Manual shifting

You can select to drive only with manual
shift or "take over" from the automatic
shifting system whenever necessary. The
gear lever is used like a normal gear lever
except that there is no clutch pedal.
When engaging a gear, push the gear lever
gently towards the desired position.
Note! Do not press hard on the lever. The
gear will not be engaged any faster.

High/low split

On the left-hand side of the gear lever is a
button for the manual selection of high/low
split. The splitter gear is changed immedi-
ately when the spring-loaded button is
released. The selected splitter gear is shown
on the display. An up arrow indicates low
split and a down arrow indicates high split.
When the splitter gear and basic gear are
changed simultaneously, the split can be
pre-selected by holding in the button and
moving the gear lever to the desired posi-
tion.

High/low range

High and low range is selected automati-
cally by the system depending on the speed
of the vehicle.
Note! When changing gear, the accelerator
pedal should not be released.
