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-

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.

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.

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.

Instruments and warning lights

CAUTION
■ Always depress the clutch pedal if switching to the neutral position (vehicle
with a manual gearbox) when the cruise control system is switched on! Otherwise
the engine can rev up unintentionally.
■ The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving
in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at
which it travels. Therefore, shift to a lower gear in good time or slow the vehicle
down by applying the foot brake. Note
It is not possible on vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox to switch on the
cruise control system if the selector lever is in the position N or R.ÐStoring a speed

Turn signal and main beam lever:
Rocker switch and switch of the
cruise control system
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 63.
Storing a speed
› Turn the switch A
» Fig. 68
into the ON position.
› After the desired speed has been reached, press the rocker button B
into the
SET position.
After you have released the rocker button B
out of the position SET
, the speed
you have just stored is maintained at a constant speed without having to depress
the accelerator. Ð
ä Changing a stored speed
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 63.
Increasing the speed with the accelerator
› Depress the accelerator to increase the speed.
› Release the accelerator to reduce the speed back down to the preset speed.
However, if the saved speed is exceeded by more than 10
km/h for a period of
more than 5 minutes by depressing the accelerator, the stored speed is deleted
from the memory. You have to re-store the desired speed.
Increasing the speed with the rocker button B
›
Press the rocker button B
» Fig. 68
on page 64 into the RES position.
› The speed will increase continuously, if the rocker button is pressed and held in
the RES position. Release the rocker button once the desired speed is reached.
The set speed is then stored in the memory.
Decreasing the speed
› The stored speed can be
reduced by pressing the rocker button B
» Fig. 68 on
page 64
into the position SET.
› The speed will decrease continuously, if the rocker button is pressed and held
in the SET position. Release the rocker button once the desired speed is
reached. The set speed is then stored in the memory.
› If the rocker button is released at a speed of less than 30 km/h, the speed is
not stored and the memory is erased. The speed must then be stored again by
pressing the rocker button B
in the position SET after increasing the speed of
the vehicle to more than 30
km/h.
The speed can also be reduced by depressing the brake pedal, which temporarily
deactivates the system. Ð Switching off the cruise control system temporarily
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 63.
The cruise control system is
temporarily switched off
by pressing the switch A
