Manual sequential programme
This function enables manual sequential
use of the gearbox merely moving the se-
lector lever to the left.
To avoid overevving or excessively low
engine rpm, the control unit inhibits re-
quests for gearshifting that would cause
such situations.
Winter driving programme
(only 3.0 V6 24V version)
This programme engages automatically
if a driving wheel skids and it changes to
specific gears. Starting is possible only in
2nd gear.

Engine heating programme
(only 3.0 V6 24V version)
This programme allows the engine to
reach normal operating temperature in
the shortest time possible (depending on
the outside temperature) highering the
gearshifting points in relation to engine
temperature.
The programme engages automatically
after starting, if the engine temperature is
below 30°C and it remains active up to
34°C.
High gearbox oil temperature
safety programme
This is activated when the gearbox oil
reaches high temperature.
To facilitate oil cooling, this programme
inhibits gearshifting, either up or down. It
is however possible to use the manual
programme
