Operation
With the lever in position P or N,
switch on the ignition.
Foot on the brake pedal (the
warning light goes out), move the
lever out of position P.
The lever must only be engaged in
D or R when the vehicle is
stationary. Foot on the brake and
accelerator pedal released.
You must apply the brake before
pressing the unlocking button to
move out of the P position.
Driving in automatic mode
Select position D. In most traffic
conditions, you will not have to
touch the gear selector lever again:
the gears will change automatically
at the right time and at the most
suitable engine speed because the
"automatic system" takes into
account the vehicle load and road
contour and adjusts itself to the
particular driving style you have
chosen.
