KNOWING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL

On some versions, with mode engaged,
the display shows "4WD LOW". The LED
on theSelec-Terrain™device may flash
until the end of the engagement.
4WD LOW mode release
The release can occur at any speed
ranging from 0 to 120 km/h.
On some versions, "4WD LOW" on the
display switches off at the end of the
release procedure.
In this case, the LED on the 4WD LOW
button is off.
IMPORTANT
51)The correct operation of the 4WD
function depends on the tyres: all of them
must have the same size, the same type
and the same circumference. Using tyres
with different sizes has negative effects on
the gear change and damages the
components of the transmission.
52)Do not drive at speeds exceeding those
that the road conditions allow for.
SELEC-TERRAIN
DRIVING MODE SELECTION
Turn knob A fig. 111 to select the
desired mode.
IMPORTANT Changing mode is not
possible when the vehicle speed is
over 120 km/h.
AUTO (Automatic): the 4WD mode with
continuous and automatic operation can
be used while driving on road and
off-road. This mode reduces fuel
consumption, because the propeller shaft
can be disconnected, whenever required.
SNOW: this mode can achieve more
stability on slippery or snow-covered
grounds. To be used for driving on-road
and off-road in the case of grounds with
poor grip, such as roads covered by snow.
SAND: off-road driving mode to be
used on surfaces with poor grip, such as
sandy surfaces. The transmission is set
to offer a maximum traction.
MUD: off-road driving mode for
surfaces with poor grip, such as
mud-covered grounds or wet grass.
ROCK(where provided, for Trailhawk
versions only): this mode is only available
if the 4WD LOW mode is activated. The
device sets the car to maximise traction
and give the highest steering capacity on
off-road surfaces featuring a high grip.
This mode guarantees the best "off-road"
performance. This mode must be used to
pass over obstacles at slow speed, such
as large rocks, deep cracks, etc.
When the engine is started, the AUTO
mode is automatically selected (LED on
close to the AUTO wording).
Turning the knob A fig. 111 the LED
close to the AUTO wording comes on
