General notes
If the automated transmission shift system is
malfunctioning, you may, under certain cir-
cumstances, be able to continue your journey
in backup drive mode. It is not possible to
change gear in backup drive mode when the
vehicle is in motion.
The vehicle may respond abnormally in
backup drive mode and therefore requires a
high level of concentration on the part of the
driver.
Backup drive mode remains switched on for
as long as the ignition lock is in the drive
position. When you take the key out of the
ignition lock, backup drive mode is switched
off. If backup drive mode is used when the
transmission is cold, the on-board computer
may not show the selected gear. Repeat the
gear selection. If the on-board computer does
not display the selected gear after you have
tried to select a gear several times, switch off
the engine. Start the engine again and select
the gear.
