Sport Mode
This mode is adapted to "sporty" driving characteristics. The transmission upshifts at higher engine
speeds and less accelerator pedal pressure is required to initiate a downshift.
Economy Mode
This mode is used normally. The gearbox changes gears at a lower engine speed to achieve the best
possible fuel consumption.
"Lock-up"
The automatic gearbox has a "lock-up" function. It reduces engine speed and saves fuel. The "lock-up"
function can sometimes be felt as an additional gear change.

"Special Tips"
● For driving down steep hills and when driving for prolonged periods at low speeds, position L should
be selected. Avoid, however, repeated changes since this can cause overheating of the transmission oil.
For driving on long continuous uphill gradients, select position 3.
● Do not hold the car stationary on an incline by using the accelerator pedal. Instead, apply the hand
brake (parking brake). This prevents the transmission oil from becoming overheated.
● When towing a trailer, select shift position 3.
● The (E)conomy mode should be selected when the cruise control is engaged.
● Refer to Caution on page 4:6
