Automatic gearbox - Geartronic*
An automatic gearbox with Geartronic differs
from an Automatic gearbox - Powershift (p.

verter that transfers power from engine to
gearbox. It has two different gear modes -
Automatic and Manual.
D: Automatic gear positions. +/–: Manual gear
positions. S: Sport mode*.

The combined instrument panel shows the
position of the gear selector using the follow-
ing indications:
P, R, N, D, S*, 1, 2, 3 etc.
Gear positions
Automatic gear positions are
indicated on the right of the
combined instrument panel.
(Only one marker is illumi-
nated at a time - the one
showing the current gear
selector position.)
Symbol "S" for Sport mode is ORANGE when
the mode is active.
P – Parking position
Select P when starting the engine or when
the car is parked.

In order to be able to move the gear
selector from P-position, the brake pedal
must first be depressed firmly.
The gearbox is mechanically blocked when
the P position is engaged. Apply the parking
brake as well, as a precaution - , see Parking
brake (p. 292).
NOTE
The gear selector must be in P position to
allow the car to be locked and alarmed.
IMPORTANT
The car must be stationary when posi-
