Controls in detail
Automatic transmission
Accelerator position
Kickdown
Emergency operation (Limp home
mode)
Use kickdown when you want maximum
acceleration.
Your driving style influences the transmis-
sion’s shifting behavior:
If vehicle acceleration worsens or the
transmission no longer shifts, the trans-
mission is most likely operating in limp
home (emergency operation) mode. In this
mode, only 2nd gear and reverse gear can
be activated.

Press the accelerator past the point of
resistance.
Less throttle
More throttle
Earlier upshifting

reached the desired speed.

Stop the vehicle.

starting.
̈
̈

2nd gear) or R.

Have the transmission checked at an
authorized Mercedes-Benz Center as
soon as possible.
