116 Driving and operating

Rocking the vehicle

Rocking the vehicle is only

permissible if the vehicle is stuck in

sand, mud, snow or a hole. Move the

selector lever between R and A/M (or

between + and -) in a repeat pattern,

while applying light pressure to the

accelerator pedal. Do not race the

engine and avoid sudden

acceleration.

Parking

Apply the parking brake. The most

recently engaged gear (see

transmission display) remains

engaged. With N, no gear is engaged.

When the ignition is switched off, the

transmission no longer responds to

movement of the selector lever.

If the ignition is not switched off, or the

parking brake has not been applied, a

warning chime will sound upon

opening the driver's door.

Manual mode

If a higher gear is selected when the

engine speed is too low, or a lower

gear when the speed is too high, the

shift is not executed. This prevents

the engine from running at too low or

too high an engine speed.

If engine speed is too low, the

transmission automatically shifts to a

lower gear.

If engine speed is too high, the

transmission only switches to a higher

gear via kickdown.

Electronic driving

programmes

Winter mode V

Activate the Winter mode if you have

problems starting off on a slippery

road surface.

Activation

Press the V button. Control indicator

V is shown in the transmission

display. The transmission switches to

automatic mode and the vehicle

starts off in a suitable gear.
