Unfortunately we don' t have a manual on this vehicle as it is not offered here in the USA. However, we do have dual clutch vehicles with similar issues.

If you have a wet clutch then the most likely issue is a fluid pressure issue so the clutch is not actually engaging. .

Here is a video that will help with explaining this transmission in more depth:

I would suggest starting with checking fro codes and we can go from there.
