vehicle away.
When releasing the transmission inter-
lock manually, press the brake, otherwise
there is a risk that the vehicle could start to
roll.<
Only release the transmission interlock manu-
ally for towing away the car. Engage the trans-
mission interlock again after parking the car.
If the parking brake must also be manually

1. First release the parking brake manually,
see page 58.
2. Then release the automatic transmission's
interlock manually.
Releasing
1. Release the cover on the underside of the
instrument panel and fold it down. To do
this, turn the lock anticlockwise e.g. with the
aid of a coin.
2. Pull out release lever at the loop 1 until it
engages in position: the transmission inter-
lock is released.
Engage the transmission interlock again
after parking the car. There is otherwise a
risk of the car starting to roll.<
Locking
1. Squeeze together the red locking lever,
arrow, and the release lever to disengage
the release lever.
2. Guide the release lever back to the limit
position – the transmission interlock is now
engaged again.
3. Fold the cover back up and secure it.
