ELECTRONIC GEARBOX

the five-speed electronic gearbox offers a  
choice between the comfort of automated  
operation or the pleasure of manual gear  
changing.  
All movements of the gear lever are given  
from the middle position.  
N: neutral.  
With your foot on the brake, select this  
position to start, by moving the gear lever to  
the right and then forwards.  
this gearbox provides two driving modes:  
-
an automated mode for automatic control  
of the gears by the gearbox and therefore  
without any action on the part of the  
driver,  
R: reverse gear.  
With the vehicle stationary, keep your foot  
on the brake pedal and move the gear lever  
to the right and then backwards.  
M +/-: sequential mode with manual gear

2nd gear on slippery surfaces  
(2nd press on +).  
"AUTO" and the gear engaged  
appear in the instrument panel  
screen.

the gear lever stays in the position selected  
before switching off the ignition.  
"N" appears in the instrument panel screen,  
accompanied by an audible signal when  
you release the brake pedal, to indicate that  
there is a difference between the position of  
the gear lever and the gear selected in the  
gearbox.  
Do not use the accelerator pedal to hold  
the vehicle on a slope, apply the parking  
brake instead; failure to follow this  
procedure can overheat the clutch and  
damage the gearbox.  
to optimise driving comfort and obtain the  
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in  
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.  
If you fully depress the accelerator pedal,  
the gearbox changes down for sharper  
acceleration.  
When moving off on a slope, accelerate  
gradually while releasing the parking brake.  
Select first gear (move the lever towards +)  
or reverse (position R).  
"1" or "R" appears in the instrument panel  
screen.
