R Reverse
Sport program and manual operation
Select only when the vehicle is stationary.
N Neutral
You can select this position, for example, in car
washes. The vehicle can roll.
Transmission remains in N even after the
ignition is switched off whenever you
leave the remote control in the ignition lock.
This function is useful in automatic car washes,
etc.
After approx. 30 minutes the system automati-
cally shifts into position P. Pay attention to the
messages on the Info Display.
Switching off engine, refer to page 58.<
D Drive, automatic position
This is the mode recommended for normal
vehicle operation. All forward gears are avail-
able.
Press button 1 on the steering wheel.
The sport program is activated and S appears
on the Info Display. This program is recom-
mended for a performance-oriented driving
style.
Under normal operating conditions, the fuel
consumption is lowest when driving in
position D.
Kick-down
Press button 1 again to switch into the manual
mode and then into the automatic program
again.
The kick-down mode provides you with maxi-
mum acceleration.
Press the accelerator pedal beyond the full-
throttle resistance point.
In the manual mode, the Steptronic changes
gears when one of the buttons 2 on the front or
back of the steering wheel is briefly pressed.
The Info Display shows the manual ranges M1
through M6.
Upshifts and downshifts are executed only
when they will result in a plausible combination
of engine and vehicle speed; thus, for example,
the system will not execute a downshift that
would cause the engine to overrev. In this case,
the requested gear appears briefly on the Info
Display, followed by the current gear.
Press button 1 again to switch back into the
automatic program.

This manual has been invaluable! My BMW did not have any manuals and I didn't have a clue on how to utilize the various features. I am learning more by the day and convinced without this manual I would not have enjoyed all the luxuries this beautiful machine has to offer.
