Moving the lever back to position D<br />

the gearbox instantly resumes the automatic<br />

mode selecting the ratio according<br />

to the driving characteristics.<br />

IMPORTANT The electronic control<br />

unit is programmed to change<br />

gear one at a time, therefore repeated<br />

fast actuations will not result in repeated<br />

engagements of the gears. The<br />

higher or lower gear is engaged moving<br />

the lever to the (+) or (–) position<br />

when the previous request has been<br />

performed.<br />

In the event of a fault to the sequential<br />

manual system, the system will select<br />

the automatic mode.<br />

FAILURE INDICATIONS<br />

Automatic gearbox faults are indicated<br />

by the warning light A-fig. 9 on<br />

the instrument panel.<br />

Turning the ignition key to MAR the<br />

warning light should turn on and go<br />

out after about 4 seconds. If the warning<br />

light stays on or if turns on when<br />

travelling, this indicates a gearbox fault<br />

(flashing light) or gearbox oil overheating<br />

(steadily glowing light).<br />

– Warning light glowing steadily<br />

= automatic gearbox oil maximum<br />

temperature.<br />

If the warning light turns on and<br />

glows steadily when travelling, this indicates<br />

that the gearbox oil has<br />

reached the maximum temperature.<br />

You are therefore advised to stop the<br />

vehicle with the engine at idle speed<br />

and gearshift lever in “N” or “P” (in<br />

this case engine cooling fans are on),<br />

until the warning light goes out and resume<br />

your journey without pushing<br />

the engine to peak performance.<br />

If the warning light turns on again, it<br />

is necessary to stop again with the engine<br />

idling until it goes out.<br />

If there are less than 15 minutes between<br />

one turning on of the warning<br />

light and the next, you are advised to<br />

stop the vehicle, do not switch off the<br />

engine but allow the engine-gearbox<br />

unit to cool down completely (both<br />

engine cooling fans off).<br />
