Option/accessory, for more information, see Introduction.
Gear indicator
The gear currently being
used is displayed on the right
side of the instrument panel.
The "
S " symbol turns orange
if Sport mode is being used.
Reverse: position R
The vehicle must be stationary when position
R is selected.
Neutral: position N
No gear is engaged and the engine can be
started with the gear selector in this position.
Apply the parking brake if the vehicle is sta-
tionary with the gear selector in position N .
Drive: position D
D is the normal driving position. The car auto-
matically shifts between the various forward
gears, based on the level of acceleration and
speed. The car must be at a standstill when
shifting from position
R
to position
D
.
Geartronic: manual shifting (+S–)
Geartronic allows you to manually shift
among your vehicle's forward gears. Gear-
tronic can be selected at any time.
To shift gears manually, move the
gear selector to the side from
D
toward
+S–
. The
+S–
symbol in the
instrument panel will change from
white to orange and the number of the gear
currently being used ( 1 , 2 , 3 , etc.) will be dis-
played (see the following illustration).
•
To return to automatic shifting mode from
+S–
, move the gear selector to the side
toward D .

This option indicates when to shift up or
down to help conserve fuel. A white arrow will
appear above or below the number of the
current gear to prompt the driver to shift up
or down.
While driving
•
If you select the manual shifting position
while driving, the gear that was being
used in the Drive position will also initially
be selected in the manual shifting posi-
tion.
•
Move the gear selector forward (toward
+
)
to shift to a higher gear or rearward
(toward – ) to shift to a lower gear.
•
If you hold the gear selector toward "–",
the transmission will downshift one gear
at a time and will utilize the braking power
of the engine. If the current speed is too
high for using a lower gear, the downshift
will not occur until the speed has
decreased enough to allow the lower gear
to be used.
•
If you slow to a very low speed, the trans-
mission will automatically shift down.
Shiftlock: Neutral (N)
If the gear selector is in the
N
position and
the vehicle has been stationary for at least
3 seconds (irrespective of whether the engine
is running) then the gear selector is locked.
In order to move the gear selector from
N to
another gear position, the brake pedal must
be depressed and the ignition must be in at
least position II , see page 88.
