Manual mode M can be activated
from position D in each driving
situation and speed.

Press button M.

gears manually.
Pull right paddle + to shift to a higher

If a higher gear is selected when

the shift is not executed. This can
cause a message in the Driver
Information Centre.
In manual mode, no automatic
shifting to a higher gear takes place
at high engine revolutions.

Danger
If using a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front passenger
seat, the airbag system for the
front passenger seat must be
deactivated. This also applies to
certain forward-facing child
restraint systems as indicated in
the tables.
We recommend a child restraint
system which is tailored specifically to
the vehicle. For further information,
contact your workshop.
