The warning lights indicate certain functions or faults.
Some warning lights can be accompanied by acoustic signals and messages in
the display of the instrument cluster.
After switching on the ignition, some warning lights light up briefly as a func-
tion test.
If the tested systems are OK, the corresponding warning lights go out a few
seconds after switching on the ignition or after starting the engine. 

Display a low temperature
Read and observe
on page 39 first.
If the outside temperature drops below +4 °C while driving, the warning light 
(low temperature warning) illuminates and an audible signal sounds.
If the outside temperature is below +4 °C when the ignition is switched on, the
following warning light appears in the display .
WARNINGEven at temperatures of around +4 °C, black ice may still be on the road
surface! You should therefore not only rely on the outside temperature dis- play for accurate information as to whether there is ice on the road.39Information system

layout shown in » Fig. 47 on page 64 . The symbols which mark the positions
of the controls are identical.
Keep the headlights lenses clean » page 155, Headlight glasses .
WARNINGThe automatic driving lamp control  only operates as a support and
does not release the driver from his responsibility to check the lights and, if
necessary, to switch on the light depending on the prevailing light condi-
tions.
Note
The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although
the headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist
has no influence on the life of the lighting system.Operating the lightsFig. 47

The Xenon bulbs adapt automatically to the load and driving state of the vehi-

64Using the system

Dynamic cornering lights
The cone of light in front of the vehicle is adjusted to the steering angle so
that the road in the curve is illuminated. This function is active at speeds
greater than 10 km/h and in all system modes.
Tourist lights (Travel mode)
This mode makes it possible to drive in countries with opposing traffic system
(driving on the left/right) without dazzling the oncoming vehicles.
If this mode is activated, there is no automatic cone of light adaptation in front
of the vehicle. When switching on the ignition the warning light 
flashes for
10 seconds.
This mode can be enabled / disabled via the MAXI DOT display in the Travelmode
» page 47 , Menu item
Settings
menu option.
WARNINGIf there is a system malfunction the headlights are automatically lowered
to the emergency position, which prevents a possible dazzling of oncoming
traffic. This reduces the cone of light in front of the vehicle. Drive carefully
and visit a specialist garage as soon as possible.

Note
While driving with an accessory connected to the trailer socket (e.g. trailer,
bike carrier) only the equipment is illuminated by the fog light. The towing de-
vice must be installed at the factory or from the ŠKODA original accessories.
Fog lights with the CORNER function
Read and observe
on page 64 first.
The function CORNER provides better illumination of the nearby environmentwhen turning, manoeuvring or anything similar.
The function automatically switches on the fog lights on each side of the ve- hicle, if the following conditions are met.
The turn signal is switched on or the front wheels are turned sharply 1)

The vehicle speed is below 40 km/h.
The low beam is switched on.
The fog lights are not switched on.
Note
The two fog lights are switched on when you shift into the reverse gear.

CAUTION■“Never repair” fuses, and do not replace them with fuses of a higher amper-
age – risk of fire! This may also cause damage at another part of the electrical
system.■
If a newly inserted fuse blows again after a short time, have the electrical
system checked as quickly as possible by a specialist garage.
■
A blown fuses is recognisable by the molten metal strip. Replace the faulty
fuse with a new one of the same amperage.
Note
■
We recommend always carrying replacement fuses in the vehicle. A box of
replacement fuses and bulbs can be purchased from ŠKODA Original Accesso-
ries.■
There can be several power consuming devices for one fuse.
■
Multiple fuses may exist for a single power consuming device.

Some manual skills are required to change a bulb. For this reason, we recom-
mend having bulbs replaced by a specialist garage or seeking other expert help
in the event of any uncertainties.
▶ Switch off the ignition and the relevant lights before replacing a bulb.
▶ Faulty bulbs must only be replaced with the same type of bulbs. The designa-
tion is located on the light socket or the glass bulb.
A stowage compartment for replacement bulbs is located in a box under the floor covering in the luggage compartment.
We recommend having the headlight settings checked by a specialist garage after replacing a bulb in the low, high or fog beam.
In case of failure of a xenon gas discharge lamp or an LED diode, visit a special- ist garage.
WARNING■ Always read and observe the warnings before completing any work in the
engine compartment » page 165.■
Accidents can be caused if the road in front of the vehicle is not suffi-
ciently illuminated and the vehicle cannot or can only be seen with difficul-
ty by other road users. 
