Driving and Operating 145
Manual Gearbox
To engage reverse, depress the
clutch pedal and then engage the
reverse gear.If the gear does not engage, set the
lever to neutral, release the clutch
pedal and depress again; then
repeat gear selection.
Do not slip the clutch unnecessarily.
When operating, depress the clutch
pedal completely. Do not use the
pedal as a foot rest.
Caution
It is not advisable to drive with the
hand resting on the selector lever.
Brakes
The brake system comprises two
independent brake circuits.
If a brake circuit fails, the vehicle
can still be braked using the other
brake circuit. However, braking
effect is achieved only when the
brake pedal is depressed firmly.
Considerably more force is needed
for this. The braking distance is
extended. Seek the assistance of a
workshop before continuing your
journey.
When the engine is not running, the
support of the brake servo unit
disappears once the brake pedal
has been depressed once or twice.
Braking effect is not reduced, but
braking requires significantly greater
force. It is especially important to
bear this in mind when being towed.
