Automatic transmission*
Emergency operation 
(Limp-Home Mode)
If vehicle acceleration becomes less re-
sponsive or sluggish or the transmission 
no longer shifts, the transmission is most 
likely operating in limp-home (emergency 
operation) mode. In this mode only second 
gear and reverse gear can be selected.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location.
Move the gear selector lever to park 
position P.
Turn off the engine.
Wait at least 10 seconds before 
restarting.
Restart the engine.
Move the gear selector lever to 
position D (for second gear) or 
position R.
Have the transmission checked at an 
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center as 
soon as possible.
