Transmission
The transmission is part of the vehicle's drive- line (power transmission) between the engineand the drive wheels. The function of thetransmission is to change gears dependingon speed and power needs.
The vehicle has an 8-speed automatic trans- mission. The number of gears allows theengine's torque and power band to be effec-tively utilized. Two of the gears are overdrive gears that save fuel when driving at a constant engine speed.Both the gear selector and the steering wheelpaddles can be used to shift up or down man-ually. The selected gear selector position willbe displayed in the instrument panel.

position. This makes it possible to wash thevehicle in an automatic car wash.
Reverse – R
Select R when backing up. The vehicle must
be stationary when R is selected.
Neutral – N
In N position, the vehicle can roll freely. The
vehicle can be started when it is in N position.
Apply the parking brake if the vehicle is sta- tionary with the gear selector in the N posi-
tion. To move to another gear position when N is
selected, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition in mode II. For vehicles with the small gear selector, the engine must berunning.
D
drive mode
D is the normal driving gear position. The
transmission shifts up or down automatically depending on acceleration and speed. The vehicle must be stationary when the gear selector is moved from R to D.
Manual position – M
Overview of gear shift pattern in the instrument panel for large gear selector.
With position M, it is possible to shift gears
manually. Engine braking will occur when the accelerator pedal is released. The M position is selected by moving the gear
selector to the side from D to the end position
at " ±".

Eco drive mode
Eco drive mode can help make driving more
fuel-efficient and eco-friendly.
Use this mode to save fuel and promote eco- friendly driving. When
Eco mode is activated, the following
characteristics are modified:
The automatic transmission's shifting points.
Engine control and accelerator pedalresponse.
Eco Coast functionality is activated andengine braking is disabled when the accel-erator pedal is released at speedsbetween 65 and 140 km/h(40 and 87 mph).
Some of the climate system settings willbe reduced or switched off.
Information will be shown in the ECOgauge in the instrument panel to help pro-mote more eco-friendly and economicaldriving.
Coast function Eco CoastEco Coast essentially deactivates engine brak-ing, allowing the vehicle's kinetic energy to beused to roll greater distances. When the driverreleases the accelerator pedal, the transmis-sion is automatically disengaged from theengine. Engine speed is reduced to idlingspeed to reduce fuel consumption. This function is most effective in driving situa-tions where the vehicle can roll freely for along distance e.g. on roads with slight down-grades or when a decrease in speed is antici-pated such as when approaching an area witha lower speed limit.
Activating Eco Coast
The function is activated when the accelerator pedal is fully released and the following condi-tions are met:
Eco drive mode is activated.
The gear selector is in
D.
The vehicle's speed is approximately 65-140 km/h (40-87 mph).
The gradient of the downgrade is less thanapproximately 6%.
COASTING will be displayed in the instrument
panel when Eco Coast is being used.
Limitations
Eco Coast is not available if
the engine and/or transmission are not at normal working temperatures
the gear selector is moved from
D to man-
ual shifting mode
the vehicle's speed is not within the65-140 km/h (40-87 mph) range
the gradient of the downgrade is morethan approximately 6%
the steering wheel paddles
* are being
used for manual shifting.
Deactivating and turning off Eco Coast
In certain situations, it may be advisable to deactivate or turn off Eco Coast so that enginebraking can be used. These situations mightinclude driving down steep hills or beforepassing another vehicle to help ensure thiscan be done as safely as possible. Deactivate Eco Coast by
pressing the accelerator or brake pedal
moving the gear selector to manual mode
using the steering wheel paddles
* to shift.
Turn off Eco Coast by
switching to another drive mode
*
deactivating
Eco drive mode in Function
view.
It is possible to roll short distances even with- out Eco Coast in order to help conserve fuel.However, for the best fuel economy, EcoCoast should be activated and used to rolllonger distances.
Cruise control Eco CruiseWhen cruise control is activated in the Ecodrive mode, the vehicle's acceleration and deceleration will be slower than in other drivemodes to help further conserve fuel. Becauseof this, the vehicle's actual speed may beslightly above or below the set speed.
