WARNING
■ The park assist does not take away the responsibility from the driver when
parking.
■ External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the park assist sys-
tem and parking aid. Under unfavourable conditions, objects or people may
not be recognised. CAUTION
■ If other vehicles are parked behind or on the kerb, the park assist guides your
vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the wheel rims of
your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
■ Under certain circumstances, surfaces or structures of certain objects, such as
wire mesh fences, powder snow etc., cannot be recognised by the system.
■ The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends on the
circumference of the wheels. The system only works correctly if the vehicle is fit-
ted with the wheel size approved by the manufacturer. If wheels other than
those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the resulting position of the
vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be avoided by readjusting
the system at a ŠKODA
specialist garage. Under certain circumstances, the sys-
tem may not function correctly, for example, if the vehicle is fitted with snow
chains or a temporary spare wheel. Note
■ The traction control system (TCS) must always be switched on when parking.
■ Only the front parking aid operates if you are towing a trailer (applies only to ve-
hicles with a factory-fitted towing device). This is why it is not possible to reverse
into a parking space with the help of the park assist system when towing a trailer.
■ If the sensors find a suitable parking space, they store its parameters until an-
other suitable parking space has been found or until a distance of 10
m had been
driven after finding the parking space. This is why it is possible to switch on the
park assist after driving past the parking space and the information on whether
this parking space is suitable for parking appears in the information display. Ð Park assist display on the information display

The search area for the parking space on the driver's side is automatically indica-
ted on the information display.
Activate the turn signal on the driver's side if you wish to park on this side of the
road. In the information display the search area for the parking space is indicated
on the driver's side.
If the button is pressed at a speed greater than 30 km/h and less than 50 km/h,
the message indicating that the speed for detecting the space has been excee-
ded will be shown on the display of the instrument cluster. If the speed drops be-
low 30 km/h, the condition of the park assist system is automatically displayed in
the display of the instrument cluster. When exceeding a speed of 50 km/h, it is
necessary to activate the display again by pressing the button » Fig. 121.Ð

Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Storing a speed 117
Changing a stored speed 117
Switching off the cruise control system temporarily 118
Switching off the cruise control system completely 118
The cruise control system (CCS) maintains a constant speed, more than 30 km/h
(20 mph), once it has been set, without you having to depress the accelerator
pedal. This is only possible within the range which is permitted by the power out-
put and braking power of the engine.
The indicator light illuminates in the instrument cluster when the cruise control
system is activated. £
