MANUAL TRANSMISSION

CAUTION
Do not engage reverse gear when the
vehicle is moving. This can cause
damage to the transmission.
On some vehicles it is necessary to raise
the collar whilst selecting reverse gear.

ALL-WHEEL DRIVE

CAUTION
A vehicle fitted with AWD must be
recovered with either ALL wheels on
the ground or ALL wheels off the
ground. See Vehicle recovery (page 125).
If the AWD indicator flashes when you are
driving, this indicates a malfunction. During
a malfunction, the system switches off.
Have the system checked by a properly
trained technician.

Automatic mode

The AWD system, fitted to certain
rear-wheel drive variants, will
automatically provide driving torque to the
front wheels when road conditions become
slippery with rain, snow or ice etc.

unusual driving characteristics if manual
mode is left activated when driving on

automatically deactivated when you exceed

If additional traction is required when
moving off on an excessively slippery road
surface press the AWD switch. For item
location. See At a Glance (page 9). The
