Technical Data
Odometer
The odometer indicates the total distance in
kilometres or miles which the vehicle has
been driven.
Fa u l t d i s p l a y
If there is a fault in the instrument cluster Error will appear in the display. Contact a
specialist garage.
WARNING
Never seek to adjust the trip counter for distance driven while driving for safety
reasons!
Note
If the display of the second speed is acti vated in mph or km/h, this speed is shown
instead of the odometer on the display.Service Interval DisplayService Interval Display
Before the next service interval a key symbol

and the remaining kilometres are
indicated after switching on the ignition  fig. 16. At the same time, a display appears
regarding the remaining days until the next service interval.
The kilometre indicator or the days indicator reduces in steps of 100 km. or days until
the service due date is reached. A flashing key symbol

and the text
Service appears in the display for 20 seconds
as soon as the due date for the service is reached.
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 disp lay 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.
This can be reset as follows: Press the button page 15, fig. 15 and keep it pressed
down, start the ignition, release the butt on and turn it to the left or right.Caution
We recommend you ask a specialist garage to reset the service interval display. Incor-
rectly setting the service interval display can cause problems to the vehicle.
Note

Never reset the display between service intervals otherwise this may result in
incorrect readouts.

information is retained in the Service Inte rval Display also after the battery of the
vehicle is disconnected.

The service interval display will need to be re-configured if the instrument cluster
is replaced. Contact a specialist garage. 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.
