WARNING
If you do not pay attention to the warning lights coming on and the corre-
sponding descriptions and warning notes, this may result in severe body inju-
ries or major vehicle damage.
The engine compartment of your car is a hazardous area. There is a risk of
injuries, scalding, accident s and fire when working in the engine compartment,
e.g. inspecting and replenishing oil and other fluids. It is also essential to
observe all warnings page 216, “Working in the engine compartment”.Note
The arrangement of the indicator lights depends on the model version. The
symbols shown in the following functional description are to be found as indicator
lights in the instrument cluster.
Operational faults are shown in the instrument cluster as red symbols (priority 1 -
danger) or yellow symbols (priority 2 - warning).
Turn signal system
Either the left
or right
indicator light flashes depending on the position of the turn
signal lever.
The indicator light flashes at twice its normal rate if a turn signal light fails.
Switching off the hazard warning light system is switched on will cause all of the turn
signal lights as well as both indicator lights to flash.
Further information about the turn signal system page 66.
Fog lights
The warning light
comes on when the fog lights are operating page 64.
Main beam
The indicator light
comes on when the main beam is selected or also when the
headlight flasher is operated. Further information about the main beam
page 66.
Low beam
The warning light
comes on when low beam is selected page 60.
Rear fog light

The warning light
lights up, when operating the speed regulating system.
Bulb failure
The warning light
comes on if a bulb is faulty:
up to 2 seconds after the ignition is switched on,
when switching on the defective light bulb.
The following text e.g will be displayed in the information display*: Check front right dipped beam!
The rear side lights and the licence plate lighting require several light bulbs. The indi-
cator light
only lights up if all light bulbs of the licence plate lighting or the parking
light (in one rear light unit) are defective. Check regularly the function of the light
bulbs.
Adaptive headlights*
If the warning light
flashes for 1 minute while driving or after switching on the igni-
tion and a warning signal sounds, a fault of the adaptive headlights is confirmed.

Mode motorway
In the mode “motorway” the dispersion of the co ne of light is so widespread, that it illu-
minates also the left (and right)

time to an obstacle or any other danger. The mode is activated stepwise as of a speed
of 90 km/h. It gains its greatest effectiveness at speeds above 120 km/h.
Tourist light
This mode makes it possible to drive in countries with opposing traffic system, driving
on the left/right, without dazzling the oncoming vehicles. When the mode “tourist
light” is active, the above mentioned modes and the side to side swivel of the headlight
is deactivated.

BulbsChanging bulbsThe relevant lamp must always be switch ed off before a light bulb is replaced.
Defect light bulbs should only be replaced with light bulbs of the same type. The desig-
nation is located on the ligh t socket or the glass bulb.
Changing certain bulbs is not something whic h you can do yourself, but requires to be
done by a specialist. Other parts of the vehicle must be removed in order to change the
light bulbs. This applies, in particular, to bulbs which can only be reached from the
engine compartment.
We therefore recommend that you have an y bulbs changed by an authorised Škoda
Service Partner or, in exceptional cases, by calling on other professional assistance.
Please note that the engine compartment is a hazardous area page 216, “Working
in the engine compartment”.
We recommend that you always have a small box of replacement bulbs in your vehicle.
You can purchase replacement bulbs from th e range of the Škoda original accessories 18). A stowage place for the bulbs is located in the box in the spare wheel.

Change of bulbs on vehicles with Xenon lights (low beam lights, parking lights and
main beam lights) should be undertaken by a specialist garage.
