Shifting gears
The MT is equipped with an automatic transmission, which
has four forward and one reverse gear.
In the driving gear drive (normal operation) the transmission
shifts automatically from the first to the fourth gear.
You will find information on shifting in section “Operating panel
for automatic transmission” on page 65 .
To adapt to unusual terrain such as steep slopes or extreme
inclines, additional lower or higher driving ranges can be se-
lected.
