GEARSHIFT LEVER (fig. 101 )
HAND BRAKE (fig. 102 )
To release the hand brake:
Depending on the versions, the car is fit-
ted with a manual gearbox with six gears
or with an electronic auromatic gearbox
(see “Technical specifications” chapter).
In versions with manual gearbox the po-
sition of the single gears is shown on the
gearshift lever knob.
When changing gear always fully de-
press the clutch pedal. Before engaging
reverse gear (R) wait for the car to be
stationary.
The hand brake is located between the
two front seats.
– Slightly lift the lever (A) and press
the button (B).
To operate the brake when the vehicle
is stationary pull the lever upwards until
the required braking action is obtained.
– holding the button down lower the
lever: the x warning light on the instru-
ment panel will go out.
When the ignition key is in the MAR
position the x warning light will come
on on the instrument panel.
To prevent the car from moving acciden-
tally, keep the brake pedal pressed when
engaging the handbrake.
To engage reverse gear (R) it is neces-
sary to wait for the car to be stationary,
then raise the ring under the grip (A)
(with the fingers of the same hand hold-
ing the lever). After engaging reverse
gear, release the ring. It is not necessary
to raise the ring on the lever when shift-
ing from reverse to another gear.
The wheels should be
locked after a few clicks
of the hand brake lever.
