similar action is required to shift down

IMPORTANT The car can only be put in-

to reverse gear when it has stopped mov-

ing completely. With the engine running,

before engaging the reverse, wait at least

2 seconds with the clutch pedal fully down

to prevent damage and grating of the

gears.

To engage reverse R from neutral, lift the

sliding ring A-fig. 2 or B-fig. 3 under the

knob and shift the lever to the right and back

(1.416V, 2.416V, 1.616V and Multijet versions).

To change gears properly

you must push the clutch

pedal fully down. It is therefore es-

sential that there is nothing under the

pedals: make sure the mats are lying

flat and do not get in the way of the

pedals.

WARNING

Do not drive with your hand

resting on the gear lever as the

force exerted, even if slight,

could lead over time to pre-

mature wear on the gearbox internal

components.
