E is characterized by the
following:
R
optimal fuel consumption resulting from
the automatic transmission shifting up
sooner
R
the vehicle pulling away more gently in
forward and reverse gears, unless the
accelerator pedal is depressed fully
R
increased sensitivity. This improves driving
stability on slippery road surfaces, for
example
R
the automatic transmission shifting up
sooner. This results in the vehicle being
driven at lower engine speeds and the
wheels being less likely to spin
Shift ranges
Introduction
When the automatic transmission is in
position
D, it is possible to restrict or
derestrict the shift range (
Y
page 138).
The shift range selected is shown in the
multifunction display. The automatic
transmission shifts only as far as the selected
gear.

You can use the engine's braking
effect.

To use the braking effect of the
engine on downhill gradients and
for driving:
R
on steep mountain roads
R
in mountainous terrain
R
in arduous conditions
4
To use the braking effect of the
engine on extremely steep downhill
gradients and on long downhill
stretches
Restricting the shift range
X
Press the selector lever to the left towards
D–.
The automatic transmission shifts down
one gear and restricts the shift range to the
relevant gear.
i
If the engine exceeds the maximum
engine speed when shifting down, the
automatic transmission protects against
engine damage by not shifting down.
i
If the maximum engine speed for the shift
range is reached and you continue to
accelerate, the automatic transmission
shifts up in order to prevent the engine
from overrevving, even if the shift range is
restricted.
