Transmission position display
The current transmission position is shown in the multifunction display.

1 Transmission position
The arrows in the transmission position
display show how and into which
transmission positions you can change
using the DIRECT SELECT lever.
If the transmission position display in the
multifunction display is not working, you
should pull away carefully to check whether
the desired transmission position is
engaged. Ideally, you should select
transmission position D and drive program
E (drive program C on AMG vehicles) or S.
Do not restrict the shift range.
