Caution

The double clutch on the automatic gear box DSG is equipped with an overload
protection. If you make use of the uphill function on a vehicle which is stationary or
driving slowly uphill, it will result in an increase of thermal stress of the clutches.

In the event that they overheat, the warning light
 and a warning text page 37
appear in the information display*. In such a case bring the vehicle to a stop, switch off
the engine and wait until the warning light and the warning go out - risk of gearbox
damage! You can continue the trip as soon as the warning light and the warning go
out.
Selector lever positionsFig. 115 Selector lever / informatio n display: Selector lever positionsThe current selector lever position is indica ted in the information display of the instru-
ment cluster fig. 115 - right. In the positions D and S the gear you have already
engaged will be additionally displayed on the display.
- Parklock
The driven wheels are locked me chanically in this position.
The Parklock must only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary .
If you wish to move the selector lever into or out of this position, you must press the
Shiftlock button in the handle of the selector lever and at the same time depress the
brake pedal.
If the battery is used, the selector lever cannot be moved out of the position P. - Reverse gear
Reverse gear must only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary and the engine
idling  .
The brake pedal must be depressed and at the same time the Shiftlock must be
pressed, if you wish to obtain the selector lever positions R, P or N.
When the ignition is switched on an d the selector lever is in position R, the reverse
lights will come on.
- Neutral
The transmission is in Neutral in this position.
The brake pedal must be depressed (if the le ver is in its position for longer than 2
seconds) in order to move the se lector lever out of the position N into the position D
or R, with the ignition switched on, on a vehicle travelling at less than 5 km/hour or on
a stationary vehicle.
- Position for driving forward
When the selector lever is in this position, the forward gears are shifted up and down
automatically in line with engine load, vehicle speed and the dynamic shift
programme.
You must depress the brake pedal if you wish to move into position D from N when the
vehicle is travelling at less th an 5 km/hour or is stationary .
In certain circumstances (e.g. when driving in mountainous regions or when towing a
trailer) it may be beneficial to select the manual shift programme page 123 for a
short time in order to adapt the gearbox ratios manually to the driving situations.
- Position for sporty style of driving
Shifting up later into a higher gear makes it possible to fully exploit the power potential
of the engine. The gearbox also then shifts down at higher engine speeds as in the posi-
tion D.
The Shiftlock on the selector lever grip must be pressed when moving the selector
lever out of the position D into the position S.AP

the gearbox to switch over to this style of driving and shift down earlier with frequent
changes in gears in comparison to the moderate style of driving.
Selecting the most appropriate driving programme for the particular style of driving is
a continuous process. Irrespective of this it is, however, possible to switch or shift down
into a dynamic shift programme by depressi
ng the accelerator rapidly. The gearbox
shifts down into a lower gear matching th e speed of the car and this allows you to
accelerate rapidly (e.g. when overtaking) without having to depress the accelerator
pedal fully into the kickdown range. The original programme will be reactivated to
match your particular styl e of driving once the gearbox has shifted up again.
When driving in hilly regions, the gears are selected to match uphill and downhill
sections. This avoids the gearbox frequently shifting up an d down when negotiating an
uphill stretch. When driving downhill, it is possible to shift down into the Tiptronic
position, in order to exploit the engine brake torque.
Tiptronic
The Tiptronic allows the driver to also shift gears manually.Fig. 116 Selector lever: manual shifting / information display: manual shiftingThe selector lever position you have engaged is indicated in the information display of
the instrument cluster together with the engaged gear fig. 116 - right.Switching over to manual shifting– Push the selector lever to the right out of position D. After switching over, the
current engaged gear is indicated in the display.
Shifting up gears– One-touch forward of the selector lever (in the Tiptronic position) fig. 116 -
left.Shifting down gears– One-touch back of the selector lever (in the Tiptronic position) .
It is possible to switch over to manual bo th when the car is stationary and also when
driving.
When you accelerate, the gearbox shifts up automatically into the higher gear just
before the maximum permissible engine speed is reached.
If you select a lower gear, the automatic gear box does not shift down until there is no
risk of the engine overrevving.
If you operate the kickdown function, the gear box shifts into a lower gear in line with
the vehicle speed and engine speed.Emergency programme
An emergency programme exists in the event of a fault in the system.The gearbox operates in a corresponding emergency programme if there are func-
tional faults in the gearbox electronics. This is indicated by all of the segments in the
display lighting up or going out.
A functional fault can ha ve the following effect:
The gearbox only shifts into certain gears.

