GEAR USE
To engage the gears, press down the
clutch and put the gear lever into one
of the positions shown in the diagram
(fig. 2) (the diagram is also on the
gear lever knob).
To engage reverse ( R ), wait for the
car to come to a standstill. From neu-
tral, lift the sliding ring
A (fig. 2) un-
der the knob and shift the lever to the
right and backwards at the same
time.
IMPORTANT The reverse gear can
only be engaged when the car is sta-
tionary. With the engine running wait
for at least 2 seconds with the clutch
fully down before engaging the re-
verse gear to avoid grating the gears
and damaging them.

To change gear properly
you must push the clutch
pedal fully down. It is
therefore essential that there is
nothing under the pedals: make
sure mats are lying flat and do not
get in the way of the pedals.
Do not drive with your
hand resting on the gear
lever. Although the force
you exert by doing this is very
slight, it will, in the long run, wear
out the components inside the
gearbox.
