R - Reverse
The car must be stationary when shifting to position R.
N - Neutral
N is the neutral position. The engine can be started, but no gear is selected. Apply the parking brake
when the car is stationary with the gear selector in N.
NOTE: If the gear selector is in the Neutral position and the car has been at a standstill for at least 3
seconds (regardless of whether the engine is running or not), the gear selector will be locked in Neutral.
In order to move the gear selector to another position:
● Turn the ignition key to position II (if the engine is not already running)
● Depress the brake pedal
● Move the gear selector to the desired position
D - Drive
D is the normal driving position. The car automatically shifts between the various forward gears, based
on the level of acceleration and speed. The car must be at a standstill when shifting to position D from
position R
Manual shifting - Geartronic
The manual shifting mode (Geartronic) can be selected at any time, including while the car is moving.
● To access the (M)anual shifting position from (D)rive, move the gear selector to the right to M.
● To return to the (D)rive position from M, move the gear selector to the left.
