The warning lights indicate certain functions or faults.
Some warning lights can be accompanied by acoustic signals and messages in the
display of the instrument cluster.
After switching on the ignition, some warning lights illuminate briefly as a func-
tion test.
If the tested systems are OK, the corresponding warning lights go out a few sec-
onds after switching on the ignition.
WARNING■ Ignoring illuminated warning lights and related messages or instructions in
the display of the instrument cluster may lead to serious personal injury or
damage to the vehicle.■
If you have to stop for technical reasons, then park the vehicle at a safe dis-
tance from the traffic, switch off the engine and switch on the hazard warning lights » page 52 . The warning triangle must be set up at the prescribed dis-
tance - observe the national legal provisions when doing so.

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.

Unless otherwise stated, the lights only work when the ignition is switched on.
On models fitted with right-hand steering, the position of some of the controls
differs from that shown in » Fig. 25 on page 47. The symbols which mark the po-
sitions of the controls are identical.
Keep the headlights lenses clean. The following guidelines must be ob-
served » page 191 , Headlight lenses .
WARNING■
The activation of the lights should only be undertaken in accordance with
national legal requirements.■
The driver is always responsible for the correct settings and use of the
lights.
WARNING (Continued)■ The automatic driving lamp control only operates as a support and does
not release the driver from his responsibility to check the light and, if necessa-
ry, to switch on the light depending on the given light conditions. The light
sensor cannot, for example, detect rain or snow. Under these conditions we
recommend switching on the low beam or fog lights!■
Never drive with only the side lights on! The side lights are not bright
enough to light up the road sufficiently in front of you or to be seen by other
oncoming traffic. Therefore always switch on the low beam when it is dark or
if visibility is poor.
Note
■ The headlights may mist up temporarily. When the driving lights are switched
on, the light outlet surfaces are free from mist after a short period, although the headlight lenses may still be misted up in the peripheral areas. This mist has noinfluence on the life of the lighting system.■
If there is a fault in the light switch, the low beam comes on automatically.
