Functioning; Finding A Parking Space - Skoda Superb Owner's Manual

The parking aid is part of the park assist system, therefore the information
and safety guidelines » page 156, Parking aid must also be read and ob-
served.
WARNING
The system only serves as an assistance and does not relieve the driver
■
of the responsibility for the vehicle operation.
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 spokes – risk of injury!
During a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
■
ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road because of the surface
conditions. Therefore we suggest that you do not use the system in such
situations.
External noise sources may affect the signals of the system sensors. Un-
■
der adverse conditions, this may cause objects or people to not be recog-
nised by the system.
CAUTION
If other vehicles are parked behind the kerb or on it, the system can also
■
guide your vehicle beyond the kerb or onto it. Ensure that the wheels or the
wheel rims of your vehicle are not damaged and if necessary intervene in time.
Under certain circumstances, surfaces or structures of certain objects such
■
as wire mesh fences or powder snow cannot be recognised by the system.
Under adverse weather conditions (heavy rain, water vapour, very low or
■
high temperatures etc.), the system function may be limited - "incorrect recog-
nition of obstacle".
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 the manufacturer.
Do without the use of the system if snow chains or a spare wheel is moun-
■
ted.
If wheels other than those approved by the manufacturer are mounted, the
■
resulting position of the vehicle in the parking space can differ slightly. This
can be avoided by readjusting the system at a specialist garage.
Note
We recommend performing the parking at a safe speed to about 5 km / h.
