Manual gearshifting
With manual gearshifting M selected,
system-controlled automatic gearshifting
is switched off and you need to change the
gears by upshifting or downshifting
manually using the gear selector lever or
the steering wheel gearshift control 12
.
! Allow the engine to warm up under low
load use. Do not place full load on the
engine until the operating temperature
has been reached.
Shift into reverse gear R or parking
position P only when the vehicle is
stopped.
Avoid spinning of a drive wheel for an
extended period when driving off on
slippery road surfaces. Otherwise, the
drivetrain could be damaged, which is
not covered by the smart Limited
Warranty.Activating manual gearshiftingXMove the gear selector lever to drive

Downshifting
GWarning!
On slippery road surfaces, never downshift
in order to obtain braking action. This
could result in drive wheel slip and
reduced vehicle control. Your vehicle’s ABS
will not prevent this type of loss of control.

Emergency operation (limp-home
mode)
In this mode only a certain gear or a
certain gear combination can be selected.
This mode is triggered in case of
transmission malfunctions and enables you
driving to the nearest workshop such as a
smart center.
If vehicle acceleration becomes less
responsive or sluggish or the transmission
no longer shifts, the transmission is most
likely operating in limp-home (emergency
operation) mode. The transmission
position indicator flashes and the ¬
symbol appears in the multifunction
display.
Driving in limp-home mode:XMove the gear selector lever to drive
position D ( Y page 79).XContinue to drive.XHave the transmission checked at an
authorized smart center as soon as
possible.
i It is possible that a gear combination
including the reverse gear can not be
selected. Keep in mind when parking,
that reversing the vehicle might be
impossible.
In case of a minor transmission
malfunction, it might be possible to teach-
in the transmission in order to restore the
normal transmission mode.
i If the attempt to teach-in the
transmission fails, you cannot continue
to drive. Therefore we strongly
recommend that you have the
transmission taught-in at a qualified
workshop or at an authorized smart
center.

i Canada vehicles: The outside
temperature display shows °C instead
of °F.
The outside temperature display appears
in the multifunction display continuously.
A change of the outside temperature will be
displayed with delay.
GWarning!
The outside temperature display is not
designed as an ice-warning device and is
therefore unsuitable for that purpose.
86Instrument cluster>> Controls.* optional451_AKB; 3; 22, en-USd2ureepe,Version: 2.11.8.12009-07-27T09:36:34+02:00 - Seite 86

Indicated temperatures just above the
freezing point do not guarantee that the
road surface is free of ice. The road may
still be icy, especially in wooded areas or
on bridges. Your vehicle could start to skid
if you do not adjust your driving style
accordingly.
Therefore, always adjust your driving style
to the prevailing road and weather
conditions.
Freeze warning (Canada vehicles only)
When the outside temperature falls below
3 ¥ , the multifunction display makes you
aware of the fact that the road may be icy.
An additional freeze warning, i.e. an ice
crystal symbol, in the multifunction
display flashes. After 60 seconds, the
freeze warning stops flashing but
continues to be displayed. When the
outside temperature rises above 3 ¥, the
freeze warning goes out.
Fuel level display
Example illustration (U.S. vehicles)
The fuel level display shows the tank’s fuel
level with the aid of eight segments. The
number of dark segments indicates the fuel
level in the tank. If all eight segments are
dark, the tank is full.
You are driving on reserve fuel if there are
no more than 1.0 US gal (3.78 l) of fuel in the
tank.
If this occurs,
R the fuel pump symbol in the fuel level
display flashes
R the reserve fuel indicator shows the fuel
level in the tank in 0.1 US gal (0.5 l)
increments
For selecting the reserve fuel indicator to
be displayed in the status indicator, see
