Electronic driving programmes

■ Following a cold start, the operating temperature programme increases engine speed to quickly bring the catalytic converter to the required temperature. ■ The automatic neutral shift function automatically shifts to idling when the vehicle is stopped with a forward gear engaged.

■ The adaptive programme tailors gearshifting to the driving conditions, e.g. greater load or gradients.

Winter programme

Activate the Winter programme to assist starting off on a slippery road surface.

Activation

Press the button with P,
R, N, D or
3 engaged. The vehicle starts off in 3rd gear.

Deactivation

The Winter programme is switched off by:
■ pressing the button again,
■ manually selecting 2 or 1, ■ turning off the ignition, ■ or if the transmission oil temperature is too high.

Kickdown

If the accelerator pedal is pressed past the pressure point, the transmission shifts to a lower gear depending on engine speed.

Fault In the event of a fault, A illuminates. The transmission no longer shifts automatically. Continued travel is possible with manual shifting. 2nd gear is not available. Manual shifting:
1 = 1st gear. 2 = 3rd gear.

3, D = 4th gear.

Have the cause of the fault remedied by a workshop.
