Model 190 2.6
with vehicle speeds below 31 mph
(50 km/h) at partial throttle and
engine tempertures below 95” F
(35°C).
Important!
Do not exceed the vehicle speed
limits for individual gear selec-
tions, which are indicated by
marks (I, II, III etc.) on the circum-
ference of the speedometer.
Do not downshift to a lower gear
(for example from to “3”)
unless the speedometer needle is
below the speed limit mark of that
particular gear range. Overrevving
could result in serious damage to
the engine.
Warning!
On slippery road surfaces,
never downshift in order to
obtain braking action. This
could result in rear wheel slip
and reduced vehicle control.
Your vehicle’s ABS will not
prevent this type of loss of
control.
To prevent the engine from labo-
ring at low RPM, do not allow the
engine speed to drop too low on
uphill gradients.
Depending on the degree of the
incline, shift selector lever to po-
sition
or “2” early enough to
maintain engine RPM within the
best torque range.
Maneuvering
To maneuver in tight areas, e. g.
when pulling into a parking space,
control the car speed by gradually
releasing the brakes. Accelerate
gently and never abruptly step on
the accelerator.
To rock a car out of soft ground
(mud or snow), alternately shift
from forward to reverse while
applying partial throttle.
Rocking a car free in this manner
may cause the
warning lamp
to come on. Turn off and restart
the engine to clear the malfunction
indication.
Stopping
For brief stops, e.g. at traffic lights,
leave the transmission in gear and
control vehicle with the service
brake.
For longer stops with the engine
idling, shift into “N” or
When stopping the car on an
incline, do not hold it with the
accelerator, use the brake. This
avoids unnecessary transmission
heat build up.
Warning!
Getting out of your car with
the selector lever not fully
engaged in position
is
dangerous. When parked on
a steep incline, position
alone may not prevent your
vehicle from moving, possibly
hitting people or objects.
Always set the parking brake
in addition to shifting to
position
When parked on an incline,
also turn front wheel against
curb.
