DESCRIPTION
When the ignition key is turned to ON/
RUN/MAR, the Transmission Fault Indica-
tor light turns on and should go off after a
few seconds.
The Transmission Fault Indicator illumi-
nates either steady or blinking (together
with this message and a buzzer) to indi-
cate a transmission fault.
Contact your authorized dealer if the mes-
sage continues to appear.
This message indicates that the driver is
operating the transmission incorrectly.
Incorrect use (by the driver) could auto-
matically activate a procedure for protect-
ing the system.
Contact you authorized dealer if the mes-
sage continues to appear.
MANUAL (M) mode is not available, due
to a fault or other condition. Use the
DRIVE (D) position to operate the vehicle.
Contact your authorized dealer if the mes-
sage continues to appear.
Automatic (DRIVE) mode is not available
due to a fault or other condition. Use
MANUAL (M) mode to operate the ve-
hicle.
Contact your authorized dealer if the mes-
sage continues to appear.
This message appears, together with a
buzzer, when the clutch overheats.
In this situation, limit stop and go driving
and gear shifts or if necessary stop the
vehicle and turn the engine off to allow
the clutch to cool.
If the message continues to appear, con-
tact your Authorized Dealer.
To avoid clutch failure, do not use the
accelerator to keep the vehicle at a stand-
still (for example holding on a hill); the
clutch could be damaged by overheating.
Use the brake pedal instead and operate
the accelerator only when you are ready to
drive away.
