104 Automatic Transmission
Automatic
Transmission
tiptronic
Introduction
The automatic transmission is controlled elec­
tronically. The transmission upshifts or down­
shifts automatically depending on which drive program is selected.
When a
moderate driving style is used, the
transmission selects the most economical driving mode. It will then change up early and
delay the downshifts to give better fuel econ­
omy.
The transmission switches to a sporty mode
after a k ick-down or when the driver uses a
sporty driving style characterized by quick ac­
celerator pedal movements, heavy accelera­
tion, frequent changes in speed and traveling
at the maximum speed.
If desired, the driver can also select the gears
manually (tiptronic mode ) ¢ page 108.
In the tiptronic transmission, power is trans­
ferred by a torque converter.
Selector lever positions
Fig . 115 D isp lay in the instrument cluster: selector
leve r pos itio n
The selector lever position engaged appears
next to the selector lever as well as in the in­
strument cluster display.
P- Park
In this selector lever position the transmis­
sion is mechanically locked. Engage P only when
the vehicle is
completely stopped¢ &
in Driving the automatic transmission on
page 106.
To shift in or out of posit ion P, you must first
press and hold the brake pedal and then press
the re lease button in the selector lever handle
wh ile moving the selector lever to or from P.
You can shift out of this position only with the
ignition on.
R -Reverse
Select R only when the vehicle is at a full stop
and the engine is running at idle speed¢ & in
Driving the automatic transmission on
page 106.
Before you move the selector lever to R, press
both the button in the hand le of the se lector
lever
and the brake pedal at the same time.
When the ignition is on, the backup lights illu­
minate when the selector lever is moved into
R.
N -Neutral
Th e transmission is in neutral in this position.
Shift to this position for standing with the
brakes applied
¢ & in Driving the automatic
transmission on page 106 .
When the vehicle is stat ionary or at speeds
below 1 mph (2 km/h), you must always apply
the footbrake before and wh ile moving the
lever out of N.
D/S - Normal position for driving forward
In the D/S position, the transmission can be
operated either in the normal mode D or in
the sport mode 5. To select the sport mode 5,
pull the selector lever back brie fly. Pulling the
lever back again will select the normal mode
D. The instrument cluster disp lay shows the
se lected driving mode.
In the normal mode D, the transm ission auto­
matically selects the suitable gear ratio.
It de­
pends on engine load, vehicle speed and driv­
ing style.
Select the sport mode 5 for sporty driving.
The vehicle makes full use of the engine's

power. Shi fting may become noticeable when
accelerating .
When the veh icle is stationary or at speeds
be low 1 mph (2 km/h), you must always apply
the foot brake before and while moving the
lever to D/S out of N.
A WARNING
Read and follow all WARNINGS ¢.& in

A WARNING
-
- The vehicle can also roll when the engine
is stopped .
- Unintended vehicle movement can cause
serious injury.
- Never leave your vehicle with the engine
running while in gear . If you must leave
your vehicle when the engine is running,

activate the parking brake and move the
selector lever to P.
- Power is sti ll transmitted to the wheels
when the engine is running at idle. To
prevent the vehicle from "creeping", you
must keep your foot on the brake when
the engine is running and the selector
lever is in D/S or R or "tiptronic" mode is
selected.
- Do not press the accelerator pedal when changing the selector lever pos ition
wh ile the vehicle is stat ionary and the
engine is running .

- Before driv ing down a steep slope, re -
duce your speed and shift into a lower
gear with "tiptronic".
- Do not ride the brakes or press the brake
peda l too often or too long when dr iv ing
down a hill. Constant braking causes the brakes to ove rheat and substant ially re­
duces braking performance, increases
braking distance or ca uses comp lete fail ­
vre of the brake system .
- To prevent the vehicle from rolling back
when stopping on inclines, always hold it in place with the brake pedal or parking
brake.
- Never hold the vehic le on an incline with
a slipping clutch . The clutch opens auto ­
matically when it becomes too hot from
the overload. An indicator lamp
[O] illu­
minates and a dr iver message appears
~ page 108 when the clutch is overload­
ed .
- If the engine must remain running, never have any driv ing position engaged when
check ing under the hood.
M ake sure the
selector lever has secure ly engaged and
is locked in P with the parking bra ke set
¢ page 213 . Otherwise, any increase in
engine speed may set the vehicle in mo ­
t ion, even with the park ing brake ap­
plied.
(D Note
- When stopping on an incline, do not try to hold the vehicle in place by pressing
Aut omat ic Tr ans missio n 107
