Manual gear changing
When the vehicle has moved off, select
position M to change to manual mode.
Operate the + or - steering mounted control
paddles.
A UTO disappears and the gears
engaged appear successively in the
instrument panel screen.
The gear change requests are only carried out
if the engine speed permits.
It is not necessary to release the accelerator
during gear changes.
When braking or slowing down, the gearbox
changes down automatically to permit
acceleration in the correct gear.
This selective gear change mode enables you
to overtake, for example, while still remaining in
automatic mode.
Operate the + or - steering mounted control
paddle.
The gearbox engages the gear requested if the
engine speed permits. AUTO is still displayed
in the instrument panel.
After a few moments without any action on
the controls, the gearbox resumes automatic
control of the gears.
Manual mode
At very low speed, if reverse gear is
requested, this will only be taken into
account when the vehicle is immobilised
(foot on the brake). A warning lamp
appears in the instrument panel screen.
On sharp acceleration in manual mode,
the gearbox will not change up unless
the driver acts on the gear lever or the
steering mounted paddles.
Never select neutral N while the vehicle
is moving.
Only engage reverse gear R when the
vehicle is immobilised with the brake
pedal pressed.
