The following will be displayed in the information display* for 10 seconds:
Service in ... km or ... days
Resetting Service Interval Display It is only possible to reset the Service Interval Display, if a service message or at least a pre-warning is shown on the display of the instrument cluster. We recommend having this resetting performed by a specialist garage.The specialist garage:
resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection;

makes an entry in the Service schedule;

affix the sticker with the entry of the following service interval to the side of the
dash panel on the driver's side. Reset the service interval displays by using the reset button
page 15 on the trip
counter. On vehicles which are equipped with inform
ation display*, you ca
n call up this infor-
mation in the menu
SETUP
page 23.
Caution
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 In
terval 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 clockThe time is set with the buttons and
page 15, fig. 15

ange with the button and carry out the

WARNING

You must not adjust the steering wheel when the vehicle is moving!

The driver must maintain a distance of
at least 25 cm to

- right. Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that the
airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!
For safety reasons the lever must always be firmly pushed up to avoid the
steering wheel altering its po
sition unintentionally when driving - risk of acci-
dent!

If you adjust the steering wheel furthe
r towards the head, you will reduce
the protection offered by the driver airbag in the event of an accident. Check that the steering wheel is
aligned to the chest.

When driving, hold the steering wheel
with both hands firmly on the outer
edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock po
sition. Never hold the steering wheel
firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the steering wheel or at the inne
r steering wheel edge). In such
cases, injuries to the
arms, the hands and the head can occur
when the driver airbag is deployed.

Always keep your feet in the footwel
l when the vehicle is being driven -
never place your feet on the instrument panel, out of the window or on the surfaces of the seats. You will be exposed to increased risk of injury if it becomes necessary to apply the brake or in the ev
ent of an accident. If an airbag is
deployed, you may suffer fatal injuries wh
en adopting an incorrect seated posi-
tion!
The seat backrests must not be angled
too far back when driving otherwise
this will affect proper operation of the se
at belts and of the airbag system - risk
of injury!Correct seated position for the occupants on the rear seats Occupants on the rear seats must sit upright, keep the feet in the foot- well and must have their se
at belts correctly fastened.
To reduce the risk of injury in the event of
a sudden braking manoeuvre or an accident,
