2.2 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION OF CLUTCH PROTECTION
Pulling off in too high a gear puts excessive
stress on the clutch. The clutch protection
system makes it difficult to drive off in too high a
gear. The clutch protection system prevents
driving away in the 3
rd
or higher gear. If
nevertheless a higher gear is selected to pull off
in, a yellow warning will be activated on DIP
(selected gear too high) and an acoustic signal
will sound when accelerating. At the same time
the accelerator pedal signal will be ignored, so
that acceleration is not possible.
To be able to drive away, a lower gear than the
3
rd
must be selected. Located on the gearbox
are the switches for the gate 3/4 (1) and the
low-range switch (2).

rd
gear or higher and
- speed is lower than 5 km/h and
- the clutch is depressed.
