MESSAGE

DESCRIPTION

Gear Not Available

This message appears, along with a warning buzzer:

• When it is not possible to change gear due to a fault in the

system.

• When, due a fault in the system, it is only possible to

engage 1st (1), 2nd (2), 3rd (3) or reverse (R).

Contact your authorized dealer if the message continues

to appear.

Shift Not Allowed

This message appears, together with a warning buzzer, when

the system will not allow a gear change requested by the

driver (for example, that would cause engine overspeed or

transmission damage).

This message may also appear when starting the engine at

low temperature. In this case the Automated Manual trans-

mission isn't able to engage first gear, in this situation either

use the engine block heater or allow the engine to idle in

NEUTRAL (N) until the transmission has warmed.

Press Brake Pedal And

Try Again

This message appears accompanied, in some cases, by a

warning buzzer, if you attempt to change gear with the

vehicle parked without pressing the brake pedal.

To shift the transmission (with key on/engine off), press and

hold the brake pedal, move the shift lever to NEUTRAL (N),

then move the shift lever to the desired position.

Shift To Neutral

This message appears, together with a warning buzzer, when

the shift lever must be moved to the NEUTRAL (N) position.

When the shift lever is moved to NEUTRAL (N) the message

on the display should go off.

Contact your authorized dealer if the message continues

to appear.

Press Brake Pedal

This message is shown in the display together with an

acoustic signal, when the brake pedal is not pressed during

a starting attempt.

Press Brake Shift to N

key to start

This message appears, after the door opening, to remind to

Press the Brake pedal and shift the lever in N to permit

the cranking.

Parking The Vehicle

To park safely, it is essential to engage MANUAL (1st) gear, DRIVE (D) or REVERSE
(R) gear while your foot is on the brake pedal. Once MANUAL (1st) gear, DRIVE (D)
or REVERSE (R) gear is displayed in the EVIC, turn the engine off and engage the
parking brake. It is essential to wait until the gear engaged appears in the display
before turning the engine off and releasing the brake pedal. Always remember to set
your parking brake.

NOTE:
NEVER leave your vehicle with the gearbox in NEUTRAL (N) and always remember to
fully apply your parking brake. Always remember to set the parking brake when the
“Set Park Brake” message is displayed.
