C5 - All Types
4 HP 20 GEARBOX CONTROLS
Engines : XFX - 4HX
Selection control (continued).
In position M, selection is by an electronic sensor located close to the gear lever.
The variation of flux necessary to the movement of the sensor cells is obtained by a magnet located on
the lever itself. This enables the change of status. The information is transmitted to the gearbox ECU.
Two switches placed on the gear control gate permit the driver to choose one of the following three
driving programmes:
- Normal : The normal programme operates in the absence of the other two (Eco law, autoadaptative
mode).
- Sport : Permits a more dynamic, sporty performance.
- Snow : Facilitates starting and adhesion on slippery surfaces.
To return to the normal programme, press a second time on the sport switch or snow switch.
Only when the selector is in position (P) or (N) can the engine be started.
- (1) Control linkage with ball-joint.
- (2) Automatic adjustment (Push-button « c », pressed in to lock the control adjustment, springs out for
the adjustment to be made).
- (3) Cable sleeve stop.
The automatic gearbox is controlled by cable.
