There is a risk of damage to the gearbox:
- i f you press the accelerator and
brake
pedals at the same time,
-
i
f you force the movement of the
g
ear lever from the P position to
another position when the battery
is
flat.
To
reduce fuel consumption when at
a
prolonged standstill with the engine
r
unning (traffic jam...), put the gear lever in

Manual operation
When the ignition is on, the lighting o f this warning lamp, accompanied

In
this
case, the gearbox switches to back-up

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 gearbox.
