Transmission positions
B
Park position
This secures the vehicle against roll-
ing away when stopped.
Only shift the transmission to posi-
tion P when the vehicle is stationary
(
Y
page 145). The parking lock
should not be used as a brake when
parking. In order to secure the vehi-
cle, always apply the electric parking
brake in addition to the parking lock.
Park position P is automatically
engaged if:
R
you switch off the engine using the
key and remove the key
R
you switch off the engine using the
key or using the Start/Stop button
and open the driver's door or front-
passenger door
R
you open the driver's door when
the vehicle is stationary or when
driving at a very low speed and the
transmission is in position D or R
In the event of a malfunction of the
vehicle's electronics, the transmis-
sion may lock in position P. Have the
vehicle electronics checked immedi-
ately at a qualified specialist work-
shop.
C
Reverse gear
You can shift the transmission to
position R only when the vehicle is
stationary (
Y
page 145).
A
Neutral
Do not shift the transmission to N
while driving. Otherwise, the auto-
matic transmission could be dam-
aged.
No power is transmitted from the
engine to the drive wheels.
Releasing the brake pedal will allow
you to move the vehicle freely, e.g. to
push it or tow it.
If ESP
®
is deactivated or faulty: shift
the transmission to position N if the
vehicle is in danger of skidding, e.g.
on icy roads.
If you switch the engine off with the
transmission in position R or D, the
automatic transmission shifts to N
automatically.
!
Rolling in neutral N can lead to
damage to the transmission.
7
Drive
The automatic transmission changes
gear automatically. All forward gears
are available.
Driving tips
Changing gear
The automatic transmission shifts to the indi-
vidual gears automatically when it is in trans-
mission position D. Gearshifting is determined
by:
R
the selected drive program
R
the position of the accelerator pedal
R
the road speed
Accelerator pedal position
Your driving style influences how the automatic
transmission shifts gear:
R
little throttle: early upshifts
R
more throttle: late upshifts
Double-clutch function
When shifting down, the double-clutch function
is active regardless of the drive program. The
double-clutch function reduces load change
