L mode

WARNING: This page is about a different variant/trim than selected.

For maximum engine braking and power for climbing, activate the L mode by pressing the paddle shifter + (upshift switch) and the paddle shifter - (downshift switch) at the same time and hold them for about 5 seconds. The shift indicator displays an L while in this mode. The system will return to the automatic shift mode and the shift indicator display turns off when the paddle shifter + (upshift switch) and the paddle shifter - (downshift switch) are held at the same time for about 2 seconds or when the optional Mode switch is pressed.
