Switching on the manual drive program
The manual drive program is only available for AMG vehicles.
Manual drive program M is different from drive program S with regard to spontaneity, responsiveness and smoothness of gear changes.
Manual drive program M can be selected using the program selector button. In manual drive program M, you can change gear yourself using the steering wheel paddle shifters if the transmission is in position D.
The gear currently selected and engaged is shown in the multifunction display.
Press the program selector button
repeatedly until M appears in
the multifunction display.
