GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR *

System which reduces fuel consump-
tion by advising the driver to change up
a gear on vehicles fi tted with a manual
gearbox.

Operation

The system acts solely in the context of
economical driving.
Depending on the driving situation and
your vehicle's equipment, the system
may advise you to skip one or more
gears. You can follow this instruc-
tion without engaging the intermediate
gears.
The gear engagement recommenda-
tions must not be considered compulso-
ry. In fact, the confi guration of the road,
the amount of traffi c and safety remain
determining factors when choosing the
best gear. Therefore, the driver remains
responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
This function cannot be deactivated.
Example:


- You are in third gear.

The information appears in the form of an
arrow on the instrument panel display.
In the case of driving which makes
particular demands on the perfor-
mance of the engine (fi rm pres-
sure on the accelerator pedal, for
example, when overtaking...), the
system will not recommend a gear
change.
The system never suggests:


- engaging fi rst gear,

- engaging reverse gear,

- engaging a lower gear.


- You press the accelerator pedal
moderately.

- The system may suggest that you
engage a higher gear, if appropriate.

AUTOMATIC GEARBOX
Four-speed automatic gearbox which
offers a choice between the comfort of
fully automatic operation, enhanced by
sport and snow programmes, or manual
gear changing.
Therefore, four driving modes are of-
fered:


- automatic
operation for electronic
management of the gears by the
gearbox,

- sport
programme for a more dy-
namic style of driving,

- snow
programme to improve driv-
ing when traction is poor,

- manual
operation for sequential
changing of the gears by the driver.

adaptive mode, without any intervention
on the part of the driver. It continuously
selects the most suitable gear accord-
