GEARBOX
To engage the gears, press the clutch ped-
al fully and shift the gear lever into one of
the required positions (the diagram is
shown on the knob fig. 2).
To engage the 6
thgear, move the gearshift
lever pressing slightly rightwards to pre-
vent engaging the 4
thgear accidentally. Do
the same for shifting from 6thto 5thgear.
IMPORTANT The car can only be put in-
to reverse gear when it has stopped mov-
ing completely. With the engine running,
before engaging the reverse, wait at least
2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully down
to prevent damage and grating of the
gears.
To change gears properly
you must push the clutch
pedal fully down. It is therefore es-
sential that there is nothing under the
pedals: make sure the mats are lying
flat and do not get in the way of the
pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand
resting on the gear lever as
the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to
premature wear on the gearbox inter-
nal components.To engage reverse R (6-speed gearbox)
from neutral, proceed as follows: raise ring
Aunder the knob and at the same time
move the gearshift lever leftwards and
then forward fig. 2.
