Do not extract the key, as
the steering wheel will lock
automatically and you will
be unable to steer the wheels.
When towing the vehicle,
make sure that you observe
the road traffi c regulations
concerning both the towing device
and driving conduct.
When towing the vehicle
with the engine off,
remember that, without
the assistance of the brake servo,
a stronger effort is required on the
brake pedal for braking and on the
steering wheel for steering.
Screw down the towing
hook into its seat (approx. 11
turns). Accurately clean the
threaded seat before tightening the
hook.
Gearshift paddles on the
steering wheel
In sequential manual operating
mode (MANUAL), upshifting and
downshifting can be controlled not
only with the gearshift lever A but
also with the two paddles positioned
behind the steering wheel.
L - Lower gearshift paddle DOWN.
M - Upper gearshift paddle UP.
Also in automatic gearbox mode,
when the gearshift lever A is in
position D (DRIVE), you can shift to a
different gear by moving one of the
paddles. This action will temporarily
switch the system to sequential
manual operation.
If you then keep to a constant
driving style (low longitudinal and
lateral acceleration), the gearbox
automatically switches back to
automatic operation.
