To ensure the safety of your child,
it is essential to disarm the pas-

When the vehicle is being
driven, illumination of this
warning light and of the STOP
warning light, accompanied
by an audible signal and a message
on the multifunction display, indicates
that the handbrake is still on or has
not been properly released.
When parking on a slope, di-
rect your wheels to immobilise
them against the pavement,
pull the handbrake and engage
a gear.
"2 TRONIC" GEARBOX
T h e fi v e - s p e e d c o n t r o l l e d m a n u a l
gearbox offers a choice between the
comfort of automatic regulation or the
pleasure of manual gear changing.
HANDBRAKE
Gear lever positions
N : neutral.
With your foot on the brake, select
this position to start.
R
: reverse gear.
With the vehicle stationary, keep your
foot on the brake pedal and push the
gear lever upwards.
Selection of reverse gear is accom-
panied by an audible signal.
A
: automated mode.
Move the lever downwards to select
this mode.
M +/-: sequential mode with manual
gear changing.
Applying
Pull the handbrake to immobilise
your vehicle.
It consists of the following controls:
- a gear lever 1 on the centre
console for selecting the driving
mode, reverse gear and neutral
or for changing gear in sequential
mode,
- a "-" steering wheel control 2
for sequential downward gear
changes,
- a "+" steering wheel control 3 for
sequential upward gear changes.
Releasing
Pull on the handle and press the
button to release the handbrake.
This gearbox enables you to access
two driving modes:
- an automated mode for automatic
control of the gears by the gear-
box and therefore without any
action on the part of the driver,
- a sequential mode for manual changing of the gears by the
driver using the steering wheel
controls or the gear lever.
Move the lever downwards, then to
the left to select this mode, then:
- push forward to change up,
- push rearward to change down.

This gearbox enables you to access
two driving modes:

driver using the steering wheel
controls or the gear lever.
Move the lever downwards, then to
the left to select this mode, then:
- push forward to change up,
