Transmission positions
Park position
Do not shift the transmission into
position P unless the
vehicle is stationary. The parking
lock should not be used as a brake
when parking. In addition to
engaging the parking lock, you
must always apply the parking
brake to secure the vehicle.
The SmartKey can only be removed if the transmission is in position P.
If the SmartKey is removed from the ignition lock, the selector lever is locked.
If the vehicle electronics are malfunctioning, the transmission may be locked in position P.
Have the vehicle electronics checked at a qualified specialist workshop, e.g. an authorized Mercedes-Benz Center, immediately.
Reverse gear
Only shift the transmission to R
when the vehicle is stationary.
Neutral
Do not shift the transmission to N
while driving. The transmission
could otherwise be damaged.
No power is transmitted from the engine to the drive wheels.
Releasing the brakes will allow you to move the vehicle freely, e.g. to push it or tow it.
If ESP® is deactivated or faulty:
only shift the transmission to position N if the vehicle is in danger of skidding, e.g. on icy roads.
Rolling in neutral N can damage the drive train.
Drive
The automatic transmission
changes gear automatically. All
forward gears are available.
