SEQUENTIAL GEARBOX (1/6)
Selector lever 1
– This allows you to shift directly from first gear to reverse gear, to select
reverse gear and neutral and to
change gear in manual mode.
– It also allows you to switch between manual and automatic modes at
any time, with the engine switched
on and reverse gear engaged, by
moving the lever to the left.
Note: the selector lever automatically
returns to the middle position after use.

SEQUENTIAL GEARBOX (2/6)
Starting
Moving forwards (starting in neutral)
The display indicates gears N and A.
– With the brake pedal depressed, push the selector lever forwards then
release it.
– Release the brake pedal and accel- erate gently to move forwards. Reverse gear
(vehicle stationary)
– Brake pedal depressed. Push the
selector lever towards the right and
to the rear as shown on the base
of the lever, and then release it.
Reverse gear is engaged and the
letter R appears on the display.
– Release the brake pedal: – the engine’s idle speed is suffi-
cient for parking manoeuvres;
– accelerate gently to reverse.
You may shift from reverse gear to a
forwards gear by pushing the lever for-
wards once the vehicle is stationary.
Note: when the vehicle is stationary,
you must depress the brake pedal to
engage or disengage a gear. Otherwise,
warning light 5 will come on.

Exactly like a vehicle equipped with a manual gearbox, a vehicle equippe\
d
with a sequential gearbox is unable to prevent the vehicle from rolling \
on
a slope if the handbrake is not applied or the brake pedal constantly de\
-
pressed.

SEQUENTIAL GEARBOX (3/6)
Operation in semiautomatic
mode (manual)
This mode can be activated at any time
when driving by pushing the lever to the
left. The mode is switched without shift-
ing up a gear.
You can initiate gear changes using the
selector lever.
To shift up a gear, push the selector
lever forwards; the accelerator pedal
does not have to be lifted.
To shift down a gear, push the selector
lever backwards; the accelerator pedal
does not have to be lifted. The system will not tolerate a series
of up or down changes that cause the
engine to underrev or overrev.
By pushing the lever forwards twice
you can move up two gears at a time
(except if underrevving). By pushing
the lever backwards twice you can
move down two gears at a time (unless
this causes overrevving).
When decelerating with the foot off
the pedal, the gears will automatically
drop to the low engine speed limit to
avoid stalling. First gear automatically
shifts below a certain speed limit. You
can stop the vehicle at red lights or
junctions etc. by depressing the brake
pedal; there is no need to change to
neutral (N).
The vehicle will move off again:
– either slowly, if you release the brake
without accelerating (e.g. when in a
traffic jam),
– or quickly, if you release the brake and accelerate.
Note: neutral may only be selected
when the vehicle is being driven or is
stationary when the brake pedal is
depressed (if you forget, warning
light 5 will light up).
Push the gear selector lever to the right
to engage neutral.
If the engine speed is too high or too
low, the system will choose the opti-
mum gear.
Semiautomatic mode can be deacti-
vated and reactivated at any time when
the engine is running by pushing the
lever to the left.

SEQUENTIAL GEARBOX (6/6)
Bleep
– If you hold the vehicle on a slope for too long without applying the
brakes or handbrake, you will strain
the system (risk of overheating the
clutch).
In this case, an intermittent beep-
ing sound will remind you that you
should put your foot on the brake
pedal or apply the handbrake.
– Never leave the vehicle with the engine running when in gear. For
safety reasons you will hear an in-
termittent beeping sound when you
open the door if you have not shifted
into neutral or you have not switched
off the ignition or depressed the
brake pedal.
Operating faults
i
If this warning light comes on
when the vehicle is in motion , it
indicates a fault in the system. In most
cases, you may still drive the vehicle,
although it will not function perfectly.
Contact an approved dealer as soon as
possible.
Towing a vehicle with a sequential
gearbox
If the gearbox is stuck in a gear:
– switch on the ignition;
– select neutral with the brake pedal
depressed;
– check that the gearbox is in neutral (by pushing the vehicle, for exam-
ple).
If you cannot find neutral you must tow
the vehicle with the front wheels raised.
The vehicle should always be towed
with the ignition switched off.

