You can drive the car as with a con-
ventional automatic transmission
(including Adaptive Transmission
Control), but you can also shift
between gears manually if preferred.
To select individual gears manually,
move the selector lever to the left,
away from position D, and into the M/
S gate. This initially activates the
Sport program of the automatic trans-
mission. As soon as you push the
selector lever briefly in direction "+" or
"–", the Steptronic shifts the transmis-
sion up or down a gear.
To return to the automatic mode,
push the selector lever to the left, into
position D.

The display (see picture) shows selec-
tor lever positions P R N D or, in the
Sport program, SD. When in the man-
ual shift mode, the gears are shown
as M1...M5.
For notes on operation in the M/S
gate, see Page 70, and for details of
the Adaptive program see Page 71.
Moving the selector lever
A lock prevents the lever from being
moved to positions R and P acciden-
tally; the lock is released by pressing
the button on the front of the selector
lever handle (arrow).
The engine can only be started in
selector lever positions P or N.
Before selecting any drive position,
apply the foot brake, since the car will
always tend to creep with a gear
selected, even at idle speed.
When a drive ratio (forward or reverse)
is engaged, wait until the transmission
is felt to engage before releasing the
brake and accelerating.
