  • Select position M.

The engaged gear is
shown in the instrument panel.

The gear change request is only carried out if engine speed allows it.

There is no need to release the accelerator pedal during a gear change.

When braking or slowing down, the gearbox automatically selects a gear so that the vehicle can accelerate again later.

During hard acceleration, the higher gear is only engaged when the driver operates the gear selector or the steering wheel controls (except when engine speed is close to maximum).

You can change mode at any time by moving the gear selector from M to A or vice versa.

Never select neutral N while driving.
