Manual gear changing
You can drive the truck entirely with manual gear
changing or take over from the automatic gear
changing system whenever required. Gear changing is
done by first moving the lever to the manual position
M. The +/– button on the side of the lever is then used
to select the gear.
For a new gear, the +/– button must be pressed once
for each gear step upwards or downwards, to the
desired gear.
Press several times on the +/– button in sequence to
shift through several gears at once.
Gear changing takes place as soon as the +/– button is
released.

Note!
Do not release the accelerator pedal
while changing gear.
Note!
If the vehicle is stopped with a not
permitted starting gear engaged in
the M mode, the starting gear is
automatically selected.
Caution!
Starting in too high a gear strains
the clutch a lot and can increase
the risk for clutch breakdown.
