Kick-down feature
Applies to: vehicles with S tronic gearbox
The kick-down feature is designed to give maxi­
mum acceleration .
When the accelerator pedal is pressed right down
past the point of resistance at full throttle, the
gearbox will shift down to a lower gear, depend­
ing on road speed and engine speed. The upshift
to the next higher gear is delayed until the en­
gine reaches maximum rpm .
A
WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slippery
or wet, the kick-down feature could cause the
driving wheels to spin, which could result in
skidding.
Coasting mode
Applies to: vehicles with S tronic gearbox
In coasting mode, you can use the vehicle's kinet­
ic energy to drive without using the accelerator
on certain stretches of road. This saves fuel by al­
lowing you to take your foot off the accelerator
earlier and let the vehicle coast (for instance
when approaching a speed restriction in a built­
up area).
Switching on coasting mode
Important: Selector lever must be in D, gradient
must be less than 12 %.

If you have selected the "on-board computer"
display, the message

the clutch at speeds above 20 km/h and lets the
vehicle coast without the engine braking effect.
The engine ticks over at idling speed while the ve­
hicle is coasting.
Stopping coasting mode
.,. Press the brake pedal or accelerator.
