WARNING
- Never run the engine in confined spaces.
The exhaust gases are toxic -risk of poison
ing!
- Never switch off the engine until the vehicle
is stationary.
- The brake servo and the power steering sys
tem work only when the engine is running.
You need more strength to steer and brake
the vehicle when the engine is switched off.
This would mean a greater risk of accidents
and serious injury, because you cannot steer
and brake in the normal manner.
Avoid high engine speeds, full throttle and ex
treme load conditions until the engine has
reached its normal operating temperature;
otherwise this can damage the engine.
{:!)) Note
- When starting from cold the engine may be
a little noisy for the first few seconds until
oil pressure has built up in the hydraulic
tappets. This is quite normal and no cause
for concern.
- If you leave the vehicle with the ignition
switched on, it will be switched off auto
matically after a while. Please note that
electrical equipment such as the exterior
lighting will also be switched off.

Start/stop system
Description
Applies to vehicles: with start/stop system
The start/stop system can help to save fuel and
reduce CO2 emissions. Driving
In start/stop mode, the engine is switched off
automatically when the vehicle stops, e.g. at traf
fic lights. The ignition remains on during this
stop phase. The engine is automatically started
on demand.
The start/stop system is automatically activated
each time you switch on the ignition.
Basic conditions for start/stop mode
- The driver's door must be closed.

gearbox
Automatic gearbox
S tronic
Introduction
Applies to vehicles: with S tronic gearbox
The vehicle is equipped with an electronically
controlled dual-clutch gearbox (S tronic). Torque
between the engine and the gearbox is transmit
ted via two independent clutches. They enable
smooth, uninterrupted acceleration of the vehi
cle.
The gearbox shifts up or down automatically and
continuously adapts the timing of the gear
changes to your driving style.
When you drive at moderate speeds the gearbox
will select the most economical shift programme.
It will then change up early and delay the down
shifts to give better fuel economy.
If you drive at higher speeds with heavy accelera
tion, if you open the throttle quickly, or if you use
the kick-down or the car's maximum speed, the
gearbox will automatically select the more "spor
ty" shift programmes.
If desired, you can also select the gears manually
(tiptronic mode).
Selector lever positions
Applies to vehicles: with S tronic gearbox
Fig. 76 Instrument cluster: Selector lever positions
The current selector lever position and the cur
rent gear are shown in the infotainment display.
P - Parking lock
When the selector lever is in this position, the
driven wheels are locked mechanically. The park-
70 ing
lock must only be engaged when the vehicle
is stationary ¢.&. .
The interlock button (the button in the selector
lever handle) must be pressed in and the brake
pedal must be depressed before moving these
lector lever either in or out of position P.
R - Reverse gear
Reverse gear must only be engaged when the ve
hicle is stationary and the engine is idling ¢.&..
To move the selector lever to position R, press in
the interlock button and at the same time press
the brake pedal. The reversing light comes on
when the selector lever is in the R position with
the ignition on.
N - Neutral
In this position, the gearbox is in neutral.
DIS -Drive/Sport (standard position for
driving forwards)
In selector lever position D/S, the gearbox can be
operated in either the standard drive mode (D) or
in sport mode (S). To select sport mode (S), brief
ly pull the selector lever back. The gearbox will
switch back to drive mode (D) if you pull these
lector lever again. The selected driving mode is
shown on the infotainment display.
In the standard drive mode (D), the gearbox au
tomatically selects the best gear ratio. This de
pends on the engine load, the road speed and the
driving style.
Select sport mode (S) if you wish to take full ad
vantage of the car's performance. This setting
makes use of the engine's maximum power out
put. When accelerating the gear shifts may be
noticeable.
Press the brake pedal when moving the selector
lever from N to D/S if the vehicle is stationary or
at speeds below 2 km/h ¢ .&..

power even at idling speed, and the vehicle
tends to "creep" -risk of accident!
- The accelerator pedal must on no account
be pressed inadvertently when a gear is en
gaged with the vehicle stationary . The vehi
cle could otherwise start moving immedi
ately (in some cases even if the parking
brake is engaged) and possibly cause an ac
cident.
- Do not press the accelerator while selecting
a gear with the vehicle stationary and the
engine running, as this could cause an acci
dent.
- The driver should never get out of the vehi
cle when the engine is running and a gear is
