Selecting transmission position

You can select transmission positions D, R
or N only when drive readiness is activated.

With the vehicle stationary, depress the
brake pedal before shifting out of P or N;
otherwise the shift command will not be
executed: shiftlock.

Hold the brake pedal down until start-
ing to drive; otherwise, the vehicle can

begin to move.

Shifting into D, R, N

Briefly press the selector lever in the desired
direction, beyond a resistance point if neces-
sary. When shifting out of P or into R, simulta-
neously push the unlock button

The engaged transmission position is displayed
on the selector lever.
The selector lever immediately returns to the
center position when released.

Shifting into P

Press button

When the vehicle is stationary and the
transmission is in the R, D, or M/S posi-

tion, if you disconnect the driver's seat safety
belt and open the driver's door without stepping
on any of the pedals, then the transmission
shifts into position P.

R Reverse

Select only with the vehicle stationary.
An interlock prevents inadvertent gearshifts
into transmission position R. To release the
lock, push the unlock button

During electric driving, please note that
pedestrians and other road users may fail

to notice the vehicle in the usual way due to the
lack of engine noise. For example, proceed with
particular caution when pulling into and out of a
parking space.

P Park

Select only with the vehicle stationary. The rear
wheels are locked.

The transmission automatically shifts into
P as soon as you switch off the engine.

Unless position N is selected and the remote
control is in the ignition lock.

N Neutral

Can be selected in automatic car washes, for
example. The vehicle can roll.

The transmission remains in N even after
the engine is switched off whenever you

leave the remote control in the ignition lock.
This function is used, for example, in a car wash,
refer to page

. After approx. 30 minutes P is

automatically engaged.

Shifting into N

It is possible to select N even when the ignition
is switched on.
It is thus possible to move the vehicle, e.g. in the
event of a malfunction, even if it is not possible
to activate drive readiness.
