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.

Adaptive lane assist
Adaptive tracking helps to keep the vehicle in the position between the boun-
dary lines selected by the driver, by means of steering intervention.
If the position within the lane is changed, the system quickly adapts and holds
the newly-selected position.
Steering wheel vibrations
In the following situations, it may occasionally be the case that due to the
steering wheel vibrations the syst4em indicates that a driver steering inter-
vention is required.
▶ The system is not able to keep the vehicle by a within the lane due to a
steering intervention.
▶ During an intense system-related steering intervention, the system suddenly
cannot recognize the boundary lines.WARNINGThe system function may be restricted if, for example there is danger due
to ruts on a downhill road or in a crosswind.1)

systems » page 212, in section Introduction .■
The system is intended for emergency situations when the driver is sud-
denly unable to take over the steering task. Therefore, never try to test out
the system - there is a risk of an accident!
Function
Read and observe
on page 246 first.
The assistant for emergencies (following known as system) detects inactivity
of the driver, which for example can be caused by a sudden loss of conscious-
ness. The system then performs measures as safely as possible to decelerate
the vehicle to a stop.
The system is only available for vehicles with Automatic transmission.
The assistant for emergencies is an extension of the systems Lane Assist
» page 243 and ACC » page 233 and works by using the functions of these two
systems.
For this reason, the chapters on System Lane Assist and ACC are to be read
carefully and the safety notes are to be observed.
System intervention
If the system detects the driver's inactivity, it draws attention to this fact by a beep and a message on the display of the instrument cluster. It keeps the ve-
hicle in its lane.
If the driver does not take over the steering even after a repeated warning,
the system automatically brakes the vehicle and after it has come to a stand-
still the parking brake switch on.
With automatic braking, the hazard warning system is switched on.
The automatic braking interventions can be cancelled by pressing the acceler-
ator pedal or by means of a steering intervention.
Operating conditions

The traffic sign recognition (following known as system) shows certain traffic
signs (e.g. speed limits) on the display of the instrument cluster and if necessa-
ry warns against excessive speeds.
WARNING■ Please take note of the general points relating to the use of assistance
systems » page 212, in section Introduction .■
Vertical traffic signs must always take precedence over the traffic signs
shown in the display. The driver is always responsible for correctly assess-
ing the traffic situation.
■
Speed specifications in the displayed road signs refer to the customary
speed units. For example, the display
the display can therefore refer to
km / h or mph, specific to the country.
246Driving
Page 250 of 336
Data from the sensor is supplemented by information from the Infotainment
Navigation. This is the reason why traffic signs with maximum speeds can also
be shown on sections of roads which do not have any traffic signs.
Warning when exceeding the speed limit
The warning when exceeding the permissible speed (based on the detected
traffic sign) can be activated and set in Infotainment » page 247.
Mode when towing a trailer
For vehicles with a factory-fitted towing device, in the Infotainment it is possi- ble to enable or disable the relevant traffic signs for trailer operation and the
top speed for towing a trailer » page 247, Settings in Infotainment .

System limitation (Navigation data not available)
If the Infotainment Navigation submits no data, a message regarding the limi- tation of the system function appears. Check whether the map documents are
up to date or whether the vehicle is currently in a location for which no naviga-
tion data are available.
Traffic signs unavailable
No speed restriction is detected, a message is displayed regarding the unavail-
ability of road signs.
Fatigue detection
The fatigue detection system (following known as system) recommends the
driver taking a break from driving when, because of the driver's steering be-
haviour, driver fatigue can be detected.
From the starting of the journey, the system evaluates the steering behaviour
at speeds 65-200 km/h. If, while driving, there have been changes in the steer-
ing behaviours that are evaluated by the system as indicating possible fatigue,
a break recommendation is issued.
Conditions under which a break from driving is detected by the system ▶ The vehicle is stopped and the ignition switched off.
▶ The vehicle is stopped, the seat belt removed and the driver's door opened.
▶ The vehicle is stopped for more than 15 minutes.
If none of these conditions are met or if the driving style is not changed, the
system recommends a driving break again after 15 minutes.
The system can be activated//deactivated in infotainment in the

Digital Service Plan
260
The service interval display in the display of the instrument cluster will remind
you to carry out every service stipulated by the manufacturer at the right time
in order to prevent you from forgetting them » page 49.
The completion of services can be verified through the printed verification
from the digital service schedule and the respective receipts.
The specified service intervals are tailored to normal operating conditions.
In the case of difficult operating conditions, it is necessary to have some serv-
ice work performed before the date of the next service or between the speci-
fied service intervals. This applies mainly to the cleaning or the replacement of
the air filter insert in regions with heavy dust pollution as well as checking and
replacing the toothed belt, but also to vehicles with diesel particle filters,
which can put greater strain on the engine oil.
The following is understood under difficult conditions:
▶ Fuel containing sulphur.
▶ Frequent short trips.
▶ Longer periods of engine idling (e.g. taxis).
▶ Operation in areas with heavy dust pollution.
▶ Frequent trailer operation.
▶ Predominantly stop-and-go traffic as is often the case in city driving, for ex-
ample.
▶ Operation predominantly during winter.
You will be told at the specialist garage whether the operating conditions of your vehicle may make it necessary for service work to be carried out between
the normal service intervals.
Different service charges may apply from the particular scope of work required,
depending on the vehicle type and equipment and the status of your vehicle.
Note
■ The customer is responsible for covering the cost of all services including
changing or replenishing the oil, even during the warranty period, unless sta-
ted otherwise in the ŠKODA AUTO. warranty terms or other agreements.■
You will be informed about the current service scopes for the particular serv-
ice work by the specialist garage.

Check tyre pressures
Check the tyre pressure, including that of the spare wheel, at least once a
month and also before setting off on a long journey.
Always check the inflation pressure when the tyres are cold. Do not reduce the
higher pressure of warm tyres.
In vehicles with tyre pressure monitoring, tyre pressure values must be saved
each time the pressures are changed » page 249.
BCDEFGWARNING■
Do not drive with an incorrect tyre pressure - risk of accident.■In the event of very fast pressure loss, e.g. in the event of sudden tyre
damage, an attempt should be made to bring the vehicle carefully to a stop
without sudden steering movements and without any hard braking.
Note
The declaration of conformity (COC document), can be obtained from a ŠKODA 1)
partner.
Tire wear and wheel change
Fig. 326
Tyre wear indicator / wheel change
The tyre wear increases in the following circumstances.
▶ Incorrect tyre pressure.
▶ Driving style (e.g. fast cornering, rapid acceleration / deceleration).
▶ Incorrect balancing of wheels (have the wheels balanced after changing
tyres / repair or with “restlessness” on the steering).
▶ Wheel alignment error.
There are wear indicator markers in the tyre profiles, indicating whether the
minimum permissible tread depth has been reached » Fig. 326 -
. A tyre is to
be regarded as worn out when this indicator is flush with the tread. Markings
on the walls of the tyres with the letters “TWI”, triangular symbols or other
symbols identify the position of the wear indicators.
To ensure uniform wear on all tyres, we recommend that you change the
wheels every 10 000 km, in line with the schedule » Fig. 326 -
.
