WARNING: Some conditions will
always remain automatically
controlled, for example, when the
engine is overrevving or underrevving,
the system automatically engages a
higher or lower gear.
WARNING: If you request a gearshift
in conditions where the engine is
overrevving or underrevving, the
system will not accept the command.
WARNING: The ECU is programmed
to control one gearshift at a time,
therefore, fast and repeated actions
will not necessarily result in a
gearshift. A higher or lower gear
is engaged only if the previous
procedure requested has been
completed.
When the system refuses to engage a
gear, an acoustic signal will sound for
a few seconds.
Sequential manual operation can
only be selected from the
D position,
whatever the function ( SPORT ,
NORMAL ) active at the time of the
request.
The gear selected by the automatic
gearbox will remain engaged when
the lever
A is moved.
Moving the lever back to D , automatic
operation will instantly be resumed,
and a gear will be engaged based on
the driving style and mode selected.
In the event of a failure of the
sequential manual gearshift system,
the gearbox ECU will select automatic
operation.
Other system functions
The settings automatically selected by
the system operate in three modes:
-
NORMAL
- SPORT
- ICE (Low Grip).
Activate the desired mode by pressing
the relative button.
The active mode is shown on the
instrument panel display.
For each mode there are various
vehicle settings, that are automatically
set by the system in relation to
the traveling speed, engine RPM,
accelerator position, speed with which
the pedal is depressed as well as the
traveling conditions (e.g., uphill,
downhill, curves).
NORMAL
This mode is intended specifically
for comfortable and fuel-economy
driving (low longitudinal and lateral
acceleration); the gears are shifted
with minimum vibration in lowest
noise (gears are shifted at low engine
speeds).
