Dear Customer,

Thank you for having purchased a Guidosimplex device,

As with all of our products, this device, was designed and created
respecting the highest possible levels of quality and safety standards.

All Guidosimplex products are manufactured from the best materials
available on today’s market , this means that when you buy a
Guidosimplex product you buy quality and reliability, which results in
less maintenance.

Guidosimplex products coexist in perfect harmony in parallel with the
original commands and design of the vehicle and conventional
driving can be restored on command.

This device is capable of fulfilling all needs as per design as long as
a correct usage is performed.

Therefore we advise you to consult the below
reported user guide prior to using
the device.

The D932 is the Guidosimplex device which automates the
vehicles original mechanical transmission. This device was
designed in accordance with regulations and standards and is
suitable to all vehicle types with a conventional manual gearbox.
The D932 does not impact negatively the performance of the
vehicle as it is powered by a dedicated servomotor.
It consists of three main parts:

•ECU
Which processes the signal received from the cars RPM sensor
and transmits the command via the servomotor to the clutch
pedal.

•The command console
The console panel is positioned on the passenger side of the
vehicle , it has three buttons providing the driver with three
different modules to choose from.

•Gear stick knob.
Incorporated sensors required to actuate the device.

THE SYNCHRO DRIVE CLUTCH

The clutch is automatically depressed when the engine is turned
on, in order to move the vehicle insert the first gear and
accelerate, the clutch engagement is proportional to this action
e.g. a slow/fast start depends entirely on the amount of pressure
which is applied on the accelerator.

At speeds below 20 km/h the clutch is automatically depressed

whenever the accelerator is fully released, above 20km/h
whenever you need to change gear simply place your hand
over the gear stick sensors to depress the clutch
smoothly and automatically, vice versa
removing your hand releases the
clutch compatible to the
actual speed of the vehicle.

During deceleration ,
caused also by sudden
braking, the original
braking features of the
vehicle remain unaltered as the
clutch is depressed at a speed
below 25km/h , if acceleration is

again requested the reintegration of
the clutch is proportional to the
amount of pressure applied on the
accelerator pedal regardless to the gear
inserted.

Whenever conventional driving is required e.g. using the original

pedals , the Synchro Drive Clutch can be switched off using the
red button on the command console fig 1.
