If the accelerator pedal is depressed fully, the gearbox will automatically shift to a lower gear, depending on the speed and engine revs. This will
make use of the full vehicle acceleration
The gearbox does not shift up to the next gear until the engine reaches the maximum engine speed for the gear.
When the Eco driving profile is selected in vehicles with driving profile selection
fully beyond the pressure point, the engine output is automatically regulated to ensure maximum vehicle acceleration.

Launch Control Programme

The Launch Control Programme permits maximum acceleration from a standing start in vehicles with a 6-speed DSG
Switching off the traction control system
Depress and hold the brake pedal with your left foot.
Move the selector lever to position D/S or into gearbox programme S. Alternatively, select the Tiptronic position, or in vehicles with driving
profile selection select the Sport driving profile.
With your right foot, depress the accelerator until the engines speed reaches approximately 3,200 rpm.
Take your left foot off the brake →
Switch the traction control system back on after acceleration.
WARNING
Rapid acceleration can cause loss of traction and skidding, particularly on slippery roads. This can cause you to lose control of the vehicle,
which can lead to accidents and serious injuries.
Always adjust your driving style in accordance with the flow of traffic.
Only use kickdown or fast acceleration if visibility, weather, road and traffic conditions permit, and other road users are not put at risk due to
the acceleration and the driving style.
Only use the launch control programme, if the road and traffic conditions allow for it.
You should never endanger other road users through the acceleration of your vehicle or through your driving style.
Please note that the drive wheels can start to spin and the vehicle can skid if the traction control system is switched off, especially if the
road is slippery.
Switch the traction control system on again after acceleration.
NOTICE
If you stop the vehicle on an incline, do not attempt to stop it from rolling back by depressing the accelerator while a position is still selected.
The automatic gearbox could overheat and be damaged.
Never allow the vehicle to roll in position N, particularly if the ignition is switched off. The automatic gearbox will not be lubricated and could
be damaged.
Accelerating with the Launch Control programme places heavy strain on all vehicle components. This can lead to higher rates of wear.
