Shifting
General information
Depending on the motorization, the RPM
during a shifting operation is adjusted auto-
matically as required for harmonious gear
changing.
Reverse gear
Select only when the vehicle is stationary.
To overcome the resistance push the gear-
shift lever dynamically to the left and en-
gage reverse gear with a forward shifting
movement.
Rolling or pushing the vehicle
In some situations, the vehicle is to roll
without its own power, for instance in a
car wash, or be pushed.
1. Turn on the ignition.
2. Press on the clutch pedal and shift out
of a forward gear or reverse.
3. Release the parking brake.
Steptronic transmission
Principle
The Steptronic transmission combines the

the possibility of manual shifting, if needed.
