Unsuitable PRND Selection
If an unsuitable PRND request is
selected (such as selecting reverse
whilst the vehicle is moving forward in
drive or if the footbrake has not been
depressed), the current gear selected
will remain highlighted in the driver
display screen, a warning message is
displayed and the transmission will not
engage the gear requested.
Drive Selection in Manual Mode
Drive can also be selected from P, R
or N by depressing the footbrake and
holding the ‘+’ paddle shifter towards
the driver. Also see page 161.
The footbrake does not have to be
depressed if the vehicle is moving. Also
see page 160.
Kick-Down
With the transmission in automatic
mode, depressing the accelerator pedal
fully will downshift the transmission
into the lowest suitable gear. Once the
accelerator pedal is returned to
a normal driving position, the
transmission will up-shift to the highest
suitable gear. Kick-down operation will
vary according to road speed, current
gear in use and accelerator movement.
Transmission Warning Messages
This symbol will illuminate
accompanied by an explanatory
message in the driver’s display if a
fault has been detected within the
transmission system. Dependent
on the fault detected the vehicle
may default to a limited power
mode. If this occurs ensure to
adhere to the message displayed
(which may include stopping the
vehicle) and contact your Lotus
Retailer.
