Operation Manual
192 Driving and operation
ActiveSelect (manual mode)
Move selector lever out of position D and
then forwards or backwards.
If a higher gear is selected at a speed that
is too slow or a lower gear is selected at a
speed that is too high, the gear will not be
changed. This prevents the revs from being
too low or too high.
If the engine speed is too slow, the
transmission automatically shifts down,
but not if the gear was selected below a
certain speed.
If a higher gear is selected below a certain
speed, the transmission does not shift
back.
No automatic shifting to a higher gear
takes place at high engine revs.
For safety reasons, kickdown is also
available in manual mode, see page 194.
The selected gear is displayed in the
transmission display, see page 184.
