Sport mode
3
To activate
Press SPORT button.
SPORT mode is used to change damping 3,
steering 3, throttle application and the
shift point for Easytronic 3 and automatic
transmission 3 while driving.
Damping and steering become more direct
and provide better contact with the road
surface. The engine reacts more quickly to
accelerator movements.
With Easytronic 3 and automatic
transmission 3, the shift times are
shortened and shifting takes place at
higher revs (not with cruise control
enabled 3).

Tyre pressure loss monitoring
system
(DDS = Deflation Detection
System)
3
The Deflation Detection System
continuously monitors the speed of all
wheels while driving. If a tyre loses
pressure, it grows smaller and therefore
rotates more quickly than the other wheels.
If the system detects a difference in speed,
the control indicator w illuminates red.

After tyre pressure is corrected or a tyre
or wheel is changed, the system must be
initialised by pressing the DDS button.
