-- Install the selector lever handle all the way onto the selector lever - make sure the locking button faces the driver.

• When doing this, handle must engage into ring groove of the selector lever.

-- Move the selector lever into R and S to check the function of the buttons.

• If the selector lever positions cannot be reached, remove the handle again. Refer to SELECTOR LEVER HANDLE .
