When the ignition is on, a message appears   in   the   instrument   panel  
s

creen   to   indicate   a   gearbox   fault.
Operating fault
You risk damaging the gearbox:
- i f you press the accelerator and
brake
  pedals   at   the   same   time,
-
 
i
f   you   force   the   selector   from  
p

osition P to another position when
the
  battery   is   flat.
To
  reduce   fuel   consumption   when  
s

tationary   for   long   periods   with   the  
e

ngine   running   (traffic   jam...),   position  
t

he   gear   selector   at   N and apply the
parking
  brake,   unless   it   is   programmed  
i

n   automatic   mode.
In
 
this
 
case,
 
the
 
gearbox
 
switches
 
to
 
back-up
 
m

ode
 
and
 
is
 
locked
 
in
 
3rd
 
gear.
 
You
 
may
 
feel
 
a

 
substantial
 
knock
 
when
 
changing
 
from
 
P
to R
 
and
 
from
 
N to R .
 
This
 
will
 
not
 
cause
 
any
 
d

amage
 
to
 
the

Fitting
  a   battery   not   listed   by   CITROËN would
