Cruise Control System (Ccs) - Skoda Roomster Owner's Manual

Activating/deactivating the parking aid
The parking aid is activated automatically when reverse gear is engaged and the
ignition is turned on. This is confirmed by a brief audible signal.
The parking aid is deactivated by removing the reverse gear.
WARNING
The parking aid is not a substitute for the driver paying proper attention and
■
it is always the driver's responsibility to take care when reversing the vehicle
or carrying out similar manoeuvres. Pay particular attention to small children
and animals as they are not recognised by the parking aid sensors.
Before reversing or parking, check that there is no small obstacle, such as a
■
rock, thin post, trailer drawbar etc., in front of or behind the vehicle. Such ob-
stacles may not be recognised by the parking aid sensors.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of cloth-
■
ing cannot reflect the signals from the parking aid. Thus, these objects or peo-
ple who wear such clothing are not recognised by the parking aid sensors.
External sound sources can have a detrimental effect on the parking aid.
■
Under unfavourable conditions, objects or people may not be recognised.
Note
If a warning signal sounds for about 3 seconds after activating the system and
■
there is no obstacle close to your car, this indicates a system fault. Have the fault
rectified by a ŠKODA specialist garage.
The sensors must be kept clean (free of ice, etc.) to enable the parking aid to
■
operate properly.
If the parking aid is activated and the selector lever of the automatic gearbox is
■
in the position P, the warning signal is interrupted (the vehicle cannot move).

Cruise control system (CCS)

ä
Introduction
This chapter contains information on the following subjects:
Storing a speed
Changing a stored speed
Switching off the cruise control system temporarily
Switching off the cruise control system completely
The cruise control system (CCS) maintains a constant speed, more than 30 km/h,
once it has been set, without you having to depress the accelerator pedal. This is
only possible within the range which is permitted by the power output and brak-
ing power of the engine.
The warning light illuminates in the instrument cluster when the cruise control

system is activated.
WARNING
For safety reasons, the cruise control system must not be used in dense
■
traffic or on unfavourable road surfaces (such as icy roads, slippery roads,
loose gravel) - risk of accident!
The saved speed may only be resumed if it is not too high for the current
■
traffic conditions.
Always switch off the cruise control system after use to prevent uninten-
■
tional use of the system.
CAUTION
Always depress the clutch pedal if switching to the neutral position (vehicle
■
with a manual gearbox) when the cruise control system is switched on! Otherwise
the engine can rev up unintentionally.
The cruise control system is not able to maintain a constant speed when driving
■
in areas with steeper gradients. The weight of the vehicle increases the speed at
which it travels. Therefore, shift to a lower gear in good time or slow the vehicle
down by applying the foot brake.
Note
Ð
It is not possible on vehicles fitted with an automatic gearbox to switch on the
cruise control system if the selector lever is in the position P, N or R.
