GEAR LEVER
The fig. 116 lever has the following
positions:
P = Park
R = Reverse
N = Neutral
D = Drive, (automatic forward speed)
AutoStick : + shifting to higher gear
in sequential driving mode; – shifting to
lower gear in sequential driving mode.
To select the "sequential" mode, shift
the lever from D (Drive) towards the left.
The reachable positions are + (higher
gear) or - (lower gear). These positions
are unstable: the lever always returns to
central position.
The lever has a button 1 fig. 116, which
must be pressed to move it to the P or
R positions.
With the ignition key in the MAR
position, press the brake pedal and use
the button 1 fig. 116 to shift the
selector lever from P to any other
position.
Press the button 1 fig. 116 when the
engine is idling to shift from R to P.
To change from the N to D or from the
N to R positions, you need to press the
brake pedal and the button 1 on the
lever. It is advisable not to accelerate
and to make sure that the engine is
stabilised at idle speed.
Shifting from D to N is free, while button
1 fig. 116 must be pressed to pass
from D to R.
AUTOMATIC DRIVING
MODE
To select the automatic driving mode,
you need to shift the gear lever to D
(Drive): the best ratio is selected by the
electronic transmission control unit
depending on car speed, engine load
(accelerator pedal position) and
gradient of the road.
D can be selected from sequential
operation in any driving conditions.
“Kick-Down” function
To resume speed quickly, press the
accelerator pedal fully and the
transmission control system may shift
to one or more lower gears (Kick-down
function).
IMPORTANT When driving on roads
with poor grip conditions (snow, ice,
etc.), avoid activating the kick-down
operating mode.
AUTOSTICK - Sequential
mode
The Autostick mode (sequential shift), in
which the driver can decide when to
shift gear, is recommended in some
specific driving conditions, such as
when driving a heavily loaded car on a
gradient, in a strong headwind or when
towing a heavy trailer.
In these conditions, using a lower gear
improves vehicle performance and
prolongs the transmission's life, limiting
gearshifting and preventing overheating.
It is possible to shift from position D
(Drive) to the sequential mode
regardless of car speed.
