Instruments and Indicator/Warning Lights17
Using the system
Safety
Driving Tips
General Maintenance
Breakdown assistance
Technical Data
In order to avoid any damage to the engine
, please pay attention to the following
notes regarding the temperature ranges:
Cold range
If the pointer is in the left-hand area of the scale it means that the engine has not
yet reached its operating temperature. Avoid running at high engine speeds, at full
throttle and at severe engine loads.
The operating range
The engine has reached its operating temp erature as soon as the pointer moves
into the mid-range of the scale. The pointe r may also move further to the right at
high engine loads and high outside temperat ures. This is not critical provided the
warning symbol
in the instrument cluster does not flash.
If the symbol
in the instrument cluster flashes it means that either the coolant
temperature is too high or the coolant level is too low. Observe the guidelines
⇒ page 30, “Coolant temperature/ Coolant quantity ”.
WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes ⇒page 162, “Working in the engine
compartment” before opening the bonnet and inspecting the coolant level.
Caution
Additional headlights and other attached co mponents in front of the fresh air inlet
impair the cooling efficiency of the coolant. There is then a risk of the engine over-
heating at high outside temperatures and high engine loads!Fuel gaugeThe fuel gauge ⇒page 16, fig. 18 only operates when the ignition is switched
on.
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 55 litres. The warning symbol
in the instru-
ment cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve marking. There are now about 7 litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a reminder for you,
that
you must refuel .
The following will be displayed in the information display*: PLEASE REFUEL
A peep sounds as an additional warning signal.
Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty! An irregular fuel supply can result in
poor ignition or misfiring. Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system and
damage the catalytic converter.SpeedometerWarning against excessive speeds*
An acoustic warning signal will sound when the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilome-
tres per hour. The acoustic warning signal will switch off again when the vehicle
speed goes below this speed limit.
Note
This function is only valid for some countries.

Top up with wash liquid ⇒page 174.
WARNING
•
Properly maintained windscreen wi per blades are essential for clear
visibility and safe driving ⇒page 57, “Replacing wiper blades for the wind-
screen wipers”.
•
Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. Otherwise the window cleaner could
freeze on the windscreen and re strict the view to the front.
•
The rain sensor only operates as a support. The driver is not released
from the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers manu-
ally depending on the visibility conditions.Caution
In frosty weather, please first of all check whether the windscreen wiper blades are
not frozen to the windscreen before switching them on. Switching on windscreen
wipers when the blades are frozen to the windscreen may result in damage both to
the blades and the motor of the windscreen wipers!Headlight cleaning system*After each wash cycle of the windscreen an d if the parking lights, low beam light or
main beam light are switched on, the headlights are also cleaned.

Technical Data
Seat heating of the front seats*You can electrically heat the seat cushions and the backrests of the front
seats when the ignition is switched on.
Front seats
– Heating on the driver's and front pasenger's seat can be switched on
and regulated by turning the control dial ⇒fig. 68 .
– The system is switched off by turning the control dial to the home position “0”.
WARNING
If you have a subdued pain and/or temperature sensitivity, e.g. through
medication, paralysis or because of chronic illness (e.g. diabetes), we
recommend not to use the seat heating. This can lead to burns on the back,
the posterior and the legs which are diff icult to heal. If the seat heating is
used, we recommend to make regular breaks in your journey when driving
long distances, so that in specific cases as mentioned above the body can
recuperate from the stress of the journey. Please consult your doctor, who
can evaluate your specific condition.
Caution
•
You should not kneel on the seats or othe rwise apply pressure at specific points
in order to avoid damaging the heating elements of the seat heaters.
•
Do not clean the seats moist ⇒page 154.Note
•
The seat heating should only be switched on when the engine is running. This
has a significant effect of sa ving on the battery capacity.
•
If the on-board voltage drops, the seat heating is switched off automatically, in
order to provide sufficient electrical energy for the engine control.
PedalsConcerning a secure depressing of the pe dal, you should use only footmats from
the Škoda genuine accessories.
Operation of the pedals must not be hindered!
WARNING
•
Greater pedal distances may be needed when there is a fault in the brake
system.
•
Do not place any footmats or other additional floor coverings in the area
of the pedals in order to ensure that all the pedals can be fully depressed and
are able to return unobstructed to their initial position - risk of accident!
•
There must be no objects on the floor which could roll under the pedals.
You would then no longer be able to apply the brakes, operate the clutch or
accelerator - risk of accident!

68luggage compartmentLoading the luggage compartmentPlease observe the following in the inte rest of having good handling char-
acteristics of your vehicle:
– Distribute the items of luggage as evenly as possible.
– Place heavy objects as far forward as possible.
– Attach the items of luggage to the lashing eyes or the safety net* ⇒page 68.In the event of an accident, there is such a high kinetic energy which is produced by
small and light objects that they can caus e severe injuries. The magnitude of the
kinetic energy depends on the speed at wh ich the vehicle is travelling and on the
weight of the object. The speed at which the vehicle is travelling is in this case the
more significant factor.
Example: In the event of a frontal collision at a speed of 50 km/h, an unsecured
object with a weight of 4.5 kg produces an energy, which corresponds to 20 times
its own weight. This means that it results in a weight of approx. 90 kg. You can
imagine the injuries that can occur, if th is “bullet” is flying through the interior
compartment and hits an occupant.
WARNING
•
Store the objects in the luggage comp artment and attach them to the
lashing eyes.
•
Loose objects in the passenger compartment can be thrown forward
during a sudden manoeuvre or in case of an accident and can injure the
occupants or other oncoming traffic. This risk is still increased, if the objects
which are flying around are hit by a depl oyed airbag. In this case, the objects
which are thrown back can injure the occupants - hazard.
•
Please note that the handling properti es of your vehicle may be affected
when transporting heavy objects as a result of the displacement of the centre of gravity. The speed and style
of driving must be adjusted accord-
ingly.
•
The items carried in the luggage compar tment should be stored in such
a way that no objects are able to slip forward if there are any sudden driving
or braking manoeuvres undertaken - risk of injury!
•
Never drive with the boot lid fully opened or slightly ajar otherwise
exhaust gases may get into the interior of the vehicle - risk of poisoning!
•
On no account exceed the permissible axle loads and the permissible
gross weight of the vehicle - risk of accident!
•
Never transport occupants in the luggage compartment!Caution
Please ensure that the heating elements of the rear window heater are not
damaged as a result of objects sliding in this area.
Note
Tyre pressure must be adjusted to the load ⇒page 175, fig. 161 .Lashing eyes
