Driving a car with automatic transmission

If the engine is running the driver's door opens, and the brake pedal is pressed, issued a warning beep: you should move the gearshift lever in position N and tighten the parking brake. When you stop on the rise should be sure to tighten the parking brake pedal or press the main brake. Do not hold the car when the transfer by increasing the engine speed to prevent overheating of the gearbox. When excess heat traction automatically. For longer stops, such as in a traffic jam or on the move, turn off the engine.

Installation of car parking

Before leaving the car tighten the parking brake, then remove the key from the ignition. Inclusion of the last channel (the display on the indicator gear box) is enabled. In position N transfer is not included. After turning off the ignition Easytronic transmission ceases to respond to the movement of the gear lever. If you do not remove the ignition key, then long-time parking your car can happen discharging. If not tightened the parking brake, within a few seconds after the ignition is turned off alarm flashing parking brake system. If the engine is off and parking brake nezatyanutom opened the driver's door, issued a warning beep and flashes the same detector. In this case, turn on the ignition, including transfer, then turn off the ignition and tighten the parking brake.

Pulling the car when slips

To pull a car stuck in sand, mud, snow or a ditch, with a little throttle translating the gear lever back and forth between the provisions of the R and A (or + and -). If possible, hold the engine at low speeds and avoid falls when you press the accelerator pedal.

NOTE The above method is used only in those exceptional cases.

Precise maneuvering

For precise maneuvering, such as the installation of parking, check-in garage, etc. You can use the property of "sliding" enabled the transfer when you release the main brake pedal. Do not squeeze the accelerator and brake simultaneously. To protect against damage Easytronic transmission overheating clutch function of "sliding" switch off automatically.

After starting the engine before turning on the transfer, press the brake pedal. When the transmission and the brake released, the car starts moving. Do not press both the accelerator and brake pedals. While D can ride in almost any conditions. With a soft uniform squeezing the accelerator pedal is timely gear changes, providing fuel economy. Manual switching is necessary only in exceptional cases. Third, second or first choose a transfer only if switching to higher transfer undesirable, or when engine braking. How to only allow traffic situation, switch back to mode D.

P - parking regime. In this mode, the vehicle's wheels are blocked. Include it only in the stationary vehicle and tightened parking brake. The display shows the transmission symbol R.

R - reverse mode. Include it only in the stationary vehicle. The display shows the transmission symbol R. N - neutral position or idling. The display shows the transmission symbol N. Gearshift lever can be switched from the position P only when the ignition key and pressing the brake pedal (to lock the gear lever). To activate the P or R, press the button on the selector lever. Start the engine is possible only in position P or N. When starting the engine in position N in addition make the most of the main brake pedal or turn on the parking brake. During the gear shift does not squeeze the accelerator pedal.

Modes of motion (D, 1, 2, 3 and 4)

Permanent position for normal driving conditions - on transfers from the 1 st to 4 th. Transmission will not switch above the established level. To activate the 3rd or 1-th transmission, press the button on the selector lever.

The display shows the position gearbox shift lever. In mode D, in addition, shows included in this time of transfer (Fig. 1.223).

Driving modes with electronic control

If you switch «SPORT» switching occurs at a higher speed (if not included speed controller). The display is lit corresponding to the transmission detector (see Figure 1.224). 99

Mode automatically switches to the neutral position to reduce fuel consumption automatically sets the gearbox in position N, for example when stopping at a traffic light. Automatic switching to the neutral position is activated in the following cases: - The gear lever is in position D, 3, 2 or 1; - Brake pedal is pressed; - The car stands still; - The accelerator pedal is pressed. When you release the brake and throttle the car moving from the place as usual. The program of temperature control after a cold start automatically, due to delay in switching to higher gears (higher speed) quickly brings the catalyst to the temperature required for optimum reduction of emissions of harmful substances in the exhaust. Adaptive mode automatically coordinate the process of switching to other programs in terms of driving, such as when driving a large load or on the rise.

Winter driving modes

driving mode

In case of difficulty in moving from place to slippery roads, press treatment (Fig. 1.225), which can be done only in the positions P, R, N, D, 3 (in the display lights up the appropriate gear icon). The car will touch on the 3rd gear. Winter mode operation stops when the following conditions: - Re-uses the keys; - Switched manually at 2 nd or 1 st transmission; - Turn off the ignition. To protect against damage to winter driving mode is automatically switched off at too high a temperature of transmission oil.

Forced downshifts

Pressing the accelerator below the point of resistance at a speed below a certain value gearbox switch to a lower gear. In order to accelerate use the full power of the engine.

Auxiliary engine braking

To use an engine brake function during descent include timely step 3, 2, or, if the situation so requires, 1. Particularly high inhibitory effect on the level 1. If step 1 is included at too high a speed, the gearbox will continue to work on the 2 nd transfer to the point until it reaches the point of transition to the 1-th transmission, for example by braking.

Siphon "

To "pull" machine, stuck in the sand, mud, snow or a ditch, with a little throttle alternately translating lever back and forth between the provisions of D and R. The engine speed hold as low as possible, avoid falls by pressing the accelerator pedal. The above method is used only in those exceptional cases.

Precise maneuvering

For precise maneuvering, such as the installation of parking, check-in garage, etc. You can use the property "sliding" when you release the brake pedal. Do not squeeze the accelerator and brake simultaneously.
