Engaging reverse gear

In the 6-speed conﬁguration, raise the

collar below the gear knob.

To change gear easily, always depress

the clutch pedal fully.

To prevent the mat from becoming

caught under the pedal:

When the vehicle is stationary,

release the steering wheel adjustment

mechanism by pulling the lever.

Adjust the steering wheel for height

and reach, then lock the mechanism by

pushing the lever fully forward.

The lever should be moved slowly

to reduce noise.

To engage reverse gear, wait until the

vehicle has come to a complete stop.

-

ensure that the mat is positioned

and secured correctly on the ﬂoor,

never ﬁt one mat on top of another.

-

When driving, avoid leaving your hand

on the gear knob as the force exerted,

even if slight, may wear the internal

components of the gearbox over time.

in the instrument panel

in the form of an arrow. It

may be accompanied by a

recommended gear.

braking, ...).

recommendations must not be

considered compulsory. This is

because the conﬁguration of the road,

the trafﬁc density and safety remain

determining factors when choosing

the best gear. Therefore, the driver

remains responsible for deciding

whether or not to follow the indications

given.

Automatic mode

Changing gear

Acceleration

For optimum acceleration (e.g. to

overtake another vehicle), simply

press the pedal beyond the point of

resistance at the end of its travel, by

pressing down ﬁrmly.

Changing to automatic

mode

Pull on the "+" control

paddle to change up.

Pull on the "-" control

paddle to change

down.

Move the gear selector to A.

If the vehicle stops or reduces

speed (for example when

approaching a stop sign),

the gearbox changes down

automatically, to ﬁrst gear if

needed.

It is not necessary to release the

accelerator completely during gear

changes.

A gear change instruction is

accepted only if the engine speed

permits.

For safety reasons, depending on

the engine speed, a change down

may be performed automatically.

The gearbox then operates in

automatic mode, without any action on

your part.

It constantly selects the gear that is

best suited to the following conditions:

Vehicle stationary, with the

engine running

-

driving style,

road proﬁle,

optimum fuel consumption.

In the event of a prolonged stop with

the engine running, the gearbox

changes automatically to neutral N.

-

Stopping the vehicle

Before doing anything in the

engine compartment, check that

the gear selector is in neutral N.

In situations of high engine speeds

(heavy acceleration), a change

up will not occur unless the driver

operates the electronic gearbox control

paddle.
