General notes

The most important part of the dynamic handling package with sports mode is the adjustable suspension system. This automatically controls and adapts the suspension to the respective driving situation.

The calibration of the suspension depends on:
• your driving style
• the road surface conditions
• your individual selection; see the following description

If your vehicle is equipped with automatic transmission, the dynamic handling package with sports mode also includes steering wheel paddle shifters with a manual drive program.
