Instruments and Indicator/Warning Lights15
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
The fuel tank has a capacity of about 62 litres. The warning symbol
in
the instrument cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve
marking. There are now about 8 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.
Digital clock
You can set the time with the reset button at the bottom right next
to the rev counter.
Setting clock
– Turn the reset button to the left.
Setting minutes
– Turn the reset button to the right.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons
but only when the vehicle is stationary!

Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
Depending on the equipment installed in the vehicle, the information
appears in the display of the counter for distance driven or in the informa-
tion display
⇒page 16, fig. 5 .
Service Interval Display
If the due date for the service is reached, the following text appears after
switching on the ignition:
in the display of the trip counter Service 1 500 km
in information display
SERVICE in 1500 km
Prior to the due date for the service the kilometer readout decreases in
steps of 100 km. As soon as the due date for the service is reached, the
following text appears:
in the display of the trip counter Service
in information display Service now
The display disappears within 20 seconds after starting the engine. The
trip counter is also displayed after pressing the reset button of the trip
counter (for more than 1 second).
Resetting Service Interval Display
We recommend having this resetting performed by a Škoda Dealer.
Škoda dealer:
•resets the memory of the display after the appropriate inspection;
•makes an entry in the Service Schedule;
•affix the sticker to the side of the dash panel on the driver's side, where
the following service interval is entered. It is also possible for you to reset the Service Interval Display with the
reset button
⇒page 16, fig. 5 as follows (does not apply to models
with fixed service intervals - QG2).
•Switch off the ignition (if not already off), press the reset button and
hold it down.
•Switch the ignition on and release the reset button . The text
Service or Service now appears in the display.
•Turn the button for resetting the clock to the right - the display is
reset.
Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the Service Interval Display yourself
otherwise this can result in the service interval display being incorrectly
set, which may also result in problems with operation of your vehicle.
Note
•Never reset the display between service intervals otherwise this may
result in incorrect readouts.
•information is retained in the Service Interval Display also after the
battery of the vehicle is disconnected.
•it is necessary to re-code the Service Interval Display if a new instru-
ment cluster is installed during repair work. This work is carried out by a
Škoda dealer.
•After resetting the display with flexible service intervals (QG1) using
the reset button , the data displayed are the same as for a car with fixed
service intervals (QG2). We therefore recommend having the Service
Interval Display reset only by a Škoda dealer 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.

Instruments and Indicator/Warning Lights25
Using the systemSafetyDriving TipsGeneral MaintenanceBreakdown assistanceTechnical Data
The red symbols indicate
danger (priority 1) while the yellow symbols indi-
cate a warning (priortity 2). Information for the driver may also appear in
addition to the symbols ⇒page 28.
Investigate the displayed faults as soon as possible. If several operational
faults exist at the same time, the symbols will appear one after the other
and are each visible for about 2 seconds.
The error messages are faded out after 10 seconds or by actuating the
rocker switch ⇒page 23, fig. 11 and are stored under the information
CAR STATUS .
There is at least one error message to be read when the term CAR
STATUS is flashing in the main menu. The display will show STATUS 1/2
(for example) if a number of error messages are present. This display indi-
cates that the first of a total of two error messages should be displayed.
Actuate the rocker switch , to call up the individual error messages.
If a fault occurs, a warning signal will also sound in addition to the symbol
and text in the display:
•Priority 1 - three warning signals
•Priority 2 - one warning signal
Operational check of the automatic gearbox
When the ignition is switched on, the Auto Check Control automatically
carries out an operational check. The following text will appear first if the
selector lever is the position P or N:
"APPLY FOOT BRAKE WHEN SELECTING GEAR WITH VEHICLE
STATIONARY." (Apply foot brake when selecting a gear while the
vehicle is stationary).
You must depress the brake pedal first and press the Shiftlock button if
you wish to move the selector lever out of these positions. The text will disappear once you select a drive position (
R, D etc.), and the
Auto Check Control function is displayed.
If the Auto Check Control detects faults, these will be displayed about 15
seconds after starting the engine in place of the text shown above. A
warning signal sounds at the same time.
Red symbols
A red symbol signals danger.
Proceed as follows if a red symbol is displayed:
– Stop the vehicle.
– Switch the engine off.
– Investigate the function indicated.

Electronic Stability Programme (ESP)*
The warning light comes on for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on.
Components of the ESP system also include the Traction Control System
(TCS), Electronic Differential Lock (EDL), the Antilock Brake System ABS
and the braking assistant
The warning light comes on when driving when a control cycle is acti-
vated. The warning light will come on and remains on if the ESP is switched off
or if there is a fault in the system.
The fact that the ESP system operates together with the ABS means that
the ESP warning light will also come on if the ABS system is not operating
properly.
Further information on the ESP
⇒page 175, “Electronic stability
programme (ESP)*”.
Traction Control System (TCS)*
The warning light comes on for a few seconds when the ignition is
switched on.
The warning light comes on when driving when a control cycle is acti-
vated.
The warning light will come on and remains on if the TCS is switched off
or if there is a fault in the system.
