SELESPEED
TRANSMISSION
The car may be fitted with a mechanical
transmission with electronic control called
“Selespeed”.
The Selespeed considerably simplifies use
of the car, reducing the fatigue of city dri-
ving or when frequent gearshifting is re-
quired, at the same time offering brilliant
performance.
IMPORTANT
To be able to use the Se-
lespeed correctly, this chapter should be read
in full to understand the correct, permissible
operations to be carried out right from the
start.
This device comprises a conventional me-
chanical gearbox to which an electronical-
ly-operated electrohydraulic device has been
added which automatically controls the
clutch and gear engagement.
The clutch pedal has been eliminated and
the vehicle moves off using only the accel-
erator pedal.
Gearshifting takes place through the con-
trol lever (
A-fig. 96
) which is of the float-
ing type with a “single central stable posi-
tion”.
Using the lever it is possible to request an
increase/decrease of the gear ratio engaged
and/or reverse gear engagement (
R
) or
neutral (
N
).
There are also two stalks on the steering
wheel spokes (
fig. 97
) through which, on-
ly with the car on the move (with speed
above 2 km/h), it is possible to shift gear
up or down.
The gearbox can work in two operating
modes:
– the first is semiautomatic (
MANUAL
),
in which the driver directly requests gearshift-
ing through the lever on the centre console
or pressing the buttons at the steering
wheel;
– the second is automatic, called
CITY
,
in which the system decides directly when
to shift gear (mode selectable with the spe-
cific button
A-fig. 98
).
