Memory 12
Operation 13
Multifunction display details 13
Warning against excessive speeds 15
The multifunction display can only be operated 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 multifunction display appears in the display » Fig. 5
on page 12 or in the in-
formation display » page 15.
On vehicles with an information display, there is an option to fade out some of
the information. ä WARNING
■ Concentrate fully at all times on your driving! As the driver you are fully re-
sponsible for the operation of your vehicle.
■ Do not only rely upon the information given on the outside temperature dis-
play that there is no ice on the road. Even at temperatures around +4 °C, black
ice may still be on the road surface – warning, drive with care! CAUTION
Pull out the ignition key if coming in contact with the display (e.g. when cleaning)
to prevent any possible damage. Note
■ In certain national versions the displays appear in the Imperial system of meas-
ures. ■ If the display of the second speed is activated in mph, the current speed is not
indicated in km/h on the display. Ð Memory

Multifunction display
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 12.
The multifunction display is equipped with two automatic memories. The selected
memory is shown in the Display » Fig. 5.
The data of the single-trip memory (memory 1) is shown if a 1 appears in the dis-
play. A 2 shown in the display means that data relates to the total distance mem-
ory (memory

Electric boot lid

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Preliminary information 38
Description of the operation 39
Audible signals 39
Adjusting the top position of the lid 40
Operational problems 40
Ð Preliminary information
Fig. 21
Operation of the lid Fig. 22
Operation of the lid: Button on the centre console/designation of
the areas First read and observe the introductory information given on page
38. If the electrical opening of the lid was triggered using the button on the remote
control key or the button on the centre console, an intermittent audible signal
sounds while the lid is moving.
The electric boot lid is fitted with a force limiter. If the lid hits an obstacle when
closing, it stops and an audible signal sounds. If you rapidly enter the vehicle dur-
ing the opening or closing process of the boot lid, the whole vehicle may jerk and
as a result the movement of the lid can be interrupted. The force limiter is activa-
ted.
Manually opening and closing the boot lid is only possible in exceptional cases,
and must be completed slowly and without sudden movements as close to the
centre of the lid as possible. Handling the sides of the lid can damage the electric
lid.
CAUTION
■ In a critical situation, the movement of the lid can be stopped by applying an
abrupt and quick force against the lid.
■ Before opening or closing the lid, check if there are any objects in the opening
or closing range which could obstruct the movement (e.g. a load on the roof lug-
gage rack or on the trailer, etc.) - risk of causing damage to the lid!
■ Ensure that there is at least 10 cm of clearance above the opened boot lid (e.g.
distance from the garage ceiling). Otherwise, it may happen that the clearance
above the opened lid is no longer sufficient after relieving the vehicle of a load
(e.g. after unloading) - risk of causing damage to the lid. ■ Do not try to manually close the lid during the electric closing process. Damage
can occur to the system of the electric boot lid.
■ If the lid is closed manually, it must be ensured that when moving the lid into
the lock, pressure is applied to the centre edge of the lid above the ŠKODA logo. Note
■ In certain circumstances, if the lid is loaded (e.g by a thick layer of snow), the
opening process of the lid can be interrupted. The lid must be protected to ensure
its electrical functionality. ■ If necessary, we recommend that you ask a ŠKODA Service Partner. Ð

Description of the operation
First read and observe the introductory information given on page 38.When operating the lid, the system distinguishes 3 areas » Fig. 22 on page 38
where the function of the individual operating elements changes. The end posi-
tions of the lid - fully closed in the secured lock and fully opened - differ as well.

battery of the vehicle - risk of battery draining!
■ Only use matching plugs to avoid damaging the 12-volt power socket.
■ Only use accessories that have been tested for electromagnetic compatibility in
accordance with the applicable directives.
■ Before turning the ignition on or off, and before starting the car, switch off the
device connected to the 12-volt power socket to prevent any damage caused by
voltage fluctuations.
■ Observe the operating instructions for the connected devices! Note

down when driving (when accelerating or cornering) and may distract you
from concentrating on the traffic - risk of accident!
■ When driving, ensure that no objects from the centre console or from other
storage compartments can get into the driver's footwell. You would then no
longer be able to apply the brakes, operate the clutch or accelerator - risk of

Storage compartment: Using
cooling system
› Open the air supply by pulling the lever in the direction of the arrow
» Fig. 88.
› The air supply is closed by pressing the lever.
Opening the air supply when the air conditioning system is switched on allows
cooled air to flow into the storage compartment.
Opening the air inlet when the air conditioning system is on causes fresh or inte-
rior air to flow into the storage compartment.
