this gearbox has two driving modes:
- a n automated mode for automatic control
of the gears by the gearbox and therefore
without any action on the part of the driver,
-
a

manual mode for sequential changing of
the gears by the driver using the steering
mounted controls or the gear lever.
CVt gearbox
It includes the following controls:
- a g ear lever 1 on the centre console for
selecting the driving mode, reverse gear
and neutral or for changing gear in manual
mode, -
a
"-" steering mounted control paddle 2 for
manual downward gear changes,
-
a "+/OFF" steering mounted control
paddle


3 for manual upward gear changes.
th

e six-speed automatic gearbox offers a choice between the comfort of automatic regulation or the pleasure of manual gear changing.th
e mode can be changed at any time.

Stopping - Starting on a slope
It is essential to use the parking brake to
hold the vehicle on a slope and not the
accelerator pedal.
When starting on a slope, accelerate gradually
while releasing the parking brake.
Manual mode
F Select position +/-.
F us e the steering mounted controls or the
gear lever to change gear.
th

e gears engaged appear in succession in the
instrument panel screen.
th

e gear change instructions are only carried
out if the engine speed permits it.
You can change gear without taking your foot
off the accelerator pedal.
When decelerating, the gearbox changes down
automatically.
With the vehicle stationary, first gear is
engaged.
Automated mode
F Select position D .
"D" appears in the instrument panel screen.
th

e gearbox operates in auto-active mode,
without any action on the part of the driver.
It continuously selects the gear most suited to
the conditions of:
-

d
riving style,
-
r

oad characteristics,
-

v
ehicle load.
to o

ptimise driving comfort and obtain the most
suitable gear, avoid sharp variations in the
pressure on the accelerator pedal.
For the best acceleration, when
overtaking another vehicle, for example,
press firmly on the accelerator going
beyond the point of resistance.

Manual gear changing
In the automated mode, you can take over
control temporarily at any time using the
steering mounted controls.
th
e use of these controls permits manual
selection of the gears in situations which
require a faster change down than that offered
in automated mode (arrival at a roundabout,
exit from a car park with a steep gradient,
over taking...).
th

e gearbox engages the gear requested if
the engine speed permits it.

to r

eturn to the automated mode, do one of the
following:
-

p

position +/- and then return it to position D ,
-

s
top the vehicle.
Stopping the vehicle Operating fault
With the ignition on, if the message
"Slow

engine temperature, braking assistance,
ambient temperature...) where the engine is
needed to assure control of a system,
-
the "AS &G" warning lamp is
flashing in the instrument panel.
This operation is perfectly normal.
th

the repair or replacement of tyres, the
sensor identifiers must be registered in

Reinitialising the reference
pressure
Before reinitialising the system, ensure
that the pressures in the four tyres are
suitable for the conditions of use of the
vehicle and as specified on the tyre
pressure label.
th

cannot warn of an incorrect pressure at
the time of reinitialisation.
th

the vehicle speed must be at least 25 mph
(40 km/h) and second gear or higher must be
engaged in the case of a manual gearbox.
th

an action on the brake or clutch pedal or if the
ASC system is triggered.
th
