odometer SKODA OCTAVIA 2006 Owner´s Manual

CAUTION
Never drive until the fuel tank is completely empty! An irregular supply of fuel can
lead to irregular engine running. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system
and damage the catalytic converter. Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates ap-
prox. a fraction less. When stopping or during less dynamic driving, the fuel gauge
displays the correct fuel level again. This is not a fault. ÐCounter for distance driven
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 8.
The distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km).
