The automatic transmission is lubricated u nd er

pressure and therefore only wh ile the engine is

running.

Consequently, in order to avoid serious dam age,

the following recommendations m ust be follo-

wed:

- never drive with the ignition switched off (on a

dow nw ards slope for example), the dan ger of

such a p ractice cannot be over emp hasised.

- never push the vehicle (for examp le: to reach a

petrol station), unless the p recautions descri-

bed in th e "Towing" paragraph are taken.

Moreover, the veh icle can on ly be driven if the en-

gine is running. It is therefore impossible to start

the engine of an autom atic transmission vehicle

by pu shing it.

TTTTOOOOWWWWIIIINNNNGGGG

It is always preferable to tow the vehicle on a flatbed trailer or with the front wheels lifted.

How ever, if this is not p ossible, the vehicle may, in

exceptional circumstances, be towed at a sp eed of

less than 25 mph (40 km/h) over a d istance of less

than 30 miles (50 km) (lever in N ).

Oil pressure

Before carrying ou t th is procedure:

- if the gearbox has been drained, fill it with

3.5 litres of oil,

- if the gearbox is simp ly to be checked, 0.5 litres

of the recomm ended oil must be add ed.

1 - The vehicle must be on a four post lift and the

transmission at ambient temperature.

2 - Switch on the engine with the selector lever

in Park.

3 - Connect the XXXXRRRR22225555 and enter:

D 1 4 then # 0 4

4 - Lift the vehicle and run the engine u ntil a

temperature of 60 °C is reached .

5 - When the required temp erature has been

reached , with the engine run ning, open the

oil top-up plu g; allow the excess oil to flow

out for approximately 20 seconds (this excess

shou ld exceed 0.1 litres). Refit the plug.

6 - If the volum e of oil recovered is less than 0.1

litres, the level is not correct, repeat th e ope-

ration.

In this case, add 1 litre of the recomm ended oil

and leave the transm ission to cool before carrying

out these operations.
