Multicollision brake (MCB)Read and observe
on page 213 first.
MCB helps to decrease speed after a collision by means of automatic braking
interventions and to stabilise the vehicle. This reduces the risk of a subse-
quent crash due to uncontrolled vehicle movement.
The automatic brake interventions can take place only if the following condi-
tions are met.
There was a front, side and rear-end collision of a certain severity.
The impact speed was greater than approx. 10 km/h.
The brakes, the ESL and other required electrical systems remain function-
al after impact.
The accelerator pedal is not actuated.
Trailer stabilisation system (TSA)
Read and observe
on page 213 first.
The TSA helps the combination stable in situations where the trailer sways
and then the whole trailer combination.
TSA brakes the individual wheels of the towing vehicle in order to damp the rocking motion of the entire vehicle combination.
The following conditions are required for the correct TSA function. The trailer was shipped from the factory or purchased from the ŠKODA
genuine accessories.
The trailer is electrically connected to the towing vehicle via the trailer
socket.
The parking aid is activated.
The speed is greater than 60 km/h.

The parking aid (hereinafter referred to as system) uses acoustic signals or the
Infotainment screen when manoeuvring around obstacles in the vicinity of the
vehicle.
WARNING■ The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 212, in section Introduction .■
Moving persons or objects may not be recognized by the system sensors.
■
Under certain circumstances, surfaces of certain objects and types of
clothing cannot reflect the system signals. There is a danger that such ob-
jects or people may not be recognised by the system sensors.
■
External noise sources may affect the signals of the system sensors.
There is a danger that obstacles may not be detected by the system sen-
sors.
■
Before reversing, you should satisfy yourself that there are no small ob-
stacle, such as a rock, thin post etc., in front or behind your vehicle. Such
obstacles may not be recognised by the system sensors.
CAUTION
■ Keep the system sensors » Fig. 266 on page 216 clean, snow-and ice-free
and do not cover with any objects of any kind, otherwise the system function-
ing may be impaired.■
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”.
■
Accessories fitted to the vehicle rear, such as bicycle carriers, can impair the
system function.

Wizard for “Blind Spot”Monitoring - OperationRead and observe
and on page 219 first.
At a speed over 15 km/h, the area alongside and behind the vehicle is moni-
tored by the system. At the same time, the distance and the difference in
speed between your vehicle and the other vehicles in the monitored area can
be measured.
When driving, the sensors monitor an area to the left and right to the extent of
a normal lane width.
If a vehicle is detected in the “blind spot” area, the system indicates this vehi-
cle by the indicator light in the exterior mirror.
System constraint
The system is unable to recognise the specific lane width by means of sensors.
Therefore this can e.g. in the following cases respond to a vehicle in a further
lane.
▶ When driving on a road with narrow lanes or on the lane edge.
▶ Driving around a bend.
The system may also respond to objects on the roadside such as crash barriers,
noise barriers or similar objects.

D
at a greater speed of max. 10
km » Fig. 274 . If the speed during the overtaking is even higher, then there is
no warning by the warning light.
The warning display is always in the exterior mirror on the side of the vehicle where a vehicle is detected in the “blind spot”.
The greater the speed difference between the two vehicles, the earlier the
warning (by means of the warning light) regarding the vehicle that is overtak-
ing you takes place.
Two warning levels
light up - a vehicle has been detected in the “blind spot”.
flash - a vehicle has been detected in the “blind spot” and the turn signal is
switched on .
An advanced warning for vehicles with Lane Assist
flash also if the steering wheel is turned in the direction of the vehicle in
the “blind spot” . Therefore the Lane Assist » page 243 must be enabled and
the boundary line between the vehicles detected.
If in this case your vehicle indicates crossing the boundary line, with a short vi-
bration of the steering wheel.

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 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 parking operation.
The Park Assist is an extension of the parking aid » page 215 and operates on
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.
225Assist systems
Page 228 of 336
WARNING■The general information relating to the use of assistance systems must
be observed » page 212, 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 a parking manoeuvre on loose or slippery surfaces (gravel, snow,
ice, etc.) you may stray from the calculated road. It is therefore recommen-
ded 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 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 good time.
Note
■ 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
» Fig. 282 on page 226 button or by a steering intervention.OperationFig. 282

Advance warning
If the system detects a risk of collision, the warning light appears on the dis-
play
» Fig. 300 and an audible signal is emitted.
The pre-warning display can occur in the following situations.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a moving obstacle at a driving speed range
of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 210 km/h.
▶ If there is a risk of collision with a stationary obstacle at a driving speed
range of approx. 30 km/h to approx. 85 km/h.
With a warning the brake pedal must be pressed or the moving obstacle is to
be avoided!
Acute alert
If the driver does not react to the advance warning when in danger of a colli-
sion with a moving obstacle, the system briefly applies the brake automatically
via an active brake intervention to draw attention to the potential danger of a
collision again.
Automatic Braking
If the driver does not respond to acute warning, the system begins to auto-
matically brake the vehicle.
If an automatic brake intervention is triggered by the system, the pressure in
the brake system increases and the brake pedal cannot be operated with the
normal pedal stroke.
The automatic braking interventions can be cancelled by pressing the acceler-
ator pedal or by means of a steering intervention.
Brake assist
If the driver brakes inadequate with an impending collision, the system auto-
matically increases braking force.
The braking assistance only occurs as long as the brake pedal is being firmly
pressed down.Deactivation/activationFig. 301

245
The lane departure warning (following known as system) helps to keep the ve-
hicle between the boundary lines of a lane.
The system recognises the boundary lines of the lane using a sensor
» Fig. 303 .
When the vehicle approaches a detected line between lanes, the system
makes a light movement of the steering wheel in the opposite direction to the
boundary line. This corrective steering intervention can be manually overrid-
den at any time.WARNING■ Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
systems » page 212, in section Introduction .■
Lane Assist can help you keep the vehicle within the lane. However, it
does not steer the vehicle for you. The driver retains full responsibility for
steering at all times.
■
Some objects or markings on the road can be recognised as the boundary
lines - an erroneous steering intervention may be the result.
WARNINGThe system may not be able to recognise the boundary line, or recognise it
incorrectly, for example, in the following situations.■
When visibility is poor, (e.g. fog, heavy rain, thick snowfall).
■
When driving in “sharp” bends.
■
The sensor is blinded by the sun or oncoming traffic.
■
The field of view of the sensor is limited by an obstacle or a preceding ve-
hicle.
CAUTION
Do not attach any stickers or similar objects in front of the sensor on the wind-
screen to avoid impairing the functions of the system.
Note
■ The system is designed for driving on motorways and roads with adequate
longitudinal markings.■
The system can detect both continuous and broken lines.
