Manual gearbox
Gearshift pattern 5-speed gearbox.
Gearshift pattern 6-speed gearbox.
The 6-speed box is available in two versions -
reverse gear position differs between them.
Look at the actual gearshift pattern imprinted
on the gear lever.
•
Depress the clutch pedal fully during each
gear change.
•
Take your foot off the clutch pedal between
gear changes.
WARNING
Get into the habit of always applying the
parking brake when parking on a slope - an
engaged gear is not sufficient to hold the car
in all situations.
Reverse gear inhibitor
The reverse gear inhibitor hinders the possibil-
ity of mistakenly attempting to engage reverse
gear during normal forward travel.
•
Start from neutral position N and only
engage reverse gear R when the car is sta-
tionary.
NOTE
With the upper variant of the shifting pattern
for 6-speed gearbox (see previous illustra-
tion) -
first press down the gear lever in the
N position in order to engage reverse gear.
Automatic gearbox Geartronic*
D : Automatic gear positions. M ( + / – ): Manual gear

The information display shows the position of
the gear selector using the following indica-
tions:
P , R , N , D , S , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 or 6 , see
page 69.
Gear positions
Parking position (P)
Select P when starting the engine or when the
car is parked. The brake pedal must be
depressed to disengage the gear selector from
the
P position.
The gearbox is mechanically blocked when the
P position is engaged. Apply the parking brake
as well, as a precaution - see page 132.
