GEAR LEVER HANDBRAKE POWER STEERING
To select reverse gear
(car stationary)
Move the lever to neutral, then lift
up ring 1 against the gear lever knob
to enable selection of reverse gear.
The reversing lights will light up as
soon as reverse gear is selected
(with the ignition on).
To release:
Pull the lever up slightly, p ress
button 2, then lower the lever to the
floor.
The red warning light on the
instrument panel will light up if
you are driving with an incorrectly
released handbrake.
When driving, check that
the handbrake is
completely released, risk
of overheating.
To apply:
Pull upwards, check that the
vehicle is properly imm obilised.
Depending on the slope
and/or vehicle load, it
may be necessary to
apply the handbrake by
two additional notches and to
engage a gear (1st or reverse gear)
for vehicles with manual
gearboxes or position P for
vehicles with automatic
gearboxes.
Never leave the steering wheel on
full lock when the car is parked if
you have power-assisted steering
fitted, as this may damage the
pump.
As a general rule, you
should not switch off the
ignition when in motion,
and never on hills
(power steering and brake servo
will not function).
