Touchtronic Controls

[1] : Downshift Paddle
[2] : Upshift Paddle
Neutral can also be selected by pressing (N) Neutral on the
centre stack.
Pull back on either the upshift (+) or downshift (-) paddle to enter
Touchtronic mode. As the vehicle speed increases and decreases,
make upshifts and downshifts by pulling and releasing the upshift
or downshift paddle.
If no gearshift has been requested by pulling back on a paddle,
upshifts and downshifts will occur automatically (Drive mode
dependant ) if the engine speed rises or lowers to its maximum
1
or minimum operating limits.
If driving in a high gear, pull and hold the downshift paddle to
select the lowest available gear. For example, if in sixth gear then
second gear is selected.
When stationary, select Neutral by pulling back on both paddles
at the same time. When selecting Neutral from Park, the brake
pedal must be depressed.
When in touchtronic mode, pull back on the upshift paddle for
more than two seconds to move to auto drive mode.
The centre message centre shows the actual gear currently
selected R, D1, D2, etc and the target gear when a gearshift is in
progress (either 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, R or P).

Gear Shift Indicator

The centre message window shows the current gear selected with
an up arrow to indicate when a gear change should take place to
obtain better fuel economy. For example, when in third gear and
a higher gear needs selecting 3 ^ is shown in the centre message
window.
