Gear control, electronic lever

R: reverse gear

N: neutral

D: automatic mode

B: depending on the vehicle, regeneration mode

P: parking, button 2

The gear engaged is displayed on the instrument panel as a reminder.

Shift the selector lever 1 one or two notches upwards or downwards to the desired position (R, N, D or, depending on the vehicle, B) then release the lever and it will return to the stable position.

The position engaged is displayed on the instrument panel.

If certain conditions prevent shifting from one position to another, the current position flashes on the instrument panel.

With the vehicle at a standstill and the engine or the ignition on, press the button 2 to engage the position P.

With the vehicle stationary and the engine on, press the brake pedal and move the selector lever 1 upwards or downwards according to the position desired.

If the brake pedal is not pressed, the "Press brake pedal" message and the are displayed on the instrument panel.

With the vehicle stationary and the engine on, to engage position N, it is necessary to press the brake pedal before moving the selector lever 1 one notch upwards or downwards.

With the vehicle stationary, the engine on and your foot on the brake pedal, move the selector lever 1 two notches downwards to engage position D.

Note: if position D, R or, depending on the vehicle, if position B is engaged while the vehicle is stationary, the vehicle moves forward as soon as you release the brake pedal (without pressing on the accelerator pedal).

If one of the conditions is not met, the current position flashes for around 5 seconds and the "Press brake pedal" message is displayed on the instrument panel for approximately five seconds.

In most traffic conditions, you will not have to touch the gear lever.

Note: with the engine on and the vehicle moving between 0 and 5 mph (0 and 8 km/h), position N or R, it is necessary to press the brake pedal in order to engage position D.

(depending on the vehicle)

This mode allows driving with a more dynamic regenerative mode. When releasing the accelerator, the vehicle uses regenerative braking to slow down the vehicle. Thus the motor generates higher electrical current which allows the traction battery to be recharged.

Note: position D, R or, depending on the vehicle, if position B is engaged while the vehicle is stationary, the vehicle moves forward as soon as you release the brake pedal (without pressing on the accelerator pedal).

In B mode, the regenerative braking will be reduced if the accumulator is cold or completely charged.

(depending on the vehicle)

To switch from one position to the other, tilt the lever to one notch or two notches backwards.

The selected gear lever position is displayed on the instrument panel.

With the vehicle stationary and the engine on, move the selector lever 1 two notches upwards to engage position R.

Note: if position D, R or, depending on the vehicle, if position B is engaged while the vehicle is stationary, the vehicle moves forward as soon as you release the brake pedal (without pressing on the accelerator pedal).

If the brake pedal is not pressed, a beep will sound, the display of the current position flashes for around five seconds in the grid shown on the instrument panel, and the "Press brake pedal" message is displayed for around five seconds.

Note: with the engine on and the vehicle moving at between 0 and 5 mph (0 and 8 km/h), in position N, D or, depending on the vehicle, B, it is necessary to press the brake pedal to engage position R.

Position P is engaged automatically and, if fitted, the electronic parking brake is applied when:

and

P is displayed on the instrument panel.

As position P is automatically engaged when the engine is stopped, it is sometimes necessary to place the vehicle in position N for some car washes, for example:

The next time the engine is restarted, position P is engaged automatically according to the cases described earlier.

In the event of an engine fault or an electrical fault (battery fault, etc.), make sure that the vehicle is properly immobilised.
