Mercedes Benz 2004 g-class 用户手册

With the gear selector lever in position D, 
you can limit the transmission’s gear range 
by pressing the gear selector lever to the 
left (D-), and reverse the gear range limit 
by pressing the gear selector lever to the 
right (D+).

The selected gear range will appear in the 
multifunction display. If you press on the 
accelerator when the engine has reached 
its rpm limit, the transmission will upshift 
beyond any gear range limit selected.

!

If the transfer case is in off-road driving 
position LOW, the automatic transmis-
sion will not shift up automatically, 
even when the engine has reached the 
speed limit for that gear. There is a risk 
of damaging the engine.

It is very important to make sure the 
permissible engine speed is not ex-
ceeded.

Park position 

Gear selector lever position 
when the vehicle is parked. Place 
gear selector lever in position P 
only when vehicle is stopped. 
The park position is not intended 
to serve as a brake when the 
vehicle is parked. Rather, the 
driver should always set the 
parking brake in addition to 
placing the gear selector lever in 
position P to secure the vehicle.
