GEAR LEVER
The gear lever (A) is located on the dashboard and it is of the floating
“multi-stable position” type, i.e.: it features three stable positions and
three unstable ones.
The three stable positions correspond to neutral (N), reverse (R) and
central position set between the unstable positions UP (+) and DOWN
(–) (see figure).
Unstable positions (i.e.: positions abandoned as soon as the gear lever is
released), are the upshifting position UP (+), the downshifting position
DOWN (–) and the automatic mode position (A/M).
To return to manual mode, set the gear lever back to A/M.
With the car stationary and the key removed, it is possible to shift the
lever with/without the brake pedal pressed. The system will perform no
actuation when shifting the lever and the gear engaged will be the one
stored before removing the ignition key.
IMPORTANT With the engine off and the car stationary, any error
between lever position and gear engaged is indicated by warning light (è)
coming on for a few seconds on the instrument panel together with the
message on the reconfigurable multifunction display.

STARTING THE ENGINE
The engine can be started either with a gear engaged or in neutral (N),
always press the brake pedal first.
After starting:
❒the gearbox sets to neutral (N) automatically
❒lever (A) keeps the same position it had before starting
❒the reconfigurable multifunction display shows (N) and a buzzer will
indicate if the lever position and the gear engaged are not matching
❒gears that can be engaged are: 1st, 2nd or reverse (R) gear.
IMPORTANT When trying to start the engine with gearbox not in
neutral (any gearshift lever position other than N) and without pressing
the brake pedal, the reconfigurable multifunction display will show a
dedicated message (see paragraph “Warning lights and messages”). In this
event, to start the engine just repeat operation keeping the brake pedal
pressed.

If the engine fails to start with the gear engaged, the driver is informed of the
potentially dangerous situation due to the fact that the gearbox is in neutral by
the buzzer.IMPORTANT
