For more information on driving with an 
automatic transmission, see “Automatic 
transmission*” (

Your vehicle’s transmission adapts its gear 
shifting process to your individual driving 
style by continually adjusting the shift 
points up or down. These shift point adjust-
ments are performed based on current 
operating and driving conditions.

If the operating conditions change, the 
automatic transmission reacts by 
adjusting its shift program.

The gear selector lever is located on the 
lower part of the center console.

P Park position
R Reverse gear

Make sure absolutely no objects are ob-

structing the pedals’ range of movement. 

Keep the driver’s footwell clear of all obsta-

cles. If there are any floormats or carpets in 

the footwell, make sure the pedals still have 

sufficient clearance.

During sudden driving or braking maneuvers 

the objects could get caught between be-

neath the pedals. You could then no longer 

brake or accelerate. This could lead to acci-

dents and injury.
