the floor area underneath the
pedal unit must not be obstructed
in any way. Ensure that the floor
mat is always laid flat and does
not interfere with use of the
pedals.

lead over time to premature wear
of the internal gearbox
components. The clutch pedal
should be used only for gear
changes. Do not drive with your
foot resting on the clutch pedal,
however lightly. For versions/
markets where provided, the
electronic clutch control could cut