ENGINE OIL LEVEL: general information (1/2)
If the level is at the minimum
The “TOP-UP OIL LEVEL” message
and warning light
© are displayed
on the instrument panel.
It is vital to top up the oil as soon as
possible.
The display only warns the
driver if the oil level is at the
minimum level. It does not
inform the driver that the oil
level has exceeded the maximum
level as this can only be measured
using a dipstick.
It is normal for an engine to use oil for
lubrication and cooling of moving parts
and it is normal to top up the level be-
tween oil changes.
However, contact an approved Dealer
if more than 0.5 litres is being consu-
med every 600 miles (1,000 km) after
the running in period.
Oil change frequency: check the oil
level from time to time and certainly
before any long journey to avoid the
risk of damaging your engine.
Reading the oil level
The oil level should be read with the
vehicle on level ground, after the engine
has been switched off for some time.
The dipstick must be used to read
the exact oil level and make sure
that the maximum level has not been
exceeded (risk of engine damage).
Refer to the following pages.
The instrument panel display only
alerts the driver when the oil level is at
its minimum.

If the level is above the minimum
level
The “OIL LEVEL” message appears on
the display, accompanied by squares
indicating the level. These squares di-
sappear as the level drops and they are
replaced by dashes.
To switch to trip computer reading,
press button 1 or 2 again.

LEVELS (1/3)
Brake fluid
This should be checked frequently,
and immediately if you notice even the
slightest loss in braking efficiency.
The level should be read with the engine
switched off and on level ground. Level 1
It is normal for the level to drop as
the linings become worn, but it should
never drop below the
“MIN” warning
line.
If you wish to check the disc and drum
wear yourself, you should obtain the
document explaining the checking pro-
cedure from our network or from the
manufacturer’s website.
Filling
After any operation on the hydraulic cir-
cuit, a specialist must replace the fluid.
Only use fluids approved by our
Technical Department (and taken from
a sealed container).
Replacement intervals
Refer to the Maintenance Document for
your vehicle.
Consult your approved dealer at
once if you notice an abnormal or
repeated drop in any of the fluid
levels.

Filters
The filter elements (air filter, diesel filter,
etc.) should be replaced during the
maintenance operations carried out on
your vehicle.
Replacement intervals for filter el-
ements: refer to the Maintenance
Document for your vehicle.
On equipped vehicles, if warning light 7
turns red, it indicates that the air filter
is clogged.
Consult your approved dealer as soon
as possible.

Level: the correct level when cold,
with the engine switched off and on
level ground, should be visible between
the “MIN” and “MAX“ levels on reser-
voir 5.
For topping up or refilling with oil, use
products approved by our Technical
Department.

TYRE PRESSURE (1/2)
Label A
Open the driver’s door to read it.
Tyre pressures should be checked
when the tyres are cold.
If the tyre pressures cannot be checked
when the tyres are cold, increase the
pressures from 0.2 to 0.3 bar (or 3 PSI).
Never deflate a hot tyre.
A
Vehicle fitted with a tyre pressure
loss warning system
If underinflated (puncture, low pres-
sure, etc.), the warning light
 on
the instrument panel comes on, see
“Tyre pressure loss warning system” in
Section 2.
For your safety, please re-
spect the speed limit.
When they need to be re-
placed, only tyres of the
same make, size, type and profile
should be used on a single axle.
They must: either have a load ca-
pacity and speed rating at least
equal to those of the original
tyres, or conform to those recom-
mended by an authorised dealer.
Failure to heed these instructions
could endanger your safety and
affect your vehicle’s roadworthi-
ness.
Risk of loss of control of the ve-
hicle.
