USING THE MANUAL GEARBOX
To engage the gears, depress the clutch pedal fully and
shift the gear lever into the required positions (the
diagram is shown on the gear knob fig. 155).
To engage 6
thgear (where provided), operate the lever
by pressing it towards the right in order to avoid
engaging 4
thgear by mistake. The same applies to the
shift from 6thto 5thgear.
IMPORTANT Reverse may only be engaged when the
vehicle is at a standstill. With the engine running, wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully pressed
before engaging reverse to prevent damage to the gears
and grating.
To engage reverse R from neutral, proceed as follows:
raise ring A under the knob and at the same time move
the gear lever to the right and then backwards.
Press the clutch pedal fully to change
gears correctly. For this reason, there
must be no obstacles on the floor under the
pedals: ensure that rubber mats (if any) are
lying flat and do not interfere with the pedals.
WARNING
Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever, because this pressure, even
if light, over time can wear out the
internal gearbox components.
