Disengaging the gear selector
inhibitor

In certain cases, it may be necessary to
move the car when it is not driveable, for
example if the battery is flat. Proceed as fol-
lows to move the car:

1. There is a small cover behind P-R-N-D

on the gear selector panel. Open the rear
edge.

2. Fully insert the key blade from the

remote control.

3. Hold the key blade down and at the

same time move the gear lever out of
the P position.

Cold start

When starting in low temperatures, the gear
changes can sometimes feel hard. This is
due to the gearbox oil’s viscosity at low tem-
peratures. To minimise engine emissions, the
gearbox shifts up later than normal when the
engine is started at low temperatures.

NOTE

Depending on the engine temperature when
the engine is started, the idle speed after a
cold start may be higher than normal for
certain engine types.
