ECO drive mode
The Eco drive mode is a function designed to give the driver the opportunity to drive more eco-nomically and to help reduce fuel consumption.
When this mode is activated, the following cha- racteristics are modified:
• The automatic transmission's shifting points
• The engine management system and accel-erator pedal response
• Climate system settings: certain functionswill be temporarily reduced or deactivated
• Information is shown in an ECO gauge in theinstrument panel to help promote more eco-nomical driving
NOTE
When Eco is activated, several climate system parameters are changed and the function ofcertain current-consuming systems will bereduced. Some of these functions can be restarted manually but full functionality will not berestored until Eco is deactivated.
Selecting ECO modeWhen the engine is switched off, ECO mode is deactivated and must be reactivated each time the engine is started.

Start/Stop
Start/Stop is a function that temporarily switches off the engine when the vehicle is not moving,for instance in heavy traffic or at a traffic light, tohelp reduce fuel consumption. The engine startsagain automatically when the brake pedal isreleased.
Start/Stop is one of several fuel-conserving fea- tures that also help reduce emissions. This feature helps make it possible to drive more economically by allowing the engine to auto-stopin certain situations.

Using the Start/Stop function Start/Stop is a function that temporarily switches off the engine when the vehicle is not moving,for instance in heavy traffic or at a traffic light, tohelp reduce fuel consumption. The engine startsagain automatically when the brake pedal isreleased.
Start/Stop is available when the engine has been started. The instrument panel will indicate if thefunction is available/unavailable/active. All of the vehicle's normal systems such as light- ing, infotainment, etc., function normally when theengine has auto-stopped. However, certain func-tions, such as climate system blower speed orvery high infotainment system volume, will betemporarily reduced.
Auto-stopThe following conditions must be met for theengine to auto-stop:
• Stop the vehicle by applying the brakes andkeep the brake pedal depressed. The engine will auto-stop. If the COMFORT 5
or ECO driv-
ing modes are activated, the engine can auto-stop before the vehicle has come to astandstill.
If the
Adaptive cruise or Pilot Assist functions
are activated, the engine will auto-stop after

Shiftlock The automatic transmission's shiftlock feature helps prevent inadvertently moving the gearselector between different positions.
There are two different types of shiftlock: mechanical and automatic.
Mechanical shiftlock
The gear selector can be moved back and forth freely between
N and D. There is a mechanical
shiftlock for the other positions. To move the gear selector to between P, R , N
and D, press the button on the front of the gear
selector (see the illustration).
Automatic shiftlock
From Park – P
In order to move the gear selector from the P
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
From neutral – N
If the gear selector is in N and the vehicle has
been stationary for more than 3 seconds (regard- less of whether or not the engine is running), theshiftlock feature will lock the gear selector in thisposition. In order to move the gear selector from the N
position, the brake pedal must be depressed and the ignition must be in mode II.
Shiftlock override
If the vehicle cannot be driven (e.g., due to a dis- charged battery), the shiftlock feature has to beoverridden in order to move the gear selector

Park – P
Select P when the vehicle is parked or when the
starting the engine. The vehicle must be station- ary when P is selected.
In position P, the transmission is mechanically
locked. Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked.
NOTE
The gear selector must be in the P position
before the vehicle can be locked and the alarm set.
WARNING
Always apply the parking brake when the vehicle is parked, particularly when parking on a hill. The transmission's P mode may not be
able to keep the vehicle stationary if it is parked on an incline.
Reverse – R
The vehicle must be stationary before R can be
selected.
Neutral – N
No gear is selected and the engine can be started. Always apply the parking brake if thevehicle is not moving and the gear selector is in the N position. The ignition must be in mode
II and the brake
pedal must be depressed before the gear selec-tor can be moved from N.
Drive – D
D is the normal driving position and gear shifting
is fully automatic. The vehicle must be stationary when the gear selector is moved from R to D.
Manual shifting – M (shown on the
instrument panel)
Manual shifting can be selected at any time and engine braking will occur when the acceleratorpedal is released. To select, move the gear selector from D to the
side toward " ±". The current gear (1 - 8) will be
shown in the instrument panel.
• Press the gear selector forward toward "
+"
(plus) and release it to shift up one gear.
• Pull the gear selector rearward toward "
–"
(minus) and release it to shift down one gear.

.
For smooth shifting and engine performance, the transmission will shift down automatically if thevehicle's speed becomes too low for the selectedgear. Move the gear selector to the side toward D at
any time to resume automatic gear shifting.
Safety functionTo help avoid excessive rpm that might cause engine damage, the transmission control modulehas a down-shift protection feature that in somesituations may prevent a down-shift or kickdown. During kickdown, the transmission may shift down one or more gears, depending on theengine's rpm and will shift up again when max.rpm is reached for a specific gear.

INFOTAINMENT
* Option/accessory.399
The IBOC system is referred to as a "hybrid" since it is both analogue and digital. Duringhybrid operation, receivers still continue toreceive the analogue (non-digital) signal. HDRadio receivers incorporate both modes ofreception, where the receiver will automaticallyswitch to the analogue signal if the digital signalcannot be decoded or is lost by the receiver. When you have tuned to an HD Radio station, the
symbol will appear in the infotainment sys-
tem display. The symbol will be displayed in dif- ferent colors:
• Grayed-out symbol
: NoHD Radio broadcast
reception
• White symbol
: the radio is actively receiving
an HD broadcast
• Orange symbol
: the radio is receiving an
HD broadcast with digital sound
More information about HD Radio and IBOC canbe found on Ibiquity's website, www.hdradio.comand www.ibiquity.com.
Artist Experience ™A radio station's logo and album art can be dis-played. If a station opts to provide this informa-tion, it is broadcast once every 12 minutes, whichmeans that there may be a delay before thelogo/album art appear on the screen. The radiocan store 100 station logos so the next time theradio is tuned to the same station, the logo will be displayed immediately. Album art is synchedwith the artist that you are currently listening to.
iTunes taggingThis feature is common to both HD Radio and SiriusXM
®
Satellite radio *. See the section
"iTunes tagging" in the article "SiriusXM satellite radio settings" for more detailed information.
Ball game modeThis feature means that a main FM station (HD1)will broadcast live events, where the content ofthe programming is more important than soundquality, in analog mode only to help prevent thedelay between analog and digital broadcasting.The HD Radio symbol will be white during livebroadcasts and "Live" will be displayed next tothe symbol.
Benefits of digital broadcasting
• Better sound (FM sounds near CD qualityand AM as analogue FM).
• Some FM frequencies offer a greater num-ber of listening choices through “multicast-ing” (consisting of a frequency's main chan-nel and any sub-channels that may also beavailable on that particular frequency.)
• When receiving a digital signal there is nomultipath disturbance or hisses/pops/crack-ling due to outside influences.
How HD Radio
™ Technology
broadcasting works
HD Radio works similarly to conventional radioand broadcasts of this type are available in manyareas of the United States. However, there are afew key differences:
• Instead of transmitting one analogue signal,stations send out a bundled signal – bothanalogue and digital.
• An HD Radio receiver can receive both digi-tal and analogue broadcasts. Depending onthe terrain and location of the vehicle (whichwill influence the signal strength), thereceiver will determine which signal toreceive.
