Electronic driving
programmes
Eco mode E
When automatic mode is engaged,
the Eco mode can be selected to
reduce fuel consumption.
Eco mode selects the most suitable
gear depending on the speed of the
vehicle, the engine speed and the
intensity with which the accelerator is
pressed.
Activation
Press the E button on the selector
lever housing. Control indicator E is
shown in the transmission display to
indicate activation.
Deactivation
Eco mode is switched off by:
■ pressing the E button again,
■ switching to manual mode.
In order to protect the transmission at
extremely high clutch temperatures,
an intermittent audible warning chime
may sound. In such cases, depress
the foot brake, select N and apply the
parking brake to allow the clutch to
cool down.
Kickdown
If the accelerator pedal is pressed
past the pressure point, the
transmission shifts to a lower gear
depending on engine speed. Full
engine power is available for
acceleration.
Driving and operating
If engine speed is too high the
transmission switches to a higher
gear, even in manual mode. Without
kickdown this automatic shift is not
effected in manual mode.
Fault
In the event of a fault, control indicator
Ñ is shown in the transmission
display.
Continued driving is possible,
provided the vehicle is driven with
care and anticipation. A warning
message may appear in the Driver
Information Centre in conjunction with
a warning chime 3 85.
Note
The volume of the warning chime
can also be adjusted via the Driver
Information Centre 3 79.
Have the cause of the fault remedied
by a workshop.
