■Gearshift
Gear shifting is only carried out at
the appropriate engine RPM and
vehicle speed.
■Short-term manual operation
In selector lever position D, operat-
ing a shift paddle causes the sys-
tem to switch to manual operation
temporarily.
The gearbox reverts to automatic
operation from manual operation
after a certain period of time of
moderate driving without accelera-
tion or gear shifts using the shift
paddles.
Changing to automatic operation is
possible as follows:
Pull and hold right shift paddle.
In addition to briefly pulling right
shift paddle, briefly pull left shift
paddle.
■Permanent manual operation
In selector lever position M, operat-
ing a shift paddle causes the sys-

manual operation (mode).Change up: pull right shift paddle
briefly.
Change down: pull left shift pad-
dle briefly.
Pull and hold left shift paddle to
shift to the lowest possible gear.

ter, see page 345.
When the ambient conditions are
dry, Launch Control permits opti-
mised acceleration on a road sur-
face that offers plenty of grip.
Use of Launch Control causes pre-
mature component wear, as the
function subjects the vehicle to very
high stresses and loads.
Do not use Launch Control when
running in, see page 266.
When starting with Launch Control,
do not turn the steering wheel.
Launch Control is available when
the engine is at operating tempera-
ture. The engine is at operating
temperature after an uninterrupted
journey of at least 10 km, approx. 6
miles.

used again. Launch Control adapts
to the ambient conditions when
used again.
To support driving stability, re-acti-
vate Vehicle Stability Control, VSC
as soon as possible.
An experienced driver may be able
to achieve better acceleration val-
ues in VSC OFF mode.The sport mode switch influences
the driving dynamics characteristics
of the vehicle.
The following systems are influ-
enced, for example:
Engine characteristics.
Automatic transmission.
Adaptive variable suspension.
Steering.
Display in the instrument cluster.

This chapter describes all standard,
country-specific and special equip-
ment available for the model series.
It may therefore describe equip-
ment and functions which are not

ple on account of the optional
equipment selected or the country
specification. This also applies to
safety-relevant functions and sys-
tems. Please comply with the rele-
vant laws and regulations when
using the corresponding functions
and systems.
The instrument cluster is a variable
