Engine revolutions counterThe red zone of the rev counter scale
⇒page 17, fig. 17
indicates the range in
which the engine control unit begins to li
mit the engine speed. The engine control
unit restricts the engine speed to the steady limit value. Shift into the next higher gear or select
the selector lever position D of the auto-
matic gearbox before reaching the red zone of the rev counter scale. Avoid high engine speeds during the driv
ing time and before the engine has been
warmed up to operating temperature
⇒page 201.
For the sake of the environment
Shifting up early helps you save fuel and reduce the operating noise of your vehicle.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 ag
ain when the vehicle
speed goes below this speed limit.
Note
This function is only valid for some countries.Coolant temperature gaugeThe coolant temperature gauge
⇒page 17, fig. 17
operates only when the igni-
tion is switched on. In order to avoid any damage to the engine
, please pay attentio
n 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. Avoi
d 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 pointe
r may also move further to the right at
high engine loads and high outside temper
atures. 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 38, “Coolant temperature/ Coolant quantity
”.
WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes
⇒page 223, “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 17, fig. 17
only operates when th
e ignition is switched
on. The fuel tank has a capacity of about 60 litres. The warning symbol
in the instru-
ment cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve marking. There are now about 9 litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a reminder for you,
that
you must refuel
.

Technical Data
The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Please refuel!
An audible signal sounds as an additional warning signal.
Caution
Never run the fuel tank completely empty!
An irregular supply of fuel can lead to
irregular engine running.
Unburnt fuel may get into the exhaust system and
damage the catalytic converter.
Note
After filling up, it can occur that during
dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a st
eep hill) the fuel ga
uge indicates approx.
a fraction less. When stopping or during
less dynamic driving, the correct fuel
supply quantity is
indicated. This effect is not a fault.
Counter for distance drivenThe distance which you have
driven with your vehicle is
shown in kilometres (km).
In some countries the measur
ing unit “mile” is used.
Reset button If you hold the reset button
⇒page 17 pressed for about 1 second, the trip
counter is set back to zero. Trip counter for distance driven The trip counter indicates the di
stance which you have driven
⇒fig. 18
since this
counter was last reset - in steps of 100 metres or 1/10 of a mile. Counter for distance driven The counter for distance driven
⇒fig. 18
indicates the total distance in kilometers
or miles which the vehicle has driven. Fau lt dis pla y If there is a fault in the instrument cluster,
a constant text will appear in the display
Error
. Have the fault rectified as soon as
possible by a specialist workshop.
WARNING
Never seek to adjust the trip counter for distance driven while driving for safety reasons!
Note
If vehicles which are fitted with the information display* the display of the second speed is activated in mph or km/h, this driving speed is indicated instead of the counter for the total distance driven.

Service Interval DisplayDepending on the equipment installed in the vehicle, the text can differ on the display. Service Interval Display Before the next service interval a key symbol
and the remaining kilometers are
indicated after switching on the ignition
⇒fig. 19
. At the same time, a display
appears regarding the remaining days until the next service interval. The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Service in ... km or... days
The kilometre indicator or the days indica
tor 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. The following will be displayed in the information display*:
Service now!
Display regarding the distance and days
until the following service interval
You can use the button to display the re
maining distance driven and the days
until the next service interval
⇒page 17.
A key symbol
and a display regarding the remaining kilometers appear for 10
second in the display. At the same time, a display appears regarding the remaining days until the next service interval. On vehicles which are equipped with in

Info
The following will be displayed in the information display* for 10 seconds:
Service in ... km or... days
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 display 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. Reset the service interval displays by using the reset button
⇒page 17 on the
trip counter. On vehicles which are equipped with in
formation display*, you can call up this
information in the following menu on

Caution
We recommend that you do not reset the
Service Interval Disp
lay yourself other-
wise 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.•
If the instrument cluster is exchanged af
ter a repair, the correct values must be
entered in the counter for the Service Interval Display. This work is carried out by a specialist garage.•
The data displayed is the same after resetting the display with flexible service
intervals (QG1) using the reset button as that for a vehicle with fixed service inter- vals (QG2). We therefore recommend having
the Service Interval Display reset only
by an authorised Škoda Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for reset-ting the display with a vehicle system tester.•
Please refer to the brochure Service sc
hedule for extensive information about
the service intervals.Digital clockThe time is set with the buttons and
⇒page 17, fig. 17
.
Select the display which you wish to chan
ge with the button and carry out the
change with the button . On vehicles which are fitted out with the information display*, it is possible to set the time in the menu
Time
⇒page 30.
WARNING
The clock should not be adjusted while driving for safety reasons but only when the vehicle is stationary!Multi-functional indicator (onboard computer)*IntroductionThe multi-functional indicator appears in the display
⇒page 22, fig. 20
or in the
information display
⇒page 26 depending on the equipment fitted to your vehicle.
The multi-functional indicator offers
you a range of useful information.
On vehicles which are fitted out with inform
ation display*, it is possible to switch
off the display of some information.
Caution
Pull out the ignition key while having contact with the display (for example when cleaning) in order to
prevent any damage.
