Never engage the reverse gear when a
●
vehicle is moving forward.
WARNING
As a consequence of shifting down a gear
incorrectly, you may lose control of the ve-
hicle and cause an accident with serious
consequences.
CAUTION
If, at high speeds or high engine speeds,
the gear lever is shifted down to a gear that
is too low, serious damage can be caused
to the clutch and gearbox. This may also
happen if you press the clutch pedal and it
does not engage.
CAUTION
To prevent damage and avoid premature
wear, please observe the following:
While driving, do not leave your hand
●
resting on the gear stick. The pressure ap-
plied by your hand is transmitted to the
gearbox selector forks.
Always ensure that the vehicle is com-
●
pletely stopped before engaging the re-
verse gear.
When changing gear, always make sure
●
the clutch pedal is pushed right to the floor.
Never hold the vehicle "on the clutch" on
●
hills with the engine on.
