AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Automatic gearbox which offers a
choice between the comfort of fully
automatic operation, enhanced by
the sport and snow programmes, or
manual gear changing.
Therefore, you have a choice of four
driving modes:
- automatic operation for elec-
tronic control of the gears by the
gearbox,
- the SPORT programme for a
more dynamic style of driving,
- the SNOW programme to im-
prove driving in conditions of
poor grip,
- manual operation for sequen-
tial changing of the gears by the
driver. Mode selection
Automatic mode: selector in po-
sition D .
Sequential mode: selector in po-
sition M .
SPORT mode: selector in posi-
tion D with button " S " pressed.
SNOW mode: selector in posi-
tion D with button " " pressed.
Displays on the instrument
panel
The position of the gear selector is
displayed on the instrument panel.
A position grille on the selector al-
lows you to view the position that is
selected.
To start the engine, the selector
has to be in position P or N .
For safety:
- position
P can be disengaged
only if you press the brake
pedal,
- when a door is opened, an au- dible signal is heard if the se-
lector is not in position P ,
- always make sure that the se- lector is in position P before
you leave your vehicle.
If the gearbox is in position P but the
position of the selector is different,
reposition the selector on P so that
you can start the vehicle.
