neutral automatically.
The gear lever stays in the position selected
before switching off the ignition.
"N"
appears in the instrument panel screen,
accompanied by an audible signal when you
release the brake pedal, to indicate that there
is a difference between the position of the gear
lever and the gear selected in the gearbox.

)
or reverse (position R
).

appears in the instrument panel
screen.
Release the parking brake.
Remove your foot from the brake pedal and
then accelerate away.
The AUTO or sequential mode used
before switching off the ignition remains
in memory when the vehicle is restarted.
Stopping - Starting on a slope
This gearbox is electronically controlled and
does not have a clutch pedal.
Do not use the accelerator pedal to
hold
the vehicle on a slope, apply the parking
brake instead; failure to follow this
procedure can overheat the clutch and
damage the gearbox
.
When moving off on a slope, accelerate
gradually while releasing the parking brake.
It is also possible to move off in 2
nd
gear on slippery surfaces (2 nd press
on +).
Automated mode
Once you have moved off, you can switch to
automated mode by selecting position A/M
.

and the gear engaged
appear in the instrument panel
screen.
The gearbox then operates in auto-active
mode, without any action on the part of the
driver.
It continuously selects the most appropriate
gear depending on the:
- vehicle speed,
- engine speed,
- accelerator pedal position.
To optimise driving comfort and obtain the
most suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in
the pressure on the accelerator pedal.
If you fully depress the accelerator pedal,
the gearbox changes down for sharper
acceleration. By rapidly pushing the accelerator fully
down, the vehicle moves off quickly.
