. 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)
.

Fig. 6
on
page 13 or with the adjustment wheel D
. Dashes appears in the display for the
first 100 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. Once the fuel gauge pointer reaches the
reserve marking, the range is displayed in 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.
If the memory is set to zero (after disconnecting the battery), the fuel consump-
tion of 10 ltr./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is adapted
accordingly to the style of driving.
Distance travelled
The distance driven since the memory was last erased appears in the dis-
play » page 12. If you wish to measure the distance travelled from a particular
point in time, you need to set the memory to zero at this point in time by pressing
the button B
» Fig. 6 on page 13 or the adjustment wheel D
.
The maximum distance indicated in both memories is 1

999 km or 9 999 km on
vehicles with an information display. 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 12 . If you wish to determine the average speed over a certain pe-
riod of time, you need to set the memory to zero at the start of the measurement
using the button B

■ If you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe dis-
tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and activate the hazard warning
light system » page 44.
■ Carefully open the coolant expansion bottle. If the engine is hot, the cooling
system is pressurized - risk of scalding! It is therefore best to allow the engine
to cool down before removing the cap.
■ Do not touch the radiator fan. The radiator fan may switch itself on auto-
matically even if the ignition is off. ÐBoot lid 
The indicator light  comes on if the boot lid is opened.

If the indicator light  lights up, this indicates a partial failure of the power steer-
ing and the steering forces can be greater. Seek help from a ŠKODA specialist ga-
rage.
If the indicator light  lights up, this indicates a complete failure of the power
steering and the steering assist has failed (significantly higher steering forces).
