To release the handbrake:<br />

1) slightly lift the handbrake and press<br />

release button A-fig. 1;<br />

2) keep the button pressed and lower<br />

the lever. Warning light x will go<br />

out;<br />

3) press the brake pedal when carrying<br />

out this operation to prevent the<br />

vehicle moving accidentally.<br />

IMPORTANT Pull the handbrake<br />

lever only when the vehicle is at a<br />

standstill, or when the vehicle is running,<br />

but however only in case of a failure<br />

of the hydraulic system.<br />

Should the handbrake be exceptionally<br />

used when the vehicle is running, it<br />

is suggested to keep a moderate traction<br />

to avoid causing the rear axle<br />

block, entailing vehicle side skidding.<br />

USING THE<br />

MANUAL GEARBOX<br />

Press the clutch fully before shifting<br />

the gear stick into one of the positions<br />

shown in the diagram fig. 2 (the diagram<br />

is also on the gear lever knob).<br />

To engage reverse, lift the sliding ring<br />

A under the knob and shift the lever<br />

to the left and forth.<br />

IMPORTANT Only engage the reverse<br />

gear when the vehicle is completely<br />

stationary.<br />

With the engine running, before engaging<br />

reverse, wait for at least 2 seconds<br />

with the clutch pedal pressed to<br />

avoid damaging the gears and grating.<br />

WARNING<br />

You must press the clutch<br />

fully down to change gear<br />

properly. It is therefore essential<br />

that there is nothing under the pedals.<br />

Make sure that mats are lying<br />

flat and do not get in the way of<br />

pedals.<br />
