84 Tecshift

Stopping the vehicle

In Automatic or Manual mode, once the
vehicle is stationary first gear engages
automatically and the clutch opens. In R,
reverse remains engaged.
When stopping on gradients engage
handbrake or depress brake pedal. To
prevent overheating of the clutch, an
intermittent, audible warning may sound
as a signal to depress the footbrake or
apply the handbrake.
Switch off engine if stopping for a lengthy
period, e.g. in traffic jams.

Parking

Before leaving the vehicle:
z engage handbrake,
z remove ignition key.
The most recently engaged gear (indicator
in transmission display) remains engaged.
With N, no gear is engaged.
When the ignition is switched off Tecshift
no longer responds to movements of the
selector lever.
If the ignition is not switched off, or the
handbrake has not been applied, an
intermittent audible warning will sound
upon opening the driver's door.

Rocking the vehicle

If it becomes necessary to rock the vehicle
to free it from sand, mud, snow or a hole,
move the selector lever between R and A
(or + or -) in a repeat pattern while applying
light pressure to the accelerator pedal. Do
not race the engine and avoid sudden
acceleration.
This applies only in exceptional
circumstances mentioned above.

Manoeuvring the vehicle

To manoeuvre the vehicle back and forth
during attempts to park or in garage
entrances, the creeping movement can be
utilized by releasing the footbrake.
Never actuate the accelerator and brake
pedals simultaneously.
In order to protect Tecshift at extremely
high clutch temperatures, an intermittent
audible warning will sound. In such cases
depress the footbrake, select "N" and
apply the handbrake allowing the clutch to
cool down.
