Be aware of the followin g difference be tween
models built to US o r Canadian specifications :
• USA models : illumination of the in strument cluster (gauges and
needles), dash and center console around the gearshift lever is
controlled by a light sensor located in the instrument panel. The
instrument panel illum ination will automatically become dimmer
as the daylight fades away and eventually will go out completely
when outside light is very low . This is to remind you , the d river , to
s witch on the headlight s before it gets too dark.
• Canada models : instrument panel illum ination will stay br ight
regardle ss of the inten sity of ambient light . Always be aware of
c hanges in outside light conditions while you are driving . Respond
in time to fading dayli ght by turning the light switch to position
iD

headlights. •
Bi-Xenon headlights*
Afte r starting the engi ne, the b i- xeno n headlights are au tomatical ly
adjusted to the load and angle of the vehic le (for example, during

Selector lever positions
All the selector lever positions are explained in this
section.
Fig. 85 Display:
Selector lever posi ­
tions
The selector lever position is shown in the instrument cluster
display by highlighting the appropriate symbol.
P -Park lock
In this position the gears are mechanically locked.
The park lock must only be engaged with the vehicle
stationary
=>& .
To engage P and to remove the lever from this position, you must
depress the release button (button in the selector lever handle)
and
simultaneously you must step on the brake pedal.
R -reverse
In this position, reverse is engaged. Reverse gear must only be engaged with the vehicle
stationary and
the engine running at idle speed=>& .
To engage R, you have to depress the release button
and simulta­
neously step on the brake pedal. In the R position, the back -up lights
illuminate with the ignition on.
N -Neutral
The transmission is in neutral in this position .
D -Normal position for driving forward
In this position, the forward gears are automatically shifted up and
down, depending on engine load and vehicle speed.
To engage S from N, the brake pedal must be depressed at speeds
below 5 km/h or when the vehicle is stationary=>& .
In certain circumstances (driving in the mountains for example) it
can be beneficial to switch temporarily to the manual shift program
=>
page 103 in order to adjust the gear ratios to driving conditions
manually .
S -Sport setting
Th e S setting should be selected for sporting driving . The power
reserves of the engine can be fully exploited through later upshifts.
To engage S from N, the brake pedal must be depressed at speeds
below 5 km/h or when the vehicle is stationary =>& .
& WARNING
• Never place the selector lever in the R or P position while the
vehicle is moving -risk of an accident!
• With the engine running, it is necessary to hold the vehicle with
the foot brake in all selector lever positions (except P and Nl,
because even at idle speed the transfer of power is never
completely interrupted -the vehicle "creeps".
If the vehicle is
stationary and the transmission is engaged, the engine should
never be speeded up unintentionally (e.g. manually from under the _.,
