Never select R while the vehicle is in
forward motion. Doing so can result in
serious transmission damage.
Never select a forward gear while the
vehicle is moving backwards. Doing so
can result in serious transmission
damage.
Do not rev the engine or allow it to run
above normal idle speed while selecting
D or R, or while the vehicle is stationary
with any gear selected. Doing so can
result in serious transmission and/or
engine damage.
Do not allow the vehicle to remain
stationary with a drive gear selected and
the engine running. Always select N and
apply the EPB if the engine is to idle for
a prolonged period. The vehicle may
move unexpectedly with any other gear
position selected.
Do not use N for vehicle recovery. See
247, RECOVERY METHOD.
ROTARY GEAR SELECTOR
P should normally be selected before
switching off the engine. If any other gear is
selected at turn off, the selector will move to P
before retracting into the centre console.
If the engine is switched off with N selected, the
system will wait for 10 minutes before
selecting P. This delay allows the vehicle
enough time to be conveyed through a car
wash.
IF THE SELECTOR FAILS TO ELEVATE
If the drive selector is obstructed, remove the
obstruction and then start the engine. The
selector should elevate as normal.
If the selector still fails to elevate, even if there
is no obstruction, a fault in the system is
indicated. The selector can still be used in the
lowered position. Make sure P is selected
before engine switch off. Have the fault
rectified at the earliest opportunity.
TRANSMISSION FAULT
In the event that the transmission develops a
fault, a warning message may be displayed in
the Message centre and only limited gears may
become available. You should seek qualified
assistance immediately.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
Selection of reverse gear is prevented
when the vehicle is travelling in excess
of 24 km/h (15 mph). Never attempt to
engage reverse gear while the vehicle is
in forward motion. This may result in
serious transmission damage and
costly repairs.
A gear shift indicator warning lamp will
illuminate briefly at the recommended (upshift)
gear change point. See 46, GEAR SHIFT
(GREEN).
