tion.
The system operates at speeds of up to 50 km/h.
Start-Off Assistant 1)
Read and observe
and on page 112 first.
The Start-Off assistant assists the driver when setting off, such as on a steep
slope or on a slippery surface. When the driver presses the accelerator, the
maximum engine speed is electronically limited so that a gentle approach is
possible.

The parking aid (hereinafter referred to as system) draws attention via acous-
tic signals or the Infotainment display when manoeuvring around obstacles in
the vicinity of the vehicle.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 110, in section General information .■
Moving persons or objects may not be recognized by the system sensors.
■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the system signals. There is a danger that such ob-
jects or people may not be recognised by the system sensors.
WARNING (Continued)■ External noise sources may affect the signals of the system sensors.
There is a danger that obstacles may not be recognised by the system sen-
sors.■
Before reversing, you should satisfy yourself that there are no small ob-
stacle, such as a rock, thin post etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such
obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
CAUTION
■ Keep the system sensors » Fig. 133 on page 114 clean, snow-and ice-free
and do not cover with any objects of any kind, otherwise the system function-
ing may be impaired.■
In adverse weather conditions (heavy rain, water vapour, very low or high
temperatures, etc.), the functioning of the system may be impaired - “incorrect
recognition of obstacles”.
■
Accessories additionally installed on the vehicle rear, such as bicycle carriers,
can impair the system function.

Park Assist (hereinafter referred to as system) helps drivers park in suitable
parallel and perpendicular parking places or also to manoeuvre out of parallel
parking spaces.
The system takes over the steering movements only when parking or leaving a
parking space. The driver operates the brake, accelerator or clutch pedal and
the shift / selector lever.
The state in which the steering wheel is operated by the system, is referred to
as parking operation.
The Park Assist is an extension of the parking aid » page 114 and operates on
the basis of data collected by the ultrasonic sensors.
For this reason, the chapter on the parking aid is to be read carefully and the safety notes are to be observed.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 110, in section General information .■
During the parking process, the system automatically performs rapid
steering movements. While it is doing so, do not place your hands between
the steering wheel – risk of injury!
■
During a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road. It is therefore recommen-
ded that you do not use the system in such situations.
CAUTION
The correct evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure de-
pends on the circumference of the wheels on the vehicle.■
The system only works correctly if the vehicle is fitted with the wheel size
approved by ŠKODA AUTO.
■
Abstain from using the system when the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or
a temporary spare wheel.
■
If wheels other than those approved by ŠKODA AUTO are fitted, the resulting
position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be avoi-
ded by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
CAUTION
If other vehicles are parked behind or on the curb, the system can drive your
vehicle over the kerb or up to the kerb - there is a risk of damage to the
wheels. If necessary, intervene in good time.
Note
■ We recommend performing the parking at a safe speed to about 5 km/h.■The parking procedure can be stopped at any time by pressing the 
» Fig. 139 on page 119 button or by a steering intervention.
Functioning
Read and observe
and on page 118 first.
The system support is provided in the following manner.▶ While the parking space search is going on, a measurement and evaluation of
the parking space size is completed.
▶ Suitable parking spaces are shown in the display of the instrument cluster
(hereinafter only in the display). 
118Driving

▶The display shows instructions and information before the start and during
the parking.
▶ Based on the calculated road surface, the front wheels will be automatically
rotated during the parking.

are met.
The system is activated.
The vehicle is travelling at less than 40 km/h.
The vehicle is travelling at less than 20 km/h.
The distance to a number of parked vehicles is approximately 0.5-1.5 m.
TCS is activated » page 111.
The system can only carry out the parking procedure if the following basic con- ditions are met.
The vehicle is travelling at less than 7 km/h.
The parking procedure takes less than 6 minutes.
There is no driver intervention in the automatic steering operation.
TCS is activated » page 111.

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.
Tyre pressure monitoring
Fig. 142
Key for storing the pressure val-
ues
The tyre pressure monitoring function (hereinafter referred to as the system)
monitors the tyre pressure while driving.
If the tyre inflation pressure changes, the warning light 
lights up in the in-
strument cluster and an audible signal is heard » page 36, 
Tyre pressure .
The system can only function properly if the tyres have the prescribed inflation
pressure and these pressure values are stored in the system.
Procedure for storing the tyre pressure values
›
Inflate all the tyres to the specified pressure.
›
Switch on the ignition.
›
Press the button 
» Fig. 142 and hold.
The warning light 
lights up in the instrument cluster.
An acoustic signal and the control indicator provide information about the
storage of the tyre pressure values.
›
Release the button 
.
Always save the tyre pressure values in the system if one of the following
events occurs.
▶ Change of tyre inflation pressure.
▶ Change one or more wheels.
▶ Change in position of a wheel on the vehicle.
▶ Illumination of the warning light 
in the instrument cluster.
WARNING■
The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 110, in section General information .■
Having the correct tyre inflation pressure is always the driver's responsi-
bility. Tyre pressure should be checked regularly » page 151.
■
The system cannot warn in case of very rapid tyre inflation pressure loss,
e.g. in case of sudden tyre damage.
■
Before storing the pressures, the tyres must be inflated to the specified
inflation pressure » page 151. If the wrong pressure valuesare stored, the
system may not issue any warnings, even if the tyre pressure is too low.
CAUTION
Save the tyre pressure values every 10,000 km or 1x annually to ensure correct
system functioning.123Assist systems

The maximum trailer nose weight when towing a trailer is 80 kg, for vehicles
with four-wheel drive and the 2.0 l / 103 kW TDI CR or 2.0 l / 110 kW TDI CR
engine, it is 85 kg. Other information (e.g. on the nameplate of the trailer de-
vice) provide only about the test values of the device information.
WARNING■ Check that the tow bar is seated correctly and is secured in the mounting
recess before the start of every journey.■
When the ball rod is not used and properly secured in the receiving shaft,
this could be damaged or incomplete and must not be used -There is a risk
of an accident.
■
Do not modify or adapt the towing device in any way.
■
Keep the mounting recess of the towing equipment clean at all times.
Such dirt prevents the ball head from being attached securely.
