Selecting reverse gear
With the vehicle stationary, shift the
gear lever into neutral then into
reverse gear.
Vehicle with manual gearbox: follow
the gate drawn on the knob, and
depending on the vehicle, raise
ring 1 against the gear lever to select
reverse.
The reversing lights will light up as
soon as reverse gear is selected with
the ignition on.
Vehicle fitted with Parking proximity
sensor: see the information on the
parking proximity sensor in Section
2 for the special notes.
If you have power assisted steering
fitted, do not leave the steering
wheel on full lock when the vehicle
is parked as this may damage the
pump.
Variable power assisted steering
The variable power assisted steering
system is equipped with an
electronic control system which
alters the level of assistance to suit
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
(assistance is not provided).
