Driving
In certain circumstances (i.e. traffic hold-ups,
short stops, etc.) and to improve comfort, the
vehicle can start up in the D2 gear ratio
1) .
Sport mode (S) must be selected for a sporty
driving style. This setting makes use of the en-
gine's maximum power output. When accel-
erating the gear shifts will be noticeable.
Press the brake pedal to move the selector
lever from N to D/S when the vehicle is sta-
tionary or at speeds below 3 km/h (2 mph)

Under certain circumstances (e.g. when driv-
ing in mountains) it can be advantageous to
switch temporarily to tiptronic mode

page 236 , in order to manually select
gear ratios to suit the driving conditions.
WARNING
●
Take care not to accidentally press the
accelerator pedal when the vehicle is stop-
ped. The vehicle could otherwise start
moving immediately (in some cases even if
the parking brake is engaged) resulting in
the risk of an accident.
●
Never move the selector lever to R or P
when driving. Failure to follow this instruc-
tion could result in an accident.
●
With selector lever in any position (ex-
cept P) the vehicle must always be held
with the foot brake when the engine is run-
ning. This is because an automatic gearbox
still transmits power even at idling speed,
and the vehicle tends to “creep”. The ac-
celerator pedal must on no account be
pressed inadvertently when a gear is en-
gaged with the vehicle stationary. The ve-
hicle could otherwise start moving immedi-
ately (in some cases even if the parking
brake is engaged) resulting in the risk of an
accident.
●
While you are selecting a gear and the
vehicle is stopped with the engine running,
do not accelerate. Failure to follow this in-
struction could result in an accident.
●
As a driver you should never leave your
vehicle if the engine is running and a gear is
engaged. If you have to leave your vehicle
while the engine is running, you must apply
the handbrake and engage the parking
lock (P).
● To avoid accidents, apply the handbrake
and put the selector lever in position P be-
fore opening the bonnet and working on the
vehicle with the engine running. Please al-
ways observe the important safety warn-
ings

compartment .
Note
● If the selector lever is moved accidental-
ly to N when driving, release the accelera-
tor and let the engine speed drop to idling
before selecting gear range D or S again.
● Should the power supply to the selector
lever be interrupted in position P, the selec-
tor lever will be locked. If this should hap-
pen the manual release can be used
