Robotised gearbox - engagement of Neutral

The procedure for putting the robotised gearbox in neutral in an
emergency is listed below.
IMPORTANT:
Check that the parking brake is engaged.
When the ignition key is turned to MAR-ON the "robotised gearbox"
system automatically shifts the gearbox to neutral and then, with
brake pedal pressed, enables engine starting.
A persistent acoustic and visual (display) signal might occur if the
command has been sent but the gearbox has not been
automatically shifted to neutral, and therefore remains engaged.
In this case do not tow the vehicle for any reason. To move it, lift the
front wheels.
With the door open the time for shifting to neutral is delayed with
respect to normal operation.
Procedure for jump starting
• supply the vehicle with a charged emergency battery;
• check that the vehicle system is supplied. The panel lights must
not be dimmed nor fade further on;
• pressing the brake pedal, turn the key to MAR-ON;
• wait for five seconds and turn the key to STOP;
• check that the vehicle is in neutral by pushing it.
