180 Driving and operating
To shift out of P, depress the brake
pedal and select the desired mode.
The vehicle shifts automatically into
P when
● the ignition is switched off
● the driver's door is opened while
the vehicle's speed is below
2 km/h
The vehicle will not shift into P if it is
moving too fast. Stop the vehicle and
shift into P.
Reverse gear R
To shift into and out of R, the vehicle
must be at standstill and the brake
pedal has to be depressed.
Caution
Shifting into R while the vehicle is
moving forward could damage the
automatic transmission. Only shift
into R after the vehicle has been
stopped.
Neutral N
In this position, the propulsion system
does not transfer torque to the
wheels.
When N is selected and ignition is
switched off, P is engaged after a
short time.
Automatic mode D
This mode is for normal driving.
To shift into and out of D, the vehicle
must be at standstill and the brake
pedal has to be depressed.
Engine braking
To utilise the engine braking effect,
select a lower gear in good time when
driving downhill.
Free wheeling / car wash mode
In certain situations, e.g., in an
automatic car wash etc., it is
necessary that the wheels can move
freely when the engine is switched off.
To avoid that the vehicle shifts
automatically from N into P, enable
free wheeling:
With the vehicle stationary and the
engine running, proceed as follows:
1. Depress the brake pedal and
select N.
2. Within 5 seconds, depress and
hold the brake pedal, switch off
ignition and move the selector
forwards or backwards.
3. Release the brake pedal and
switch on ignition.
4. Depress and hold the brake pedal
and push the switch j.
5. Release the brake pedal and
switch off ignition.
A message is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre indicating that the
wheels are unblocked for the next 15
minutes.
To revert to normal operation,
depress the brake pedal, switch on
the engine and select P.
