2015 SKODA RAPID SPACEBACK infotainment

Automatic Braking
If the driver fails to respond to the acute warning, the system starts to apply
the brakes automatically with increasing stopping power in several stages.
Brake assist
If the driver brakes inadequate with an impending collision, the system auto-
matically increases braking force.
The braking assistance only occurs as long as the brake pedal is being firmly
pressed down.
Note
■ If an automatic brake intervention is triggered by the system, the pressure in
the brake system increases and the brake pedal cannot be operated with the
normal pedal stroke.■
The automatic braking interventions can be cancelled by pressing the accel-
erator pedal or by steering intervention.

Information messages
119
The fatigue detection system (hereinafter referred to as the system) recom-
mends the driver takes a break from driving when driver fatigue can be detec-
ted due to the driver's steering behaviour.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 109, in section Introduction .■
For the driving ability is always the driver's responsibility. Never drive if
you feel tired.
■
The system may not detect all cases where a break is needed.
■
Therefore, take regular, sufficient breaks during long trips.
■
There will be no system warning during the so-called micro-sleep.
Note
■ In some situations, the system may evaluate the driving incorrectly and thus
mistakenly recommend a break (e.g. sporty driving, adverse weather condi-
tions or poor road conditions).■
The system is designed primarily for use on motorways.
Function
Read and observe
on page 119 first.
From the start of the journey, the system evaluates steering behaviour. If,
while driving, there have been changes in the steering behaviours that are
evaluated by the system as indicating possible fatigue, a break recommenda-
tion is issued.
The system evaluates steering behaviour and recommends a break at speeds
of 65 - 200 km/h.
The system detects a break from driving when one of the following condi-
tions is met.
▶ The vehicle is stopped and the ignition switched off.
▶ The vehicle is stopped, the seat belt removed and the driver's door opened.
▶ The vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes.
If none of these conditions are met or if the driving style is not changed, the
system recommends a driving break again after 15 minutes.
The system can be activated or deactivated in the Infotainment » Owner´s
Manual Infotainment , chapter CAR - vehicle settings .

119Assist systems

The tyre pressure monitoring function (hereinafter referred to as the system)
monitors the tyre pressure while driving.
When changing the tyre inflation pressure, the warning light illuminates 
in
the instrument cluster and an audible signal is heard.
Information on the procedure for the notification of change of tyre inflation pressure » page 34 .
The system can only function properly if the tyres have the prescribed inflation
pressure and this pressure values are stored in the system.WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 109, in section Introduction .■
Having the correct tyre inflation pressure is always the driver's responsi-
bility. Tyre pressure should be checked regularly » page 155.
■
The system cannot warn in case of very rapid tyre inflation pressure loss,
e.g. in case of sudden tyre damage.
Save tyre pressure values
Read and observe
on page 120 first.
The tyre pressure values are always stored in the system, if one of the follow-
ing events occurs.
▶ Change of tyre inflation pressure.
▶ Change one or more wheels.
▶ Change in position of a wheel on the vehicle.
▶ The warning light in the instrument cluster.
The storage of the tyre pressure values depends on equipment, either in the
infotainment or by pressing a button.
WARNINGBefore storing the pressures, the tyres must be inflated to the specified in-
flation pressure » page 155. When storing incorrect pressure values, the
system could possibly not issue any warnings, even with a too low tyre
pressure.
CAUTION
The tyre pressure values are to be saved every 10,000 km or once annually to
ensure correct system functioning.Save tyre pressure values and infotainment displayFig. 135

Tyre labelRead and observe
on page 154 first.
Only use radial tyres of the same type, size (rolling circumference) and treadpattern on one axle on all four wheels.
When mounting new tyres the tyres have to be replaced axle by axle.

Winter operation
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Winter tyres
158
Snow chains
159
Do not use alloy rims with bevelled or polished surfaces during the winter. The
rim surface does not have sufficient corrosion protection and could be perma-
nently damaged (e.g. through grit).
Winter tyres
The handling of your vehicle will be significantly improved when driving on
wintry roads if you fit winter tyres (labelled M+S).
To get best possible handling, winter tyres must be fitted to all four wheels. The minimum tread depth must be 4 mm.
Fit the summer tyres on again in good time as they provide better handling
properties, a shorter braking distance, less tyre noise, and reduced tyre wear
on roads which are free of snow and ice as well as at temperatures above 7 °C.
Speed symbol
Winter tyres (marked with M+S and a peak/snowflake symbol
) of a lower
speed category can be used provided that the permissible maximum speed of
these tyres is not exceeded even if the possible maximum speed of the vehicle
is higher.
On vehicles with the infotainment system with key the speed limit can be
set for winter tyres » Owner´s Manual Infotainment , chapter CAR - Adjust ve-
hicle systems .
For other vehicles with the MAXI DOT display there is the possibility to have
the speed limit set for winter tyres in a specialist workshop.

Maximum permissible rear axle load
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
The vehicle identification number - VIN (vehicle body number) is stamped into
the engine compartment on the right hand suspension strut dome. This num-
ber is also located on a sign on the lower left hand edge below the windscreen
(together with a VIN bar code), and on the type plate.
The VIN number can also be displayed in the Infotainment » Owner´s Manual
Infotainment , chapter CAR - vehicle settings .
Engine number
The engine number (three-digit identifier and serial number) is stamped on the
engine block.
Supplementary Information (applies to Russia)
The full type approval number of the means of transport is indicated in the
registration documents, field 17.
Maximum permissible towed weight
The listed maximum allowable trailer weight is only valid for altitudes up to
1000 m above sea level.
The engine output falls as altitude increases, as does the vehicle's climbing
power. Therefore, for every additional 1,000 m in height (or part), the maximum
permissible towed weight must be reduced by 10%.
The towed weight is made up of the actual weights of the loaded towing vehi-
cle and the loaded trailer.WARNINGDo not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights – risk of acci-
dent and damage!
Operating weight
The value represents the lightest possible vehicle weight without any addi-
tional equipment that would add to the weight, e.g. air conditioning, spare
wheel.
The specified operating weight is for orientation purposes only.
The operating weight also contains the weight of the driver (75 kg), the weight
of the operating fluids, the tool kit, and a fuel tank filled to 90 % capacity.

Note
If required, you can find out the precise weight of your vehicle at a specialist
garage.
Payload
It is possible to calculate the approximate maximum payload from the differ-
ence between the permissible total weight and the operating weight.
The payload consists of the following weights.
▶ The weight of the passengers.
▶ The weight of all items of luggage and other loads.
▶ The weight of the roof, including the roof rack system.
▶ The weight of the equipment that is excluded from the operating weight.
▶ Trailer draw-bar load when towing a trailer (max. 50 kg).
Measurement of fuel consumption and CO
2 emissions according to
ECE Regulations and EU Directives
The data on fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions were not available at the
time of going to press.
The data on fuel consumption and CO 2 emissions are given on the ŠKODA
websites or in the sales and technical vehicle documentation.
The measurement of the intra-urban cycle begins with a cold start of the en-
gine. Afterwards urban driving is simulated. 
