How you can contribute to a cleaner environment
The fuel consumption of your Škoda - and thus the level of pol-
lutants contained in the exhaust - is also determined by how
you drive.
The noise level and wear and tear are also influenced by how
you personally handle your vehicle. This Owner ´s Manual tells
you how to drive your Škoda to achieve the minimum impact
on the environment, and how to save money at the same time.
Look up „Environment“ in the Index to find out more.
Please also refer to all the texts identified with a C
in this
Owner ´s Manual.
Make your contribution - for the sake of the environ-
ment.

Layout of this Owner' s Manual (explanations)
The Owner's Manual has been systematically designed, in order to make
it easy for you to find and absorb the information you require.
Chapters, table of contents and subject index
The text of the manual are divided into relatively short sections which are
combined into easy-to-read chapters. The chapter you are reading at any
particular moment is highlighted at the bottom right of the page.
The Table of contents is arranged according to the chapters and the
detailed Subject index at the end of the Owner's Manual helps you to
rapidly find the information you are looking for.
Sections
The majority of Sections apply to all models.
Since there is a wide range of different equipment and options available it
is clearly unavoidable, despite dividing the contents into sections, that
mention may be made of equipment which is not fitted to your vehicle.
Equipment which is marked * is only standard on certain vehicle model
versions or only suppliable as optional equipment for certain models.
Brief information and instructions
Each section has a Heading.
This is followed by Brief information (in large italic lettering), which tells
you the subject which is dealt with in this section.
Most of the illustrations are accompanied by an Instruction (in relatively
large letters) which explains to you in a straightforward way the action you
have to take. Work steps which have to be carried out are illustrated with
a hyphen.
Notes
All four kinds of notes, which are used in the text, are always stated at the
end of the respective section.
WARNING
The most important notes are marked with the heading Warning.
These Warning notes draw your attention to a serious risk of acci-
dent or injury. While reading the text you will frequently encounter
a double arrow followed by a small warning symbol. This symbol is
intended to draw your attention to a Warning note at the end of the
section to which you must pay careful attention.
Caution
A Caution note draws your attention to the possibility of damage to your
vehicle (e.g. damage to gearbox), or points out general risks of an acci-
dent.
For the sake of the environment
An Environmental note draws your attention to environmental protection
aspects. This is where you will, for example, find tips aimed at reducing
your fuel consumption.
Note
A normal Note draws your attention in a general way to important informa-
tion.
Direction indications
All direction indications such as “left”, “right”, “front”, “rear” relate to the
direction of travel of the vehicle.

Engine revolutions counter
The start of the red zone in the revolutions counter ⇒page 13, fig. 2
indicates the maximum permissible engine speed for all gears for an
engine which has been run in and operating at a normal temperature. You
should shift into the next higher gear before this red zone is reached, or
move the selector lever into position D if your car is fitted with an automatic
gearbox.
One should shift to the next lower gear at the latest when the engine is no
longer running “smoothly”.
Avoid high engine speeds during the running-in period ⇒page 192.
Caution
The needle of the revolutions counter must on no account move into the
red zone of the scale - risk of engine damage!
For the sake of the environment
Shifting up early helps you save fuel and reduce the operating noise of
your vehicle.
Coolant temperature gauge
The coolant temperature gauge ⇒page 13, fig. 2 operates only when
the ignition is switched on.
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 temperature as soon as the pointer
moves into the mid-range of the scale. The pointer may also move further
to the right at high engine loads and high outside temperatures. 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. Please
refer to the guidelines ⇒page 32, “Coolant temperature, Coolant quantity
”.
WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes ⇒page 219, “Working in the
engine compartment” before opening the bonnet and inspecting
the coolant level.
Caution
Additional headlights and other attached components in front of the fresh
air inlet impair the cooling efficiency of the coolant. There is then a risk of
the engine overheating at high outside temperatures and high engine
loads!

Fuel gauge
The fuel gauge ⇒page 13, fig. 2 only operates when the ignition is
switched on.
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

Multi-functional indicator (onboard
computer)
Introduction
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display of the revolutions
counter ⇒page 13, fig. 2 or in the information display ⇒fig. 6 depending
on the equipment fitted to your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers you a range of useful information.
Note
In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of
measures.
Memory
The multi-functional indicator is equipped with two automatic memories.
You can see the memory which is currently being shown in the display
from the negatively displayed number ⇒fig. 7 .

The following readouts of the selected memory will be set to zero by
button :
•average fuel consumption,
•distance driven,
•average speed,
•driving time.
You can only operate the multi-functional indicator when the ignition is
switched on. After the ignition is switched on, the function displayed is the
one which you last selected before switching off the ignition.
The outside temperature indicator will appear with a snowflake symbol
and a warning signal sounds* when the outside temperature lies between
+5°C and -5°C. The symbol warns the driver of the possible danger of ice
on the road. After the rocker switch is pressed, the function displays
the one which you last selected before switching off the ignition.
Outside temperature
The outside temperature appears in the display when the ignition is
switched on.
The correct outside temperature will be indicated with a delay of 5
minutes. If the vehicle is stationary (or driven at a very low speed) the
temperature indicated may be slightly higher than the actual outside
temperature because of heat radiated by the engine.
The outside temperature indicator will appear with a snowflake symbol
(warning signal for ice on the road) and a warning signal sounds* when
the outside temperature lies between +5°C and -5°C.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temper-
ature display that there is no ice on the road. Please note that black
ice may also be present on the road surface even at temperatures
around +5°C - warning, drive with care!
Note
The outside temperature is not indicating when showing navigation data
(guidance to the destination). It must be called up over the menu (valid for
vehicles which have a navigation and information display).
Range
The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the
distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the present level of
fuel in the tank for the same style of driving. The readout is shown in steps
of 5 km.
The fuel consumption for the last 50 km is taken as a basis for calculating
the range. If you drive in a more economical manner from this moment on,
the range will be increased accordingly.
You first drive 50 km if the readout is reset (after disconnecting the battery)
before a new readout for the range is displayed.
Fuel - present consumption
The current fuel consumption level is shown in the display in litres/100 km.
This information can help you to adapt your style of driving to the fuel
consumption you wish to achieve.
