The arrangement of the controls and the styling of the dash
panel depend on the model version.

Equipment marked with * is fitted as standard only to certain
model versions or is available only for certain models as optional
equipment.

On right-hand drive vehicles the arrangement of the controls
and switches and the location of some items may vary. The sym-
bols on the controls and switches are the same as for left-hand
drive vehicles.
1)Cars with factory-fitted radio are supplied with a radio instruction lea\
flet.

50CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTNote

Do not reset the readout between ser-
vice intervals, otherwise an incorrect rea-
dout will be displayed.

The information is retained even if the
vehicle battery is disconnected.

If the instrument cluster is replaced du-
ring repairs, it is necessary to reset the
service interval display. This should be
done by a Škoda Dealership.
It is not recommended to reset the serv-
ice interval display yourself otherwise
this may result in incorrect settings and
thus in possible faults in the vehicle.
After resetting the service interval dis-
play on models fitted with LongLife Serv-
ice*, the service messages are displayed
in the same way as on models not fitted
with LongLife Service.
For this reason we recommend having
the service interval display reset in a
Škoda Dealership. The service interval
display is correctly reset by the Škoda
Dealership using a diagnostic tester.
Fault display
If there is a fault in the instrument cluster,
„dEF“ appears continuously in the display
panel of the trip counter. The fault should
be rectified as soon as possible by a Škoda
Dealer.
5 - Digital clockA knob is provided at the bottom right of
the rev counter for setting the time.

The hours can be set by turning the knob
to the left.

The minutes can be set by turning the
knob to the right.
Warning

Always withdraw the key from the
ignition lock when leaving the car -
even if only for a short time.

For safety reasons, do not attempt
to set the time when driving. When
setting the time, the button should
only be turned and not pressed oth-
erwise the clock may be damaged.
5 - Multi-function display*The information appears in the rev coun-
ter display or in the information display -
see page 53 - depending on the vehicle
equipment.
The multifunctional display shows in
addition to the time a range of further
information:

Outside temperature

Range

Current fuel consumption level

Average fuel consumption

Counter for the distance driven

Average speed

Driving time

Time of day

56CONTROLS AND EQUIPMENTIndicator/warning lightsThe position of the indicator/warning lights
depends on the model and engine versi-
on. You will find the symbols presented in
the description which follows on or at the
corresponding indicator/warning lights in
the instrument cluster.
When certain warning lights come on, this
is accompanied by an audible signal. A text
may also be shown in the information dis-
play* - see previous chapters.
Turn signal systemThe right or left indicator light flashes when
switching over the turn signal light upwards
or downwards.
If a turn signal fails, the warning light flashes
twice as fast. This does not apply when
towing a trailer. Both warning lights flash
when the hazard warning system is swit-
ched on.Main beamThe warning light comes on when main
beam is switched on or when the headlight
flasher is used.
Further details are given on page 67.Airbag system*The warning light comes on for a few sec-
onds when ignition is switched on.
If the lamp does not go out or if it comes on
again when driving, there is a fault in the
system. This is also valid if the warning light
does not come on when switching on the
ignition. Further information see page 103.
Text in the information display*: AIRBAG
FAULT (fault at airbag)
The operational readiness of the airbag
system is monitored electronically, also on
deactivated front passenger airbag or side
airbag.
WarningIf you do not pay attention to the warn-
ing lights coming on and the corre-
sponding descriptions and warning
notes, this may result in severe body
injuries or major vehicle damage.The engine compartment of your car
is a hazardous area.There is a risk of injuries, scalding,
accidents and fire when working in the
engine compartment, e.g. inspecting
and replenishing oil and other fluids.Absolutely pay attention to the warn-
ing notes - see page 137.

DO-IT-YOURSELF
FusesThe individual electrical circuits are pro-
tected by fuses.
The fuses are located on the left-hand face
end of the instrument cluster below the co-
ver.
Space is provided on the right for spare fu-
ses - see page 168.
Additional fuses are located in the engine
compartment on the battery. We recom-
mend having these fuses replaced by a
Škoda Dealer.Replacing a fuse
Switch off the ignition and the relevant
electrical component.

To remove the cover, place a screwdriver
against the cover (arrow on cover) and ca-
refully lever it off.

Refer to the list of fuses as shown in il-
lustration to find which fuse belongs to the
faulty component - see illustration on page
168.

Remove the blown fuse.

A blown fuse is recognizable from the
melted metal strip - replace with a new fuse
of the same rating.
Notes

If a newly inserted fuse blows again af-
ter a short time, the electrical system should
then be inspected as soon as possible by
a Škoda Dealer.

On no account „repair“ fuses as this may
cause major damage to another point of the
electrical system.

Certain of the electrical components
listed are fitted only to particular model
versions or are optional equipment.

We recommend always carrying with
you a box with replacement fuses, which is
available from Škoda Dealers
1).
1)In certain countries the box with replacement
fuses is part of the basic equipment.
Warning
If the fire extinguisher is not correctly
attached, in case of sudden manoeu-
vres or an accident, it can be thrown
through the interior compartment
and cause injuries.
