STOP position.
IMPORTANT
To move the car, from position P press
the brake pedal and, select the desired
gear using the control panel (1) fig. 134
on the dashboard: D to move forwards
or R to engage reverse. The display will
show the gear engaged.

brake pedal fully pressed.

car could injure the occupants or people
nearby. As a general rule, do not get out

Before leaving the car, always apply the
electric parking brake, put the transmission
in the P (Park) position and turn the ignition
device to the STOP position. In this mode,
the transmission remains locked in position

movement of the car.

the brake pedal is released, the car
starts moving forwards or backwards
("creeping" effect). The accelerator
should not be pressed in this case.

in order to shift the transmission from
position P (Park) to positions R, N or D;
to shift the transmission from position
N (Neutral) to positions R or D the
brake pedal must be pressed.
Automatic shift to P function
The function automatically put the
transmission in P (Park) if there is any
indication that the driver may leave
the car while the transmission is in D

turn the ignition device to the STOP
position and lock all the doors.

To stop the engine at speeds higher
than 2.5 km/h hold the button of the
ignition device pressed or press it three
times in a row within a few seconds.
The ignition device is in the ENGINE
