affix the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of the
dash panel on the driver's side.

On vehicles which are equipped with inform ation display*, you can call up this infor-

Service Interval

ResetCaution
We recommend that you do not reset the Se rvice Interval Display yourself otherwise
this can result in the service interval display being incorrectly set, which may also result
in problems with operation of your 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.

If the instrument cluster is exchanged af ter a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by a
specialist garage.

The data displayed is the same after resetting the display with flexible service inter-
vals (QG1) using the reset button as that for a vehicle with fixed service intervals (QG2).
We therefore recommend having the Service Interval Display reset only by an author-
ised Škoda Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for resetting 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 in formation by pressing the button.
On vehicles which are fitted out with the information display*, it is possible to set the
time in the menu Time  page 25.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons but only when
the vehicle is stationary!Shift recommendation for changing gears*An information for the engaged gear fig. 17 is shown in the display of the instru-
ment cluster.
In order to minimise the fuel consumptio n, a recommendation for shifting into
another gear is indicated in the display.
If the control unit recognises that it is ap propriate to change the gear, an arrow is
shown in the display. The arrow points up or down, depending on whether it is recom-
mended to shift into a higher or lower gear.
At the same time, the recommended gear is indicated instead of the currently engaged
gear .
