In the following situations, SMG thinks for you:
Using shift paddles on steering wheel
>
Upshifts and downshifts are executed only
when they will result in a plausible combina-
tion of engine and vehicle speed; thus, for
example, a downshift that would cause the
engine to overrev will not be executed by
the system.
>
>
When the vehicle is stationary, the trans-
mission automatically downshifts into first
gear.
Shortly before dropping below a gear-
dependent minimum speed, the transmis-
sion downshifts automatically even without
your intervention.
To upshift, pull one of the shift paddles.
To downshift, press.

Dynamic Driving Control
The Dynamic Driving Control makes it possible
for your BMW to react in an even more perfor-
mance-oriented manner at the push of a button:
D Drive mode
In the Drive mode, all forward gears are shifted
automatically.
>
The engine responds more spontaneously
to accelerator pedal movements.
Shifting from Sequential mode to Drive mode:
press selector lever to the right toward D.
>
>
Gearshifts are faster.
Kick-down: for rapid acceleration, e.g. when
passing, press the accelerator pedal as far
down as it will go. You achieve maximum accel-
eration.
The engine speed range is used optimally in
the Drive mode.
>
Cruise control*
:
The stored speed is reached more quickly
when it is requested.
To switch back into the Sequential mode: press
selector lever to the right again toward D or shift
using the shifting paddles or the selector lever.
Activating system
Start off quickly on slopes. Do not hold
the vehicle on a hill by pressing the accel-
erator, but apply the handbrake instead. Other-
wise overheating can occur in the transmission
region.<
Gear changes
Using selector lever
>
>
To upshift, pull the selector lever back.

ward.
