Driving pprogrammes ssoftware
The gearbox management is fitted with
several driving programmes. According to
the driving style or to the momentary situ-
ation, an
economy,
low-consumption, or
a more “
sporty
” programme will be
selected.
The programme is selected
automati-
cally
depending on the movement of the
accelerator pedal.
If the accelerator pedal is moved slowly,
or at a normal rate, the gearbox will shift
into a higher gear earlier, and down into a
lower gear later to
reduce ffuel cconsump-
tion
.
A more “
sporty
” programme is selected
when the accelerator pedal moves
fast
.
The pedal does not have to be depressed
to the point of
kick-down
(see page
2.92). In this mode, the gearbox will shift
up later to make full use of the engine
power reserves.
