Driving a car with a manual gearbox
Reverse gear may only be engaged when the vehicle is stationary.
When engine is running, depress clutch fully and wait a few
seconds before moving gear lever, to prevent grating noises.
When reverse gear is engaged with ignition on, the reversing lights
come on.
Some model versions may have 6 gears*. Its layout is indicated on
the selector lever.N No

depending on the

⇒page 116. In this mode, the gearbox will shift up
later to make full use of the engine power reserves.
The downward shift occurs at a higher rate of revolutions than in
the economy programmes.
The gear box is self adapting, and continuously selects the most
suitable gear programme. At the same time, the driver can also
make the gear box switch to a more “sporty” programme by
pressing the accelerator quickly. Depending on road speed, this
makes the gearbox shift down early into a lower gear for quicker
acceleration (for instance to overtake another vehicle), without
having to press the accelerator all the way down to the kick-down
position. After the gear box has shifted back up it returns to the
original programme, depending on your style of driving.
The gear box adapts the gear shifts for uphill and downhill
gradients. This prevents the gearbox from shifting up and downunnecessarily on uphill gradients. On downhill gradients, the
gearbox shifts down into a lower gear when the driver presses the
brake pedal. This makes use of the braking effect of the engine
without having to change down manually
N No
ot
te
e
Depending on road resistance, for example when trailer towing or on uphill
stretches, a programme is automatically selected which provides more
power by shifting into a lower gear. This prevents frequent gear changes.
K
Selector lever lock
In positions “P P
” and “N N
” with the ignition switched on the selector
lever is locked. To move the selector lever out of these positions
the brake pedal must be depressed and the selector lever button
pushed-in. This prevents a gear being engaged inadvertently and
the vehicle unintentionally moving off.
A delay circuit prevents the selector lever from locking when it is
moved quickly past the “N N
” position (for instance from “R R
” to “D D
”).
This enables for example the vehicle to be “rocked” out of a
“bogged down” position. The shift lock only locks the selector
lever if it is left in the “N N
” position for more than about 1 second
without the brake pedal being depressed.
At speeds above 5 km/h the selector lever lock is automatically
switched-off in position “N N
”.

possible to over-rev the engine. K
Kick-down device
The kick-down device gives maximum acceleration. When the
accelerator pedal is pressed right down past the full throttle
position, depending on road speed and engine speed, the box
changes down into a lower gear. The shift into the next higher gear
then takes place as soon as the maximum specified engine speed
is reached.

When the vehicle is stopped for a short period, for example at
trafficlights, it is only necessary to apply the brakes. It is not
necessary to move selector lever to “N N
”. The engine should
however only be running at idling speed.

On a gradient the handbrake should be applied firmly first and
then the parking lock engaged. This will ensure that the locking
mechanism is not too heavily loaded and makes the lock easier to
disengage.

On vehicles with automatic gearbox the engine cannot be started

In case of an electronic failure of the gearbox, emergency programs
are activated depending on the type of failure.
• The gear box continues to shift automatically, but strong jerking
is noticeable. Consult a Technical Service Centre.
• The gear box no longer shifts automatically.
In this case, you can shift manually. Only the 3 3r
rd
d
gear is available
in the positions "D D
", "3 3
" and "2 2
" of the selector lever.
In the positions "1 1
" and "R R
" of the selector lever, the 1 1s
st
t
gear and
reverse gear, respectively, are available as customary.
It may happen that the gear oil is overheated when the torque
converter has to work harder, especially if2 2n
nd
d
gear is missing.
In such cases, go to a Technical Service Centre as soon as possible.
