permanent manual mode is initiated if the paddles are
used. To return to fully automatic mode, move the gear
selector back to transmission D.
When Dynamic mode is selected while in transmission
S, up-shifts are fully controlled by the driver. The
transmission will not automatically change up to the next
gear, even if the engine’s rev limit is reached.
A gear position indicator, in the Message center, glows
amber when an up-shift is required.
Deployable rear spoiler (DRS) See page 2, item 33
