Automatic gearbox
Introduction
Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
The vehicle is equipped with an electronically
controlled dual-clutch gearbox (S tronic). Torque
between the engine and the gearbox is transmit­
ted via two independent clutches. They enable
smooth, uninterrupted acceleration of the vehi­
cle.
The gearbox shifts up or down automatically and
continuously adapts the timing of the gear
changes to your driving style.
When you drive at moderate speeds the gearbox
will select the most economical shift pro­
gramme. It will then change up early and delay
the downshifts to give better fuel economy.
If you drive at higher speeds with heavy accelera­
tion, if you open the throttle quickly, or if you use
the kick-down or the car's maximum speed, the
gearbox will automatically select the more "spor­
ty" shift programmes.
If desired, you can also select the gears manually
(tiptronic mode).

If the vehicle does not move in the desired
direction, the system may have failed to en­
gage the gear correctly. In this case, press
the brake pedal and select the gear again.
- If the vehicle still does not move in the de­
sired direction, a system malfunction has
occurred. Seek professional assistance and
have the system checked.

Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
The gearbox changes the forward gears up and
down automatically.
Fig. 81 Detail of the centre console: Selector lever with in­
terlock button
Starting the engine
.,. The selector lever must be in position P or N. In
the case of low outside temperatures (be-
low -10 °(), the engine can only be started
when the selector lever is in position P.
Driving away from a standstill
.,. Press and hold the brake pedal.
.,. Press
and hold the interlock button (the button
in the selector lever handle), set the selector
lever to the desired position (e.g. D) ¢ page 77
and release the interlock button.
.,. Wait
for the gearbox to engage the gear (a
slight movement can be felt).
.,. Release the brake and press the accelerator
¢ .&, .
There are several convenient functions to help
you drive away on gradients ¢page 75.
Stopping briefly
.,. Press the brake pedal to hold the vehicle when
stationary (for instance at traffic lights). Driving
.,. Do not press the accelerator .
.,. To prevent the vehicle from rolling away, apply
the parking brake before moving off on steep
gradients ¢.&. and ¢(D.
.,. As soon as you accelerate as normal with your
seat belt fastened, the parking brake will auto­
matically be released and the vehicle will start
moving.
Stopping/parking the car
If you open the driver's door while the selector
lever is not in position P, the vehicle can roll
away. The message Shift to P, otherwise vehicle
can roll away. Doors do not lock if lever is not in
P appears on vehicles with convenience key*. A
buzzer will also sound .
.,. Press and hold the brake pedal¢ .&, .
.,. Apply the parking brake .
.,. Move
the selector lever to P.
In some situations (such as when driving on
mountain roads) it can be advantageous to
switch temporarily to the manual shift pro­
gramme so that the gear ratios can be selected
manually to suit the driving conditions
¢page 81.
On level ground it is sufficient to move the selec­
tor lever to P. On a gradient the parking brake
should be applied first and the selector lever
should be moved to P ¢ page 74. This reduces
the load on the locking mechanism and makes it
easier to move the selector lever out of position
P
A WARNING
- The driver should never get out of the vehi­
cle when the engine is running and a gear is
engaged. If you have to leave your vehicle
while the engine is running, you must apply
the parking brake and engage the parking
lock P.
- If the engine is running and a gear is engag­
ed (D/S or R) or the vehicle is in "tiptronic"
mode, you will need to hold the car with the
footbrake. Otherwise, the car will "creep"
forwards as the power transmission is not

the next higher gear is delayed until the engine
reaches maximum rpm.
A WARNING
Please note that if the road surface is slippery
or wet, the kick-down feature could cause the
driving wheels to spin, which could result in
skidding.
Coast ing mode
Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
In coasting mode, you can use the vehicle's kinet­
ic energy to drive without using the accelerator
on certain stretches of road. This saves fuel by al­
lowing you to take your foot off the accelerator
earlier and let the vehicle coast (for instance
when approaching a speed restriction in a built­
up area).
Switching on coa sting mode
Important: Selector lever must be in D, gradient
must be less than 12 %.
� Select efficiency mode in drive select*
¢page 100 (you only have to do this once).
� Take your foot off the accelerator.
If you have selected the "on-board computer"
display, the message Coasting mode will then
appear. The gearbox automatically disengages
the clutch at speeds above 20 km/h and lets the
vehicle coast without the engine braking effect.
The engine ticks over at idling speed while the ve­
hicle is coasting.
Stopping coasting mode
� Press the brake pedal or accelerator.
To use the engine braking effect and overrun fuel
cut-off again, all you need to do is tap the brake
pedal briefly.
You can improve your fuel economy and help to
reduce emissions by using a combination of the
coa sting mode (i.e. coasting with low fuel con-

on a longer stretch of road) and the
overrun fuel cut-off (i.e. using the engine brak­
ing effect with no fuel consumption on a shorter
stretch of road).
A WARNING
- If you are approaching an obstruction when
coasting mode is switched on, please re­
member that the vehicle will not slow down
as quickly as usual when you take your foot
off the accelerator -risk of accident!
- The vehicle can pick up speed if you are driv­
ing down a slope in coasting mode -risk of
accident!
- If other people are using your car, you
should draw their attention to the coasting
mode.
ijJ) Note
- Coasting mode is only available in efficien­
cy* mode (drive select*).
- The message Coasting mode only appears
when the current fuel consumption display
is selected. The gear is no longer displayed
when you are in coasting mode (e.g. E in­
stead of E6).
- The coasting mode is deactivated tempora­
rily on gradients of 15 % or greater.
Launch control programme
Applies to: vehicles with automatic gearbox
The launch control programme enables maxi­
mum acceleration.

and make sure your manner of driving and
accelerating the vehicle does not inconven­
ience or endanger other road users.
- Please note that the driven wheels may
start to spin when the sport mode is switch­
ed on, causing the vehicle to lose grip, in
particular on slippery or wet roads -danger
of skidding!
