•it is necessary to re-code the Service Interval Display if a new instrument cluster
is installed during repair work. This work is carried out by a specialist garage.
•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 Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for resetting the display
with a vehicle system tester.
•Please refer to the brochure Service sc hedule for extensive information about
the service intervals.
Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer)
Introduction
The multi-functional indicator appears in the display of the revolutions counter
⇒ page 11, fig. 2 or in the information display ⇒fig. 6 depending on the equip-
ment 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 equippe d 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 data of the single-trip memo ry (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the
display. A 2 shown in the display means that da ta relates to the total distance
memory (memory 2).
Switching of the memory takes place when the button ⇒page 16, fig. 8 .

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 temper-
ature lies between +5°C and -5°C.
WARNING
Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature
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 styl e of driving to the fuel consumption you
wish to achieve.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the me mory was last erased is shown in the
display in litres/100 km ⇒page 15. This information can help you to adapt your
style of driving to the fuel co nsumption you wish to achieve.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a cert ain period of time
you must first erase the memory at the start of the new measurement using the
button ⇒page 16, fig. 8 . A zero appears in the display for the first 300 m you
drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 30 metres while you are driving.
Note
The amount of fuel consum ed will not be indicated.
Driving time
The driving time which has elapsed since the memory was last erased, appears in
the display ⇒page 15. If you wish to calculate th e driving time from a particular
time of day you must first erase the memory at this moment in time by pressing the
button ⇒page 16, fig. 8 .
The maximum time indicated in both switch positions is 99 hours and 59 minutes.
The indicator is set back to nu ll if this period is exceeded.
