Stopping the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, you can
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle, unless it is programmed
to automatic mode.
Operating fault
When the ignition is on, a message
appears in the instrument panel
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
gear selected flashes for a few seconds, then
the actual gear engaged is displayed.
It is possible to change from position D
(automatic) to position M (manual) at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving
very slowly, the gearbox selects gear M1
automatically.

Brightness adjustment
We recommend that adjustments are
made using these buttons only when
the vehicle is stationary.
When stationary or while driving, no
objects should be placed around the
blade (or in its recess) so as to not
impede deployment of the blade and its
correct operation.

(rain and/or snow, bright sunshine, ...)
the head-up display may not be legible
or may suffer temporary interference.
Some sunglasses may hamper reading
of the information.

Speed limiter
System which prevents the vehicle from
exceeding the speed programmed by the
driver.
When the programmed speed limit is reached,
pressing the accelerator pedal no longer
has any effect unless it is pressed firmly,
which allows you to temporarily exceed the
programmed speed.
to r
eturn to the programmed speed, simply
slow down to a speed below the programmed
speed by releasing the accelerator.
th

e speed limiter is switched on manually:
it requires a programmed speed of at least
20
mph (30 km/h).
th

e speed limiter is switched off by manual
operation of the control.
th

e programmed speed remains in the memory
when the ignition is switched off.
th

e speed limiter cannot, in any
circumstances, replace the need to
observe speed limits, nor can it replace
the need for vigilance and responsibility
on the part of the driver.

is information also appears in the
