WARNING The clutch pedal should
be used only for gear changes. Do
not drive with your foot resting on
the clutch pedal, however lightly.
Where present, the electronic clutch
control could cut in by interpreting the
incorrect driving style as a fault.
WARNING
121) Press the clutch pedal fully to shift
gears correctly. It is therefore essential that
there is nothing under the pedals: make
sure the mats are lying flat and do not get
in the way of the pedals.
IMPORTANT
23) Do not drive with your hand resting on
the gear lever as the force exerted, even if
slight, could lead over time to premature
wear of the gearbox internal components.
USING THE
ROBOTISED
SEQUENTIAL
TRANSMISSION
(where provided)
The car can be equipped with an
electronically controlled manual
transmission that allows two operating
modes: “MANUAL” and “AUTO”.

AB0A0334C
With key extracted from the ignition
device, the buttons on the transmission
panel fig. 93 can be pressed with or
without the brake pedal depressed.
When the buttons are pressed, the
system will not perform any activation,
therefore the gear engaged before
engine switching off remains engaged.
With the car stationary and the key
at MAR (ignition-operated electrical
services on), the screen displays the
engaged gear and the active operating
mode (automatic = AUTO or manual =
no display).
STARTING THE CAR
NOTES
On starting, the system sets itself to
AUTO mode.
Using the 1, N, R buttons with the
brake pedal pressed, 1st gear, neutral
(N) or reverse (R) can be engaged.
Using the 1, N, R buttons without
pressing the brake pedal, the system
does not change gear.
The levers on the steering wheel will
not engage any gear, even with the
brake pedal pressed.
OPERATING MODE
The transmission/transmission can
function in two operating modes:
the first is manual (MANUAL). In this
mode the driver decides directly when
to shift, using the "+” fig. 94 lever on
the steering wheel to shift up, or the "

"
to shift down. If the request is accepted
by the system, when the gear change
is completed, the display shows the
new gear engaged.
NOTE The system shows the gear
actually engaged on the display and
not the gear requested by the driver.
If the request is not accepted by the
system, the display shows the gear
engaged before the request and emits
an acoustic signal. If the gear change
