Shifting
– To shift down: press the selector lever

– To shift up: pull the selector lever rear-
wards.
The Steptronic transmission continues
shifting automatically in certain situations,
for instance when certain engine speed lim-
its are reached.
With a tap-operated selector lever: when
M2 is set manually while the vehicle is sta-
tionary, the transmission will no longer
shift back to M1. This shifting behavior is
retained until you engage M1 manually or
exit M.
Avoiding automatic upshifting
Once a particular engine speed is attained,
M/S manual mode is automatically up-
shifted as needed.
MINI John Cooper Works: once particular
engine speeds are attained, upshifting is not
automatically performed in M/S manual
mode.
For vehicles with Steptronic Sport transmis-
sion, automatic shift operations are not per-
formed if one of the following conditions is
met:
– DSC is deactivated.
– TRACTION is activated.
In addition, there is no downshifting for
kickdown.
With the appropriate transmission version,
the lowest possible gear can be selected by
simultaneously activating kickdown and op-
erating the left shift paddles. This is not
possible by switching briefly via the shift
