User manual for ŠKODA Enyaq iV

Car control

1.1. Start and activation of the vehicle prior to driving and acceleration
The car is started by activating the electric motor:
1) Press the brake pedal (left pedal).
2) Push the Start/Stop button next to the gear lever.
3) Move the gear lever to D = Drive.
4) Release the brake pedal, slowly press the accelerator pedal.
The vehicle has a very high torque, so it is different from a combustion vehicle when accelerating,
the vehicle is more quick and aggressive.
1.2. Driving the car
The electric car has only one gear so you don't shift during the drive. It operates just as an
automatic gearbox.
The gear lever is moved always when the vehicle is stationary and the brake pedal is pressed and
the driver selects one of the following:
R = REVERSE (reversing the vehicle backwards, or "reverse")
N = NEUTRAL (motor disconnected, the vehicle is gliding)
D = DRIVE (driving forward)
B = BRAKE (the strongest level of recuperation, the vehicle is braking intensively using the engine)
1.3. Parking (end of the ride)
At the end of the ride, after stopping the car, press the brake pedal and push the electronic
parking brake button "P".

1.4. Recuperation

Recuperation = recovery of electric power back into vehicle's battery via vehicle's electric engine.
Recuperation is also activated when the brake pedal is pressed - thus the response of the
brake pedal and vehicle braking are different from those of internal combustion engines. We
recommend testing the brake pedal response before the first ride.
1.5. Range indicator – gradual battery discharge while driving
▪ The range indicator is visible on the dashboard, indicating values in kilometers
▪ Range is constantly recalculated to take into account the current energy consumption
while driving
▪ In addition to the range indicator, there is also an indicator of the amount of energy in
the battery, which decreases as it gradually discharges
▪ When the range decreases to 50 km, the vehicle emits a warning signal to alert the
driver, please start looking for a recharging source immediately
▪ When the vehicle's battery capacity decreases to the reserve level (usually the last
10–20 km interval)
When the battery is depleted, the vehicle stops and remains immobile (vehicle range
▪
indicator 0 km)
▪ Keep an eye on the vehicle range indicator and always carefully plan whether the
destination is reachable with the given vehicle range
