To engage reverse, the vehicle must be
immobilised with your foot on the brake.
F Select position R.
At low speed, if reverse gear is requested,
the N warning lamp flashes and the gearbox
goes into neutral automatically.
To engage reverse, put the gear selector into
position N, then to position R.
There is an audible signal on
engagement of reverse.
You can change mode at any time by
moving the gear selector from A to M or
the other way round.
Before switching off the engine:
- change to position N to be in neutral,
or
- leave the vehicle in gear; in this case the
vehicle cannot be moved.
For all parking situations, you must
apply the parking brake to immobilise
the vehicle.
Never select neutral (position N) when
moving.
Manual mode
F Select position M.
The gears engaged appear in succession in the
instrument panel.
The gear change requests are only carried out
if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
pedal during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically so that the vehicle
picks up in the right gear.
Under full acceleration, the change up will not
take place unless the driver operates the gear
selector or steering mounted control paddle
(unless the engine is close to its maximum
speed).
Reverse Stopping the vehicle
Before doing anything under the
bonnet, ensure that the gear selector
is in neutral (position N) and that the
parking brake is applied.
When immobilising the vehicle with the
engine running, you must put the gear
selector into the neutral (position N).
