Park Assist

Introduction
Park Assist (following referred to 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 entering 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
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
Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
■
systems » page 208, in section Introduction.
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 parking manoeuvres on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
■
ice, etc.) it is possible to stray from the calculated road. It is therefore rec-
ommended 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 result-
■
ing position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This can be
avoided 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 of up to about 5
■
km/h.
The parking procedure can be stopped at any time by pressing the 

» Fig. 257 on page 224 button or by a steering intervention.
