The S60 R with Geartronic has an S button
instead of a W button located at the gear
selector. The gearbox sports programme is
activated using the S button. An LED is lit in
the button to indicate active mode.
The S programme provides sportier charac-
teristics. It allows higher engine speed for the
gears while responding more quickly to
acceleration. During active driving, the use of
a lower gear is prioritised, leading to a
delayed upshift.
