Automatic transmission*
̈ Press program mode selector
switch 1 repeatedly until the letter of
the desired program mode appears in
the multifunction display.
One-touch gearshifting
!
Never change the program mode when
the gear selector lever is out of
position P. This could result in a
change of driving characteristics for
which you may not be prepared.
Even with an automatic transmission, you
can change the gears manually and limit or
extend the gear range for automatic
shifting with the gear selector lever in
position D.
Select C for comfort driving:

range 1 is selected.

The last selected program
mode (C or S) is switched on when the
engine is restarted.

Traction and driving stability are
improved on icy roads.
Shift into reverse gear R or parking
position P only when the vehicle is
stopped.
Upshifts occur earlier even when
you give more gas. The engine then
operates at lower rpms and the
wheels are less likely to spin.
Avoid spinning of a drive wheel for an
extended period when driving off on
slippery road surfaces. This may cause
serious damage to the drivetrain which
is not covered by the Mercedes-Benz
Limited Warranty.
