Engaging reverse gear

(vehicle stationary)

Manual gearbox vehicles: follow the pattern shown on knob 1 and, depending on the vehicle, lift the ring against the knob to engage reverse gear.

Automatic gearbox vehicles: refer to the "Automatic gearbox" section in chapter 2.

The reversing lights come on as soon as reverse gear is engaged (ignition on).

! When stopped, depending on the gradient and/or vehicle load, it may be necessary to add at least two extra notches to the handbrake and engage a gear (1st or reverse) for manual gearbox vehicles, or position P for automatic gearbox vehicles. ! In the event of an impact to the underbody of the vehicle (example: contact with a bollard, a raised pavement or any other street furniture), you may damage the vehicle (example: deformation of an axle...). To avoid any risk of accident, have your vehicle checked by a Brand Representative.
