ment.
Memory
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 29.
The multifunction display is equipped with three automatic memories.
The display of the selected memory varies depending on vehicle equipment.
Since start (MAXI DOT display) or “1” (segment display)The memory collates the driving information from the moment the ignition isswitched on until it is switched off.
New data will also flow into the calculation of the current driving information if
the trip is continued within 2 hours after switching off the ignition.
If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours, the memory is automatically
erased.
Long-term (MAXI DOT display) or “2” (segment display)
The memory gathers driving information from any number of individual journeys
up to a total of 99 hours and 59 minutes driving or 9999 kilometres driven.
The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached and the calculation
starts all over again.
Since refuel (MAXI DOT display) or “3” (segment display)
The memory gathers driving information since the last refuelling.
The memory is erased automatically the next time you fill up.

Range
The range indicates the distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the
level of fuel in the tank and the same style of driving as before.
The display is shown in steps of 10 km. After lighting up of the warning icon the
display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption over the last 50 km is used to calculate the range. The
range can increase if you drive in a more fuel-efficient manner.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption 1)
is calculated since the last time the memory was
erased.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time, you must set the memory at the start of the new measurement to zero » page 29 .
After erasing the memory, no fuel consumption data will appear for the first
100 m driven.
The indicated information is updated continuously while you are driving.
Current fuel consumption
You can use this information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel con-
sumption 1)
.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed 2)
.
Oil temperature
If the engine oil temperature is in the range 80-110 °C, the engine operating tem-
perature is reached.
If the oil temperature is lower than 80 °C or above 110 °C, avoid high engine revs,
full throttle and high engine loads.
If the oil temperature is lower than 50 °C or if a fault in the system for checking the oil temperature is present,
are displayed instead of the oil temperature.

Automatic windscreen wiping in rain
Automatic windscreen wiping in rain can be activated or deactivated in the Info-
tainment » Operating instructions for Infotainment , chapter Vehicle settings (CAR
button) .
Automatic wipe/wash for windscreen
The wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wipers wipe somewhat
later. The wash system and the windscreen wiper operate simultaneously at a
speed of more than 120 km/h.
Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to stop and the wipers to continue for another 2-3 wiper strokes (depending on the spraying duration).
At a speed of more than 2 km/h, the wiper wipes once again 5 seconds after the last wiper stroke in order to wipe the last drops from the windscreen. This func-
tion can be activated/deactivated by a specialist garage.
Automatic wipe/wash for the rear windowThe wash system operates immediately, the windscreen wiper wipes somewhat
later.
Letting go of the operating lever will cause the windscreen wash system to stop and the wiper to continue for another 2-3 wiper strokes (depending on the spray-
ing duration). The operating lever remains in position 6
.
Automatic rear window wipe (Octavia Estate)
If the lever is in position
2
or
3
» Fig. 42 , the rear window is wiped every
30 or 10 seconds if the vehicle's speed exceeds 5 km/h.
If automatic windscreen wiping in rain is activated (the operating lever is in the
position
1
) the function is only active if the windscreen wipers operate in contin-
uous mode (no break between each wiping process).
Automatic rear window wiping can be activated or deactivated in the Infotain-
ment » Operating instructions for Infotainment , chapter Vehicle settings (CAR
button) .
Winter setting of the windscreen wiper If the windscreen wipers are in rest position, they cannot be folded out from thewindscreen. For this reason we recommend adjusting the windscreen wipers in
winter so that they can be folded out from the windscreen easily.
› Switch on the windscreen wipers.
› Switch off the ignition.
The windscreen wipers remain in the position in which they were when switching
off the ignition.
The service position can also be used as a winter position » page 250
.
Note
If the slow or the fast wiper setting is switched on and the vehicle speed decrea-
ses to below 4 km/h, the wiper speed is incrementally set to a lower wiper speed.
The original setting is restored step by step when the speed of the vehicle ex-
ceeds 8 km/h.
Headlight cleaning system
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 65.
The headlights will be cleaned once the ignition is on and always upon the first and after every tenth spraying of the windscreen, when the low beam is switched
on.
Each time the headlamps are cleaned each lamp is sprayed twice. You should remove stubborn dirt (such as insect residues) from the headlight len-
ses at regular intervals, for example when refuelling. The following guidelines
must be observed » page 207, Headlight lenses .
To ensure the proper operation of the cleaning system during the winter, any
snow should be removed from the washer nozzle fixtures and ice should be
cleared with a de-icing spray.
CAUTION
Never remove the nozzles from the headlight cleaning system by hand – risk of
damage!
Note
The headlamp cleaning system works with an ambient temperature of about -12 °
C to + 39 ° C.

WARNING■The items which you transport on the roof rack must be reliably attached –
risk of accident!■
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps or
tensioning straps.
■
Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
the roof rack system, the handling of the car may change as a result of the displacement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed musttherefore be adapted to the current circumstances.
■
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and gross permissible
weight of the vehicle must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of
accident!
CAUTION
■ Only use roof rack systems approved by ŠKODA AUTO a.s.■When dealing with roof rack systems, the installation instructions supplied with
the roof luggage rack system must be observed.■
On models fitted with a sliding/tilting roof, ensure that the sliding/tilting roof
does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
■
Ensure that the luggage compartment lid does not hit the roof load when
opened.
■
The height of the vehicle changes after mounting a roof luggage rack system
and the load that is secured to it. Compare the vehicle height with available clear-
ances, such as underpasses and garage doors.
■
Always remove the roof luggage rack system before entering an automated car
wash.
■
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the secured load.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption.NoteThe removed roof rack for the Octavia Estate can be stowed in the stowage com-
partment under the variable loading floor » page 97, Stowing roll-up luggage
compartment cover and roof racks .
