display also shows neutral N.
2. If neutral "N" is requested with the ACCEL-
ERATOR PEDAL PRESSED, irrespective of
the BRAKE status:
The system will not accept the request and

Request for Reverse With the Vehicle Mov-
ing Reverse:
Gear can only be engaged in the following
conditions:
Brake pedal pressed
Without pressing brake (around <3kph)
Car speed close to 0 km/h
In detail, after the "R" request by the driver
the system behaves in the following way:
1. If the vehicle's speed < reverse acceptance
threshold speed within a system timeout:
If the brake pedal is pressed → the system
engages R
If the brake pedal is NOT pressed → The
system engages “R”.
2. If the vehicle's speed > reverse acceptance
threshold speed after a system timeout,
REGARDLESS OF THE BRAKE STATUS:(upto
some threshold)
If the vehicle's speed < threshold speed →
(i.e: 3kph – 10kph) the system engages N.
If the vehicle's speed > threshold speed →
The system maintains the current gear.

ceptance threshold speed within a system
timeout:
If the brake pedal is pressed → the system
engages 1st gear
If the brake pedal is NOT pressed → The
system engages 1st gear.
2. If the vehicle's speed > 1st gear acceptance
threshold speed after a system timeout,
REGARDLESS OF THE BRAKE STATUS:upto
10kph) (i.e: 3kph – 10kph)
If the vehicle's speed < threshold speed →
The system engages N.
If the vehicle's speed > threshold speed →
The system maintains the current gear.
