Do not allow the vehicle to remain
stationary with a drive gear selected
and the engine running. Always
select N and apply the Electric
Parking Brake (EPB) if the engine is
to idle for a prolonged period. The
vehicle may move unexpectedly
with any other gear position
selected.
Do not use N for vehicle recovery.
If the rotary gear selector is obstructed,
remove the obstruction and then start the
engine. The gear selector should elevate.
If the rotary gear selector fails to elevate
and there is no obstruction, a fault in the
system is indicated. The gear selector can
still be used in the lowered position but
be aware, that it will not automatically
select P when the engine is switched off.
Therefore, P should be selected manually.
The fault should be rectified by a Retailer/
Authorised Repairer at the earliest
opportunity.
MANUAL GEAR SELECTION
The gear shift paddles can be configured
to be active in both Drive (D) and Sport
(S) or active in S only, via the vehicle
settings/set-up. See 49, INSTRUMENT
PANEL MENU.
When the gear selector is in the D position
(unless set to be active in S only mode),
manual gear selection mode may be
directly accessed by the single action of
operating the steering wheel gear shift
paddles (Commandshift).
If continued use of the manual gear
selection mode (Commandshift) is
required, the gear selector should be
moved to the S position.
If the gear selector remains in the D
position, temporary use of the manual
gear selection mode will be held while the
driver is accelerating, decelerating,
cornering or continuing to request gear
shift changes, via the steering wheel
paddles.
ROTARY GEAR SELECTOR
When the engine is started, the rotary gear
selector elevates from its lowered, stowed
position. If an obstruction occurs, switch
the engine off, remove the obstruction
and start the engine again.
If the rotary gear selector fails to elevate
and there is no obstruction, a fault in the
system is indicated. The gear selector can
still be used in the lowered position. Make
sure that Park (P) is selected before the
engine is switched off. The fault should
be rectified by a Retailer/Authorised
Repairer at the earliest opportunity.
P should be selected before switching the
engine off. However, it is possible to
switch the engine off with Reverse (R),
Drive (D) or Sport (S) selected. The rotary
gear selector will automatically select P,
while retracting into the centre console.
Note: If the engine is switched off with
Neutral (N) selected, the system will wait
for 10 minutes before selecting P. This
procedure only allows the vehicle to be
conveyed through a car wash and should
not be used for vehicle recovery purposes.
