Functioning - Skoda octavia Owner's Manual

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 the parking operation.
Park Assist is an extension of the parking aid
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 120, in chapter 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 a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
■
ice, etc.), you may stray from the calculated road. Therefore, we suggest
that you do not use the system in such situations.
CAUTION
The evaluation of the parking space and the parking procedure depends 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.
Do not use the system when the vehicle is fitted with snow chains or a tem-
■
porary 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 time.
Notice
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
