This selector lever position is suitable for long climbs and descents.
The 1 1 s s t t and 2 2 n n d d gears are shifted up and down automatically
depending upon engine load and speed. The 3 3 r r d d and 4 4 t t h h gears are
not engaged.

This position is recommended for extremely steep hills.
The vehicle only drives in 1 1 s s t t gear. The 2 2 n n d d , 3 3 r r d d and 4 4 t t h h gear are
locked.
The cruise control* cannot be used in position "1 1 ".
N N o o t t e e
When changing down manually the selector lever can be moved into gears
3 3 , 2 2 , and 1 1 , but the gearbox will not change down until it is no longer
possible to over-rev the engine.
Kick-down device
The kick-down device gives maximum acceleration. When the
accelerator pedal is pressed right down past the full throttle
position, depending on road speed and engine speed, the box
changes down into a lower gear. The shift into the next higher gear
then takes place as soon as the maximum specified engine speed
is reached.
