With the selector lever and the transmission mode switch (S16/5) it is possible to adapt the automatic sequence of the shift to particular operating conditions.

The shift range can in fact be changed in the forward gears while driving, however the electronic transmission control (ETC) prevents a shift at an unacceptably high engine speed.

In position "C" (comfort program) of the transmission mode switch (S16/5) a lower overall ratio and therefore a lower output torque is available when driving backwards and forwards. This allows the vehicle to move off more gently. In addition, the gears are not driven to maximum revs.

In position "M" (manual program) of the transmission mode switch (S16/5) all forward gears can be shifted directly by means of the selector lever (touch shifts to "+" or "-") or by operating the steering wheel gear shifter MINUS (S110/1) or steering wheel gear shifter PLUS (S111/1).

A shift is not carried out at an unacceptably high or low rpm.
