-
t
h
e system may suggest that you engage
a higher gear.
Depending on the driving situation and your
vehicle's equipment, the system may advise
you to change gear.
the

gear engagement recommendations must
not be considered compulsory. In fact, the
configuration of the road, the amount of traffic
and safety remain determining factors when
choosing the best gear.
t
her

efore, the driver
remains responsible for deciding whether or not
to follow the advice given by the system.
th

is function cannot be deactivated.
th
e information appears in the
instrument panel in the form of an
ar row.
th

e system adapts its gear change
recommendation according to the
driving conditions (slope, load,
...) and
the demands of the driver (power,
acceleration, braking,


...).
th

ngaging first gear,
-
