Automatic operation
Move the selector to position D .
The gearbox constantly selects the
gear that is best suited to the follow-
ing parameters:
- driving style,
- road profi le
- vehicle load.
The gearbox operates without requir-
ing any intervention on your part.
For certain manoeuvres (for exam-
ple overtaking), you can obtain max-
imum acceleration by pressing the
accelerator pedal hard down past
the mechanical force zone (point of
resistance), which then produces an
automatic change down to a lower
gear.
When braking, the gearbox may
change down automatically in order
to provide effective engine braking.
If you lift your foot off the accelera-
tor abruptly, the gearbox will not en-
gage a higher gear.
Manual operation
Position of the selector for manual
gear changing.
Move the selector to position M .
Push the selector towards the
" + " sign to change up a gear.
Pull the selector towards the " - "
sign to change down a gear.
- If the vehicle stops or reduces
speed (for example when ap-
proaching a stop sign), the gearbox
changes down automatically to fi rst
gear.
- In sequential mode, it is not nec-
essary to release the accelerator
during gear changes.
- A request to change gear is ac-
cepted only if the engine speed
permits it.
- The SPORT and SNOW modes
do not operate in sequential
mode.
