Engine revolutions counter The red zone of the rev counter scale
1
⇒  fig. 2 indicates the range in which the
engine control unit begins to limit the engine speed. The engine control unit re-
stricts the engine speed to a 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 driving time and before the engine has been
warmed up to operating temperature ⇒ page 162

. For the sake of the environment
Shifting to a higher gear in good time helps to reduce the fuel consumption, mini-
mises operating noise levels, protects the environment and contributes to a lon-
ger life and reliability of the engine. 
Speedometer Warning against excessive speeds
An acoustic warning signal will sound when the vehicle speed exceeds 120 kilo-
metres per hour. The acoustic warning signal will switch off again when the vehi-
cle speed goes below this speed limit.4 5

This function is only valid for some countries. 
Coolant temperature gauge The coolant temperature gauge
4 ⇒ fig. 2

operates only when the ignition is
switched on.
Please pay attention to the following guidelines regarding temperature ranges in
order to avoid damage to the engine:
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 guide-
lines ⇒ page 26, Coolant temperature/Coolant quantity . WARNING
Pay attention to the warning notes ⇒ page 190
, Working in the engine com-
partment 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

⇒
 fig. 2 only operates when the ignition is switched on. £ 11
Instruments and warning lights Using the system Safety Driving Tips General Maintenance Breakdown assistance Technical data

The fuel tank has a capacity of about 55 litres or 60 litres
1)
. The warning symbol 
in the instrument cluster lights up when the pointer reaches the reserve marking.
There are now about 10.5 litres of fuel remaining in the tank. This symbol is a re-
minder for you, that you must refuel .
The following is 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 dam-
age the catalytic converter. Note
After filling up, it can occur that during dynamic driving (e.g. numerous curves,
braking, driving downhill and climbing a steep hill) the fuel gauge indicates ap-
prox. 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 driven The distance which you have driven with your vehicle is shown in kilometres (km).
In some countries the measuring unit
“mile” is used.
Reset button
If you hold the reset button 7
⇒
 fig. 2 pressed for about 1 second, the trip counter
is set back to zero.
Trip counter for distance driven
The trip counter indicates the distance which you have driven 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 indicates the total distance in kilometers or miles
which the vehicle has been driven. Fault display
If there is a fault in the instrument cluster
Error will appear continuously in the
display. 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 reminder indicator Fig. 3 Service Interval Display: Note
Depending 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 kilometres are
indicated after switching on the ignition ⇒ fig. 3 . At the same time, a display ap-
pears regarding the remaining days until the next service interval.
The following is displayed in the information display:
Service after ... km or... days. £1)
Valid for Yeti 4x4 12
Instruments and warning lights

The kilometre indicator or the days indicator 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 sec-
onds as soon as the due date for the service is reached.
The following is displayed in the information display: Service now!
Display regarding the distance and days until the following service interval
You can use the button 3 to display the remaining distance driven and the days
until the next service interval ⇒
 fig. 2.
A key symbol  and a display regarding the remaining kilometres 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 an information display, you can call up this
display in the menu Settings ⇒ page 20.
The following will be displayed in the information display for 10 seconds:
Service after ... 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

counter.
On vehicles which are equipped with an information display, you can call up this
display in the menu Settings ⇒ page 20. CAUTION
We recommend that you do not reset the Service Interval Display 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 after 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) is displayed as that for a vehicle with fixed service intervals (QG2).
We therefore recommend having the Service Interval Display reset only by an au-
thorised
ŠKODA Service Partner who is familiar with the procedure for resetting
the display with a vehicle system tester.
● Please refer to the brochure Service schedule for extensive information about
the service intervals. 

fig. 6 on the wind-
screen wiper lever or with the help of the button D on the multifunction steering
wheel ⇒ page 15.
Single-trip memory (memory 1)
The single-trip memory collates the driving information from the moment the igni-
tion is switched on until it is switched off. New data will also flow into the calcula-
tion of the current driving information if the trip is continued within 2 hours after
switching off the ignition. If the trip is interrupted for more than 2 hours, the
memory is automatically erased.
Total-trip memory (memory 2)
The total distance driven memory gathers data from any number of individual
journeys up to a total of 19 hours and 59
minutes driving or 1 999 kilometres driv-
en. 99 hours and 59 minutes driving time or 9 999 km driven in vehicles with an
Information display. The memory is deleted when either of these limits is reached
and the calculation starts from anew.
The total-trip memory will not, contrary to the single-trip memory, be deleted af-
ter a period of interruption of driving of 2 hours. Note
All information in the memory 1 and 2 is erased if the battery of the vehicle is dis-
connected. 

99 hours and 59 minutes in vehicles with an Information display. The indicator is
set back to null if this period is exceeded. 
Current 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.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed.
The indicated value will be updated every 0.5 seconds while you are driving. 
Average fuel consumption The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is shown in the
display in litres/100 km
⇒

 page 14. This information can help you to adapt your
style of driving to the fuel consumption you wish to achieve. If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time you must set the memory to zero at the start of the measurement using the
button
B on the windshield wiper lever
⇒
 fig. 6 or with the handwheel D on the
multifunction steering wheel ⇒ fig. 6 . A zero appears in the display for the first
100 m you drive after erasing the memory.
The indicated value will be updated every 5 seconds while you are driving. Note
The amount of fuel consumed will not be indicated. 
Range The estimated range in kilometres is shown on the display. It indicates the dis-
tance 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 10 km. After lighting up of the indicator light for
the fuel reserve the display 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.
If the memory is set to zero (after disconnecting the battery), the fuel consump-
tion of 10 ltr./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is adapted
accordingly to the style of driving. 
