The belt locks and the belts must be in their original position after folding
back the seat cushions and backrests - they must be ready to use.
■
The seat backrests must be securely locked in position so that no objects in
the luggage compartment can slide into the passenger compartment on sud-
den braking – risk of injury.
■
Ensure that the rear seat backrests are properly engaged. Only then can the
seat belt for the middle seat reliably fulfil its function.

WARNING■The transported items on the roof rack must be securely attached – risk of
accident!■
Always secure the load with appropriate and undamaged lashing straps or
tensioning straps.
■
Distribute the load evenly over the roof rack system.
■
When transporting heavy objects or objects which take up a large area on
the roof rack system, the handling of the car may change as a result of the displacement of the centre of gravity. The style of driving and speed musttherefore be adapted to the current circumstances.
■
Avoid abrupt and sudden driving/braking manoeuvres.
■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the visibility, weather, road and traffic
conditions.
■
The permissible roof load, permissible axle loads and permissible total vehi-
cle weight must not be exceeded under any circumstances – risk of accident!
CAUTION
■ Only use roof rack systems approved by ŠKODA AUTO a.s■When dealing with roof racks, the installation instructions supplied with the
roof luggage rack system must be observed.■
On models fitted with a power sliding/tilting roof or a panoramic sliding roof,
ensure that the opened sliding/tilting roof or the panoramic sliding roof does not strike any items of luggage transported on the roof.
■
Ensure that the boot lid does not hit the roof load when opened.
■
The height of the vehicle changes after mounting a roof luggage rack system
and the load that is secured to it. Compare the vehicle height with available clear-
ances, such as underpasses and garage doors.
■
Always remove the roof luggage rack system before entering an automated car
wash.
■
Ensure the roof aerial is not impaired by the secured load.
For the sake of the environment
The increased aerodynamic drag results in a higher fuel consumption.
Attachment points

Roof load
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 96.
The maximum permissible roof load (including roof rack system) of 100 kg and the
maximum permissible total weight of the vehicle should not be exceeded.
The full permissible roof load cannot be used if a roof rack system with a lower
load carrying capacity is used. In this case, the roof rack system must only be loa-
ded up to the maximum weight limit specified in the fitting instructions.

ABC128Using the system

The system only operates if the ignition is switched on.The displays, messages and system instructions are displayed in the MAXI DOTdisplay (in the display only below).
During the parking procedure the system only takes over the steering move-
ments, the pedals continue to be operated by the driver.
When the system is activated, the warning light  lights up
» Fig. 133 on
page 154 - .
The traction control system (TCS) must always be switched on when parking.
Basis of the system function
› The measurement and evaluation of the size of parking spaces when driving.
› The determination of the correct position of the vehicle for parking.
› The calculation of the line on which the vehicle drives backwards into the park-
ing space or forwards from the parking space.
› the automatic turning of the front wheels when parking in, or manoeuvring out
of the parking space.WARNING■ The system does not exempt the driver from his/her responsibility for park-
ing in and manoeuvring out of the parking space.■
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on parking in and ma-
noeuvring out of the parking space. Under adverse conditions, this may cause
objects or people to not be recognised by the system.
■
When parking in, and manoeuvring out of parking spaces, the system auto-
matically executes quick steering movements. While it is doing so, do not place your hands between the steering wheel – risk of injury!
■
When parking or departing from a parking space on loose or slippery surfa-
ces (gravel, snow, ice etc.), there may be deviations due to the conditions of
the calculated road surface. We therefore recommend not using the system in
such situations.
CAUTION
■ If other vehicles are parked behind or on the kerb, the system can guide 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, the surfaces or structures of certain objects such
as wire mesh fences or powder snow cannot be detected by the system.
■ The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depend 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 re-
sulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be
avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
■
Under certain circumstances, the system may not function correctly, for exam-
ple, if the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or a temporary spare wheel.

If your vehicle has already been factory-fitted with a towing device or is fitted
with a towing device from ŠKODA Original Accessories, then it meets all of the
technical requirements and national legal regulations for towing a trailer.
Your vehicle is fitted with a 13-pin power socket for the electrical connection be-
tween the vehicle and trailer. If the trailer that is to be towed has a 7-pin connec-
tor , you can use a suitable adapter from ŠKODA Original Accessories.
The maximum trailer drawbar load is 80 kg.
WARNING■
Check that the tow bar is seated correctly and is secured in the mounting
recess before the start of every journey.■
Do not use the tow bar if it is not correctly inserted and secured in the
mounting recess.
■
Do not use the towing device if it is damaged or if there are parts missing.
■
Do not modify or adapt the towing device in any way.
■
Never release the tow bar while the trailer is still coupled.
CAUTION
Take care when handling the tow bar so as to avoid damaging the paintwork on
the bumper.