The reverse gear R cannot be used.

The manual shift programme (Tiptronic) is switched off in the emergency mode.
If the gearbox has switched over to emergency mode, drive to the nearest
specialist garage in order to have the fault rectified.

Phone PhonebookA phone phonebook is part of the mobile ph one preinstallation with voice control. In
the phone phonebook there are 2500 free memory locations available. This phone
phonebook can be used in line with the mobile telephone.
After the first connection of the telephone, the system begins to load the phone book
from the phone and the SIM card into the memory of the control unit.
Each time the telephone has establishe d a new connection with the hands-free
system, an update of the relevant phone b ook is performed. The updating can take a
few minutes. During this time the phone book, which was stored after the last update
was completed, is available. Newly stored telephone numbers are only shown after the
updating has ended.
If the number of contacts loaded exceeds 2 500, the phone book is not complete.
If a telephone event (e.g. incoming or outgoing call, dialogue of the voice control)
occurs during the updating procedure, the updating is interrupted. After the telephone
event has ended, the updating starts anew.
Connection of the mobile phone with the hands-free systemIn order to connect a mobile phone with th e hands-free system, it is necessary to
connect the telephone to the hands-free sy stem. Detailed information on this is
provided in the operating instructions of your mobile phone. The following steps must
be carried out for the connection:

the connection is established.
10)
– After ending the connection, confirm in the information display that a new user
profile was created.
If no more free space is available for creating a new user profile, delete an existing user
profile.
If you have not managed to connect your mobile phone with the hands-free system
within 3 minutes after switching on the igniti on, switch the ignition off and then again
on. The visibility of the hands-free system is established again for 3 minutes. The visi-
bility of the Bluetooth
® device is automatically switched off if the vehicle starts off or
if the mobile phone connects to the device.
During the connecting procedure, no other mobile phone may be connected with the
hands-free system.
Up to four mobile phones ca n be paired to the hands-free system, whereby only one
mobile phone can communicate with the hands-free system.
10)Some mobile phones have a menu, in which th e authorization for establishing a Bluetooth
®
connection is performed via the input of a code. If the input for the authorization is necessary, it
must always be performed when re-establishing the Bluetooth connection.

WARNING

The front seats and the head restraints must always be adjusted to match
the body size of the seat occupant as well as the seat belts must always be
correctly fastened in order to provide an optimal protection for you and your
occupants.

The driver must maintain a distance of at least 25 cm to the steering wheel
 page 138, fig. 123 . Not maintaining this minimum distance will mean that
the airbag system will not be able to properly protect you - hazard!

When driving, hold the st eering wheel with both hands firmly on the outer
edge in the 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock po sition. Never hold the steering wheel
firmly in the 12 o'clock position or in another way (e.g. in the middle of the
steering wheel or at the inner steering wheel edge). In such cases, injuries to the
arms, the hands and the head can occur when the driver airbag is deployed.

The seat backrests must not be angled too far back when driving otherwise
this will affect proper operation of the se at belts and of the airbag system - risk
of injury!

Ensure that there are no objects in the footwell as any objects may get
behind the pedals during a driving or braking manoeuvre. You would then no
longer be able to operate the clutch, to brake or accelerate.
Correct seated position for the front passenger
The fro n t p assen ger must mai n tai n a d i stan ce of a t l ea st 25 c m from th e
dash panel so that the airbag offers him the greatest possible safety it is
