Automatic rear window wiping can be activated or deactivated in the Infotain-
ment » Operating instructions for Infotainment , chapter Vehicle settings (CAR
button) .
Top up with windscreen wiper fluid » page 218.WARNING■
Properly maintained windscreen wiper blades are essential for clear visibility
and safe driving » page 250.■
Replace the windscreen wiper blades once or twice a year for safety rea-
sons. These can be purchased from a ŠKODA Partner.
■
Do not use the windscreen washer system at low temperatures, without
heating the windscreen beforehand. Otherwise the window cleaner could
freeze on the windscreen and restrict the view to the front.
■
Automatic wiping in rain only operates as a support. The driver is not re-
leased from the responsibility to set the function of the windscreen wipers
manually depending on the visibility conditions.
CAUTION
■ In cold temperatures and during the winter, check before the journey or before
switching on the ignition that the wiper blades are not frozen to the windscreen. If the windscreen wipers are switched on when the blades are frozen to the
windscreen, this may damage both the blades and windscreen wiper motor!■
If the ignition is switched off while the windscreen wipers are switched on, the
windscreen wipers will continue wiping in the same mode after the ignition is
turned back on. The windscreen wipers could freeze up in cold temperatures be- tween the time the ignition was turned off and when it was turned back on again.
■
Carefully detach frozen wiper blades from the front or rear window.
■
Remove snow and ice from the windscreen wipers before driving.
■
If the windscreen wipers are handled carelessly, there is a risk of damage to the
windscreen.
■
Do not switch on the ignition if the front wiper arms are retracted. The wiper
blades would move back into their rest position and while doing so damage the
paintwork of the bonnet.
■
If there is an obstacle on the windscreen, the wiper will try to push away the
obstacle. The wiper stops automatically after 5 attempts to eliminate the obsta-
cle, in order to avoid a damage to the wiper. Remove the the obstacle and switch
the wiper on again.
Note■ Each time the ignition switches off for the third time, the position of the wind-
screen wipers changes. This counteracts an early fatigue of the wiper rubbers.■
The rear window wiper only operates if the boot lid is closed.
■
Keep the wiper blades clean. They may become soiled, e.g., with wax residues
after washing in automatic car wash systems » page 204.
■
The windscreen washer nozzles for the windscreen are heated when the en-
gine is running and the outside temperature is less than approx. +10 °C.

140WARNING■ A lack of fuel can cause irregular engine running or cause the engine to shut
down. The brake assist systems would then fail to function – risk of accident!■
Adjust the speed and driving style to the current visibility, weather, road and
traffic conditions. The increased safety offered by the brake assist systems must not tempt you to take greater risks than otherwise – risk of accident!
■
In the event of an ABS fault, visit a specialist garage immediately. Adjust
your style of driving according to the damage to the ABS as you will not know
how great the damage is and the limitation it is placing on the braking effi-
ciency.
CAUTION
■ All four wheels must be fitted with the same tyres approved by the manufactur-
er to ensure the brake assist systems operate correctly.■
Changes to the vehicle (e.g. to the engine, brakes, chassis) can influence the
functionality of the brake assist systems » page 200.
■
If a fault occurs in the ABS system, the ESC, ASR and EDL also do not work. An
ABS fault is indicated with the warning light » page 18 .
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)Fig. 127
ESC button
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 137.
The ESC system helps to maintain control of the vehicle in situations where it is
being operated at its dynamic limits, such as a sudden change to the direction of
travel. The risk of skidding is reduced and your car thus offers greater driving sta-
bility depending on the conditions of the road surface.
The ESC system is automatically activated each time the ignition is switched on.The direction which the driver wishes to take is determined based on the steering angle and the speed of the vehicle and is constantly compared with the actualbehaviour of the vehicle. If differences exist, such as the car beginning to skid,
the ESC system will automatically brake the appropriate wheel.
During an intervention of the system, the warning light
flashes in the instru-
ment cluster.
The following systems are integrated into the Electronic Stability Control (ESC).

