Engaging the transmission position
Pull or push lever in the corresponding direc‐
tion.
As soon as the selector lever is released, it re‐
verts to the center position. In position R, the
selector lever locks.
The engaged transmission position is dis‐
played in the instrument cluster and on the se‐
lector lever.
With the transmission position engaged, the
vehicle can be moved very slowly when ma‐
neuvering or in stop and go traffic. To do this,
depress the accelerator briefly while the vehi‐
cle is stationary.
Shift lock
To shift out of neutral, apply the brake while
the vehicle is stationary.
R is Reverse
Select only when the vehicle is stationary.
It is also possible to rock the vehicle up to
6 mph/10 km/h. To do this, switch between
forward and reverse gear.
N is Neutral
Use in automatic car washes, for example. The
vehicle can then roll.
S Sequential mode
Use the shift paddles or the shift lever to up‐
shift or downshift without letting off the gas.
Automatic Functions:
▷ Upshifting or downshifting is done only if
the rpm and vehicle speed are appropriate.
For example, there is no downshifting if the
engine speed is too high.
▷ Shortly before falling below a gear-de‐
pendent minimum speed, the transmission
is automatically downshifted.
It is also possible to start out in 2nd gear, e. g.
on icy roads.
Kickdown: for maximum acceleration, e. g.
when passing. To do this, depress the acceler‐
ator pedal past the resistance point, and pull
the left shift paddle once or push the shift lever
forward once.
Switch to Drive mode: push selector lever in
D/S direction.
D Drive mode
In Drive mode, all forward gears are automati‐
cally changed.
Kickdown: for maximum acceleration, e. g.
when passing. To do this, depress the acceler‐
ator pedal past the resistance point.
Switch to Sequential mode: shift using the
shift paddles or the selector lever, or push the
selector lever in the D/S direction.

The drive wheels are blocked.
P is engaged automatically:
▷ After the engine is switched off in ignition
