Gear positions
Select an appropriate gear position depending on the direction in which the car is to travel.
Changing gear
Change gear position by pressing the spring-loaded lever forwards or backwards. The brake pedal must be depressed to be able to change gear.
Note
It is possible to change between D/R at very low speed without your foot on the brake in order to facilitate parking, for example.
Gear positions
The driver display shows which gear position is currently in use.
The car has three different gear positions and a button for the parking brake:
R, N, D or the P button for parking brake.
Parking brake – P
Press the button.
The symbol in the driver display illuminates when the parking brake is activated.

The parking brake must be activated in order to be able to lock the car and arm the alarm.
In an emergency, the parking brake can be activated when the car is in motion by pressing and holding the button depressed.
The car is then braked heavily with the foot brake. Braking stops when the button is released, or if the accelerator pedal is depressed.