Adaptive cruise control (From here on referred to only as ACC) can maintain the
set speed or the proximity to the vehicle ahead consistently, without the need to
operate the gas or brake pedals.
The state in which the ACC maintains the speed or the proximity is described as
control from here on.
WARNING■
The ACC only works as an aid - it does not absolve the driver of the respon-
sibility to maintain full control over the vehicle's steering.■
Always adapt your speed and safety proximity to the vehicle ahead to the
current visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions.
■
The driver must always be ready to take over steering of the vehicle himself
(accelerate or brake).
Note
■ The ACC is designed primarily for use on motorways.■Some ACC notifications in the display of the instrument cluster may be hidden
by notifications for other functions. An ACC notification automatically appears for
a brief moment when there is a change in status of the ACC.
Instructions and Information
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-ings
on page 148.
WARNING■ The ACC does not react when approaching a stationary obstacle, such as
traffic jams, vehicle breakdowns or vehicles waiting at a traffic light.■
The ACC does not respond to crossing or oncoming objects. 148Driving

to the desired proximity lev-
el.
Note
■ If the proximity is changed in the infotainment, the change will only come into
effect after a subsequent activation of the ACC.■
The proximity is dependent on the speed. The higher the speed, the greater the
proximity to the vehicle ahead.
■
On wet roads, a longer time interval to the vehicle ahead should always be se-
lected than on dry roads.
Special driving conditionsFig. 139
Special conditions: Cornering / narrow vehicles or vehicles travel-
ling side by side
Fig. 140
Special conditions: Lane changes of other vehicles / stationary ve-
hicles
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 148.
The following and similar situations require special attention of the driver.
When cornering
When driving around long bends the ACC may respond to a vehicle in the adjacent
lane » Fig. 139 -
. Your own vehicle is regulated with respect to this vehicle and
will no longer respond to the vehicle ahead.
In such cases, control should be disabled by accelerating, applying the brake or
pressing the button on the operating lever .
» Fig. 138 on page 151 .
153Assist systems
Page 157 of 287
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side
Narrow vehicles or vehicles travelling side by side are not detected by the radar
sensor until they are within the sensor's range » Fig. 139 - . This is especially
true for narrow vehicles, such as motorcycles.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Other vehicles changing lanes
Vehicles that change onto the lane with a small proximity » Fig. 140 - do not
have to be detected by the radar sensor in time. The result may be a delayed ACC
response.
If necessary, slow down the car by applying the brake.
Stationary vehicles
The ACC does not detect stationary objects! When a vehicle detected by the ACC turns or sheers off and there is a stationary vehicle in front of this vehi-cle, » Fig. 140 -
the ACC does not respond to the stationary vehicle.
In such cases, take over the steering and apply the brake.
When overtaking
When your vehicle is being controlled (the speed is lower than that which is stor-
ed) and the indicator is activated, the ACC interprets that the driver intends to
overtake. The ACC automatically accelerates the vehicle, thereby reducing the
proximity to a vehicle ahead.
If the vehicle changes to the fast lane and no vehicle is detected ahead, the ACC
accelerates until the set speed is reached and then keeps it constant.
Acceleration can be cancelled at any time by touch on the brake pedal or pressing
the button
on the control lever » Fig. 138 on page 151 .
Vehicles with special load or special body parts
Other vehicles with a load or with body parts protruding from the sides, back or
top of the vehicle contour may not be detected by the ACC.
Control should therefore be disabled whenever you are driving behind or overtak-ing such a vehicle.
Towing a trailer
When towing a trailer, the ACC control will be less powerful. The manner of driv- ing should therefore be adapted to this limitation.
Information messages
First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings
on page 148.
If the symbol
appears in the instrument cluster display when ACC is enabled, it
means that the ACC is not working.
The messages and information are indicated in the instrument cluster display. ACC: no sensor view!
The sensor is dirty or has no “visibility”. Stop the car, switch off the engine and
clean the sensor or remove the obstacle causing the lack of “visibility” » Fig. 135
