Driving
The mode cannot be changed if the vehicle is in motion.
With a manual gearbox, depress and hold
the clutch pedal to change the mode.
There is a risk of damaging the
transfer box!
While the indicator lamp for the selected
mode is flashing on the instrument panel:
– Do not accelerate.
– Do not release the clutch pedal with a
manual gearbox.
– Do not engage a gear with an automatic
gearbox.
Recommendations
On dry, tarmac or high-speed roads,
mainly use the 2H mode.
In 4L mode, avoid driving at a speed above
25 mph (40 km/h) and stay in a straight line.
Driving in 4H or 4L mode:
– on dry or tarmac road can cause oil
leakage, and seizure or malfunctions of the
transmission - risk of accident or serious
damage!
– on hard roads increases tyre wear and fuel
consumption.
Do not turn the selector suddenly from the 2L
position to 4H or 4L - risk of loss of control of
the vehicle!
Never change from 2H to 4H mode when the
wheels are spinning or skidding.
Mode suitable for normal driving on dry roads
with hard surface; provides economical, quiet
driving and reduces tyre wear.
4H mode: 4-wheel drive at high speed
Mode to be used only for driving on tracks where
the wheels may slip (off-road or on icy, snowy
roads, for example); provides stronger grip than
the 2-wheel drive transmission
mode (2H mode).
4L mode: 4-wheel drive at low speed
Mode to be used for maximum power and
traction; allows you to climb or descend steep
off-road slopes and benefits from maximum
traction (in sand, mud or in a thick layer of snow,
for example).
Associated indicator lamps

Driving
6Automatic operation
► Select position D for automatic changing of
the six gears.
The gearbox then operates in auto-adaptive
mode, without any intervention on the part of the
driver. It continuously selects the most suitable
gear according to the driving style, the road
profile and the load in the vehicle.
For maximum acceleration without touching the
selector, press the accelerator fully down (kick-
down). The gearbox changes down automatically
or holds the gear selected until the maximum
engine speed is reached.
When braking, the gearbox changes down
automatically to provide effective engine braking.
If you release the accelerator sharply, the
gearbox will not shift to a higher gear for safety
reasons.
Never select position N while the vehicle
is moving.
Never select positions P or R unless the
vehicle is completely stationary.
Manual operation
To limit fuel consumption during an extended standstill with the engine
running (for example, in a traffic jam), set the
gear selector to N and apply the parking
brake.
► Selecting position +/- enables sequential
shifting between the six gears.
►

T
o shift up/down through the gears, push the
control forwards/backwards.
The gearbox only changes gear if the vehicle
speed and engine speed conditions allow;
otherwise, the rules for automatic operation are
temporarily applied.
D disappears, and the gears engaged appear in
succession on the instrument panel.
If the engine speed is too low or too high, the
selected gear flashes for a few seconds, then the
gear actually engaged is shown.
It is possible to change from position D to
position +/-
at any time.
When the vehicle is stationary or moving very
slowly, the gearbox selects gear 1 automatically.
This symbol is displayed if a gear is not
engaged correctly (gear selector between
two positions).
Switching off the vehicle
Before switching off the engine, it is possible to
engage position P or N to place the gearbox in
neutral.
In both cases, apply the parking brake to
immobilise the vehicle.
If the gear selector is not in position P,
when the driver's door is opened or
approximately 45 seconds after the ignition is
switched off, an audible signal sounds and a
message appears.
►

Return the gear selector to P

; the audible
signal stops and the message disappears.
