GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR

The "GSI" (Gear Shift Indicator) system
advises the driver to change gear
through a special indication on the
display fig. 99.
99
Through the GSI, the driver is notified
that changing gear will allow a
reduction in fuel consumption.
Therefore, for driving oriented towards
reducing fuel consumption, it is
recommended to stick to "Natural" or
"All Weather" mode and to follow the
suggestions of the Gear Shift Indicator,
where the traffic conditions allow it.
When the SHIFT UP icon ( SHIFT) is
shown on the display, the GSI is
advising the driver to engage a higher
gear, when the SHIFT DOWN (
SHIFT) icon is displayed, it advises
the driver to engage a lower gear.
Note The indication in the instrument
panel remains on until the driver shifts
gear or the driving conditions go back
to a situation where gearshifting is
not required to improve consumption.

turned to MAR-ON, the following

they immediately go back to their

❒ The movement of the gauges stops
when the engine is started.
Lighting of graphic
symbols/display
A few seconds after the key is inserted,
the gauges, graphic symbols and
