GEAR LEVER POWER STEERING
Selecting reverse gear
Vehicles with manual gearbox: refer
to the grid on gear lever knob 1.
Vehicles with automatic gearbox:
refer to “Automatic gearbox” in
Section 2.
The reversing lights will light up as
soon as reverse gear is selected with
the ignition on.
Never drive with an
inadequately-charged battery.
Variable power assisted
steering
Thevariableassistancepower
steering has an electronic
management system that adapts the
level of assistance to the vehicle
speed.
Steering is made easier during
parking manoeuvres (for added
comfort) whilst the force needed to
steer rises progressively as speed
increases (for enhanced safety at
high speeds).
Never switch off the
ignition when travelling
downhill, and avoid
doing so in normal
driving (power steering and
brake servo will not function).
