Driving tips
Kickdown
Use kickdown for maximum acceleration: ■ Depress the accelerator pedal beyond the pressure point.
The transmission shifts to a lower gear depending on the engine speed.
■ Ease off the accelerator pedal once the desired speed is reached.
The automatic transmission shifts back up.
Rocking the vehicle free
Shifting the transmission repeatedly between gears D and R may help to free the vehicle if it has become stuck in slush or snow. The vehicle's engine management restricts repeated shifting between gears up to a maximum speed of 5 mph (9 km/h). To shift back and forth between transmission positions D and R, move the selector lever up and down beyond the pressure point.
Towing a trailer
■ Drive in the middle of the engine speed range on uphill gradients.
■ Shift down to shift range 3 or 2 depending on the uphill or downhill gradient, even if cruise control, cruise control or DISTRONIC PLUS is activated.
