Selector lever lock functions
The selector lever lock in position P or N prevents gears from
being engaged inadvertently, which would cause the vehicle
to move.
The selector lever lock is released as follows:
– Switch on the ignition.
– Press and hold the brake pedal and press the selector lever lock
on the left of the selector lever at the same time.
A delay device prevents the lever form blocking, on gently passing through
position N (f
or example, from R to D). This makes it possible, if the car is
stuck, to remove it “by swinging it”. Only when the lever is in position N for
more than 1 second, without pressing the brake, does the lever block come
into operation.
At speeds of over 5 km/h the selector lever lock is automatically blocked in
position N.
Selector lever positions
P - parking lock
This is the correct position for parking the vehicle. To engage and disengage P
press the button on the gearstick knob and depress the brake pedal, while
the car is running.
If the car is not running, it can be unlocked by pressing the knob button.
R - reverse gear
This should only be engaged when the vehicle is at a standstill and the
engine idling. Before engaging position R, starting from position P or N,
depress the brake pedal and press the button on the gearstick knob.
In position R and with the ignition on, the reversing lights come on.
