Manual gear changing

This selective gear change mode enables you to overtake, for example, while still remaining in automatic mode.
Operate the + or - steering mounted control paddle.
The gearbox engages the gear requested if the engine speed permits. AUTO is still displayed in the instrument panel.
After a few moments without any action on the controls, the gearbox resumes automatic control of the gears.
