Emergency programme


First read and observe the introductory information and safety warn-
ings on page 121.
An emergency programme exists in the event of a fault in the system.
The gearbox operates in a corresponding emergency programme if there are
functional faults in the gearbox electronics. All of the display elements illuminate
or go out.
A functional fault can have the following effect:
›
The gearbox only shifts into certain gears;
›
The reverse gear R cannot be used,
›
The manual shift programme is switched off in emergency mode.
Note
If the gearbox has switched to emergency mode, drive to a specialist garage to
have the fault rectified.

The engine has to be run in during the first 1 500 kilometres.
Up to 1 000 kilometres
›
Do not drive faster than 3/4 of the maximum speed of the gear in use, i.e. 3/4 of
the maximum permissible engine speed.
›
No full throttle.
›
Avoid high engine speeds.
›
Do not tow a trailer.
From 1 000 up to 1 500 kilometres
›
Gradually increase the power output of the engine up to the full speed of the
gear engaged, i.e. up to the maximum permissible engine speed.
During the first operating hours the engine has higher internal friction than later
until all of the moving parts have harmonized. The driving style which you adopt
during the first approx.1 500 kilometres plays a decisive part in the success of
running in your car.
