The information display shows the position of
the gear selector using the following indica-
tions:
P , R , N , D , 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 or 6 , see
page 53.
P – Parking position
Select position P when you wish to start the
engine or park the car.
IMPORTANT
The car must be stationary when position
P is selected.
NOTE
The brake pedal must be depressed in order
to be able to disengage the gear lever from
the
P position.
The gearbox is mechanically blocked when
the
P position is engaged. Always apply the
parking brake when parking the car.
R – Reverse
The car must be stationary when position R is
selected.
N – Neutral
No gear is engaged and the engine can be
started. Apply the parking brake when the car
is stationary with the gear selector in posi-
tion
N .
NOTE
The brake pedal must be depressed in order
to be able to disengage the gear lever from
the
N position if the car has been stationary
for more than 3 seconds.
D – Drive
D is the normal driving position. The car auto-
matically shifts up and down depending on the
level of acceleration and speed. The car must
be stationary when the gear selector is moved
to position
D from position R .
Geartronic manual gear positions (+/-)
The driver can also change gear manually
using the Geartronic automatic gearbox. The
car engine-brakes when the accelerator pedal
is released.
Manual gearshift mode is obtained by moving
the lever to the side from position
D to the end
position at + / – . The information display shifts
the indication from D to one of the figures 1 –
6 , which is equivalent to the gear that is
engaged just then, see page 53.

a level suitable for the selected gear, in order
to avoid jerking and stalling.

tion at
