When reverse gear is engaged, an acoustic
safety signal beeps intermittently for the entire
time that R remains engaged.
If in shifting from R to 1st gear, the system
automatically engages the 2nd gear, which
may mean that the 1st gear has jammed.
This is not a malfunction, but part of the
system operating logic. For the same reason,
when shifting from
1st
gear to
R
, the
system will automatically engage N if the
gear is jammed.
If the vehicle remains stationary for long
periods of time with the engine running, it
is advisable to keep the gearshift in N .
If you allow the vehicle to move forward in
N (e.g., on downhill stretches), when UP is
requested, the system will engage a gear in
relation to the vehicle speed.
For safety reasons, the system activates the
buzzer and automatically shifts to N when
you do any of the following with the vehicle
stationary, the engine running and a gear
engaged:
• not push the brake pedal or the
accelerator for more than 50 seconds;
• push the brake pedal for more than 10
minutes;
• open the door without pushing the brake
pedal or the accelerator;
• open the engine compartment lid.
The buzzer may also sound to warn
the driver that the clutch is starting
to overheat. This may occur when using
Gear shifting will be increasingly faster as
the performance requested by the driver
increases, i.e., as both the engine RPM and
the travel of the accelerator pedal increase.
In any event, it is advisable to:
• Shift gears without releasing the
accelerator pedal.
• Wait until one gearshift has been
completed before requesting the next
one, thereby avoiding multiple requests
in rapid succession.
Downshifting
Operate the left-hand DOWN lever without
releasing the accelerator pedal.
A
downshift request is not accepted if
engagement of the requested gear will
force the engine beyond a certain speed,
depending on the gear requested, or if a
downshift
is already in progress due to a
low engine RPM.
In any case, it is best to
• Shift gears without releasing the
accelerator pedal.
• If a downshift is requested in order to
start overtaking, where rapid acceleration
is required, push the accelerator pedal
just before moving the lever.
• Wait until one gearshift has been
completed before requesting the next
one, thereby avoiding multiple requests
in rapid succession.
the accelerator pedal when the vehicle is
stopped on a hill or during the “pick-up”
maneuver.
In these cases, release the accelerator pedal
and use only the brake pedal to stop the
vehicle.
Important
• When the vehicle is stationary with a gear
engaged, always hold the brake pedal
down until you are ready to leave.
• Do not “rev the engine” using the
accelerator pedal when you start off.
• Request reverse gear only when the
vehicle has completely stopped and with
the brake pedal pushed.
If the vehicle is stopped on an uphill stretch,
do not use the “pick-up maneuver” to keep
the vehicle stationary but only the brake, and
push the accelerator pedal only when you are
ready to leave.
If the accelerator pedal is depressed rapidly
with the CST system off, the vehicle will
do a “performance” start with considerable
skidding of the driving wheels, even in
good grip conditions.
Upshifting
Operate the right-hand
UP
lever without
releasing the accelerator pedal.
An
upshift request is not accepted when
engagement of the requested gear will
force the engine to run at low speed or if an
upshift is already in progress due to engine
over revving.
