MESSAGE
Press Brake Pedal Delayed Startup
Gear Not Available
Shift Not Allowed
Press Brake Pedal And Try Again
DESCRIPTION
This messages appears when the key is
first turned ON, if the brake is fault
and/or the shift lever is not in NEUTRAL
(N). The shift lever must be in the NEU-
TRAL (N) position, and the brake pedal
must be pressed, to allow engine crank-
ing. Place the shift lever in NEUTRAL (N)
and apply the brake pedal BEFORE turn-
ing the key to the START/AVV position;
otherwise, the engine will not crank and
the key must be cycled OFF, then back
on, before cranking is allowed.
This message appears, along with a warn-
ing buzzer:
• When it is not possible to change gear
due to a fault in the system.
• When, due a fault in the system, it is
only possible to engage 1st (1), 2nd
(2), 3rd (3) or reverse (R).
Contact your authorized dealer if the mes-
sage continues to appear.
This message appears, together with a
warning buzzer, when the system will not
allow a gear change requested by the
driver (for example, that would cause en-
gine overspeed or transmission damage).
This message may also appear when
starting the engine at low temperature. In
this case the Automated Manual trans-
mission isn't able to engage first gear, in
this situation either use the engine block
heater or allow the engine to idle in NEU-
TRAL (N) until the transmission has
warmed.
This message appears accompanied, in
some cases, by a warning buzzer, if you
attempt to change gear with the vehicle
parked without pressing the brake pedal.
To shift the transmission (with key on/
engine off), press and hold the brake
pedal, move the shift lever to NEUTRAL
(N), then move the shift lever to the de-
sired position.
