To change gear easily, always depress the
clutch pedal fully.
To prevent the mat from becoming caught
under the pedal:
- ensure that the mat is positioned
correctly,
- never fit one mat on top of another.
Avoid leaving your hand on the gear knob as
the force exerted, even if slight, may wear
the internal components of the gearbox over
time.
MANUAL GEARBOX
Reverse gear
Raise the collar under the gear knob to
engage reverse gear.
Never engage reverse gear before the
vehicle is completely stationary.
The lever should be moved slowly to reduce
the noise on engaging reverse gear.
If your vehicle is fitted with parking
sensors, the system comes into
operation when reverse gear is engaged; an
audible signal is heard.
Refer to the "Technology on board -
Parking sensors" section.
GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR
Depending on the engine or version, this
system allows fuel consumption to be
reduced by suggesting when to change up.
The gear engagement recommendations
should not be considered to be compulsory.
This because the configuration of the
road, the traffic density and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the
best gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or not to
follow the advice given by the system.
The system never recommends engaging
first gear or reverse, or changing down.
