• When the clutch is overheated,
the safe protection mode oper-
ates. According to the safe pro-
tection mode, the transmission
indicator blinks with a chime
sound. In this time, the LCD warn-
ing about safe protection mode
also displays.
If this occurs, the transmission
may not shift smoothly due to
clutch overheating. To prevent
damage to the transmission
clutches, shift into Park and wait
for several seconds before driv-
ing again.

Do not hold the vehicle on a hill
in Drive or Reverse by applying
the accelerator pedal because
the clutch may be overheated.
Instead, use the foot brake or
parking brake.
When the transmission shifts
automaticaly or manually, the
gear shifts may be noticeable;
however, this is characteristic of
the dual-clutch transmission and
does not indicate a transmission
concern.
• If the vehicle is held by applying
accelerator pedal on a hill, the
transmission and clutch will be
damaged. To hold on a hill, use
the parking brake or foot brake.
• During the first 1000 miles, you
may feel that the vehicle may not
be smooth when accelerating at
low speed. During this break-in
period, the shift quality and per-
formance of your new vehicle is
continuously optimized.
