19Instruments and Indicator Lights
Page 23 of 266
If the indicator light begins to flash while driving, a fault exists in the engine
control. The system allows the vehicle to run in emergency mode.
Seek assistance from a specialist garage immediately.
Engine performance check (petrol engine)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 14.
If the indicator light lights up, there is a fault in the engine control. The system
allows the vehicle to run in emergency mode.
Seek assistance from a specialist garage immediately.
Diesel particulate filter (diesel engine)
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 14.
The diesel particulate filter separates the soot particles from the exhaust. The
soot particles collect in the diesel particulate filter where they are burnt on a reg-
ular basis.
If the indicator light
lights up , soot has accumulated in the filter.
To clean the filter, and where traffic conditions permit »
, drive as follows for at
least 15 minutes or until the indicator light
goes out.
4 or 5 Gear engaged (automatic transmission: position S).
Vehicle speed at least 70 km/h.
Engine speed between 1800-2500 rpm.
If the filter is properly cleaned, the warning icon
goes out .
If the filter is not properly cleaned, the warning light
does not go out and the
warning light
begins to flash.
The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display. Diesel particle filter: Owner's manual!
The system allows the vehicle to run in emergency mode. After switching the ig- nition off and on again the indicator light, the indicator light
also lights up .
Seek assistance from a specialist garage immediately.
WARNING■ The diesel particle filter achieves very high temperatures. Therefore do not
park in areas where the hot filter can come into direct contact with dry grass
or other combustible materials – there is the risk of fire!■
Always adjust your speed to suit weather, road, region and traffic condi-
tions. The recommendations indicated by the indicator light must not tempt
you to disregard the national regulations for road traffic.
CAUTION
■ As long as the indicator light lights up, one must take into account an in-
creased fuel consumption and in certain circumstances a power reduction of the
engine.■
Using diesel fuel with an increased sulphur content can considerably reduce the
life of the diesel particle filter. A ŠKODA partner will be able to tell you which
countries use diesel fuel with a high sulphur content.
Note
■ To assist the combustion process of the soot particles in the filter, we recom-
mend that regularly driving short distances be avoided.■
If the engine is turned off during the filter cleaning process or shortly after-
wards, the cooling fan may turn on automatically for a few minutes.
Fuel reserve
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 14.
The indicator light will come on if the fuel level is less than 10.5 litres.
An audible signal sounds as a warning signal. The following message is shown in the MAXI DOT display.
Please refuel. Range: ... km
Note
The text in the display goes out only after refuelling and driving a short distance.

Driving time
The time travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.
If you want to measure the time travelled from a particular moment in time on, at
this moment, reset the memory by setting the button to zero » page 26, Memory .
The maximum time indicated in both memories is 19 hours and 59 minutes and on vehicles which are fitted with a MAXI DOT display, it is 99 hours and 59 minutes.
The indicator is set back to zero if this period is exceeded.
Current fuel consumption
The current fuel consumption level is displayed in litres/100 km 1)
. You can use this
information to adapt your driving style to the desired fuel consumption.
The display appears in litres/hour if the vehicle is stationary or driving at a low
speed 2)
.
Average fuel consumption
The average fuel consumption since the memory was last erased is displayed in
litres/100 km 1)
.
If you wish to determine the average fuel consumption over a certain period of
time, you must set the memory at the start of the new measurement to zero » page 26 , Memory . After erasing the memory, no value is displayed until you
have driven approx. 300 m.
The display is updated regularly while you are driving.
Range
The range indicates the distance you can still drive with your vehicle based on the level of fuel in the tank and the same style of driving as before.
The display is shown in steps of 10 km. After lighting up of the indicator light
the display is shown in steps of 5 km.
The fuel consumption over the last 50 km is used to calculate the information.The range will increase if you drive in a more economical manner.
If the memory is set to zero (after disconnecting the battery), a fuel consumptionof 10 l./100 km is calculated for the range; afterwards the value is updated ac-
cording to the style of driving.
Distance travelled
The distance travelled since the memory was last erased is displayed.If you want to measure the distance travelled from a particular moment in time
on, at this moment, reset the memory by setting the button to zero » page 26,

Displaying an error
If the warning light in the driver's door initially flashes quickly for around 2 sec-
onds, and then lights up for 30 seconds without interruption before flashing
again slowly, you will need to seek the assistance of a specialist garage.WARNINGIf the car is locked and the safe securing system activated, no people must re-
main in the car as it will then not be possible to either unlock a door or open a
window from the inside. The locked doors make it more difficult for rescuers
to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
Note
■ In the event of an accident in which the airbags are deployed, the locked doors
are automatically unlocked in order to enable rescuers to gain access to the vehi- cle.■
Only the driver's door can be unlocked or locked using the key if the central

Unlocking the vehicle
Locking the vehicle
Unlocking the boot lid
Folding out/folding up of the key bit Warning light
Unlocking
The turn signal lights flash twice as confirmation that the vehicle has been un-
locked.
If you unlock the vehicle and do not open a door or the boot lid within the next
30 seconds, the vehicle will lock again automatically and the safelock system 1)
or
anti-theft alarm system will be switched on. This function is intended to prevent
the car being unlocked unintentionally.
Locking
The turn signal lights flash once as confirmation that the vehicle has been locked.
If the doors or the boot lid remain open after the vehicle has been locked, the
turn signal lights do not flash until they have been closed.
Checking the battery condition
If the red indicator light
B
» Fig. 13 does not flash when you press a button on
the remote control key, the battery is empty. Replace the battery » page 231.
ABWARNINGIf the car is locked from the outside and the safelock system is switched on,
there must not be any person in the car as it is then not possible to open ei-
ther a door or a window from the inside. The locked doors make it more diffi-
cult for rescuers to get into the vehicle in an emergency – risk to life!
CAUTION
■ Only operate the remote control when the doors and boot lid are closed and the
vehicle is in your line of sight.■
If the driver door is open, the vehicle cannot be locked using the remote control
key.
■
The operation of the remote control may temporarily be affected by signal inter-
ference from transmitters close to the car and which operate in the same fre-
quency range.
Note
For vehicles with anti-theft alarm the acoustic signals can also be activated/deac-
tivated by locking/unlocking » page 29.
Synchronising the remote control
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 32.
If the vehicle does not unlock when pressing the remote control, the key may not
be synchronised. This can occur when the buttons on the remote control key are
actuated a number of times outside of the operative range of the equipment or
the battery in the remote control key was replaced.
Synchronise the key as follows.
›
Press any button on the remote control key.
›
Pressing of the button means that the door will unlock with the key within 1 mi-
nute.
