. The pointer is in the red range of
the gauge 2
» Fig. 5. There are now about 1.5

kg of fuel remaining in the tank. Ð Engine revolutions counter
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
The red scale of the rev counter 5
» Fig. 3 on page 8 indicates the range in which
the engine control unit begins to limit the engine speed. The engine control unit
restricts the engine speed to a steady limit.
Before reaching the red zone of the rev counter scale, shift up into the next high-
er gear.
To maintain the optimum motor speed, observe the gearshift indica-
tor » page 10. £

Instruments and warning lights

Avoid high engine speeds during the running-in period and before the engine has
warmed up to the operating temperature . For the sake of the environment
Shifting to a higher gear in good time helps to lower fuel consumption, minimises
operating noise levels, protects the environment and contributes to a longer life
and reliability of the engine. ÐCounter for distance driven
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
The distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km).
In some countries the measuring unit
“mile” is used.
Reset button
To toggle between the odometer and the daily trip counter, briefly press the but-
ton 3
» Fig. 2 on page

8 or » Fig. 3 on page 8.
To reset the display of the daily trip counter, press button 3
for longer.
Daily trip counter (trip)
The daily 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.
Odometer
The odometer indicates the total distance in kilometres or miles which the vehicle
has been driven. ÐService Interval Display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
Before the next service interval, the message
  appears for some seconds and
the remaining kilometres are indicated after switching on the ignition.
At the time of the service, an acoustic signal will sound and the message  

 ap-
pears for a few seconds after switching on the ignition. ä
ä Resetting Service Interval Display
The ŠKODA specialist garage:
› Resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection
› Adds an entry to the Service Schedule
› Affixes the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of
the dashboard on the driver's side Note
■ Information is retained in the Service Interval Display even after the vehicle bat-
tery 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 ŠKODA specialist garage. ■ For more information on the service intervals » Service Plan. Ð Recommended gear
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
An information for the engaged gear is shown in the display of the instrument
cluster.
In order to minimise the fuel consumption, a recommendation for shifting into an-
other gear is indicated in the display.
Show Importance
 Optimal gear.
 Recommends that you shift to a higher gear.

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Memory 11
Operation 12
Digital clock 12
Multifunction display details 12
Warning against excessive speeds 13
The multifunction display can only be operated 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.
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display » Fig. 6 on page 11. WARNING
■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.
■ Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature dis-
play that there is no ice on the road. Even at temperatures around +4 °C, black
ice may still be on the road surface – warning, drive with care! Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of meas-
ures. Ð Memory
Fig. 6
Multifunction display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 11.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories. The selected
memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 6.
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the dis-
play. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance mem-
ory (memory
2).
Switching over the memory takes place with the button B
» Fig. 7 on page 12
on the windscreen wiper lever.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the ig-
nition is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the cal-
culation of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours
after switching off the ignition. If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours,
the memory is automatically erased.
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total distance driven memory gathers data from any number of individual
journeys up to a total of 19 hours and 59

minutes driving or 1 999 kilometres driv-
en. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calcula-
tion starts all over again.
Unlike the single-trip memory, the total-trip memory is not deleted after a period
of interruption of driving of 2 hours. £

Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100
km1)
. You
can use this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel consump-
tion.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed 2)
.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is shown in the
display in litres/100 km 1 )
» page 11. You can use this information to adapt your
driving style to the desired fuel consumption.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time, you must set the memory at the start of the new measurement to zero us-
ing the button B

» Fig. 7 on page 12. A zero appears in the display for the first
approx. 300 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
Range
The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the dis-
tance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the level of fuel in the tank
and the same style of driving.
The display is shown in steps of 10

km. After lighting up of the warning light for
the fuel reserve the display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption over the last 50 km is used to calculate the range. The
range will increase if you drive in a more economical manner.
Distance travelled
The distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the dis-
play » page 11. If you want to measure the distance travelled from a particular mo-
ment in time on, at this moment, reset the memory by setting the button B
» Fig. 7 on page

12 to zero.
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 1 999 km. The indicator is
set back to zero 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 11. If you wish to determine the average speed over a certain
period of time, you must set the memory to zero at the start of the measurement
using the button B
on the windscreen wiper lever
» Fig. 7 on page 12.
After erasing the memory, no value appears in the display until you have driven
approx. 300 m.
The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
