GEARBOX (where provided)
The car may be fitted with a mechanical transmission with electronic

electrohydraulic device has been added which controls automatically
the clutch and gear engagement.

OPERATION
The gearbox can work in two operating modes:
❒the first mode is manual (MANUAL): the driver directly requests
gearshifting;
❒the second mode is automatic (AUTO): the system directly decides
when shifting gears. With this operating logic it is possible to
activate the ECO (Economy) function to contain consumption by
pressing button E on the gearbox mask.
To shift gears and to select the operating mode (MANUAL or AUTO)
use the gear lever A set on the central console (see figure).

GEAR LEVER
The gear lever A is located on the dashboard and it is of the floating
“multi-stable position” type, i.e.: it features three stable positions and
three unstable ones.
The three stable positions correspond to neutral N, reverse R and
central position set between the unstable positions UP (+) and DOWN
(–) (see figure).
Unstable positions (i.e.: positions abandoned as soon as the gear lever
is released), are the upshifting position UP (+), the downshifting
position DOWN (–) and the automatic mode position A/M.

To return to manual mode, set the gear lever back to A/M.
With the car stationary and the key removed, it is possible to shift the
lever with/without the brake pedal pressed. The system will perform
no actuation when shifting the lever and the gear engaged will be the
one stored before removing the ignition key.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and the car stationary, any error
between lever position and gear engaged is indicated by warning light
(è) coming on for a few seconds on the instrument panel together
with the message on the multifunction display.

MANUAL OPERATION (MANUAL)
In this operating mode, the decision to change gear
is left to the driver who decides the most
appropriate moment.
To change gears in MANUAL operating mode
proceed as follows:
❒move lever to + (UP) to engage higher gear;
or
❒move lever to – (DOWN) to engage lower gear.
The system will cut in automatically preventing
gearshifting only if the request to change gear will
impair regular engine and transmission operation;
the system will also shift down gears automatically
when the engine (e.g.: at slowing down).The system will warn the driver that the required
gear will not be engaged through the sound of the
buzzer and a dedicated message on the
multifunction display (see paragraph “Warning
lights and messages”).

AUTOMATIC OPERATION (AUTO)
For engaging/disengaging the automatic operating mode (AUTO),
move lever A to A/M: automatic mode activation is indicated by
message AUTO and gear engaged on the display (see figure).
With AUTO mode active, the system decides to change gear
depending on car speed, engine rpm and how the accelerator pedal is
pressed. It is however possible to change gears with the control lever
without deactivating the automatic mode: this function called “gear
advice” suspends the automatic mode for the time required to change
gear.

Automatic operation (AUTO - ECO)
The ECO function can be activated only with automatic mode active.
To activate the ECO function press button E set on the mask near the
gearshift lever. After activating this function, the display shows the
gear engaged and words AUTO and E (see figure).
With ECO function active the system will select the most suitable gear
(according to car speed, engine rpm and how the accelerator pedal is
pressed) to save as much fuel as possible.
If necessary (e.g.: overtaking) the system will change gears in order
to provide suitable torque and power for acceleration (this will take
place in automatic mode regardless of ECO function condition, ON or
OFF).

One second after turning the ignition key to MAR, the gear engaged
and the last operating mode adopted (AUTO or MANUAL) will be
displayed on the display:
