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.
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.
