Automatic gearbox*

Gearbox programs
The automatic gearbox has two gearbox programmes.
The gearbox management system is equipped with two driving programmes.
Depending on the driver or the driving situation, either a consumption
oriented programme or a more "sporty" programme will be selected.
The programme selection will be carried out automatically depending on how
the accelerator is used.
•
The consumption-oriented programme will be selected if you use the
accelerator slowly or normally. This means that the gearbox will shift up
earlier and down later.
•
A more "sporty" driving programme which shifts up gear later will be
selected if you use the accelerator more quickly.
Note
A programme will, depending on the driving resistance, be selected automat-
ically that guarantees more pulling power, thus avoiding having to shift gear
constantly.
